Hi,
I have an SSIS project for processing multiple excel file and load data to SQL server DB. I have a connection manager for excel and added the expression ExcelFilePath to my variable @User::File_Path. Which is populated from For each loop container (In variable mapping User::File_Path is set to 0 Index).

The package is running fine with multiple Excel files but the problem is when the file name is changed or a new file comes in the folder (with same structure) it gets error. If the excel file Debit "QR Feb 2018.xlsx" (which is used while creating the excel source connection) is present in that folder there is no problem. Only if the exact file name is not present then the problem occurs.

Error shows :-

Solution 1

It sounds like your connection has been set up to only connect to that spreadsheet. You can parameterize your connection following the steps here ... Parameterizing connections and values at runtime using SSIS environment variables[^]

Solution 2

This was not the solution. Not even the scenario. The problem was with the delay validation of the foreach loop container. Must be set true for variable excel file.I had changed the delay validation of my excel source connection but not to the foreach loop container.
