In my case  one of the event handler task was pointing to old connection which was deleted  deleting the unused event handler task fixed the problem  I end up opening the package in XML format to understand that the problem is with event handler task

For package developed in Visual Studio 2015  I found i must supply a value for the parameter  which would be the case when you deploy or run on different server  which sets the connection manager s connection string instead of using the design time value  This will suppress the error message  I think this could be a bug   dtexec  project c  mypath ETL ispac  package mypackage dtsx  SET  Package Variables  Project  myParameterName   myValueForTheParameter    I tested this without or without parameterize the connection string  which is at the project level  The result was the same  i e  I have to set the value for the parameter even thought it was not used

I received this error while attempting to open an SSDT 2010 SSIS 2012 project in VS with SSDT 2013   When it opened the project  it asked to migrate all the packages   When I allowed it to proceed  every package failed with this error and others   I found that bypassing the conversion and just opening each package individually  the package is upgraded upon opening  and it converted fine and successfully ran

I generally find that when SSIS seems to be irrationally complaining about an apparently good connection  it is because I am trying to define the Connection directly using a package variable rather than via a Connection Manager  Example  today I had a Web Service Task where I made the mistake of directly creating an Expression defining its  Connection  property in terms of a package variable that contained the URL of the web service  Note however that a Connection is not the same thing as a ConnectionString  So when I looked at the task  it looked for all the world like it had everything valid  because it displayed a perfectly valid URL as the  Connection   The problem is that the Connection cannot be a string  it must be a Connection Manager

Thank you for posting this issue   One resolution  open the package in XML form through windows explorer  locate the GUID for the connection manager that cant be found  In my case  it was a bonked EventHandler connection that was corrupted   This same connection manager was used in the control flow but somehow was not corrupted there  so it was not obvious to the user via the UI  Since the XML pointed to an event handler connection manager  I opened the event handler tab in the UI and it immediately displayed the wonderful RED X on the source and targets that were referencing the corrupted connection manager ID  I repointed it to the correct manager  rebuilt the pkg and saved  Good to go   The key was opening the pkg in XML format and locating the GUID in the code to see where it was failing  If I was not able to find a valid reference to it in the UI  I was going to either rename the XML connection to another known GUID within the XML and then go into the UI and repoint it again  or delete it altogether   Good luck

The previous remarks about deleting or removing a connection are absolutely a possibility   But you can also get this error when you attempt to invoke a package that uses project level connections  instead of package level connections    If you are using project level connections and still want to use dtexec  never fear there is a way   I would not recommend converting them to package level connections  assuming you created them as project level connections for a good reason    You will need to deploy your SSIS project   Your SSIS server will need to have a catalog created  https   msdn microsoft com en-us library gg471509 aspx    Once you have the catalog  in your SSIS project select Project- Deploy and follow the wizard   The result will be a   ispac file generated in your SSIS solution folder bin Development  Now for the money command  instead of invoking your package with a simple  dtexec exe  f  package dtsx   instead call it this way  dtexec exe  project   lt      project ispac   package   lt      package dtsx   The ispac file has the project level connection info that is needed to execute your package and you should be set

I determined that this problem was a corrupt connection manager by identifying the specific connection that was failing  I m working in SQL Server 2016 and I have created the SSISDB catalog and I am deploying my projects there    Here s the short answer  Delete the connection manager and then re-create it with the same name  Make sure the packages using that connection are still wired up correctly and you should be good to go  If you re not sure how to do that  I ve included the detailed procedure below   To identify the corrupt connection  I did the following  In SSMS  I opened the Integration Services Catalogs folder  then the SSISDB folder  then the folder for my solution  and on down until I found my list of packages for that project    By right clicking the package that failed  going to reports standard reports all executions  selecting the last execution  and viewing the  All Messages  report I was able to isolate which connection was failing  In my case  the connection manager to my destination  I simply deleted the connection manager and then recreated a new connection manager with the same name   Subsequently  I went into my package  opened the data flow  found that some of my destinations had lit up with the red X  I opened the destination  re-selected the correct connection name  re-selected the target table  and checked the mappings were still correct  I had six destinations and only three had the red X but I clicked all of them and made sure they were still configured correctly

What i did to solve this problem was simple  I had to rename my SQL Server so that it would respond to the  localhos  tag  After that i changed all the connections on the SSIS and i rebuild the solution   it worked  hope it helps you

In my case  I could solve this in an easier way  I opened the x dtsConfig archive  and for an unknown reason this archive was not in the standard format  so ssis could not recognize the configurations  Fortunately  I had backed up the archive previously  so I just had to copy it to the original folder  and everything was working again

This seems to also happen when you use the new SSIS 2012  Shared Connection Manager  concept where the connection managers are not defined within your package but the Visual Studio project and just get referenced in the package  Executing it via SQL Agent or DTEXEC yields the same error message   I haven t found a solution for that yet but would love to get some feedback if anybody experienced it before

User · Answer

It seems that your ssis package is pointing to some other connection which might have been deleted or renamed  Try opening the SSIS compoenents and point to the correct connection which are there in your connection manager    It happens when we copy the SSIS package components to create a new package or because of renaming the connections or there may be still components which are using the old connection defined in you xml config file  In your case try checking the Execute SQL Task which is throwing error    If you are using XML for configuration try deploying the new one

This happened for me   SSIS-package not created by me started at some point behaving unexpectedly  like giving that Connection not found -error and my task was to fix it though  When I looked at Job Step Properties under SQL Agent jobs  it showed no Configurations in use and Data sources were exact they should be  But  error message pointed to something different  Then I opened  dtsx file in question and noticed that there IS package conf  set and in that package conf  file is connection name set wrong  So my advice is to compare  dtsx and  dtsConfig -files side by side

I had the same problem    I use project level connection managers and my packages run correctly in SSDT but when I deployed them and execute them through a job with sql server agent  I get  Connection not found  errors   So I deploy the project and then the problem was solved  when you use project level connection managers but just deploy a single package from that project  and you call package through sql server agent  it could not recognize your connection managers so you should determine package level connection managers or you should first deploy your project

I m a little late to the party  but I ran across this thread while experiencing the same errors and found a different resolution   When creating an SSIS 2012 package  in the Solution Explorer window you will see the Connection Managers folder at the project level  This seems like the most logical place to create a connection  and should be used when creating a connection that can be used by any package in the project  It is included at the project level  and not the package level   When running my dtsx package using dtexec  I received the same errors shown above  This is because the connection is not included in the package  just the project   My solution was to go into the package designer  and then in the Connection Manager window  right click the project level connection  which is shown using the   project   prefix  and choose  Convert to Package Connection   This will embed the connection in the actual dtsx package  This alleviated my problem
