Solutions:
This error occurs when you have specified a Flat File connection manager for the “Local” parameter of the File Transfer Task. The error message is saying that you need to use a different type of connection manager. You should be using the File connection manager instead of the Flat File connection manager. Even if the local file(s) you are working with are .txt or .csv files, use the File connection manager.
