I'm trying to import a set of data into a database (MySQL 5.0.17-max).
Here's the query that I tried to run:
LOAD DATA INFILE `standardwttype.txt`
INTO TABLE StandardWeightType
FIELDS TERMINATED BY `\t`
LINES TERMINATED BY `\r`
(standard_wt_type_id, standard_wt_desc, standard_wt_lud);
And here's a sample of the data that I'm trying to load:
1 Cobweb 2005-01-13 15:21:50.654149
2 Lace Weight 2005-01-13 15:21:50.654149
3 Sock 2005-01-13 15:21:50.654149
4 Fingering 2005-01-13 15:21:50.654149
5 Baby 2005-01-13 15:21:50.654149
There is a tab between each field, and each line terminates with \r, I
believe (I use OSX).
I keep getting an error message:
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the
manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right
syntax to use near 'standardwttype.txt`
I've tried running just the first two line of the query and gotten an
error message. I checked the online manual to make sure my syntax is
correct, and checked "The Definitive Guide to MySQL 5".
How do I make this work?
