Hi Tom,
It is odd that there was no description in the Failed error code:1 in pgAdmin, suggesting mismatch between how the column needs to be defined so SQl can import it. The psql error description on command line on Mac terminal was detailed, to the point, and helpful in troubleshooting it.
Thanks for your timely reply and help in troubleshooting. My PostgreSQL tables are loading all CSV files now, my python code in Flask is reading and converting data from SQL using SQLAlchemy with no errors, and my front end is showing the data. All si good now.
Best Regards to you.

Hm. Sure looks like Postgres thinks the file is empty.
That "CSV HEADER" option would silently eat the first line, so I'm
wondering if the data looks like it's a single line to COPY,
ie maybe there is something funny about the newlines in your file.
You could check this theory easily by leaving off "CSV HEADER"
and seeing if the results change.
