sql server - How do I fix the multiple-step OLE DB operation errors in SSIS?

Question

I'm attempting to make a DTS package to transfer data between two databases on the same server and I'm getting the following errors. Iv read that the Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated error can occur when you are transferring between different database types and there is loss of precision, but this is not that case here. How do I examine the column meta data?

Error: 0xC0202009 at Data Flow Task, piTech [183]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E21 Description: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".

Error: 0xC0202025 at Data Flow Task, piTech [183]: Cannot create an OLE DB accessor. Verify that the column metadata is valid.

Error: 0xC004701A at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: component "piTech" (183) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC0202025.

Answer 1

Take a look at the fields's proprieties (type, length, default value, etc.), they should be the same.

I had this problem with SQL Server 2008 R2 because the fields's length are not equal.
