I have a File System Task which uses a SourceVariable to set source files.
My SourceVariable was passed from previous steps and contains something like "C:\Temp\File01*.*".
I intend to move all files started with prefix "File01" to be moved to destination directory.
However, I got the following error:
[File System Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Illegal characters in path.".
It's complaining about the * in my path. However, I don't know the filenames beforehand. Is there anyway to get around it?

You could try a FOREACH container - put your File System Task in it and it should move all of the matching files one by one - after just a little bit of config.

Thanks for the suggestion! Would you please elaborate a little more?
I couldn't figure out how to set the "Enumerator configuration" in the Foreach Loop (Foreach File Enumerator) container using variables. How can I pass my directory variable (C:\Temp) and File variable (File01*.*) to Folder and Files fields respectively?

Sure thing. Edit the Foreach container, click on Collection, select Expressions and set the Directory and Filespec properties to retrieve the contents of your variables.
