I don't think the fact that it says <STORAGE_DIR> means that it failed to
evaluate STORAGE_DIR because I just did a successful csv import and the
output's "Running command" looks like this:

"/usr/lib/postgresql/9.4/bin/psql" --command " "\\copy treas.tscombination
(tscombinationid, combination, description, milllevy) FROM
'<STORAGE_DIR>/w2/gis/Wyoming/22_Teton/scripts/dump/treas/tscombination.csv'
DELIMITER ',' CSV HEADER QUOTE '\"' ESCAPE '''';""

Which doesn't look significantly different than yours.

I'd suggest pasting your "Running command" into a shell with appropriate
environment variables set and see if you get more useful error info from
psql. "appropriate environment variables" might look something like:

export PGHOST=localhost
export PGPORT=5432
export PGDATABASE=your_database
export PGUSER=postgres
export PGPASSWORD=password

and of course change <STORAGE_DIR> to
/home/pgadmin/.pgadmin/storage/pgadmin/

I'm guessing permissions problems. Are you 'potgres' when you run it? And
do you have access to /home/pgadmin/.pgadmin/storage/pgadmin/? For me I'm
putting my stuff in my home dir, so: /home/rich/.pgadmin/storage/rich/

Let us know...
