Is this what you are calling?
(export-url #u"/my-directory/" ;must be a path url
:export-type :directory
:pathname #p"unix.box.edu:~user/*.lisp"
:Directory-writer #'write-indexed-directory-listing)
You might try some meta-. and tracing some code to see what is happening.
In general, you'll get better responses to bug reports and questions
if you send a reproducible test case.
