I was following this - http://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/19679/how-to-set-postgresql-database-to-see-date-as-mdy-permanently. This actually lead me to those combinations that I had already tried. Now I have another problem: prac_db=# SET datestyle = "SQL, DMY"; SET prac_db=# copy orders from '/home/arup/postgresql/order.csv' with CSV DELIMITER ',' HEADER ; ERROR: time zone displacement out of range: " 9-25 AM" CONTEXT: COPY orders, line 2, column delivery_time: " 9-25 AM" prac_db=# ======= ERROR: time zone displacement out of range: " 9-25 AM" ======= How to fix this ? prac_db=# \d orders ; Table "public.orders" Column | Type | Modifiers ------------------+------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------- order_id | integer | not null default nextval('orders_order_id_seq'::regclass) delivery_address | text | order_date | date | delivery_date | date | status | text | delivery_time | time without time zone | courier_id | integer | Indexes: "orders_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (order_id) \d: extra argument ";" ignored prac_db=# -- ================ Regards, Arup Rakshit ================ Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it. --Brian Kernighan -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
