Thanks Adrian , i think it works but still facing problem while loading Mysql ( MEDIUMBLOB ) column into PG ( BYTEA ) column :

test=# \encoding LATIN1;
test=# copy jobs from '/tmp/test.csv' with DELIMITER AS  ','  QUOTE '"' NULL AS '\N' ESCAPE E'\\' CSV;
ERROR:  invalid input syntax for type bytea
CONTEXT:  COPY jobs, line 259, column wf_instance: "\0$0000000-120805203721153-oozie-oozi-W\0\0)<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><..."
test=#

wf_instance is single mediumblob column in the table.

Cheers

Hi,

Today i  need to load some mysql ( 5.1.58 ) tables dump in postgresql (
PG 9.2 ). I loaded few tables successfully but while loading one table i
am facing below error :

test=# copy jobs from '/tmp/test.csv' with DELIMITER AS  ',' QUOTE '"'
NULL AS '\N' ESCAPE E'\\' CSV;
ERROR:  invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xc7 0x3c
CONTEXT:  COPY jobs, line 259


After some research , i think it is failing because Mysql table has
character set latin1 format and PG9.2 has by deafult UTF-8 format. But
don't understand how other tables got successfully loaded.

Probably because ASCII, Latin1 and UTF8 share the first 127 characters and your other tables did not have data that used characters above the first 127.


Below link
tells to use iconv :

http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=942765 , but still the same error.

Might try

test=#\encoding LATIN1

and then your copy command

or

use the ENCODING parameter to COPY:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/interactive/sql-copy.html


My doubt is in this table there is one MEDIUMBLOB that i used as BYTEA
in postgresql. Is it was due to that or anyone fixed this issue earlier
, plz update.


Thanks
