If you really need such a thing, I'd suggest writing a plperlu or pltclu or plpythonu (according to taste) wrapper around system(). But do you really need it, or is this just cruft left over in your database from some playing around? If the latter, just ignore this error. > ERROR: value too long for type character varying(12) > CONTEXT: COPY stulist, line 46803, column STU_CNAME: "é·?å?¥(9debacdd)ç ?" This one looks like it might be an encoding issue. What database encoding did you have in the old server, and did you reproduce it in the new one? [ ... counts characters ... ] although frankly that looks like it'd be more than 12 characters by *anyone's* accounting. Peculiar. Maybe the dump file got mangled while being copied over? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
