Body: <p>I am trying to import contacts into our database from a CSV file.  On the first import screen, "Choose Data Source", I have set the data source to CSV, picked the file, ticked "first row contains column headers", set contact type to Individual, dup to Update, picked the rule I want to use, set comma separator and the date format.</p>
  
  <p>However, when I click Continue, the same page reloads and everything I had set is cleared.  I am not taken to the next step and I do not see any error message.</p>
  
  <p>Any advice?</p>

  I am trying to import contacts into our database from a CSV file. On the first import screen, "Choose Data Source", I have set the data source to CSV, picked the file, ticked "first row contains column headers", set contact type to Individual, dup to Update, picked the rule I want to use, set comma separator and the date format.
  
  However, when I click Continue, the same page reloads and everything I had set is cleared. I am not taken to the next step and I do not see any error message.
  
  Any advice?
