[gdal-dev] Problems loading swedish climate data to PostGIS

Hi all

Eli, you are quite right. Typo of mine.

thiemo @ thiemos-toshi /mnt/schweden % ogr2ogr test.shp SCID_v4.0.gdb  
HBVSv_intrans_HQloc100_rcp85_ensembleMean_diffPerc 2>/dev/null

Does work with me too, sort of. As you can see, I suppressed error  
output. Without it, I get flooded with warnings:

Warning 1: Value 524332509.438000023 of field AREA of feature 4961 not  
successfully written. Possibly due to too larger number with respect  
to field width
More than 1000 errors or warnings have been reported. No more will be  
reported from now.

It puzzles me, however, that if I explicitly give the output format,  
it fails miserably.

thiemo @ thiemos-toshi /mnt/schweden % ogr2ogr –f "ESRI Shapefile"  
test.shp SCID_v4.0.gdb  
HBVSv_intrans_HQloc100_rcp85_ensembleMean_diffPerc
FAILURE:
Unable to open datasource `ESRI Shapefile' with the following drivers.
    -> `PCIDSK'

Jeff, suggested, I tried to load into a new empty database with.

thiemo @ thiemos-toshi /mnt/schweden % ogr2ogr -overwrite –progress  
--config PG_USE_COPY YES PG:"host='/var/run/postgresql' port='6543'  
dbname='sverige_gdb' user='sverige'" SCID_v4.0.gdb  
HBVSv_intrans_HQloc100_rcp45_ensembleMean_diffPerc
ERROR 1: Couldn't fetch requested layer 'SCID_v4.0.gdb'!

But still, I get errors.

Got it! Thomas, you are a genius! You are right with your dash  
assumption. Whatever I copied from the documentation pdf was not a  
dash! It loads into non-empty database (as was to be expected).

Thanks folks, for helping! It loads

Kind regards

Thiemo
