<p>Can you paste the output of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>ogrinfo -al -so PG:"dbname=dbname port=5432 host=dbhost user=dbusr" --optfile sql_filter.sql<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>so we can see the layer geometry type. I presume it is unknown.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>GeoPackage supports geometry columns with unknown geometry type.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Shapefile requires a precise geometry type, but the shapefile driver has a heuristics to use the geometry type of the first feature as the layer geometry type, when the declared layer geometry type is unknown. The OpenFileGDB driver doesn't have that heuristics.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>It is likely you need to add an explicit -nlt POLYGON or -nlt MULTIPOLYGON to your ogr2ogr invokation<o:p></o:p></p>
