>Description:
When loading initial data from a text file, mysql looks for
libncurses.so.4, doesn't find it and quits the command with
an error. This happens under Red Hat Linux 7.2, because it
has libncurses.so.5.x.
>How-To-Repeat:
This must be done on a system without an accessible libncurses.so.5.
Follow the tutorial in the manual to create a text file to
load into the pet database. Then, execute the following command:
load data local infile "pet.txt" into table pet;
>Fix:
This desperate hack worked for me:
cd /usr/lib
ln -s libncurses.so libncurses.so.4
After this, the load data command worked fine, however, I do not know
further ramifications of masquerading the 5.x libncurses as 4.
