Problem when Connection is not available

Hello!

I have problem when opening a package or running it through SQL Server Agent and the Server in the Connection is not available. (I have tried with (M) SSIS > Work Offline, it helps opening it, but not running it).

The package has a Foreach Loop Container that loop through several Companies. Each Company have different Connection.

It exist one ODBC and one OLEDB connection. They have the Expression “ConnectionString” set to an variable (@.[User::varODBCConnectionString]/ @.[User::varOLEDBConnectionString]).

The Foreach Loop Container property ForceExectionResult is set to Completion. This results in that if one company is not available when trying to access it, the loop will continue with the next Company.

But the variables have a value from the beginning. If the server in the variables is not available, it is not possible to open the package or execute it through SQL Server Agent.

I tried to set the Property DelayValidation to True on the Connections, but this did not help.

Dose anyone have any ide how get around this problem?

Best regards,

Tina

Hi Tina,

You need to set DelayValidation=TRUE on the tasks that use those connection managers, not on the connection managers themselves.
