What is your SQL Server exact version (are you up to date with Service Packs) and what errors you're getting?

I also suggest to try this forum

https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/home?forum=sqlintegrationservices where you may get your question resolved quicker. If you post there, please add here link for the reference.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
