SSIS package shows blank screen in design mode

1) While the package is opened with the white page, rename it in the solution.

2) Save the package and close.

3) Rename the package back original name (while package is closed). This rename will open the package and hopefully set it back so that you can edit it.

This has worked for me, hopefully it will work for others.

All white on open? Just happens from time to time, the stuff is there just close and reopen Visual Studio always makes it come back for me.

But if not you could always find the dtsx file under it all in your users folder:

C:\Users\<yourusernamehere>\Source\Workspaces\<Projectworkspace>

copy it and then pull it back in by right clicking the SSIS Packages folder in Solution Explorer and add existing package see if you can see it then.

Tim's answer above helped but didnt work for me. Instead this worked in Visual Studio 2015:

1. Close the solution
2. Move the .dtsx file that will not open to another folder (ex: C:\Temp)
3. Rename the .dtsx file to the name you want
4. Open the solution - you should get a message that the package is missing.
5. In Solution Explorer, right-click on "SSIS Packages" and select "Add existing Package"
6. Package Location should be "File system". Click the "..." button and select the moved and renamed .dtsx file. click OK

The .dtsx file should now be added in the solution correctly named - and open for editing.
