The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:
Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/sql-copy.html
Description:
Postgres psql (PostgreSQL) 9.5.4
Wrong COPY command synopsis:
1. comma is not an options separator { ...( option [, ...] ... }
2. FORMAT is not a kewyword {... FORMAT format_name ... }
Following two commands should be valid after synopsis, but they are not:
gis=# COPY gis_entity FROM '/tmp/podl_db_city.csv' DELIMITER ',', FORMAT
csv;
ERROR: syntax error at or near ","
LINE 1: ..._entity FROM '/tmp/podl_db_city.csv' DELIMITER ',', FORMAT c...
^
gis=# COPY gis_entity FROM '/tmp/podl_db_city.csv' DELIMITER ',' FORMAT
csv;
ERROR: syntax error at or near "FORMAT"
LINE 1: ...entity FROM '/tmp/podl_db_city.csv' DELIMITER ',' FORMAT csv...
^

The parentheses surrounding the options are not optional. Personally I
like to include the WITH.
COPY gis_entity FROM 'file.csv' WITH ( FORMAT csv );

Thank you for answer, it was my mistake, sorry.
Firstly, I didn't remark there is a new and an old syntax and I wrongly
mixed both of them.
Best regards
