This is due to the apparmor profile for mysqld that disallows the mysqld
process to read files in /var/www.

You can emulate the load data infile SQL statement with the mysqlimport
utility and use the LOCAL option (so that the file is sent to the mysqld
rather then mysqld opening the file directly).

Another option is to update mysqld apparmor profile to allow read access
to your file. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingApparmor for more
information on this.
