Hi Chris, Goal was to get postgre to execute/import an sql dump file, ie not to write import-export functionality myself. In the end, I used piping, something like this: system("type $filename | \"C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\bin\psql.exe\" -h localhost -p 5432 X6tmp \"postgres\""); But thanx anyway :) Boban. chris smith wrote:
pg_connect($connection_string); pg_query("drop schema public"); .... import data .... or am I missing something here? You might be better of not doing this with php. Create the dump on the first machine. Copy the dump (scp, rsync, copy via samba-mounted drive, whatever) import it It depends what your end goal is.
