Hello Layale,
the import directory is configured in
[dspace]/config/dspace.cfg
### Batch Item import settings ###
# The directory where the results of imports will be placed (mapfile,
upload file)
org.dspace.app.batchitemimport.work.dir = ${dspace.dir}/imports
The dspace.dir ist configured in dspace.cfg too
# DSpace installation directory
dspace.dir = ${dspace.install.dir}
which uses the dspace.install.dir from
[dspace-source]/dspace/build.properties
There might be other issues like permissions.
Hope this helps
Claudia
