I have a Source Database D1, I have another database D2, schema is identical for D1 and D2.

D1 is on SQL Server 2012 and configured for SQL Server HA using Always on.

Data from D1 is required to be copied to D2 on daily basis but not required to be real time.

The plan is to configure the D2 database also for HA(Always on), under consideration.

D1 and D2 will be on separate VMs and may be isolated physically.

D1 is used by the internal application D2 will be used by a public facing website.

There may be simple rules applied to filter records from D1 and copy to D2.

Data copy from D1 to D2 is for approx 150 Tables.

I am looking for best technique to adopt to design this scenario with the Pros and Cons.

My decision will based on Performance, Security, Resilience, Guaranteed data synch in case of failure.

Option i can think of is SSIS, Replication, Synch Framework

As of now my inclination is towards replication as it has less development effort and it can be managed at the infrastructure level only but it may have Performance issue and log maintenance.

Please can someone help me to explain the best technique to go for with its advantages and disadvantages.

Thanks, any help is much appreciated.

I am creating a package to resolve an issue with embedded comma delimiters within columns in a csv file, by changing the delimiter from comma to pipe. Upon applying theREPLACE([FieldName],"\",\"","\"|\"") derived column transformation, my destination file loses about 160,000 rows from the source file.

The source file is being read as one column and the destination file also has one column.

Is there any obvious reason why this is happening ?

thanks

Good day,

I've seen a few similar posts, but the advice doesn't seem to apply to my situation.  Short version:

1. A new folder "B" is created via File System Task in a parent package, which calls a child package that executes the following steps.
2. Read-only raw file "X" is copied from folder "A" to "B" via File System Task
3. File "X" in "B" is marked Read-write via File Properties Task (custom)
4. File "X" is opened in a Data Flow with Raw File Source, data is manipulated, and written to (new) file "Y" in "B"
5. File "X" is deleted via File System Task... which fails claiming the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process

Additional information:

• SQL Server 2008R2 SP2 is in use.
• The error is NOT consistently repeatable.
• Steps 1-5 are linked together via precedence success constraints.
• Folder "B" does not exist prior to package execution.
• Other packages ARE executing and manipulating files in the same folder (the parent package in step 1 calls multiple child packages to perform similar copy/mark readwrite/read-manipulate-write/delete original steps).

The smoking gun is that running Process Monitor during a failed execution shows:

• Expected, reasonable file creations and accesses for files in folder "B" that line up with sysssislog entries, except for...
• Immediately after the (child) package fails with the access error, a CSC.EXE process "closes" file "X" in "B".  (CSC is the C# compiler... but at no point does a script task/component open file "X" in "B".)
• At no point in the trace does CSC.EXE open the file.

I am currently running more expansive tests, assuming that I've made a mistake in over-filtering with ProcMon somehow.  Does anyone else have any similar experience, or advice?

Hi,

I am trying to implement  SFTP automation in SSIS.  I used winscp assemblies to achieve this task.  During compile time, I have no errors. When i try to run it, i am getting  below runtime error (Refer image).  

So i tried to install the assembly in GAC. But i am getting "undefined BI " error . Please find the assembly link to download (http://winscp.net/eng/download.php). I am really looking for some guidance on this. Any other idea to achieve the SFTP automation will also be highly appreciated.

Hi Team,

I created Intial load and Incremental load packages using CDC tasks in SSIS 2012.

After making the changes in source table, I ran the incremental load package but the changes didn't pick at a first time. When I ran second time, then only its picks and update the target table.

I totally got confused why this behaviour?

I referred the below link for developing the packages:

Hi.  I need to upload/download files from Box.com, Dropbox, etc.  Is it possible to use SSIS?  If yes, please provide details on how.

Thank you!

Hi All,

I have a package, that runs successfully and completes the requirement without any issues.

I ran the same package on other developer machine and works as expected, no issues.

But when running the same package pinting to the same location from where i have run the package, i am getting the below error.

"Columns "*" and "*" cannot convert between unicode and non-unicode string data types."

