LOCAL_INFILE_Packet

The LOCAL_INFILE_Packet is sent by the server to request a file from the client during the execution of a LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE statement.

If the client sends a LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE statement via com_query, the server responds with LOCAL_INFILE_Packet to tell the client to send a specified file to the server.

Fields

• int<1> 0xFB : LOCAL_INFILE header.

• string filename.

Client Response

The client sends the file as the packet body. If the file is large, the contents are sent in multiple separate packets. After the file is sent, the client must send an empty packet to indicate that no more data will follow.

Once the client has finished sending the file, the server will respond with an OK_packet or an ERR_packet.
