Hi,

I created a variable to store Flat Flat Destination path and name. First time when a i run with a particular flat file name in the variable, it works fine. If i try to run again with the same name in the variable. it throws error. please see the error below. This is not my local folder, it is a shared folder.

Hi When i ran my SSIS job in Dev , it worked fine but when i ran the same job in Test, i got the below error:

Hi

We have scheduled job running a console application daily. For some reason on Sunday's only the scheduler says it ran successfully but no email confirmation, table entries and the normal processing occurs.

This happens only on a Sunday and for no explained reason. No problem on the day before or after...

I think this also happened with Daylight Savings adjustment. Has anyone else encountered this?

Any ideas or suggestions

Environment is:

To all SSIS geniuses out there:

I have an SSIS package that reads from an Access database (2010).  This database has a linked table to another Access file (mdb) located in an sftp location, and our SSIS query is reading from local tables and to this linked table.  The package runs smoothly when both databases point to a local folder, however when trying to run the same package using test databases located in different servers/drives the package fails.  The message that we get is "
    Description: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR.  An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available.  Source: "Microsoft Office Access Database Engine"  Hresult: 0x80004005  Description: "Unrecognized \
database format".  We have installed both ACE OLEDB drivers (32 and 64) but we still get the error.  Has anybody seen something like this before? 

I'm trying to pull data from an Oracle database using SSIS. When I try to select a few fields from the source table, it returns the following error message:

    [OLE DB Source [47]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR.  An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14.
    An OLE DB record is available.  Source: "OraOLEDB"  Hresult: 0x80040E14  Description: "ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected".
    An OLE DB record is available.  Source: "OraOLEDB"  Hresult: 0x80004005  Description: "ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected".

The source columns are a combination of numeric and texts, and I've also tried selecting one of them, which didn't work. I'm using the Oracle client 11.2.0.1, and it works fine with any other data sources I have connected to so far. How can I resolve this error?

I`m getting an error on one of my packages. The Pakcage contains a For each loop which fetches flat files and dumps into a SQL server.

When i checked the error messages, The package crashes on the destination tables.

This is the entire message.

[OLE DB Destination [8500]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR.  An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21.
An OLE DB record is available.  Source: "Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 10.0"  Hresult: 0x80040E21 

Description: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".

I have verified and updated the column meta data.

Can someone please help me with this error?

Hi All,

I have a query and would appreciate your response / guidance.

I have a CDC package which when I execute manually takes around 1 sec to finish but when I execute the same package via a SQL job it takes around 24 seconds.

Can you please suggest what might be the issue?

Please let me know if you need any information.

Regards,

Nikhil

Hello All,

I am trying to Inner Join between two tables of employee details. The Join will be done Employee ID, DOB and on name. We will have a constraint to check the first 5 characters of their name (substring). This works and get the exact count on SQL query.

But when I translate this to SSIS, where I have done a substring with derived column and Merge Join, the count is wrong.

Join with the employee number and dob - count is same for SQL query and in SSIS

But when we join with name, its not equal.

The Issue is with the name, when an employee has 3 or 4 characters of name like 'abc', join is getting ignored in SSIS. Any help to fix this.

Hi All,

Can anyone please get me through the solution for the below scenario:

 - I have multiple XML files existing in the source system from where I need to read the data from each XML, validate and pull to staging database. 

- So, to read the XML files from source, I have a foreach loop which will get the XML files from the source folder one by one and executes.

- There are multiple data flow tasks, script tasks, SQL tasks etc in the foreach loop to validate the business requirements.

Question: If there is an error in any of the component in foreach loop, it should log the error, come out of the loop from that point and pick up the next file with out stopping the execution. How can I achieve this?

Thanks,

Sri

Ive got a WMI Data Reader task that is using a query like this, which is set in a script task.
"SELECT * FROM Win32_NtLogEvent WHERE Logfile='Application' AND Type='error' AND TimeGenerated > '3/10/2015'"

If I take off the TimeGenerated part, the DataReader task succeeds, but with it I get an error

"Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object"

Ive had issues with time formats before when dealing with WMI, is this a case where the time format comes into question?

I tried with UTC time format and still get the same error.  I really need to be able to filter based on date/time.  Since Im filling in a DataTable with the WMI results, I suppose I could filter the DT for the date...

The WQL statement Im using is being built like this (using UTC time)

Dts.Variables["User::wmi_query_string"].Value = "SELECT * FROM Win32_NtLogEvent WHERE Logfile='Application' AND Type='error' AND TimeGenerated > '" + DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1).ToUniversalTime() + "'";

I'm attempting to write a SSIS package that loops through a list of databases on different servers and returns a list of users for each database, including their roles. The following code runs successfully when executed in SSMS against databases on SQL 2005, 2008/R2, and 2012.

