Guillaume,
It was my understanding that PostGIS only uses the libgdal in the same
folder as raster2pgsql since that would be the first in its path. However it
uses the environment variable for the proj files and so forth. So I'm still
a bit surprised this is an issue unless those files are vastly different
from 1.10.
When you do
SELECT postgis_full_version();
What does it give for the GDAL version.
If its just a during load problem, I think you can just simply override the
environment variable in your loader batch script
SET GDAL_DATA="C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.3\gdal-data"
Of course this won't fix your running install. In PostGIS 2.2 we introduced
a PostgreSQL GUC variable to handle this:
http://postgis.net/docs/manual-dev/postgis_gdal_datapath.html
But unfortunately that won't help you for 2.1 and not sure how much that
helps with raster2pgsql anyway since I don't think raster2pgsql makes
connection to Postgres to be able to even see that variable.
What I could do is create a build that uses the newer GDAL to see if that
improves your situation (you can be my test guinea pig :) ). IN 2.2 I plan
to ship with GDAL 1.11 and probably upgrade next 2.1 to GDAL 1.11 as well
since unfortunately they have to share the same GDAL on same PostgreSQL
install and some people I expect will be running both.
Opinions?

- ERREUR: erreur de syntaxe
Hi Regina and others:
We found the problem with raster2pgsql! It was my version of GDAL
(1.11dev) that my GDAL environment variable was pointing to that created the
bug. I simply moved my GDAL folder to some other location (without changing
GDAL environment variable) and ran raster2pgsql again so that PostGIS could
use its own GDAL instead. This resulted in a complete (i.e. no broken line
at the end) output SQL file from raster2pgsql.
Since I want to keep using my GDAL version (1.11dev, with all my add-ons
compiled and the version used by other software), this raises the question:
how to force PostGIS to not use the GDAL installation referenced by the GDAL
environment variable but instead use its own GDAL?
Thanks!
