LOAD DATA LOCAL, How do I skip the first line?

Solution 1:

LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/test.txt' INTO TABLE test IGNORE 1 LINES;

(reference)

Solution 2:

For those curious, IGNORE N LINES should be after the separator qualifiers:

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/myfile.csv' 
INTO TABLE tableName
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY '\"' 
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' 
IGNORE 1 LINES
(column,column,column);

Solution 3:

Try this:

IGNORE N LINES
LOAD DATA INFILE "/path/to/file.csv"
INTO TABLE MYTABLE 
COLUMNS TERMINATED BY ','
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
IGNORE 1 LINES;
