Ensure that excel has not quoted Filename and other field headings in the first line of your .csv metadata file.
- The default behaviour on excel is to quote everthing, so you may need to inspect your .csv file with a text editor before ingest.
- Quoted heading get passed through and you end up with build errors due to invalid XML
- It's OK - and often necessary - for your actual data do be quoted

if your .csv file is in the same folder as your files, then ensure you rename it so it is seen before all other files. '0000metadata.csv' worked for me. Note: The default behaviour is to read files in order - so if your .csv file isn't read first, you end up with two seperate records; one with metadata and no file, the other being the file and no metadata.
