The "-#" prompt in psql means you are in line continuation mode. The \out
meta-command should be issued while sitting at an initial prompt "=#".
Being in line-continuation mode means you are typing something else above
it that doesn't constitute a full command - and you are still not showing
us what that is. This is the reason I asked for basically a self-contained
example.
