title: vertica-python Error on COPY LOCAL
body: <p>I was using this code for <strong>'COPY LOCAL'</strong> in python on <strong>Vertica 7.1</strong>:</p>
  
  <pre><code>conn_info = {'host': '192.168.1.1', 'port': 5433, 'user': 'dbadmin', 'password': 'xxxxxx', 'database': 'db'}
  connection = vertica_python.connect(**conn_info)
  cur = connection.cursor()
  file_name="/tmp/tmp_file"
  temp_file = open(file_name,"w")
  temp_file .write(records)
  temp_file.close()
  os.system('gzip -cvf9 %s &gt; %s.gz'%(file_name,file_name))
  qr="copy tmp_table(int_id, int_timestamp, ... ) from local '%s' GZIP delimiter ';' RECORD TERMINATOR E'\\r' NULL  '\\N';"%(file_name+'.gz')
  cur.execute(qr)
  </code></pre>
