I'm getting really frustrated, I can't get a simple COPY command to work. I've tried running psql and both the postgres user and the owner of the database with the same error.
psql -U postgres -d database1
database1=# BEGIN; BEGIN database1=# TRUNCATE TABLE grades; TRUNCATE TABLE database1=# COPY grades FROM grades_csv_file; ERROR: syntax error at or near grades_csv_file
It won't let me enter the full path to the csv file and if I run psql from the directory where the csv file is located, it stilll won't accept the name of the csv file. So how do you specify the name of the csv file?
