| I am trying to retrieve the error column name information on redirected error rows at an OLEDB destination component. SSIS providing only Errorcode and ErrorColumn information. I get the value of the ErrorColumn integer is also the LineageID, but I'm not sure how to use that to get the Error Column Name. I've search google and can't seem to find an answer or script for this. Is there an updated method to finding this out? |

SSIS - Triple nested for each loop not taking values of second iteration
Hi all,
I have an SSIS package that needs to loop over 3 containers before executing a stored procedure.
The problem is that the result of the stored procedure contains NULL for the second result of my iteration.
When I debug the package before going into the stored procedure, all variables contain a value.
Is anyone familiar with this issue? THe configuration in the foreach loops seems correct
Loop over each stratum
-Variable Stratums object
-Variable stratum integer
Loop over each regional office
-Variable RegionalOffices object
-Variable RegionalOffice string
The SQL - CALCULATE MIN/MAX/AVG contains all 4 varibales
-InvoiceDate, Stratum, RegionalOffice and Bonus year

Querying SSIS XML definition - package deployment method
Hello,
I need to query the xml defintion of SSIS packages which we have deployed using the package deployment method.
These packages do not exist on the msdb.dbo.sysssispackages table but on the catalog.packages table on the SSISDB database.
Is there a way of querying these packages? We are using SQL 2014 and deployed the packages using Visual Studio 2013.
Thanks

Is BIML really useful?
Hi All,
Using BIML we can write a code in XML like format and create SSIS package out of it. This can be used when repetitive tasks are to be performed and we can use the same BIML code and use it to create package.
But I think that to write this code in first place, we should know the code/tags first and better way is to copy paste the existing package and change it manually from UI itself.
So how BIML is so different here?

Use Variable in Config File To Set path and exe in Execute Process Task
Trying to use a user variables to concatinate the file path and command file name to run a simple file copy in an execute process task in order to not hard code this information in the package as it will change across environments. I have the use variables
set up and use the expression builder to concatinate the 2 variables to set the executable property at run time to them ( here is the expression, @[User::BatchJobsPath] + @[User::CopyCmdFileName]). I set the executable to a dummy.bat file
name to get around the design time error, I have set the config file to be confirgured for these 2 variables as shown below, but get an error "the executable is not specified" when I try to run the execute process task.
Should be simple enough, set a couple variables in a config file to resolve the executable at run time, what I am doing wrong? is there an easier way?
</Configuration>
-<Configuration ValueType="String" Path="\Package.Variables[User::BatchJobsPath].Properties[Value]" ConfiguredType="Property">
<ConfiguredValue>C:\CommandFiles\</ConfiguredValue>
</Configuration>
-<Configuration ValueType="String" Path="\Package\Copy TestXLS.Variables[User::CopyCmdFileName].Properties[Value]" ConfiguredType="Property">
<ConfiguredValue>CopyTest.bat</ConfiguredValue>
</Configuration>
</DTSConfiguration>

SSIS designer (VS2013) customize look when disabling a task
I am in used to creating SSIS packages in VS2008 and it was very easy to see when the task was disabled. The gray color was very distinguishable from the tasks that were not. Now with the new designer for VS2013, both enabled and disabled look very much alike using the gray color as the background.
Has any one found this difficult too to distinguish between enabled and disabled tasks?
Have you been able to change something to be able to see it more clearly?
By the way, in my opinion I also like better when the whole task turns colors instead of a little icon on the right. It easier to see when having big SSIS packages and needing to confirm all tasks ran successfully.
Thanks!

Colors of Sequence Containers
Today, I'm being a pest.
I've made an SSIS package with several Sequence Containers and assorted tasks that are uncontained. However, all those white box headers makes it hard to visually comprehend.
So, I wondered if it's possible to color the boxes associated to the Sequence Containers. I didn't see any color options in the Properties window, so I figure the answer is "No," but I thought there might be a back-door way to do it.
Is there?
Thanx in advance!
Oh, forgot - I'm using Visual Studio 2008.

