[gdal-dev] ogr2ogr VPF->postgis

[Malm Paul]

I saw that i should use FWTOOLS to get the postgres driver and then I tried this without any success:
ogr2ogr -f "PostgreSQL" PG:"host=localhost dbname=testgis user=cvfc PG:passwd=pwd" gltp:/vrf/test/vmap/v0eur_5/vmaplv0/eurnasia -lco OVERWRITE=yes -nln polbndl_bnd 'polbndl at bnd(*)_line'<mailto:'polbndl at bnd(*)_line'>

ERROR 1: PQconnectdb failed.
invalid connection option "PG:passwd"

ERROR 1: PostgreSQL driver doesn't currently support database creation.
Please create database with the `createdb' command.
PostgreSQL driver failed to create PG:host=localhost dbname=testgis user=postgres PG:passwd=postgrespwd

Kind regards,
Paul

slashes are incorrect, e.g.


gltp:[//<hostname>]/<driver_name>/<dataset_name>:<layer_name>:<family>

Hi!
I'm trying to read in VPF data to my postgreSQL/PostGis database with ogr2ogr.exe in WinXP

The lht file is placed in c:\test\vmap\v0eur_5\vmaplv0\eurnasia
The database is called testgis

This is what I typed in on the command prompt:
ogr2ogr -f PostgreSQL PG:"dbname='testgis' user='cvfc' passwd='pwd'" gltp:\vrf\test\vmap\v0eur_5\vmaplv0\eurnasia -lco OVERWRITE=yes -nln polbndl_bnd 'polbndl at bnd(*)_line'

This is what I got:
FAILURE:
Unable to open datasource `gltp:\vrftest\vmap\v0eur_5\vmaplv0\eurnasia' with the following drivers.
 -> ESRI Shapefile
 -> MapInfo File
 -> UK .NTF
 -> SDTS
 -> TIGER
 -> S57
 -> DGN
 -> VRT
 -> REC
 -> Memory
 -> BNA
 -> CSV
 -> GML
 -> GPX
 -> KML
 -> GeoJSON
 -> GMT
 -> ODBC
 -> PGeo
 -> AVCBin

What have I missed?

Is it possible to load all featuretypes in a Postgis database at once?

Kind regards,
Paul_______________________________________________
