load data infile is not working

I am trying to batch upload by csv file. my csv file located in webroot/CSV/data.csv. Data are as follows:

name,email
santo, [email protected]

my code:

$sql = "LOAD DATA INFILE '$filepath'
    INTO TABLE customers
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
    OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '\"' 
    LINES TERMINATED BY ',,,\\r\\n'
    IGNORE 1 LINES 
    (name, email)";
    $this->Customer->query($sql);

here 

$filepath = WWW_ROOT . 'CSV' . DS.'data.csv';

Getting error:

C:\server\mysql\data\serverhtdocsdemo-home25appwebrootCSVdata.csv' not found (Errcode: 2 "No such file or directory")

I check the file it exists and file location in sql seems to okay:

SQL Query: LOAD DATA INFILE 'C:\server\htdocs\demo-home25\app\webroot\CSV\data.csv' INTO TABLE customers FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES TERMINATED BY ',,,\r\n' IGNORE 1 LINES (name, email)

What is the wrong in my code?

You tried to use "LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE"?

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'abc.csv' INTO TABLE abc
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' 
ENCLOSED BY '"' 
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n'
IGNORE 1 LINES
(col1, col2, col3, col4, col5...);

In your case:

$sql = "LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '$filepath'
    INTO TABLE customers
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
    OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '\"' 
    LINES TERMINATED BY ',,,\\r\\n'
    IGNORE 1 LINES 
    (name, email)";
    $this->Customer->query($sql);

"If LOCAL is specified, the file is read by the client program on the client host and sent to the server." from Documentation

I had the same issue. Sometimes it happens that your mysql server and client understand file locations differently.

Add LOCAL modifier (as LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE) to your query 

$sql = "LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '$filepath'
INTO TABLE customers
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '\"' 
LINES TERMINATED BY ',,,\\r\\n'
IGNORE 1 LINES 
(name, email)";
$this->Customer->query($sql);
