FTP Task: Connection Manager Can Not Be Found

When I try to create an SSIS package with an FTP task, it always fails to compile with the messages:

Error at Package: The connection "" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.
Error at FTP Task [FTP Task]: Connection manager "" can not be found.
Error at FTP Task: There were errors during task validation.
(Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.VsIntegration)

The item is marked with a circled-X. The tool-tip also agrees: The connection "" is not found.

Using my recreation steps below, I am setting up a connection manager, but it is never found at compile time.


1. Open BIDS, select a new Integration Services project.
2. Drag an FTP task from the toolbox to the Control Flow window.
3. Double-click the FTP task.
4. On the FTP Task Editor window, General page, pull down the FTPConnection property.
5. Select <New Connection...>
6. On the FTP Connection Manager Editor window, enter the servername, port, username and password.
7. Click "Test Connection" to verify connectivity. (It succeeds.)
8. Click OK on the FTP Connection Manager Editor window.
9. Click OK on the FTP Task Editor window.


I'm not using a configuration file or logging provider for this example.
I have also installed SP2 + cumulative update 2.
