Re: Permission denied when executing a query from a file

That's likely because the postgres user doesn't have access to the
/home/vincent/Equip.sql file. Figure out your file unix permission. This
isn't a PostgreSQL problem.

ls -l, chmod and chown are your friend. If you are really hard up consider
copying the sql into /tmp.
