    Unable to create an Umbraco Package!

    I use Umbraco 4.5.2 for Dot Net 3.5. The problem is whenever I try to create a package of the site, I am just able to give the name of the package. But when I press next, BOOM, I get the following error:

    Root element is missing.

    Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

    Exception Details: System.Xml.XmlException: Root element is missing.

    Source Error:

    An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below.

    IE also shows an error:

    Please help....

    I have exactly this issue too.

    Another google search brought up a reference to CMS Import with this error. I am using this too. Could they be related?

    Any ideas out there?

    Hi John, it's probably not much help, but I've seen this error before without CMS Import being installed; it was only on a test install, but can't remember the actions before hand. I'm guessing you've checked the createdPackages.config and installedPackages.config files to ensure the xml is valid ?

    Hi,

    Why CMSImport got the blame?? ;-) It's an bug in 4.5.x. According to this thread you it is becuase the  /App_Data/packages/created/createdPackages.config  file is empty. Open it add the following xml snippet to it 

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <packages></packages>

    and save the file. Then you can create packages again.

    Cheers,

    Richard 

    PS I'm interested in the google search you are referring to

    sorry Richard - I thought it was unlikely

    the post is here:

    http://forum.umbraco.org/yaf_postst8475_Root-element-is-missing.aspx

    from

    http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=%22System.Xml.XmlException:+Root+element+is+missing%22+umbraco+package

     

    i have checked the two xml files and they are as they should be

    not sure what to do next

    Maybe Umbraco can't open them, file permissions?? and if that isn't the case could you post your createdpackagesconfig file?

    this is createdPackages.config

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<packages></packages>

    it has Network Service full control (the site is running as this id)

    hep,

    The solution:

    /App_Data/packages/created/createdPackages.config  file is empty. Open it add the following xml snippet to it

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <packages></packages>

    Worked perfect for me - would high-five Richard Soeteman big time, but karma aint on my side ;)

    quite agree - have high five'd richard on your behalf :)

    i'm still getting this error - no idea why - it's not this - but it must be something

    next move for me is to start beta testing 4.6 juno and see if it still happens with this
