I have a file with 5500 rows formated as 'INSERT INTO <table> (column_names) VALUES <values>;' that I thought I could read using psql from the command line. However, the syntax, 'psql <database_name> < filename.sql' throws an error at the beginning of the first INSERT statement. In the INSERT manual page I see no example or other insight on adding a large number of rows to a table from an external .sql file. Please point me to the reference on how to do this.
