Description:
Error message:
 InnoDB_Memcached: Unable to open table 'innodb_memcache/containers'
 InnoDB_Memcached: Please create config table'containers' in database 'innodb_memcache' by running 'scripts/innodb_config.sql. error 31'
Failed to initialize instance. Error code: 13

How to repeat:
Create MySQL 5.6.10 Sandbox on Linux

Then run:
install plugin daemon_memcached soname "libmemcached.so";

The message is in the error log

Suggested fix:
Change the filename in the message from scripts/innodb_config.sql to share/innodb_memcached_config.sql

This has to be done for plugin/innodb_memcached/innodb_memcache/src/innodb_config.c for the messages in innodb_config_meta_hash_init and innodb_config_container

After loading the tables as indicated in the message the plugin has to be uninstalled and then installed again or the server has to be restarted.

You're correct, at least in the .tar.gz generic linux build it's in ./share/

I'm sure I know what error 31 is either...

Error 31 is DB_TABLE_NOT_FOUND (dberr_t from storage/innobase/include/db0err.h, storage/innobase/include/api0api.h).

The error is a bit confusing as it's an InnoDB error code while there is also a MySQL error code (13) in the next line.

$ perror 31
OS error code  31:  Too many links
$ perror 13
OS error code  13:  Permission denied

The documentation doesn't mention this error code.

Noted in 5.6.15, 5.7.3 changelogs:

 An "InnoDB" "memcached" configuration error message contained an
incorrect file name. The error message stated, "Please create config table
containers in database innodb_memcache by running innodb_config.sql. error
31.". The correct file name is "innodb_memcached_config.sql". Also, the
"error 31" portion of the error message has been translated to its text
equivalent, which is "Table not found".
