Can't create new package - Root element is missing.
Hi guys, I'm trying to create new package to export my templates but getting this exception:
At /umbraco/developer/packages/editPackage.aspx?id=0 (Referred by: http://www.mysite.com/umbraco/create.aspx?nodeId=-1&nodeType=createdPackages&nodeName=Created packages&rnd=21.2&rndo=22): System.Xml.XmlException: Root element is missing. at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(Exception e) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ThrowWithoutLineInfo(String res) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseDocumentContent() at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Read() at System.Xml.XmlLoader.Load(XmlDocument doc, XmlReader reader, Boolean preserveWhitespace) at System.Xml.XmlDocument.Load(XmlReader reader) at System.Xml.XmlDocument.Load(String filename) at umbraco.cms.businesslogic.packager.data.Reload(String dataSource) at umbraco.cms.businesslogic.packager.data.GetFromId(Int32 Id, String dataSource, Boolean reload) at umbraco.cms.businesslogic.packager.data.Package(Int32 id, String datasource) at umbraco.cms.businesslogic.packager.CreatedPackage.GetById(Int32 id) at umbraco.presentation.developer.packages._Default.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Web.Util.CalliHelper.EventArgFunctionCaller(IntPtr fp, Object o, Object t, EventArgs e) at System.Web.Util.CalliEventHandlerDelegateProxy.Callback(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.OnLoad(EventArgs e) at umbraco.BasePages.BasePage.OnLoad(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)
I'm right clicking Packages in developer section and choosing Create, I also have Created Packages folder (inside Packages) which is empty, both give the same error.
This is a well known bug in the version of Umbraco you are using to resolve it add the following line to /App_Data/packages/created/createdPackages.config
I just experienced the same issue on a Umbraco 4.8.1 solution.. Maybe its time to include the root-node in the xml-config file in the distribution files of umbraco?

How can I do it?
Thanks
Hi Zakhar
What version of Umbraco do you use here? I have just tried to create a basic package without content in 4.7 on MSSQL and I don't get any errors here.

Hi Jan,
We are using 4.5.2 as our site is on .NET 3.5
Thanks
Are you packing up some nodes? If so...have you choosen the root node?

I had the same issue but my Package.config file has the above mentioned lines. Is there any other resolution?
I just experienced the same issue on a Umbraco 4.8.1 solution.. Maybe its time to include the root-node in the xml-config file in the distribution files of umbraco?
Anyways, Adding that line solves the problem.
Still an issue in 4.9
Thanks Brendan. Just installed a new local site and had this issue. So why isn't this code already added?