This happens when it is loading to the oracle db table.

The column in the db is varchar2(20) and the source is from data conversion.. I am converting the column to unicode since it is expecting the db column as unicode. I am using OraOLEDB provider for connection to Oracle.

Can anyone suggest or guide how i can troubleshoot or solve this.

Hi,

a co-worker of mine experienced a problem with variable scopes in SSIS 2012 when copying a sequence container.

This is what he tried to do:

• Create a sequence container with a data flow task and a script component
• Add variable "a" with scope set to the sequence container
• Add "a" to ReadOnlyVariables in the script component and assign it to a variable within PreExecute() in the script
• Copy the sequence container (with DFT and SC)
• Rename (or remove and add new - doesn't matter) variable "b" with scope set to the new sequence container
• Change variable in ReadOnlyVariables of copied SC to "b", change it in the script as well

Now when executing the package, one of the sequence containers will always fail. Interestingly enough, it is not always the same but switches seemingly randomly. It doesn't matter if the script is written in C# or VB.

The following error is thrown:

Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0010009

In this case, VarForCopySeqC is the variable used in the copied sequence container, but the failing one is the original sequence container.

Does anyone have an idea how to resolve this? Thanks in advance for anyone helping us out here!

I'm using SQL Server 2008 and am trying to import a flat txt file that is ANSI as UTF-8 and keep getting error after error on different fields.  I'm wondering if there is a series of settings that will give me the best chance of importing this file.  I've inserted a a sample that you can look at.

The row delimiters are SOH and CR LF

Column delimiters are Pipe

Hello All,

I have a pipe delimited flat file having column headers with varying length which needs to be inserted into tables:

Col1|Col2|Col3|Col4|Col5|Col6|Description

1|12|ABC123|MCKDMC|DCDMCD|CDMKMCSD| Hello This is a description.

1|12|ABC123|MCKDMC|DCDMCD|CDMKMCSD| Hello This is a description data could not able to map 

in SSIS 2012 HUHDCJ JNJNFCDNCD JCDJCNDJNCDJNCJDNCJNDCN.

The data in second row contains multiple lines of data. which failed to map in SSIS 2012 flat file connection manager. but in SSIS 2005 its working fine.

I would appreciate input on a fix.

I have an Excel file(.xls) that I need to import to SQL Server database. I am trying to use the Import wizard. However, when I select the file and click next I get the warning "External table is not in the expected format.(Microsoft JET Database Engine)" . I opened the .xls file using a text editor. It looks like some html document.

<html xmlns="urnchemas-microsoft-comfficeffice"
xmlns:x="urnchemas-microsoft-comffice:excel"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">

<head>.................

I also used OPENQUERY to see if it works.

I get the following errors. 

Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.

Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "(null)".

When I open the file and save it to overwrite the existing .xls file it works fine.

Is there a way to import such files using SSIS without having to open and save it?

Thanks in advance!

I have a package that polls a datasource to identify whether the source is 1) available and 2) configured ,"ready" to provide data. If it is not, the package loops for x minutes before trying again. All works well, a script task tests the oledb connection etc and an smtp task notifies the status.

However, for whatever reason the smtp server has failed/been down on a couple of occasions. When the smtp server is down the package fails. I would like it to continue the loop and not fail the package.

Does anyone have the necessary code or pattern to achieve this behavior.

Cheers from down under.

Hi there,

I'm trying to upgrade our SSIS packages from SQL Server 2012 to 2014 (in Visual Studio 2013).  The wizard pops up the minute the project loads and I leave everything to default.

It errors immediately though on almost every package with the following error:

Error 0xc001000e: MyPackage: The connection "{5F69F91E-8CD7-49A7-A76A-815244411037}" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.

That connection is a project connection manager and most definitely exists.  In fact, I can open the individual package and it upgrades it for me and the package is completely fine.  It seems to me that the upgrade wizard has a bug whereby it doesn't look for project connection managers.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, otherwise I might just post it to connect as a bug.
