Additional Information

The layer in the (.mpkx) file has an invalid definition query. For example, tableName.FieldName = 'tableName.FieldName2'. Remove this definition query and reapply it using the query builder UI as tableName.FieldName = tableName.FieldName2. This is tested and works in current versions of ArcGIS Pro 3.3 and 3.2. Note: In ArcGIS Pro 3.2, many bugs with definition queries working with joins are fixed. This may be valid in prior releases.
