[ic] How To: use offline with MySQL database?

[Scott Goodman]

You are simply trying to import the file? Try it using the mysql command
line tool. Run something like this:

$ mysql databasename
mysql> load data infile '/path/to/products.txt' into table products fields
terminated by '\t' ignore 1 lines;
