Issue Summary
I keep getting the error: The directory imports does not exist. The error first appears after installing the node_imports module. I'm using drupal 6.14 version 6.x.1.0-rc4 of node_import and the latest version of ubercart. I checked my directory and the folder sites/default/files/import is there and definitely writeable.
Should node_import create this directory automatically? I think I created the directory myself.
Thanks for your help,
Steve

Normally node_import creates the directory when you first visit the settings page or the "new import" page.
Could you remove the directory and revisit the settings page? Is the sites/default/files directory writable for the webserver user?
You say sites/default/files/import , while node_import expects sites/default/files/imports (extra "s"). Typo?
Could you install node_import-6.x-1.x-dev ? (see http://drupal.org/node/328041) and see if the issue still pops up. Do not forget to run update.php when you install the -dev version.

Try setting the permissions on the imports folder to 777, at least temporarily.
#3
No answer ... setting to postponed (maintainer needs more info)

Same issue. I hope the attached info is helpful, let me know if there is anything else I can provide.
Node import (node_import) 6.x-1.x-dev
I did run update.php
Errors in UI are:
"The directory imports does not exist.
The settings have not been saved because of the errors."

How can i use token [uid] in import directory? And how set the permission to the directory to user with [uid] only? thx
#8
and i changed the directory to "u[uid]/imports" (in edit-field), and now i have a red message about "directory does not exists" and the module does not works and finally i can't change the directory. i'm confused %
#9
#10
You can't use tokens in the directory name.
It can't vary on a per user basis
The directory must be present and permissions set correctly.
#11
ok, but the directory really exists with maximum permissions. i have no idea.
How correctly uninstall the module? when i remove and reinstall it: the bad path saved and then can not be changed.
dev version does not have these problems.
