The error it gives is this:

Data comes from the geonames shapes_simplified_low.txt file here: http://download.geonames.org/export/dump/
MySQL version: 5.7.23
It seems like small MultiPolygons work but the larger ones don't. I've tried this on many countries and all single Polygons work, so I haven't included an example of that here.
The poi_point value is stored as a MYSQL POINT value with a set SRID of 4326.
Does anyone have any idea what is happening?
Best Answer
You have an invalid member in the multipolygon. Starting from position 11168:
There are only two distinct vertices (A and B) and the ring goes like A-B-A-A. It does not make a valid polygon.
