Re: Testing / debuging data import

There is this open source tool "mysql2psql" which is bascially a Perl script
that can take as an input MySQL dump file and covnert that to a PostgreSQL
specific dump file so that you can restore the dump file easily in
PostgreSQL.

You can find the tool at -->
http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/mysql2psql/projdisplay.php
