Sqoop ERROR 1290 HY000 The MySQL server is running with the --secure-file-priv option

Question

I"m trying to load data to mysql from local using the below command

LOAD DATA INFILE "mnt/home/edureka_519340/Basavaraju/Sqoop_Files.county_facts.csv" INTO TABLE county_data_Basavaraju
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "," ENCLOSED BY """
LINES TERMINATED BY "\r\n"
IGNORE 1 LINES;

But getting the following error

ERROR 1290 (HY000): The MySQL server is running with the --secure-file-priv option so it cannot execute this statement.

Please suggest how to load the mentioned csv file data in local path to the mysql table.

Answer 1

If your dataset is in the FTP then you have to execute the below command to load it in the table,

Syntax: 

load data local infile '<filepath/filename>' into table <table_name> fields terminated by ',' enclosed by '"'  lines terminated by '\n' ignore 1 rows;

So, your command should look like below,

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'Basavaraju/Sqoop_Files/county_facts.csv' INTO TABLE county_data_Basavaraju
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
IGNORE 1 LINES; 

If you notice, I have removed the complete path and just mentioned the directory name and the filename. This is because the load data local infile command searches for the file in the local file system only.
