How to repeat:
SSIS allows customized xml files for mapping data types between MSSQL & other databases, currently there are no mappings for MySql.

Reopening this as the bug was raised on behalf of a user posting the problem in the MySQL for Visual Studio forum.

We're attempting to do a data transfer and ran into this issue. I cannot locate a workaround or way to download.

Either fix the problem or remove the functionality; according to the date trail, as it is, it has not worked for five years.
