I'm using osm2psql to import some OSM data, but the default style file that comes packaged with the tool for Windows returns an error.

It seems to be expecting a differently formatted style file, but I can't seem to change it for it to work.

Command:

osm2pgsql -U *** -W *** -d *** -O flex -S D:\downloads\osm2pgsql-1.5.1-x64\osm2pgsql-bin\default.style south-america-latest.osm.pbf

Binary (1.5.1): https://osm2pgsql.org/download/windows/

Data: https://download.geofabrik.de/south-america.html

Error:

ERROR: Error loading lua config: ...ownloads\osm2pgsql-1.5.1-x64\osm2pgsql-bin\default.style:2: unexpected symbol near '#'.

OS: Windows10

The default style file is meant to be used with the pgsql output.

For the flex output, there is no default and you would have to provide your own Lua config file.

See the doc for the various output type and more specifically for the new flex output type.
