Hi, could anybody help me? The backend (8.0) complains about the syntax of the following command. (This row is from a dump created by pgadmin 1.4, using pg_dump.exe v8.0.0.5017) The syntax error is located at the first 'DE' after the stdin;. What's the problem?

But the data was dumped with a windows version pg_dump. Or do know wrong that pgadmin3 uses a boundled version of pg_dump (installed on the client)? BTW after running unix2dos (on cygwin) the error message is the same... :( -- Csaba Együd -----Original Message----- From: Jaime Casanova [mailto:systemguards@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, November 25, 2005 5:50 PM To: Együd Csaba Cc: pgsql-general@postgresql.org Subject: Re: [GENERAL] Syntax Error in COPY On 11/25/05, Együd Csaba <csegyud@vnet.hu> wrote: > Source machine: FC4 + Pg8.0.3 (dumped out from) Target machine: WinXP > SP2. + Pg8.0.0 (trying to dump in) The maessage : "ERROR: syntax > error at or near "DE" at character 144" > ok. in FC4 execute unix2dos dumped_file.sql then try again to load the data in windows -- regards, Jaime Casanova (DBA: DataBase Aniquilator ;) -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

Hi, it seems to be some kind of windows/pgadmin error (?), because running
the dump on the linux server it was ok.
I was able to work around the problem, but...
Thank you Jaime.

can you run a pg_dump (in FC4) and try with that dump? maybe it's some kind
of problem with pg_dump of pgadmin3 (i don't know, just guessing :)...
until someone get with a better idea, it's worth to try ;)
