[postgis-users] ogr2ogr creating shapefile

[TECHER David]

Hi Frances,

I'm used to using ogr2ogr but I've never had problems.

Never see this error before! For me to understanding what is getPop() in
your query???

What about using pgsql2shp instead of ogr2ogr ??? (see
http://postgis.refractions.net/docs/ch04.html#id2524054)

example: pgsql2shp -f your_shapefile.shp your_database your_query

for us to see if U have error too with this tool

For the error U give, it seems better to ask on gdal mailing list!
