Therefore I would like to import csv tables into that database. However, I get: ERROR: missing data for column "year" CONTEXT: COPY coaches, line 1:

Postgresql Copy Command

""coachid";"year";"yr_order";"firstname";"lastname";"season_win";"season_loss";"playoff_win";"playoff..." with command: \copy coaches FROM '/Users/Desktop/Database/NBAPostGres/DataOriginal/coaches_data.csv' DELIMITER ',' CSV; The current table has no missings. So my questions are: What did I wrong and if using a table with missing values? How to import such table or handle such structure generally(also in respect to missing values)?

I adjusted it but get ERROR: invalid input syntax for integer: "year" CONTEXT: COPY coaches, line

After removing double quotes from all NULL values and switching to my superuser, I could copy just fine. Apparently my error was my use of stdin as a regular user. I knew I couldn't use COPY pwt61_test FROM '/home/emf/pwt61_test' # (that is, FROM 'file') as a regular user and from what I read I extra data after thought stdin was to be used when you are not a superuser, as in: COPY pwt61_test FROM stdin WITH DELIMITER ',' CSV QUOTE AS '"' NULL AS 'na'; Enter data to be copied followed by a newline. End with a backslash and a period on a line by itself. >> /home/emf/pwt61_test.csv >> \. ERROR: missing data for column "isocode" CONTEXT: COPY pwt61_oecd, line 1: "/home/emf/pwt61_test.csv" It wasn't until I saw Tom Lane's post that I realized that I was using stdin wrong. Now its obvious why I was getting the error I was getting. It was expecting to see data, not a file. Apparently, you can't use the COPY command to copy a whole file without being a super user? I didn't understand this from the errors I received. I apologize to everyone. I didn't mean to waste your time. -Eric On 4/18/06, Florian Reiser wrote: > Hello Matthew, > > I've noticed that the numeric fields are quoted with ". > Try it after you removed the " from the numeric fields. > > Is it now working? > > With kind regards > > Florian Reiser > > -- > http://www.ra-bc.de >
