Thanks Steve. YES! I changed it to transaction pooling and now it works.

Another problem through.

I need to COPY a huge text file into a table, with about 350 million
lines in the file (i.e., 350 million rows in the table).

While copying, some lines do not have data. They are empty values.

How can I specify in COPY command that if data is not found, it should
be ignored? In my temp table definition, I set this column as "NULL"
anyway, so it should be ok if this column was left empty!

What can I do in my COPY command to circumvent this?

Thanks.
