Hi list !
I already posted this as "COPY FROM encoding error", but I have
been doing some more tests since then.
I'm trying to export data from MS SQL Server to PostgreSQL.
The tables are quite big (>20M rows), so a CSV export and a "COPY
FROM3 import seems to be the only reasonable solution.
I believe you might have more luck working without files altogether.
Use an ETL tool like kettle or even DTS with the pgsql ODBC driver.
That's exactly what those tools are for.
You still have to get the encodings right, though.
I suggest unicode for pgsql, but only you know how the MSSQL database
is encoded.
I think I'll go this way... No other choice, actually !
The MSSQL database is in SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_Cl_AS.
I don't really understand what this is. It supports the euro
symbol, so it is probably not pure LATIN1, right ?
