SCORM naming conventions

Having produced a series of scorm-based (1.2) activities, have found we're unable to add them to client's LMS. Am thinking this is the naming convention used. For example:

Starters unit 10 Happy ending – Activity 4.zip

Which brings me to 2 questions:

1. Could the length and use of spaces/special characters be the cause? 

2. If yes to 1. (just awaiting confirmation from the LMS support - but am pretty sure that's it), is there a quicker (and sound) way to change the name of the scorm folders without republishing in Storyline 360? There's quite a few...

    the name of the scorm package (zip) is nothing special - you can change the filename anytime without republish

    the Scorm data (eg. course title) are in the included file "metadata.xml"

    what error message is displayed when import is not working?

    Saba (Cornerstone OnDemand) automatically replaces the spaces in a file title with underscores at the time the SCORM file is imported. Your client's LMS may have a similar (undocumented, of course) restriction on file naming. What LMS are they using?
