Hi Folks,
Thank you for visiting my blog today, this is another post talking about SSIS Data Flow Task which I encountered while performing data loading tasks using SSIS and would like to share with everyone.
Did your Visual Studio keeps not responding when you were opening the dataflow tasks for the SSIS Packages you or your team created as shown in image below. And you always try to close the same from task bar since you can’t work and keeps you frustrating, then this tip is absolutely for you.
The problem is actually with your Connection Manager, in your data flow task, you might have OLE DB Connections which the package is using in order to write information if there were any failures in the Data flow. In my case, I was actually writing to a SQL Table using a OLE DB Destination component.
If you cross check that SQL server availability, you should see the SQL Server (Your Instance) is stopped when you check in Start–> Services in the PC. In my case, I was using SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS01) in the SSIS Package as below.
And hence the SQL Server service is in stopped mode, the Visual Studio is not able to acquire the connection to open the package. You were almost there..
Just Start the service which you were using and voila…. your Visual Studio should open normally.
Thank you for reading….
Cheers,
PMDY
