I am trying to import an SSIS package, however keep getting the following error message:

quote:

The object name is not valid. The name cannot be empty.


Here is the full technical message:

quote:

Program Location:

at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application.LoadPackage(String fileName, IDTSEvents events, Boolean loadNeutral) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application.LoadPackage(String fileName, IDTSEvents events) at Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Controls.PackageProtectionUtils.<>c_DisplayClass4.b_3(String password, IDTSEvents events) at Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Controls.PackageProtectionUtils.LoadPackageWithPassword(PackageLoader loader, IWin32Window dialogParent, String packageName, Boolean askOptionalPassword, String& packagePassword, DtsProtectionEventListener errorListener) at Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Controls.PackageProtectionUtils.LoadPackageFromFile(String file, IWin32Window dialogParent, Boolean askOptionalPassword, PackageUpgradeOptions packageUpgradeOptions, String& packagePassword, DtsProtectionEventListener errorListener) at Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Controls.PackageLocationControl.LoadPackage(DtsProtectionEventListener errorListener, PackageUpgradeOptions packageUpgradeOptions, String& packagePassword) at Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Controls.PackageLocationControl.LoadPackage(DtsProtectionEventListener errorListener, String& packagePassword) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.ObjectExplorerUI.ImportPackageAsAction.ImportPackage(ImportPackageAsForm dlg)



I am not sure why I am getting this message. I have imported other packages several times without any issues.

SQL Server: 2008
SSIS was created in VS 2008

The file name or path has no dots or any other special characters in it.

It seems its related to my machine. I was able to import the same packages from a different workstation.
