The following bug has been logged online:
Bug reference: 2114
Logged by: Ben Gould
Email address: ben.gould@free.fr
PostgreSQL version: 8.1.0
Operating system: Mac OS X 10.4.3
Description: (patch) COPY FROM ... end of copy marker corrupt
Details:
With a table like:
CREATE TABLE test_table (
foo text,
bar text,
baz text
);
Using this format for COPY FROM:
COPY test_table FROM STDIN WITH CSV HEADER DELIMITER AS ',' NULL AS 'NULL'
QUOTE AS '\"' ESCAPE AS '\"'
Where the file was generated via:
COPY test_table TO STDOUT WITH CSV HEADER DELIMITER AS ',' NULL AS 'NULL'
QUOTE AS '\"' ESCAPE AS '\"' FORCE QUOTE foo, bar, baz;
I needed this patch:

- if (c == '\' && cstate->line_buf.len == 0)
+ if (c == '\' && !in_quote && cstate->line_buf.len == 0)
{
char c2;[color=darkred]
Because of this error message:
pg_endcopy warning: ERROR: end-of-copy marker corrupt
(We have quoted strings containing things like ..\..\.. in the CSV file
which broke the copy from.)
I was using DBD::Pg as the client library.
