SQL Server SSIS Error: External Column for Source out of sync with Data Source columns; How do I remove External Columns?

Query should output a certain list of Items, along with info like store information and manager info. Uses a Cursor to flip through list of various different levels of management, selects relevant information, then emails that person what the query returned for their district/region/store.

My issue is with the SSIS leg of the journey. Although the code acts like it runs, if I run Itemdata.dtsx separately (so as to see errors), it throws me the error:

"Warning: The external columns for component "Sources-ItemData"(1) are out of sync with the data source columns. The external column "RM_Email"(49) needs to be removed from the external columns. The external column "SM_Email"(46) needs to be removed from the external columns. The external column "DM_Email"(43) needs to be removed from the external columns."

This results in SQL Server Mngt Studio saying it ran, but the emails' contents are nothing but the table headers; no data, and the table headers don't change regardless of what I do.

I have eliminated these columns from any mention in my source code (posted below) and in the Table it uses. What am I missing?

Recheck column assignment between source and destination and in-between component as well.

Give it a try by setting data flow component's Properties, ValidateExternalMetadata to False.

Please have a look of this as well.

It seems like you were changing the OLEDB Source or other type of source recently.

Thus, you must delete OLEDB Source and create a new one again. Then also delete the mapping of particular field, save, go back to mapping again and map it back. Than it should work fine.

Rather than deleting and recreating:

  1. Copy the existing Data Source.
  2. Paste it back into the Data Flow Task. The pasted Data Source has a refreshed schema. You've preserved any downstream mappings that are possible to keep. You now face the least possible maintenance.
  3. Delete the connector from the old Data Source.
  4. Substitute the connector from the new Data Source.
  5. Maintain mappings, if necessary, in the Data Destination.

I had also same issue where all my column names were same but still getting the "The external columns for 'excelName' are out of synchronization with the data source columns. The column "mycolname" needs to be added to the external columns. The column "F62" needs to be added to the external columns." I have validated many time as well but no luck,even I matched my column header with destination table as well in excel formula and all seems to correct.So manually one by one column I checked and finally found that the file I have used for my connection initially had first letter in capital "Mycolname" , where as the file I was using (I used to overwrite the source file ) I just pasted data from some other file due which my header got changed. I changed the header again my input file and it worked.

Note : Be careful while using SSIS...really dangerous.

I realize this is an older question, but I have a text file that is 458 columns wide. SIGH. Resetting Columns, etc., could be tedious and in this case, I only had one column that was updated post-configuration in the Flat File Connection Manager. The data type length shows as 13 and warns on synchronization to the data source which shows a length of 12.

Here is what I did because I did not want to Reset Columns and none of the other methods worked or would cause me too much heart-ache/ time wasted:

  1. Close the project in Visual Studio.
  2. Save a copy of the project in case you fat-finger something.
  3. Open the project file in something like NotePad++
  4. I searched for the Flat File Source string in the project. This is to get a template of what to search for in the next step.
  5. In my case, the connection manager flat file data source is configured and looks like so: Package\Import Data\Flat File Source.Outputs[Flat File Source Output].Columns[MyColumn_1a]
  6. Now, use that template to search for the offending column:
    Package\Import Data\Flat File Source.Outputs[Flat File Source Output].Columns[MyColumn_238b] Look at the length (the property reporting to be out of sync in my case) and update accordingly.
refId="Package\Import Data\Flat File Source.Outputs[Flat File Source Output].Columns[EXAMT_1]"
codePage="1252"
dataType="str"
errorOrTruncationOperation="Conversion"
errorRowDisposition="FailComponent"
externalMetadataColumnId="Package\Import Data\Flat File Source.Outputs[Flat File Source Output].ExternalColumns[EXAMT_1]"
length="12"  <<<-----  UPDATED THIS FROM 13 TO 12 
lineageId="Package\Import Data\Flat File Source.Outputs[Flat File Source Output].Columns[EXAMT_1]"
name="EXAMT_1"
truncationRowDisposition="FailComponent">
 <properties>
  <property
  dataType="System.Boolean"
  description="Indicates whether the column uses the faster, locale-neutral parsing routines."
  name="FastParse">false</property>
  <property
  dataType="System.Boolean"
  description="Indicates whether the data is in binary format."
  name="UseBinaryFormat">false</property>
 </properties>
</outputColumn>```
  1. Save the file (in NotePad++), and close the file.
  2. Open the file in Visual Studio and check for error.
