Hi, I'm passing rows from SAS to PostgreSQL (I assign a libname and use a PROC APPEND). This works fine with smaller tables (~below 1 million rows). However, as tables get larger I receive the following error messages: "ERROR: CLI describe error: Out of memory while reading tuples.; No query has been executed with that handle" and "GLOBAL SYSDBMSG POSTGRES: Out of memory while reading tuples.; No query has been executed with that handle GLOBAL SYSDBRC HY000" I've tried to change memory settings on the PostgreSQL server, but can't solve the problem. As far as I could understand—I'm new to PostgreSQL ;)—it seems that PostgreSQL want to somehow read information on the whole table before processing it and this behavior could eventually be switched off, but I might be wrong here. FYI: - I run SAS 9.4 on a windows machine. - I run PostgreSQL server on a MAC: PostgreSQL 9.3.5 on x86_64-apple-darwin12.5.0, compiled by Apple LLVM version 5.1, 64-bit I've Pgadmin 1.18.1 installed. Any help would be much appreciated!! THANKS! PS: For several reasons, I cannot use the bulkload feature in SAS for this job.
That error is coming from SAS, not PG. SAS must have pretty bad documentation because when I google "GLOBAL SYSDBRC HY000" there is pretty much nothing. (Also, I've never used, or even heard of SAS. At first I thought you meant serial attached scsi) Does SAS support a cursor of some kind? -Andy -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
