Most likely you need to set write permissions on templates_c folder. This is where temporary import files are stored and since it works on local machine this should be the cause.
Tanks for reply.
The error is caused by the function str_getcsv() not available in php < 5.3.
So I solved by adding this code to the file "includes/import_functions.php" at line 94
if (!function_exists('str_getcsv')) {
function str_getcsv($input, $delimiter = ',', $enclosure = '"', $escape = '\\', $eol = '\n') {
if (is_string($input) && !empty($input)) {
$output = array();
$tmp = preg_split("/".$eol."/",$input);
if (is_array($tmp) && !empty($tmp)) {
while (list($line_num, $line) = each($tmp)) {
if (preg_match("/".$escape.$enclosure."/",$line)) {
while ($strlen = strlen($line)) {
$pos_delimiter = strpos($line,$delimiter);
$pos_enclosure_start = strpos($line,$enclosure);
if (
is_int($pos_delimiter) && is_int($pos_enclosure_start)
&& ($pos_enclosure_start < $pos_delimiter)
) {
$enclosed_str = substr($line,1);
$pos_enclosure_end = strpos($enclosed_str,$enclosure);
$enclosed_str = substr($enclosed_str,0,$pos_enclosure_end);
$output[$line_num][] = $enclosed_str;
$offset = $pos_enclosure_end+3;
} else {
if (empty($pos_delimiter) && empty($pos_enclosure_start)) {
$output[$line_num][] = substr($line,0);
$offset = strlen($line);
} else {
$output[$line_num][] = substr($line,0,$pos_delimiter);
$offset = (
!empty($pos_enclosure_start)
&& ($pos_enclosure_start < $pos_delimiter)
)
?$pos_enclosure_start
:$pos_delimiter+1;
}
}
$line = substr($line,$offset);
}
} else {
$line = preg_split("/".$delimiter."/",$line);
/*
- Validating against pesky extra line breaks creating false rows.
*/
if (is_array($line) && !empty($line[0])) {
$output[$line_num] = $line;
}
}
}
return $output;
} else {
return false;
}
} else {
return false;
}
}
}
