Hi, No need to. I finally got to the bottom of it - there were permissions on the directories that were preventing the temp, files, log files, etc. to be written the directory itself. AS soon as I created a new directory in the local drive with local admin permissions and assigned with full read/write/modify permissions, it worked.

The batch file seems to run at first and then bombs out with: [Tue May 20 10:01:30.927] ERROR - Cannot import, exception occured while importing TEST.csv : java.lang.NullPointerException java.lang.NullPointerException at com.bmc.arsys.apiext.data.Util.generateMappingsForTextFiles(Unknown Source) at com.bmc.arsys.apiext.data.csv.CSVImporter.handleTitlesEvent(Unknown Source) at com.bmc.arsys.apiext.data.BaseImporter$1.handleEvent(Unknown Source) at com.bmc.arsys.apiext.data.Parser.fireEvent(Unknown Source) at com.bmc.arsys.apiext.data.csv.CSVParser.parseFile(Unknown Source) at com.bmc.arsys.apiext.data.csv.CSVImporter.a(Unknown Source) at com.bmc.arsys.apiext.data.csv.CSVImporter.startImport(Unknown Source) at com.bmc.arsys.apiext.data.BaseImporter.call(Unknown Source) at com.bmc.arsys.apiext.data.BaseImporter.call(Unknown Source) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRun(Unknown Source) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(Unknown Source) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(Unknown Source) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) I can run the import through the import tool, so I know the tool, the file and the mappings are all good. This is happening in version 8.1.0. I have looked through a ton of stuff on the internet but nothing seems to help resolve the issue.
