Hi,I want to import excel file to postgresql 9.5 but when run the query , got error :extra data after last expected columnMac OS1) downloaded excel file , open with LibreOffice, saved as CSV, UTF-8 (attachment).2) renamed and moved the file under /Users/<mylogin>/Library/Application Support/Postgres/var-9.5
I'm somewhat surprised the server was able to resolve "test.csv" to above path...
3) created an empty table called mytable
Pertinent also to your subsequent question - I'm not sure where you expect to place import the data to if the table you've created has no columns...
4) ran the following command:
query ran under PSequel:
Its nice to use actual names, and not phonetic spellings, when writing.
i.e., psql
COPY mytable
FROM 'test.csv'
Do I have to create columns inside mytable ? I also tried "Freeze header and footer" before converting to CSV , same error.
What am I missing here?
Try:
COPY mytable FROm 'test.csv' WITH (FORMAT csv);
Then read the following while paying special attention to what the defaults are:
PostgreSQL doesn't try to figure things out on its own - you have to tell it what format your data is in.
