I ran into this too.  I assume it is a limitation on the free version of MySQL, and 
that
you have to pay to use "load data" in an SQL script.  To import my data files, I use
the "mysqlimport" function from the command line or batch file.  It seems to support
most of the "load data" options.

Subject: Q: LOAD DATA command error


I use version 4.0.12-max-debug.

mysql> returns the following error code when I use the load data command.

mysql> load data local infile "foo.txt" into table pet;
ERROR 1148: The used command is not allowed with this MySQL version

Do I need to upgrade to a new version?
