COPY sqllearning.superstore_people
TO 'C:\Windows\Temp\sup_people.csv'
WITH DELIMITER ','
CSV HEADER;
When I open the csv file either in notepad or excel I get an Error that says:
Excel cannot access 'file.csv', the document may be read only or encrypted.
file.csv cannot be accessed. the file may be corrupted, located on a server that is not responding, or read- only
Any tips on how to resolve this would be appreciated. Thanks!
I faced similar issue before. I solved it by checking and setting ownership of the entire folder and all its subfolders and files for current user (in Windows - right click on the folder - properties - security). Maybe it would help for you also

I am trying to copy a file from my Office Remote server as CSV output on my local machine (windows). I cannot use the export/import dialog. It shows the following error
Utility file not found. Please correct the Binary Path in the Preferences dialog
The same command works fine for local server files meaning I have already edited the binary path in the Configuration setting.
The COPY command gives the following error
ERROR: relative path not allowed for COPY to file SQL state: 42602
\Copy doesn't work either.
Can anyone suggest me a solution for this?
Good afternoon,
You can generate the CSV file like this:
copy(select * from schema.table) TO '/tmp/file.csv' WITH CSV DELIMITER '|';
Hi I'm getting the following error....
GET METADATA works fine if I do WildCard like ASN to find list of files when I do for loop and pass each file name in the COPY Activity (Source)
ErrorCode=SftpPathNotFound,'Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common.Shared.HybridDeliveryException,Message=Can't find SFTP path '/Receive/INX_XXXXXXXX_ASN_20210728012200817116546932367669276.xml'. Please check if the path exists. If the path you configured does not start with '/', note it is a relative path under the given user's default folder ''.,Source=Microsoft.DataTransfer.ClientLibrary.SftpConnector,''Type=Renci.SshNet.Common.SftpPathNotFoundException,Message=/opt/apps/uprd1bpn1/bpfs2/2021/July/0209/04/22/25565817aec33de9cnode2_WF128489406.dat (No such file or directory),Source=Renci.SshNet,'
Any ideas?
I was facing the same issue described above, the only difference was the type of my source file, .txt.
In my case the error message was misleading, the actual error message was getting hidden by the 'chunking' option. If you pay attention to the source tab of the copy activity, by default it is set to use 'chunking', which transfers your data at an increased speed.
By disabling chunking, I could notice the error was actually in a particular line of the file, then fixing the file, fixed the problem.
1. Check if "Copy behavior" on the sink side is marked as "None".
2. Check if you have permissions for uploading the files.
3. For wildcardFileName Dynamic content of fileName should be replaced with asterisk (*).
E.g. If 20210728012200817116546932367669276 is dynamic content in your filename
then wildcardFileName for INX_XXXXXXXX_ASN_20210728012200817116546932367669276.xml should be INX_XXXXXXXX_ASN_*.xml

Many PDFs from different courses appear to have been corrupted or something. We first noticed when viewing to view in CHrome and got the error "Failed to load PDF document." In Internet Explorer the page just shows up empty.
When viewing the file in the "Updating file in" area, it says the following: "Either the file does not exist or there is a permission problem." It has a file size, but when I click on Download, the file is 0 kb.
Where are the files saved? Why are they corrupted?
Update: I've narrowed it down to that the /moodledate/filedir lost all the references. The folders are there as well as the files. Is there any way to fix this without having to reupload all PDFs?
I am on version 3.6.3 on Windows
The content/path hash is stored in the mdl_files table - maybe have a look in there to see if you can match up the files. The hash should match the folder/file name.
SELECT *
FROM mdl_files
WHERE filename LIKE '%pdf%'
OR mimetype LIKE '%pdf%'
OR source LIKE '%pdf%'
Also, check the file permissions. I don't use Windows, so not sure how it works on there. But on Linux, the web server should have access to the data folder.
Something like:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /pathto/moodledata/
sudo chmod -R 02777 /pathto/moodledata/

I'm getting this error:
ERROR: syntax error at or near "\"
LINE 1: \COPY "Staging_Budget" FROM 'C:\Users\My.Name\Desktop\RD - F...
^
********** Error **********
when I try to execute this simple command:
\COPY "Staging_Budget" FROM 'C:\Users\My.Name\Desktop\RD - Facilities Management (001321).csv';
Can anyone tell me why that is?
Also, can anyone tell me why none of the examples online have the drive (C:) or the file type (.csv) listed in the filepath like I do?
Postgres version is 9.5 and my OS is Windows 7.
Thank you!
UPDATED:
I'm trying to run this statement instead:
COPY "Staging_Budget" FROM STDIN 'C:\Program Files (x86)\PostgreSQL\9.5\data\csv\RD - Facilities Management (001321).csv';
I read here that I needed to move the CSV file to the postgres CSV file directory. I didn't have one, so I created it in the filepath in the statement above. Now I get this error message:
ERROR: syntax error at or near "'C:\Program Files (x86)\PostgreSQL\9.5\data\csv\RD - Facilities Management (001321).csv'"
LINE 1: COPY "Staging_Budget" FROM STDIN 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Pos...

I don't understand why postgres doesn't like the apostrophe when it's given in every example I've found online and in the reference guide.
The problem is that you can either COPY "Staging_Budget" FROM STDIN or COPY "Staging_Budget" FROM 'C:\etc', but not both. Since you're on Windows, you can ignore everything people are saying about cat. You don't want to copy from STDIN, you want to copy from a file.
Also \copy and COPY are not the same thing. In your case it looks like you want COPY (no backslash), which is the source of your original error.
Note that you can only use 'COPY .. FROM' by referencing an external file whenever you're in the server. I mean, the file must be accessible to the postmaster instance.
One technique I always apply in Linux is 'COPY .. FROM STDIN', by issuing a cat before psql.
Take a look at the reference guide:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-copy.html
I was able to get this statement to work:
COPY "Staging_Budget" FROM 'C:\Program Files (x86)\PostgreSQL\9.5\data\csv\RD - Facilities Management (001321).csv' (DELIMITER ',');
I guess postgres had a problem with the apostrophe used with STDIN? Also, having the CSV file in a folder called CSV within the Data folder was needed. Lastly, I needed to make sure that "(DELIMITER ',')" was at the end of the statement - even though the reference guide says that a ',' is the default when using CSV files...I'm not sure why I had to explicitly state it as the delimiter.
Hallo everyone once again,
I did various searches but couldn't gind a suitable/applicable answer to the simple problem below:
On pgAdminIII (Windows 7 64-bit) I am running the following command using SQL editor:
COPY public.Raw20120113 FROM 'D:\my\path\to\Raw CSV Data\13_01_2012.csv';
I tried many different variations for the path name and verified the path, but I keep getting:
ERROR: could not open file "D:\my\path\to\Raw CSV Data\13_01_2012.csv" for reading: No such file or directory
Any suggestions why this happens?
Thank you all in advance
Petros
UPDATE!!
After some tests I came to the following conclusion: The reason I am getting this error is that the path includes some Greek characters. So, while Windows uses codepage 1253, the console is using 727 and this whole thing is causing the confusion. So, some questions arise, you may answer them if you like or prompt me to other questions?
1) How can I permanently change the codepageof the console?
2) How can I define the codepage is SQL editor?
Thank you again, and sorry if the place to post the question was inappropriate!
Try DIR "D:\my\path\to\Raw CSV Data\13_01_2012.csv" from command line and see if it works - just to ensure that you got the directory, file name, extension etc correct.
The problem is that COPY command runs on server so it takes the path to the file from the server's scope.
To use local file to import you need to use \COPY command. This takes local path to the file into account and loads it correctly.
