[postgis-users] shp2pgsql and psql: Null values represented by \N

[Matthew Pettis]

Hi,

I am on WindowsXP.

I am using shp2pgsql to create SQL to load a table to posgresql/postgis.
some columns have null values, and are represented by \N in the output from
this command.  However, when executing the sql output by shp2pgsql, psql
chokes on it, with the following error message (one of many identical except
for the number):

psql:shp_roads2_raw.sql:28656: invalid command \N
>

any idea why this is, and how I can fix it?

Thanks,
matt
