Bonjour (you speak french ? ;-) )
Thanks for your response,
Indeed I confused two commands copy (libpq) and \copy (psql).
I have try two methods for charge my result.res in my table.
the first method :
$res = $db->exec(" COPY temp FROM "full path\result.res ");
Unfortunately I did not succeed in using this method, I had always an
error ( While placing postgres in debug mode ).
DEBUG: StartTransactionCommand
DEBUG: query: COPY temp FROM '-- my path -- /result.res'
DEBUG: parse tree: { QUERY :command 5 :utility ? :resultRelation 0 :into <> :isPortal false :isBinary false :isTemp
false:hasAggs false :hasSubLinks false :rtable <> :jointree <> :rowMarks () :targetList <> :groupClause <> :havingQual
<>:distinctClause <> :sortClause <> :limitOffset <> :limitCount <> :setOperations <> :resultRelations ()}
DEBUG: ProcessUtility: COPY temp FROM '-- my path -- /result.res'
ERROR: You must have Postgres superuser privilege to do a COPY directly to or from a file. Anyone can COPY to stdout
orfrom stdin. Psql's \copy command also works for anyone.
....
I don't understand why this error because the superuser postgres (who had create for launch the server) have the
privilege
for access and read this file.
The second method :
$res = $db->exec('COPY temp FROM stdin');
open (FIC,'<result.res');
while (<FIC>) {
$db->putline($_);
}
$db->putline("\\.\n");
close(FIC);
print $res->resultStatus;
This method works with success, but i have some questions.
- print $res->resultStatus; print PGRES_COPY_IN
But i don't kown if the action of copy achieve its goal or no. I post this question because i has tested this case
after insert an row error on file and the response had the same.
Documentation indicates that one would have to be inserted a command $res = $db->endcopy for synchronize the copy
instruction. But when i use this instruction at end of my code., the prog perl blocks itself and if i kill, the
operationof copy
fails on postgres.
If i omit this instruction the process works fine. Must I use or not this instruction ?
