I'm trying to run this piece of code from Powershell and it just sits there and never comes back. There are only 131 records in the csv.$connectionString = "Host=$pgServer;Database=$pgDatabase;Username=$pgUser;Password=$pgPassword"$copyCommand = "\COPY $pgTable FROM '$csvPath' DELIMITER ',' CSV HEADER;"psql -h $pgServer -d $pgDatabase -U $pgUser -c $copyCommandhow can I debug this?
I would start by adding -a and -e after "psql".
IIRC Powershell is windows, and in windows shell do not pass command words preparsed as in *ix to the executable, but a single command line with the executable must parse. Given the amount of quoting, -a and -e will let you see the commands are properly sent, and if it is trying to read something what it is.
I will also try to substitute the -c with a pipe. If it heals, it is probably a quoting issue.
Also, I just caught Ron's message, and psql might be waiting for a password.
