Possible bug in import

I think I've found a bug in the import system (xwiki/bin/import/XWiki/Import). XWiki: 1.0-beta-1 Java: 1.5.0_07-b03 Tomcat: 4.0.5 If Tomcat is running as an unprivileged user and I try to import an XAR file I get a stack dump. Tracing this shows the file it's trying to write to is /upload__2d1b026e_10fac18a3a1__8000_00000008.tmp As Tomcat has a working directory of /, this doesn't work so well. CATALINA_TMPDIR is set to /var/tmp so I expect this is where it should write to (this should be ${java.io.tmpdir}). Tracing through FileUploadPlugin.java, lines 128-134 have: if (tempdir != null) { fileupload.setRepositoryPath(tempdir); (new File(tempdir)).mkdirs(); } else { fileupload.setRepositoryPath("."); } so I suspect that whatever is calling loadFileList is failing to set the tempdir and it's defaulting to ".". I tried to trace this back but was unable to work out where it came from (the context stuff confuses me). Here's the stack trace printed: Error number 0 in 11: Uncaught exception Wrapped Exception: null com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 0 in 11: Uncaught exception Wrapped Exception: null at
