ERROR 2068 (HY000): LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE file request rejected due to restrictions on access

I'm trying:

mysql> 

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/var/tmp/countries.csv' 
INTO TABLE countries 
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' 
ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES 
TERMINATED BY '\n' 
IGNORE 1 LINES 
(CountryId,CountryCode,CountryDescription,CountryRegion,LastUpdatedDate,created_by,created_on)
SET created_by = 'DH_INITIAL_LOAD', created_on = current_timestamp();

ERROR 2068 (HY000): LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE file request rejected due to restrictions on access.`

It was working fine, I downloaded pymysql and mysql connector for the python script. I uninstalled and checked still it is not working. The verion and infile is ON,

 select version() -| 8.0.17



mysql> SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE 'local_infile';
+---------------+-------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+---------------+-------+
| local_infile  | ON    |
+---------------+-------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Solution

  • Known issue: https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=91872

    for workaround when trying to connect to mysql in itself set local-infile to 1 and perform the load command:

    mysql --local-infile=1 -h$MASTER_DB_HOST -u$MASTER_DB_USER -p$MASTER_DB_PASSWD  -D$MASTER_DB_NAME
