Hi,
Today i need to load some mysql ( 5.1.58 ) tables dump in postgresql (
PG 9.2 ). I loaded few tables successfully but while loading one table i
am facing below error :
test=# copy jobs from '/tmp/test.csv' with DELIMITER AS ',' QUOTE '"'
NULL AS '\N' ESCAPE E'\\' CSV;
ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xc7 0x3c
CONTEXT: COPY jobs, line 259
After some research , i think it is failing because Mysql table has
character set latin1 format and PG9.2 has by deafult UTF-8 format. But
don't understand how other tables got successfully loaded.
Probably because ASCII, Latin1 and UTF8 share the first 127 characters
and your other tables did not have data that used characters above the
first 127.
Below link
tells to use iconv :
http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=942765 , but still the same error.
Might try
test=#\encoding LATIN1
and then your copy command
or
use the ENCODING parameter to COPY:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/interactive/sql-copy.html
My doubt is in this table there is one MEDIUMBLOB that i used as BYTEA
in postgresql. Is it was due to that or anyone fixed this issue earlier
, plz update.
Thanks
