Ideas on resolving error -- "VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA".

  • I figured out the source of my issues......

    Since I was building my SSIS package from an existing package (similar use case, ETL data and export data to a business partner), SSIS in the Visual Studio IDE was using my local configuration values (server name and tables/SPs) at design time, but was using configuration values from the package's XML configuration file when I was performing "design-time" execution tests.

    Go figure.......:crazy:

    Nasty. Get yourself onto SSIS 2012+ and say goodbye to those XML config files for ever!

    If you haven't even tried to resolve your issue, please don't expect the hard-working volunteers here to waste their time providing links to answers which you could easily have found yourself.

    I would if I could, but the production server that I am working with is only SQL Server 2005, as we still have MS Access applications that are in use with no plan to replace and/or decommission.

    This normally occurs if there has been a change to your schema, not to stress, just double click on your input and output and it should resolve itself

    Thank you so much!

    You just saved me a lot of time (and nerves) now.
