secure-file-priv Empty set

Windows 2007 MySQL 5.7

Receiving error :

ERROR 1290 (HY000): The MySQL server is running with the --secure-file-priv option so it cannot execute this statement

So I assumed that it was simply a privilege error for the directory that I had stored my DB.

So I ran:

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "secure-file-priv";

and returned:

Empty set (0.00 sec)

so I searched for "my.ini" my.ini is located in C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7

MySQL is installed in C:\Program Files (x86)

I made a copy of my Links.csv into the folder location of my.ini and the error still returned.

Script:

mysql> LOAD DATA INFILE 'Links.csv' INTO TABLE Links;

I'm using Windows 10.

Check:

mysql> SELECT VERSION();
+------------+
| VERSION()  |
+------------+
| 5.7.17-log |
+------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'secure_file_priv';
+------------------+--------------------------------+
| Variable_name    | Value                          |
+------------------+--------------------------------+
| secure_file_priv | V:\PATH\TO\MySQL Server\Files\ |
+------------------+--------------------------------+
1 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT `VARIABLE_VALUE`
    -> FROM `performance_schema`.`global_variables`
    -> WHERE `VARIABLE_NAME` = 'secure_file_priv';
+--------------------------------+
| VARIABLE_VALUE                 |
+--------------------------------+
| V:\PATH\TO\MySQL Server\Files\ |
+--------------------------------+
1 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT @@GLOBAL.secure_file_priv;
+--------------------------------+
| @@GLOBAL.secure_file_priv      |
+--------------------------------+
| V:\PATH\TO\MySQL Server\Files\ |
+--------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

If you need to change the path, you must do it in the my.ini file:

# Secure File Priv.
secure-file-priv="V:/NEW/PATH/TO/MySQL Server/Files"

then restart MySQL: (in my case):

V:\>net stop MySQL

V:\>net start MySQL
