[postgis-users] upload a folder of raster files

[Giannis Giakoumidakis]

I firstly try with rid to see if it's working. It gives me an error: 

ERROR:  syntax error at or near "("
LINE 19: ...  FROM ' || quote_ident(public) || '.' quote_ident(cc_all ) ...
                                                                                               ^

See anything wrong here??

Then I would suggest you use the SQL method: 

-Create a new table creating a unique numeric id per filename (use generate_series()),

-Join this table to the raster table so you get one numeric id per filename and 

-Use this field when you call SplitTable().
