I just had this error message. For me, it turned out that my filepath was too long. My packaged folder was about 100 characters long. When I shortened it, it packaged without a problem. I didn't change any other settings.

For anyone having a similar issue and not finding a solution:

I use Dropbox and found that I could not package the file as long as Dropbox was trying to sync. I hope that helps!

I had the same issue with OneDrive. Paused syncing and the file packaged perfectly!
