Foreach loop with XML Source failure

I can't import from XML files using a foreach loop. I load an XML file with a generated XSD. When I map the file to the table it has no errors. If I now go back and change to a different XML file, I get an error:

"Error 1 Validation error. Data Flow Task: DTS.Pipeline: input column "COLUMNNAME" (129) has lineage ID 2115 that was not previously used in the Data Flow task. Package.dtsx 0 0"

This is for testing purposes. When I run the foreach loop it does not work. Ironically, I do the exact same thing in another foreach loop with a completely different XML and it works fine.

Here is the broken XSD:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xs:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:element name="ComputerStatus">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" name="computer">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:attribute name="GUID" type="xs:string" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="WSUSServer" type="xs:string" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="WSUSGroup" type="xs:string" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="computerName" type="xs:string" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="OSBuild" type="xs:unsignedShort" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="OSSP" type="xs:unsignedByte" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="Model" type="xs:string" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="Make" type="xs:string" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="BIOS" type="xs:string" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="Processor" type="xs:string" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="LastReportedStatus" type="xs:string" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="LastSyncTime" type="xs:string" use="optional" />
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>

Help. Please. What have I done wrong. I imagine there is a flaw in my XML, but I can't pinpoint it.

Here is a sample of the XML file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<ComputerStatus>
<computerCount QTY="1" />
<computer GUID="edc2b6a5-5d86-467c-8c89-43fa18ae5921" WSUSServer="WSUS" WSUSGroup="THIS" computerName="COMPUTER" OSBuild="3790" OSSP="1" Model="COMPUTERTYPE" Make="HP" BIOS="1" Processor="x86" LastReportedStatus="10/25/2006 12:00:49 PM" LastSyncTime="10/25/2006 11:57:09 AM" />
</ComputerStatus>

That error says INPUT column, so I doubt its coming from the XML source adapter. An XML source adapter has output columns (and external metadata columns). Are you certain the error is with the source adapter and not some other pipeline component?

As an aside, that XSD and xml will work just fine in without regard the surrounding container. The XSD is not broken so far as use in the SSIS source adapter is concerned, although it does not contain the <computerCount> element.|||

Thank you for the feedback, but I think that I failed to mention that yes, the next thing that I send the XML Source to, whether it be a sort, derived column, an ole db destination, etc... is where the failure shows up.

Take for instance the case where I put the XML Source to an OLE DB Destination. I use a file and set the columns via regular mapping. Then I go back and set the XML Source to another file to be sure it continues to work and I get the error:

Error 1 Validation error. Data Flow Task: DTS.Pipeline: input column "WSUSServer" (5136) has lineage ID 4776 that was not previously used in the Data Flow task. Package.dtsx 0 0

Then I go back into the Ole DB Destination and have it map using Column Names. And everything is okay again. Then go back and switch to the next file and get this error:

Error 1 Validation error. Data Flow Task: DTS.Pipeline: input column "WSUSServer" (5136) has lineage ID 5265 that was not previously used in the Data Flow task. Package.dtsx 0 0

It's a vicious cycle.

An aside, to your aside, I was messing with the XSD and took out the ComputerCount during debug.

Thank you for your help.
