Hi, I have a problem with psql and CSV.

Error:  extra data after expected last column

CONTEXT:  COPY Bayern, row 1: "48.455555555555556;11.800833333333333;Anglberg/Amper;Industrial plant;722;220;220;2133;0;0;Undefined..."

I have a table (Bayern) with all columns in the right format. There is a column-value which has a ‘/’ in the string (Anglberg/Amper). I think that ‘/’ is taken for a delimeter, since when I replace / with ‘white space‘ it works.

I use ‘;’ as delimeter. I have UTF-8 encoding in the db. Is there a way around this or do I have to go through all csv files and change ‘/’ to white space?


What if you escape the slashes with backslashes?
