Your pipeline does not declare an "instance" parameter. Then you also
need an oxf:xml-converter processor before the oxf:file-serializer.

<p:config xmlns:p="http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/pipeline"
           xmlns:oxf="http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/processors">

     <p:param name="instance" type="input"/>

     <p:processor name="oxf:xml-converter">
         <p:input name="config">
             <config/>
         </p:input>
         <p:input name="data" href="#instance"/>
         <p:output name="data" id="converted"/>
     </p:processor>

     <p:processor name="oxf:file-serializer">
         <p:input name="config">
             <config>
                 <file>mods-result.xml</file>
                 <directory>/tmp</directory>
             </config>
         </p:input>
         <p:input name="data" href="#converter"/>
     </p:processor>
</p:config>

Be also sure to check in the logs that your submission in fact is
calling /xforms-mods/results. If it is not, you will have to check
your xforms:submission element. Also remember that a submission will
work only if the instance is valid and if required values are not
empty. Otherwise, an xforms-submit-error event is thrown.
