Thanks for your mail!
Remember to cc: the mailing list too. Just hit "reply to all".
Oh, and perhaps don't top-quote. It makes it difficult for others to
follow the message.
1. Yes, the 5 and other text are at line 2 (a new line). I tried to put
the whole command on the first line and execute it but I get same error:
ERROR: syntax error at or near "1"
LINE 1: COPY artikkel (id, tittel, tekst) FROM stdin 1 test test;
No, the data needs to start on the line below COPY, but your first email
had a blank line there. Your message had:
Line 1: COPY artikkel (id, tittel, tekst) FROM stdin;
Line 2: (blank)
Line 3: 5 Slitasje og vedlikehold PRAKTISKE OPPLYSNINGER
What you want is something like:
COPY artikkel (id, tittel, tekst) FROM stdin;
1<tab>Title one<tab>Some text
2<tab>Title two<tab>Some text
\.
Where the <tab> marks are real tabs.
I have also separated the 1 and the "test-text" with tab. Is the syntax
for the line 1 correct? I have read some about using DELIMITER. Do you
have a suggestion how a can use this in the command?
2. Yes I have opened the dump file on in a windows system and copy+paste
it into the phppgadmin web interface.
Hmm - reading the phppgadmin documentation, the FAQ says the following:
"Only uploaded SQL scripts can contain COPY commands and for this to
work, you must have PHP 4.2 or higher."
So - it looks like you should save the COPY script to a text-file and
upload it. I don't know how you do that, but it should be in the manual.
