I am trying to use the copy command from a csv files using a UNIX shell 
script but something is 'not found'...I can't figure out what is 'not 
found'. Below is my command from the shell script, the executed command, 
the content of the csv file and the output from trying to execute the 
command.

Clearly, the file is being read but I can't figure out what is not 
found. BTW, the column names in the stg.bar_active table match the names 
and order in the first row of the csv file. What should I be looking 
for?

Thanks for your help!

Sue
