Hi When using the config PG_USE_COPY option the copy command does not include the destination FID in the field list. In my case the destination FID field is a primary key with a not null constraint, so the copy fails.
e.g. ogr2ogr --config PG_USE_COPY TRUE -append -preserve_fid -f "PostgreSQL" "PG:host=localhost user=myuser dbname=my_db" test.vrt -lco GEOMETRY_NAME=shape -nln test3 -select id,data1,data2 when the destination table looks like this: CREATE TABLE test3 ( id integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, data1 TEXT, data2 TEXT, shape geometry ); However when I don't use the PG_USE_COPY option and the driver uses plain SQL inserts it works e.g: ogr2ogr -append -preserve_fid -f "PostgreSQL" "PG:host=localhost user=myuser dbname=my_db" test.vrt -lco GEOMETRY_NAME=shape -nln test3 -select id,data1,data2 Looking down into this it seems it has to do with the layers FieldDefn not including the FID in its list, and the OGRPGTableLayer::BuildCopyFields() method only adding the FID to the copy field list if it's in the layer FieldDefn. While the CreateFeatureViaInsert() method only checks if the FID field is set for the layer and the feature itself has the FID data set. Is there a specific reason for the OGRPGTableLayer::BuildCopyFields (and CreateFeatureViaCopy) checking that the field must exist in the layer FieldDefn before adding it to the copy field list? Or is this a bug?
