SSIS package configuration files

SSIS package may ignore a configuration file (the dtsConfig file) and use variable values stored in the package (the dtsx file), if the configuration file contains one or more special Polish characters (even if there are used only in comments - <!-- the comments go here -->).

I have no idea when or why it happens, but I have a package that worked fine, then started to behave strangely and then it all came back to normal, when I removed special Polish characters from the comments in the configuration file. The bug is reproducible.

Special Polish characters in KDE applications

If special Polish characters are not displayed correctly in KDE applications, configure them to use Verdana instead of Helvetica.

You can also change the fonts used by the system using Kcontrol, if you are using KDE.

I am not sure, if system language settings affect this. I am almost 100% sure that there is a better way to solve this problem, but this one's quick & simple.

I've found it here.