SSISDB Security Granularity
Hi,
I have a scenario where we have deployed the SSIS project using the Project Deployment model. We are done with the development and we have to hand over the deliverables to the testing team. Although the SSIS runs via a SQL Server job, but the testers may need to play around with the project parameters during multiple cycles of testing.
I have looked through a number of articles online but all of them suggest granting the user (Tester) access to the project folder under SSISDB.
My requirement is to grant them just enough access so that they can play around with the just the project parameters. Otherwise I would not have any other option but to give them the access to the full folder.
Cheers!!

Sensitive check for SSIS catalog environment variables not visible in the Management Studio - SQL Server 2014
Hi,
I'm working on a remote vm having a SQL Server 2014 installation.
In particular, I'm creating some environment variables for a SSIS solution deployed in the SSIS catalog, but I cannot set the sensitive check to obscure the password for a connection.
I've tried to change the screen resolution (really, when I access via rdp on the machine, this resolution is unchanged), the icon dimension, the size of the font visible in the control panel, without any results.
How could I solve this issue, please? Thanks

Convert all output columns from text file to null if blank
I have a flat file data source going to a SQL Server table. There are over 300 columns. Many of them are blank, and if they're blank I want them to be null in the destination table. Currently I have a derived column transform that does this.
THREE HUNDRED TIMES.
I know that you can't see all of it. The basic idea is
(DT_STR,100,1252)((DT_STR,100,1252)TRIM(BUS_UNIT_DESC) == "" ? (DT_STR,100,1252)NULL(DT_STR,100,1252) : (DT_STR,100,1252)TRIM(BUS_UNIT_DESC))
Is there an easy way to do this kind of thing? The only issue I could see with some kind of "automation" of this is that fields all have different lengths as seen above. Most are 50, but some are 100, etc.
An update to the table after the fact is just not feasible. There are tens of millions of rows and updating with an NULLIF or something is out of the question.
Thanks!

SAP BW - Microsoft Connector - How to configure
I just need some clarification on where/how to setup and use the microsoft connector for sap bw.
I have microsoft sql server 2014 running on a large server. The database and ssis services are running.
On my desktop/client, I'm running the development studio. I've created and deployed ssis packages from by desktop/client to the server running the database and ssis.
I now wish to get data from sap bw and load into my database server using ssis.
1. Where do I install the microsoft connector? My ssis development will be on my desktop but, if I try and install there, I get an error stating ssis is not installed.
2. If I install the microsoft client on the server running the db and ssis services, do I then have to use the development studio from that server or can I still use the one on my desktop?
Thanks for any clarification.

Restricting number of decimals in flat file export
Hi,
I have an SSIS package which gets its data from a query executed on the database. I need to load this data into a flat file. I am using ragged right export, so my destination has fixed length fields.
Now I have a float field named "Amount" in the source which has to be restricted to the format 000000000.00. I get Amount in this format by using CAST(Amount AS DECIMAL(11,2)) in the query. But when this data is loaded into the flat file it is loading a number of digits after the decimal like for example instead of 3383626.63 it is displaying 3383626.6299999999. Since my destination file has fixed length field this is resulting in an error.
The error description is this - "[Flat File Destination [1178]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "Amount" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".
Please help me with this issue.

SSIS Task Won't Execute
Hi,
Attached screen is a partial flow of my SSIS which the Foreach Loop Container is not being executed. From my first design, I only have the Foreach Loop Container which runs fine without issue. Due to programming spec changes, I added the Expression Task and process A to run prior to execute the Foreach Loop Container. Once I did that, SSIS stop at either the completion of the task A on Sunday or it stop before execute the Foreach Loop Container on weekday. Any idea why it does not execute the Foreach Loop Container? Did I miss something here?
Thanks,
