From the manual here, you could try experimenting with your my.cnf settings - I know that I had this problem in the past and I eventually got around this by using [client] setting.

# added from http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/load-data-local.html # to allow for abrowse to load data! loose-local-infile = 1 local-infile = 1 

Now, it was either local-infile or loose-local-infile which worked eventually. I believe that loose-local-infile is the more permissive setting, so you could try that first - and if you've no security concerns on your server, you could leave it at that.

  • This issue goes way back to 2002 : lists.mysql.com/mysql/115782. Your answer fits here. Using [mysql] group header would probably be more applicable if other client tools do no recognize local-infile. +1 !!! Commented Jul 20, 2014 at 1:43
