Discovery fails shortly after ServiceNow Connector MP import or update

Problem

Shortly after importing or updating the Cookdown ServiceNow Connector management pack you may see discoveries fail with the error:

The system cannot find the file specified. Error Code: -2147024894 (The system cannot find the file specified).

The tasks can be re-run either from the tasks menu:

Or from the Discovery menu:
