Stick to the contributions forum for questions regarding contributions, you will get faster responses and you might even find the answer before you post.

 

There are numerous very informational threads about easypopulate, plus the answer to your problem is in the readme and installation directions.

 

You need to change the permissions on that temp directory to 777 via your server or ftp.

 

You also need to look in easypopulate.php for the place to name your temp directory (also in the readme) You are writing to /tmp and it is looking for it in catalog/temp

You can ask here, but the contribution writers most likely won't see your question. This forum is generally for general generic oscommerce questions, once you start customizing, the contributions forum is where you want to ask questions about installing and configuring them.
