Using XML Source File with SSIS

Try after adding <root></root> in your xml. I guess your xml would be something like

 <?xml version="1.0"?>
 <root>       
 <Control>
          <sRulesToRun>11</sRulesToRun>
          <dPointInTime>2011-01-02 00:00:01</dPointInTime>
        </Control>
  </root>

and your xsd could be

 <?xml version="1.0"?>
 <xsd:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" version="1.0" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
 <xsd:element name="root">
     <xsd:complexType>
       <xsd:sequence>
   <xsd:element name="Control">
     <xsd:complexType>
       <xsd:sequence>
         <xsd:element name="sRulesToRun" type="xsd:int" />
         <xsd:element name="dPointInTime" type="xsd:dateTime" />
       </xsd:sequence>
     </xsd:complexType>
   </xsd:element>
 </xsd:sequence>
     </xsd:complexType>
   </xsd:element>
 </xsd:schema>

Basically, the root tag is missing in the xml file. You can name it anything. Hope it helps.

Have you checked the exact case? XML is case sensitive.

Do you still get the issue if you get SSIS to generate the XSD?
