Thread: Reading from Mysql & writting in PGsql

Dears,I need to read 1 field with select command from mysql.Then Write it
to pgsql.
Please guide me.....

You will have to export from mysql and then insert into postgresql.  If you
are using postgresql 8 or above, you can use dbi-link
(http://pgfoundry.org/projects/dbi-link/) to set up a view in your
postgresql for the table in mysql and select directly from it.

If you need to do this directly, look into dbi-link.

http://pgfoundry.org/projects/dbi-link/

There are conversion tools in contrib: my2pg.pl and mysql2pgsql, and
of course you can use the database-independent access in your favorite
scripting language (DBI.pm in perl, for example) to attach to both
databases, then stream from one to the other.

HTH :)
