Re: pgAdmin problem - invalid page fault when migrating

In case you don't get any higher quality help...

I don't know how you are attempting to effect this
migration.  Assuming you are using something which
generates scripts from your Access database to be
run in your postgres database, what you ought to
do is edit those scripts to remove the extra
quotation marks.  You only ought to have quotation
marks around table names and column names (and you
only need those since you evidently are including
spaces in those names).

Subject: [NOVICE] pgAdmin problem - invalid page
fault when migrating


It happens when I try to migrate an Access97 table
with 3000 rows
and 10 to 20 columns. Unfortunately, I can't save
the logfile
because the program has crashed. I did, however,
manage to take
a screenshot and type the last bit of the logfile
out (ie what was
happening when this crashed, munged a bit to take
the (likely)
confidential table name out):

Creating table: (table name)
  CREATE TABLE "(table name)" ("2000 CONTACT
oat8",
"LOW#2" "float8", "YEAR EST" "text", "DESCRIPTION
OF BUS"
"text", "

So apparently it's failing on the name of a column
header, if I read
this right. Could this be caused by:

...format problems in the Access97 database?
...insufficient resources? I'm running pgAdmin on
a Celeron 366
with 64 MB RAM.
...huge table?
...network glitch?

Help is, of course, appreciated. This one has me
beat, and I'm
reasonably certain that it's not an "idiot
mistake" like my last one.

I have downloaded and installed the latest
versions of the packages
named on the pgAdmin homepage.

Here's the error Windows spat out, in case you
were wondering:
