[postgis-users] import shape or sql to postgres automatically

[zhang zhe]

Hello,
 
Thanks. Actually, I have windows and apache server installed in my computer. In this case how the code should look like? 
What´s the mylinuxserver ? is it the IP adress of the server? or name of the server? 
 
Will my code changed into 
psql.exe -h mywindowsServer -d postgres -U zhe -f c:/users/sqlfile.sql
 
Can I write this code to php? 
 
Thanks. 
 
psql.exe -h mylinuxserver -d mydatabase -U myuser
 -f c:/users/sqlfile.sql
