I am in the process of creating a batch file that will update some function=
s in a database for a remote user similar to:

psql -o output dbname < functionupdate.sql

Is there any way to save any ERROR and NOTICE messages to a file?=20=20

The -o option doesn't capture this information.

Thanks,
George

You have to use command shell redirects.

For example, I commonly do in bash
psql -o output dbname < functionupdate.sql >out.dump
... which sends all the command responses to a file, allowing me to read only 
the errors on the screen.

See a guide to your shell for more creative redirection.

Hi Josh,

Thanks for the reply.

What I am trying to achieve is to have errors go to a file, rather than show
up on the screen.

Is this possible?

George

Hi Wei,

I hadn't tried that, and it did the trick!

Thank you!
