Fw: i am getting error when i am using copy command

Penchal,
 
The ERROR u mentioned in your earlier email describes itself . It says your
"could not open file ‘/tmp/penchal.out’  for writing: no such file or directory.."
 
I used the same command you used :-

Copy <table_name> to ‘/tmp/filename.out’

 
So i suggest that u check if ur able to write/read files in /tmp folder..
also you can use /home/postgres folder ?.
 
NOTE: please do not send personnel email . email to group .

Penchal,

 

 

Is /tmp folder present and is the postgres user having read/write file permissions in /tmp folder.

I was successfully able to copy a table to a file in /tmp folder on my machine .

3)       Then I inserted some values into this table………

4)     Insert into penchal values(1,’reddy’,2);

5)       Select * from penchal ; I used this statement to display the values in a table

6)       Finaly I want to use copy ….

7)       But I am getting error when I am using this copy statement

 

Copy penchal to ‘/tmp/penchal.out’

When I am using this statement I am getting error is :   could not open file ‘/tmp/penchal.out’  for writing: no such file or directory..
