Issue Fixed: [SSIS.Pipeline] Error: "OLE DB Destination" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA".

Sometimes when you are working on SQL Server Data Tools - SSIS development Studio you might get following error.

[SSIS.Pipeline] Error: "OLE DB Destination" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA".


Resolution: Even though you close your solution and re-start the SQL Server Data Tools development environment this issue will be exists. The immediate solution is just delete the OLE DB destination component and add it again from SSIS tool box and create the mappings. After you create New OLE DB destination component all the metadata will be updated with latest schema changes.


Most possible reason for this issue is while you opened your SQL Server Data Tools you probably have changed metadata on a table referred by the OLE DB component.

Note: There may be other solutions which could solve the problem. But, this method will be quick solution in-order to get rid of the issue.

Cheers !..

  1. I encountered the same issue and in my case it was the source component failed while reading from Azure Blob storage. Took couple of hours to figure out and finally resolve this. Even though the column names were all same w.r.t previous file and successful load this time around the case of few columns' were changed and so is the error "VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA". After I got the case of column names corrected the file loaded successfully. Hope this helps.

The public was asked by the government to avoid nonessential gatherings as much as possible to stop spreading this deadly virus. Even though there were not many cases found in Sri Lanka, from March first week, they found the initial case a patient who works as a tourist. Now the situation is turning to worst after they found many cases especially tourists who are born Sri Lankans came down from Italy and European countries....
