Check To See If File Exist On Server
Nov 9, 2007
Hi Folks,
I'm attempting to check to see if a file exists on our server before showing a link it.
I put this function in the Report Properties:
Code Block
Function isFile(PathFileName As String) As Boolean
Return isFile = System.IO.FileExists(PathFileName)
End Function
I chose a situation where I'm getting back two rows of data, one row is true and the other row is false however, when I run the report they're both coming back as 'True'.
We created a virtual directory to the file system that houses our files, so my PathFileName variable will contain something like http://Sales/North/Sales110907.pdf.
Can I use the FileExists in this fashion or am I going down the wrong path?
I appreciate any help you can give.
Best regards,

Hi All,
1)My source files[.txt] come from an FTP server.I need to find a way to include within my SSIS package,a task that would watch a certain folder of the FTP Server and send a mail notification as soon as the file arrives.Tried using filewatcher task http://www.sqlis.com/23.aspx, but the task stays "yellow" for a long time while package is being excuted.I dont know if this is what I need to use.Are they any other task/ways?
Another Problem I'm facing is;
2)If the source file coming in the FTP Server is zipped.How do I unzip the file and move it back to the FTP Server folder for the task in 1) to watch on it .Any ideas ?

We have a database called Itemphotos. In this table is a field called 'PID' picture ID. We have a photos directory with files like 2181.jpg, 2182.jpg, 2184.jpg. The number is the ID number for the picture of the part. If a record exist in the database based on the PID "Primary Key" , check the directory to make sure the jpg file exist. Here is the code I have so far.
use [ItemPhotos]
select pid from dbo.itemdata
declare @file_path nvarchar(500)
declare @file_exists
int set @file_path = 'av-sql2c$inetpubphotosmacolaphotos' + [itemdata].[pid]
[code]....

I know how to check for a sinle vlaue but how do I chekc to see if multiple values exist. I need to check for certain email addresses from a list that I have.
Let us say I ahve 3 email addresses, I want to check for all of them in a table and for eevery email address that is present I want to print something like "You email address is XXX" and if one of those 3 is not found my results should look like
"You email address is XXX"
YYYYY not found
"You email address is ZZZZ"
I'm attaching some TSQL that I tried on [AdventureWorks2012].[Person].[EmailAddress]
/****** Select ALL if where an email address is present in the list ******/
SELECT EmailAddressID,EmailAddress
FROM [AdventureWorks2012].[Person].[EmailAddress]
WHERE EmailAddress IN
(
'ken0@adventure-works.com', --1
'terri0@adventure-works.com', --2
[Code] ....
-- Test to see if a single email address is present
IF EXISTS
(
SELECT EmailAddress FROM [AdventureWorks2012].[Person].[EmailAddress]
WHERE EmailAddress IN ('25rob0@adventure-works.com')
)
BEGIN
SELECT 'Email address is presnt'
[Code] ....
When I check multiples using EXISTS it works as per its design and says YES even if a single item is present.

Hi guys help please..is there a function in MS SQL that check if a particular value exist in a row and would return a boolean value base from what found, Return True if it found something and False if it does not found one. I've try the EXISTS function but I cant get the rigth syntax..Any help will be greatly appreciated!
OR Maybe you can help me directly with my problem. I want to check first in my Table 1 with 3 columns if value X exists in column 1 and if X exists UPDATE that column with value Y and if value X does not exists INSERT something in the Table 1. Any suggestion or Comments will be greatly appreciated!

Okay, I have the following statement for my store procedure:
Code Snippet
IF exists (SELECT [ID], [title], [name], [issueID] FROM [Outlook] WHERE ([issueID] = @OLissueID))
SELECT [ID], [title], [name], [issueID] FROM [Outlook] WHERE ([issueID] = @OLissueID)
ELSE
SELECT null ID, 'No parent page yet' title FROM Outlook
I wanted to put an ELSE IF statement right before the ELSE statement to check if the value is null. Something like this:
IF exists (SELECT [ID], [title], [name], [issueID] FROM [Outlook] WHERE ([issueID] = @OLissueID))
SELECT [ID], [title], [name], [issueID] FROM [Outlook] WHERE ([issueID] = @OLissueID)
ELSE IF (SELECT [ID], [title], [name], [issueID] FROM [Outlook] WHERE ([issueID] = @OLissueID) != null
SELECT [ID], [title], [name], [issueID] FROM [Outlook] WHERE ([issueID] = @OLissueID)
ELSE
SELECT null ID, 'No parent page yet' title FROM Outlook
Or if this is possible, it's much better:
IF exists (SELECT [ID], [title], [name], [issueID] FROM [Outlook] WHERE ([issueID] = @OLissueID) AND (SELECT [ID], [title], [name], [issueID] FROM [Outlook] WHERE ([issueID] = @OLissueID) != null)
SELECT [ID], [title], [name], [issueID] FROM [Outlook] WHERE ([issueID] = @OLissueID)
ELSE
SELECT null ID, 'No parent page yet' title FROM Outlook
I don't quite get how to write the SQL statement that I wanted so any help is much appreciated.

