Can someone please explain the difference between Output and External columns? I can't fathom why "Output" columns aren't good enough. In other words, what is there a need or value in having two types of "output" columns?
TIA,

Combine Primary key from Destination Table Load with Source Data
Hi,
I have a flat file with several fields and this data needs to get loaded to one parent and multiple child tables. Think of this as a Sample header and Sample line information rolled up in one row.
The first few fields need to get loaded into the header table (parent table) and I need to use the primarykey (parentid) from the parent table as a foreign key in the subsequent data flows for loading child tables.
Is there a way I can do this in ssis?
Note: Generally I would have created a second data flow task with the flat file as the source and add an extensive lookup onto the the header table (parent table) and get the parentid that way.
But in this case the header table doesn't have any fields which I can use to make a one-on-one match to the source file.
Thanks!

Issue With Project Parameters In Child Packages
I would like to report a bug/issue with SSIS. It occurs when you create project parameter ( a common value for all the packages inside the project ) and use it as a connection string in data flow task source. If you create a master package that calls other
packages then packages run successfully but if you execute the packages using a for each loop passing package location then as soon as the child package loads it throws an error that project parameter cannot be found in variable list (Error Code : 0xC00470A6& 0xC0017003 -- Unable to parse connection string ).
Said that, please note that even though it throws an error but if we increase the max error count for Execute Package Task then package executes successfully from beginning to end but it will throw errors saying project parameter not found and cannot be parsed ( even if it has already been parsed in child package ).
Looking forward for help and for reporting this as bug ( in case it is )

Setting a parameter on a SQL Agent job to change a connection string
Good Morning,
Is it possible to create a parameter in a SQL Job to change a connection string on an SSIS package without having to redeploy the package for each change.
I am currently using SQL 2012 with BIDS 2010
Any help would be amazing.
Thank you

Mapping numeric to nvarchar eliminates leading zero
I am working with VS SSIS 2015 and SQL SERVER 2017 (14.0.1000.169). The problem I'm facing is when I'm mapping a numeric data type column in SSIS to nvarchar column in SQL table. The value of the column in SSIS does contain a leading zero (0.07), but when mapped to a table it eliminates the leading zero (.07).
When i see the data viewer just before insert to the table, the values are just fine (0.07,0.08)
The metadata just before insert to the table is also fine. The both columns are DT_NUMERIC (4,2)
Please advise, and thank you in advance. Best Regards.

Is it possible to use a Golang SQL Server Driver to pull SSIS information
Scenario: I'm trying to do work on some SSIS manipulations in Golang. I've seen that there is a mssql driver denisenkom/go-mssqldb. My main goal is to either "watch" or locally copy the .dtsx files to the machine running Go.
1. I'm not sure if this is something that is possible with this driver? Maybe there's a different driver I should be using
2. If this is the right driver, then I'm not sure what commands I should be mimicking from something like SSMS.
3. Any other feedback/assistance on this would be super helpful!

Stopping a Data Flow Task quickly when Excel source columns aren't correct?
I have a Data Flow Task consisting of a source Script Component that reads an Excel file. That data is fed into a transformation Script Component that verifies the columns are correct and reorders and assigns them to the destination columns. Then the data runs through a conversion task. Then to the destination component.
When the transformation Script Component looks at the first row and detects an invalid file, I want to abort the whole process.
The problem is it always takes just as long to return immediately from Input0_ProcessInputRow() as it does to import a valid file. Nothing I do speeds up the process of exiting the execution of a package. Even throwing an exception as the first statement of Input0_ProcessInputRow() doesn't speed it up.
What can I do to make error feedback faster?

