Hi list !
I am trying to migrate a database from MSSQL to PostgreSQL.
I created the table in PostgreSQL, and I exported the data
as CSV from MSSQL's Enterprise Manager.
In the "Export Data" Wizard, I chose the option to export as
UNICODE.
In PostgreSQL, I try to load the data using :
COPY mytable (col1, col2, col3)
FROM 'mytable.csv' CSV;
But I receive this error after some time :
ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xff
État SQL :22021
Astuce : This error can also happen if the byte sequence
does not match the encoding expected by the server, which is
controlled by "client_encoding".
Contexte : COPY mytable, line 592680
I think that the encoding is OK because more than 500.000
lines are copied without problem, so there might be just one
problematic character here.
How can I solve this problem ?
Thanks a lot !
