Description:

Hi,
I encountered an error when I was trying to copy a csv file into a table
created in a database inside the server. The code I used is :

Copy Customer from 'C:\\Users\\okari\\Customer.csv' delimiter ',' csv
header;

and the error that resulted is given below.

ERROR:  could not open file "C:\\Users\\okari\\Customer.csv" for reading:
Permission denied
HINT:  COPY FROM instructs the PostgreSQL server process to read a file. You
may want a client-side facility such as psql's \copy.
SQL state: 42501

I would appreciate some help with this.

Thanks
OK