It all starts falling down when I try and put this into a data flow task as a source. The connection manager for the OLE DB Source is dynamically changed and this code called for each new connection by placing the data flow task within a loop. The connection string for the connection manager is an expression defined as follows:

"Data Source="+ @[User::ServerName] +";Initial Catalog="+ @[User::DBName] +";Provider=SQLNCLI11.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;"

As I said, the code runs fine when executed in SSMS, but when run through SSIS only works for SQL 2012 servers. If I try to return information from a SQL 2005 (or other) server I get the following message and the packages refuses to run:

     "no column information was returned by the sql command"

After exploring this issue I've attempted a few solutions (including prefixing my code with SET FMTONLY OFF and ensuring that the final result always returns a value), but to no avail.

I'm at the point that the only solution I can think of is to create this as a stored procedure / table-values function on every database (or at least every server), but this strikes me as impractical.

Suggestions?

Hi,

While migrating DTS package to SSIS package, I came across one which had multiple OLE DB connection managers all connecting to the same Oracle schema in the same instance.

There are that many execute SQL task corresponding to each of these connection managers.

Each of  these SQL task call different Oracle stored procedures and executes them in the same schema in the same instance.

My question is, is there any particular reason or advantage in having multiple connection managers?

Can't we have one single connection manager and use the same in all of these SQL tasks?

Does multiple connection managers provide any added advantage like parallelism or something?

In this particular case, there are no actual workflows, rather each of these SQL tasks are stand alones. But there are other packages which has SQL tasks in workflow but still each of them calling separate connection managers all calling the same schema in the same instance.

Thanks for your time.

Cordially, Biju George

So on a weekly basis, I have to sweep a sub-set of our Member data. So my query is built to produce this result set. I then have to take that result set and compare it to a data table which contains all that same information that I have provided to a 3rd party vendor. So I need to take into account the following scenarios...

1. Obviously, if the Member is new, then I have to Insert its row to what we'll call table 3rdPartyMember and create a row out on a 3rdPartyMemberAuditTrail Table
2. Individually, I also have to manage if any of the following data fields have changed: Name, Birth Date, Addressing Information, Member Plan, Member Termination...and by Individually what I mean is that if the Last Name has changed, then update its row in 3rdPartyMember and Insert a row to 3rdPartyMemberAuditTrail indicating "Last Name Change"...and similarly if Address Line 1 has changed..."Address Line 1 Change"

So I guess my question is this. Should this be done in one whole Stored Procedure invoked by my SSIS Package or should it be done in pieces?

• Create the Temporary Table to house our weekly Member subset extract and result set
• Determine if the row exists on 3rdPartyMember Table and if it does not, Insert it
• If the row exists, determine if there is a First Name Change...Last Name Change...BirthDate change...Address Line 1 change...etc... If there is a change, Update 3rdPartyMember Table and also Insert a row to 3rdPartyMemberAuditTrail indicating the change

Based on all this, I'm just not sure the right way to approach this...meaning should we create one big Stored Procedure to handle everything or each individual data point in my SSIS as an UpSert based on its lookup. I am new to the SSIS World and don't really know what the generally accepted practice is per se of creating and running an SSIS Package with multiple data point update steps or doing so in one big Stored Procedure.

Also....if anyone know of some good YouTubes or web sites that would instruct me as to how to go about doing this, I'd GREATLY appreciate it.

Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Here's the challenge that I'm presented with. I've created a SSIS package that loops through a directory and reads multiple flat files loading all records to a single SQL table. What I would like to do is load a separate SQL table from each flat file read. BTW, the SQL table name can be the same as the flat file name. 

I would rate myself an advanced beginner with SSIS, so please consider that when replying.

Thanks for any help sent my way.

Hi,

I would like to execute SSIS package from stored procedure. Therefore, I implemented sp which exec SSISDB.CATALOG.CREATE_EXECUTION method. When I try to test it from SSMS on remote server, I got error that I was able to solve by adding “WITH EXECUTE AS …”. Then I got another error: The server principal "Domain\user" is not able to access the database "SSISDB" under the current security context. On Internet, I found a couple post that describe how to access SSIS catalog (one of them by Ke Yang - http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mattm/archive/2012/03/20/ssis-catalog-access-control-tips.aspx). It didn’t help. I’m still getting the error message.

How to debug this issue?

Any suggestion?

Thanks
