Hi Chris,

Goal was to get postgre to execute/import an sql dump file, ie not to write import-export functionality myself. In the end, I used piping, something like this:

system("type $filename | \"C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\bin\psql.exe\" -h localhost -p 5432 X6tmp \"postgres\"");

  But thanx anyway :)

Boban.

or am I missing something here?


You might be better of not doing this with php.

Create the dump on the first machine.
Copy the dump (scp, rsync, copy via samba-mounted drive, whatever)
import it

It depends what your end goal is.
