>If mysql works fine, then you've already started the server. Then does a normal Windows installation set it up so the server autostarts whenever you boot up? I did not manually start the server.
>You have to restart the server before it will notice the [mysqld] option group change. After I added local-infile=1 in the [mysqld] and [mysql] sections, the LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE command started working. I did not do anything to shut down and restart the server. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
