Salesforce import into dataflow changed?

I have several salesforce tables in my dataflow.  They have always worked outside the gateway that we use to refresh into SQL.  When I go into edit my dataflow today all my connections to Salesforce are broken and want me to reconnect - I cannot - invalid credentials.  I can fix it by trying to add a new Saleforce connection and specifying that to come through our gateway to the SQL tables (weird but it seems to make everything connect and work).  Then I can save it all including my changes (if I do not do this it will not save the changes because of erors in all the salesforce tables).

 

The dataflow refreshes OK - I just get this connection issue when I go in to edit anything.   I know Salesforce are changing loads of stuff at the moment - but this just seems too odd.  Anyone else having problems or is it just me?

Ok I have found the solution.  Someone had added a new datasource into our main gateway being a salesforce login.  So I think the systm was getting confused by how it was meant to connect to saelsforce.  Once I removed that datasource from the gateway it sorted itself out.  Thank youf ro taking the time to show an interest.

What do you mean when you say "Salesforce tables" ?  Salesforce has objects and attributes, it doesn't have tables.

Objects.

Any sudden changes in object sizes or relationships? Do you have the same issue with DataLoader?
