I am using the latest version. MonetDB 5 server v11.15.17 "Feb2013-SP5". The server and client are running under my account. The files and folders were also created with my account.
Here is a simpler version which also encounters the "failed to import table" message.
CREATE TABLE staging_simple_results( lookup varchar(20) NULL, extra_symbol varchar(20) NULL, measure1 tinyint NULL, base_temp float NULL ) ;
Here are the contents of the same input, in a file called D:\junk\simple_import.csv. The file is also attached. one,two,3,4.023456787 green,brown,2,8.3456837
This is the statement I issued for the bulk load. copy into staging_simple_results from ('D:\junk\simple_import.csv') delimiters ',', '\r\n' ;

I created a table with 43 columns. The table contains char, varchar, and tinyint datatypes. I am running on Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit. The file contains two rows and is comma separated. The file is BCP output from MSSQL. When I tried to bulk load into the table from a file with a COPY INTO command I got an unhelpful message.
"failed to import table"
How can I find out why the import failed?
Which version of MonetDB are you using? I seem to remember fixing a problem where the actual failure message wasn't propagated to the level where the error was reported.
