Connectors in SSIS

  • I have an SSIS package that I am modifying and I need to adjust the workflow but I cannot see the connectors in BIDS to be able to delete and re-do my flow connectors. I know they are there because if I try to add a connector between the two existing objects where the connector already exists, I get a Microsoft Visual Studio error that states [Quote]Cannot create Connector.

    Only one workflow can exist between the same two executables.[/Quote] I'm trying to figure out how to display them?

    Anyone help me?

    Thanks!

  • Switch to the code-view (XML) of the SSIS package. You will have to determine the ID of the two elements that the program is complaining about -- the two you are trying to connect, no graphic, but the program says it already has a connection. Mine looked like what you see below. Find yours and just delete those lines. Afterwards, you will be able to connect the two elements normally with the GUI.

  • Try moving the task - this will often make the connectors re-appear.

    As quoted, just moving the task made the connectors re-appear 😛
