Answer 1

I had the same issue while importing the CSV file in AWS MySQL 8.0 RDS.

mysql> LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/tmp/your.csv' INTO TABLE test.demo2 FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' IGNORE 1 LINES;

ERROR 1148 (42000): The used command is not allowed with this MySQL version

1) Check for local_infile parameter

mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'local_infile';

2) Log out from client and re-login using below parameter.

mysql -u root -p -h rdsendpoint --local-infile=1

3) Run the same command

mysql> LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/tmp/your.csv' INTO TABLE test.demo2 FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' IGNORE 1 LINES;
