>>> [!note] Migrated issue <!-- Drupal.org comment --> <!-- Migrated from issue #2023775. --> Reported by: [danmuzyka](https://www.drupal.org/user/48685) >>> <p>When attempting to change the settings for Feeds Directory Fetcher, the following form error messages appear upon form submit:</p> <blockquote><p> Notice: Undefined index: directory in FeedsFileFetcher-&gt;configFormValidate() (line 274 of /var/www/html/glendalecc/sites/all/modules/contrib/feeds/plugins/FeedsFileFetcher.inc).<br> Notice: Undefined index: allowed_schemes in FeedsFileFetcher-&gt;configFormValidate() (line 275 of /var/www/html/glendalecc/sites/all/modules/contrib/feeds/plugins/FeedsFileFetcher.inc).<br> Warning: array_filter() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in FeedsFileFetcher-&gt;configFormValidate() (line 275 of /var/www/html/glendalecc/sites/all/modules/contrib/feeds/plugins/FeedsFileFetcher.inc).<br> Notice: Undefined index: direct in FeedsFileFetcher-&gt;configFormValidate() (line 277 of /var/www/html/glendalecc/sites/all/modules/contrib/feeds/plugins/FeedsFileFetcher.inc).<br> Please specify an upload directory. </p></blockquote> <p>The issue is that the <code>feeds_fetcher_directory_fetcher</code> class is inheriting the <code>configFormValidate()</code> method from the parent class, <code>FeedsFileFetcher</code>, but that method ought to be overridden in the child class. This is because the validation function in the <code>FeedsFileFetcher</code> class checks for form values in <code>configForm()</code> that do not exist in <code>feeds_fetcher_directory_fetcher</code>'s implementation of <code>configForm()</code>.</p> <p>Attached is a patch that addresses the <code>configFormValidate()</code> issue. This patch also adds a configuration option on the importer for setting the directory, so that the directory does not have to be set on the sourceForm. This is provided for convenience and to reduce the confusion of users when they set up the feed (see for example, <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/feeds_fetcher_directory/-/work_items/2002244" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/feeds_fetcher_directory/-/work_items/2002244</a></span>).</p> >>> [!note] Pre-migration files - [feeds\_fetcher\_directory-config-form-validate-errors.patch](https://www.drupal.org/files/feeds_fetcher_directory-config-form-validate-errors.patch) >>>
