Can't load local file into mysql database
Watch carefully, everything is up my sleeve.

mysql&gt; SELECT 'abc
    '&gt; 
    '&gt; 
    '&gt; def';
+-----------+
| abc


def |
+-----------+
| abc


def |
+-----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)


Notice that my first line has a quote, but not the matching quote.  When I hit return; it prompted me with '&gt; -- That's the clue that I need to balance the quotes.  Eventually, I did so, and the query terminated.

Look around, I suspect there is a stray quote on the preceding or following line.  Or the quotes around the filename aren't really the same.
