error 1265. Data truncated for column when trying to load data from txt file

Question

I have table in mysql table table looks like

create table Pickup
(
PickupID int not null,
ClientID int not null,
PickupDate date not null,
PickupProxy  va         


        

Answer 1

I have seen the same warning when my data has extra space, tabs, newlines or other characters in my column which is decimal(10,2) to solve that, I had to remove those characters from value.

here is how I handled it.

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'c:/Users/Hitesh/Downloads/InventoryMasterReportHitesh.csv' 
INTO TABLE stores_inventory_tmp 
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' 
ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
IGNORE 1 ROWS
(@col1, @col2, @col3, @col4, @col5)
SET sku = TRIM(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@col1,'\t',''), '$',''), '\r', ''), '\n', ''))
, product_name = TRIM(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@col2,'\t',''), '$',''), '\r', ''), '\n', ''))
, department_number = TRIM(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@col3,'\t',''), '$',''), '\r', ''), '\n', ''))
, department_name = TRIM(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@col4,'\t',''), '$',''), '\r', ''), '\n', ''))
, price = TRIM(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@col5,'\t',''), '$',''), '\r', ''), '\n', ''))
;

I've got that hint from this answer

Answer 2

This error means that at least one row in your Pickup_withoutproxy2.txt file has a value in its first column that is larger than an int (your PickupId field).

An Int can only accept values between -2147483648 to 2147483647.

Review your data to see what's going on. You could try to load it into a temp table with a varchar data type if your txt file is extremely large and difficult to see. Easy enough to check for an int once loaded in the database.

Good luck.
