Answer 1

The top of the stack trace tells you the answer:
Could not open C:\Windows\Temp\php479C.tmp for reading! File does not exist.
The PHPExcel class is unable to open that file as it does not exist. Looking at the stack trace, this is being uploaded by the 'upload' method of the ModelCatalogProductImportExport object. I would ensure that this function is correctly importing the file, and saving it to the correct directory before running the PHPExcel class functions over the file.
