I have a solution in BIDS that contains many SSIS packages.
I had to restore the database that is being used by the OLEDB connection managers in my SSIS packages. Even though, all the data structure stayed the same as before when I developed those packages, all of my packages right now are getting error/warning icons stating that “external columns for component are out of synchronization” or “column cannot convert between unicode and non-unicode string datatypes”.
When I go into each individual task in the package that shows error/warning, all I have to do is click ok, and they would go away.
I have about 50 packages in the solution, so refreshing it like this for each package is a pain and time-consuming.
Is there a fast an easy way to get rid of those errors/warnings for all the packages at once?
Thanks!
Sorry, but since you changed the back end of it, BIDS has no way to make sure that it has the correct version of Metadata. If this package was running on a scheduled job, you wouldn’t have to do this IMO.
To answer your question, there is no automatic way of doing it.
