I have a fileshare node type which has 4 additional CCK fields. When I manually load data into the node, everything works fine and the fileshare upload/directory display works fine too.

I am trying to upload the values for the 4 CCK fields into nodes using node import. With fileshare deactivated, the node import works fine. I am not trying to upload the files with node import (I don't think there is any way to do that anyway). After the nodes are created, I manually upload the files using fileshare.

With fileshare turned on I try to run node import, the setup part of node import works fine and after I hit the upload button, I get the following message:

DIRECTORY ERROR - please check that "" is the correct path and that it is writable by your the webserver.

Any idea what might be going wrong?

Thanks for the help.