Cancel/delete execution with status of "Created Execution"
I have a couple of executions with a status of "Created execution". I can see this either via the Executions report or query (SELECT * from catalog.executions where status = 1).
How can I get rid of these executions without calling catalog.start_execution? We do not want these to run, but I want to clean them up so they do not show up anymore.
Jobs can get in this state for a couple of reasons:
- start_execution called when SSIS is down
- required parameters not set on job
- start_execution never called
Thanks.

count
Hi,
It's a simple count statement but not sure why I didn't get the correct count.
SELECT distinctcount(a.myorder) OVER (PARTITION BY a.mydate) as 'orderCnt',
convert(varchar(30), a.mydate,110) as Date
FROM mytblsale
group by a.mydate,a.morder
Basically, I need to count how many orders for each date. Why 02-10-2020 shows twice , it should be show one line with total is 28.
Thanks

Character set issue
I have an SSIS package which is using Oracle Provider for OLE DB to retrieve data from Oracle database.
One of the columns that I'm selecting is a coordinates(polygon) info. It is coming as CLOB (DT_NTEXT) in a text polygon representation: POLYGON((-1 1, -3 3, -1 1)) - (It's just an example. The actual values that I'm receiving have much more points and the string is very long)...
When I run the package on my local machine it works fine and shows the polygons as described above.
When I deploy my package to another server the values are coming like this: 䰀夀䜀 (Chinese characters...?)
The package is reading the data from the same Oracle source.
Any ideas on how it can be fixed? I cannot convert the column itself to another format since it can be very long (more than 8000 characters).

Problem with executing an SSIS package using data stored on a shared drive
This is a fairly perplexing problem for me. We have a application that writes files out to a shared drive that I need to process each day. We run SQL Server 2008 R2 in a 64 bit environment. My script runs fine in BIDS but when I try to
run it with SQL Agent I get the message :
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "'X:\20121001\' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.".
I've tried using the UNC path and everything else that I can think of. The SQL Agent job runs under a Proxy Account which uses my credentials. Do I need to give the Proxy Account some additional privileges?
The thing that I can't figure out is why the path is marked as invalid when it runs in SQL Agent but not BIDS. I've been working on this all day and would like to put this thing to rest!

What access do I need to allow for the SQL Server Agent Owner in order to run a SSIS Package with PGP Encryption and WinSCP
So when we run the SSIS Package locally utilizing my Logon obviously, it works fine. But when we create a SQL Server Agent Job with an Owner that is a Service Account, I think it's choking when attempting to run PGP.exe and WinSCP.com on the Job Server.
What access do I need to provide for the Service Account on the Job Server so that it can properly execute PGP.exe and WinSCP.com on our Job Server?
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Upgrading to Teradata 16.2 on WinServer 2012R2/SS-2016SP1 and Attunity for Teradata
Hello, I’m on a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard Edition, and SQL Server 2016 SP1. I also have installed Teradata Driver 15.10, Teradata Transport Utilities 15.10, and Attunity V3.
I need to upgrade the Teradata Driver, Utilities to Teradata Version 16.2, and I may have to upgrade the SQL Server Attunity for Teradata Connector to Version 4, not sure yet on that one.
My question is, has someone else out here with the same system setup, performed this same upgrade without issues and no incompatibilities problems? Any pitfalls I need to be made aware of by chance?

Problem adding config file to agent job step to execute SSIS package
Greetings, have an issue adding a config file through ssms on SQL 2014. I am moving numerous 2008 R2 file based packages to a new server. I have copied about 100 packages over, scripting off the jobs from the old server, making required changes to the
configs and packages to get them to run on the new 2014 server again using the file based packages not SSISDB yet. The issue I have hit with 1 package is I needed to rewrite this, i also renamed it to remove the spaces and was going to manually set up the
job as I have done many times on the older servers. I added the step and browsed to the "ssis packages" folder, which would be on my machine since I was setting it up remotely and it worked fine. Then I tried to add config files which would need
to be on the server and they are but the explorer window does not show any folders on the server and there are about 100. I tried remoting in to the server to do this but that doesn't work either. What am I missing here as to why I cant browse to the config
files? I can simply script the job from the old server and edit the job but this should work? I tried SSMS 17 and SSMS 18 but neither would allow me to browse to the config files.
any ideas appreciated. See pic below of what I am seeing when I try to add a config file and the explorer window below shows the folder on the server.