Hello,
I have a dynamic query in the stored procedure, and the code looks something like this:
SET @section_test = 'SELECT sectioncode FROM ' + @tablename + ' WHERE sectioncode = "' + @condition + '"'
EXEC (@section_test)
What I need to do is try to check if the query returns any values using EXISTS (possibly), but at the same time I don't want to return the results of that dynamic query's select statement in my stored procedure. Is it possible?
Thanks.

I this example below on another website and have changed the connection string to reflect my settings. The password has been stared out for security reasons. It's not the way it actually appears in the script. This keeps erroring out on line 21 saying expected end of statement.

Hi All,
We have a SSIS package which is accessing a remote Windows file share location.
The package first moves the file from folder-1 to folder-2 and also renames the file during this process.
Then the package reads the file (using a flat file connection FF_SRC) from folder-2 and renames it again after processing it successfully.
The permissions given to the user executing the package on folder-2 are: Read+Write+Modify+List folder contents.
We are facing an error:
Code SnippetFile or directory "Z:folder-2XYZ.txt" represented by connection "FF_SRC" does not exist.
We are getting the above error when the SSIS package is trying to rename the file the second time in folder-2.
However, the file exists in folder-2.
The OS is Windows 2000 Server SP4.
Any ideas why this could be happening and how it could be resolved?
Best Regards,
Avnip

I need to create a script task in sql server 2008 R2 to check if a file exists in a directory. For example, to see if output.dat exist under c:results. If the file exists, then send out an email stating the file exists, if not then send out another email stating the file does not exists.I noticed there is a huge difference between the script task in sql 2005 and sql 2008 r2.

usual way to check if file exists
DECLARE @File_Exists INT
EXEC Master.dbo.xp_fileexist 'serverBSQL_Backupfile.bak', @File_Exists OUT
print @File_Exists
1
And if check folder, can use "nul", but it doesn't work for UNC path
DECLARE @File_Exists INT
EXEC Master.dbo.xp_fileexist 'serverBSQL_Backupul', @File_Exists OUT
print @File_Exists
0
If use xp_subdirs like:
EXEC master.dbo.xp_subdirs 'serverBSQL_Backups'
If the folder doesn't exists, Msg 22006, Level 16, State 1, Line 3 xp_subdirs could not access 'ServerBSQL_Backups*.*': FindFirstFile() returned error 67, 'The network name cannot be found.'
how to check if UNC folder exists in Backup? in my code I want to check if the unc folder exists before doing backup, the unc path is retrieved from other table or backup history.

I am wondering how easy is to check for file locks and have our SSIS Package to wait until file has been release by the process which is using it.
Also, same question when we're writing to a Flat File (or Flat File Destination).

i have used expression for the out file name to add date values to the out put file name using expression window
for example the output file is department05032008, my biggest problem over here at this moment is i need to suffix the file name if the file executes more then one time. ( requirment is i cannot use timestamp)
for example today my output file name is department05032008, the next hour the package executes it the file name should be department05032008A, then department05032008B and so on .
can i suffix the file name in expression window where i am generating the output file name , if possible i want to avoid the vb script as i am not good at it.

Hi,
I need to set up create a package so that I could check the date of the files posted in a folder, e.g. H:source. If there is no file created later than one day exists, then continue to check again one hour later. If files do exists, then copy then to c:dest and then upzip the files. Once this is done, sent an notification email to user@mydomain.com.

Hello
I am trying to bulk insert a text file into SQL 2005 table. When I execute the bulk insert I get the error
"Msg 4860, Level 16, State 1, Line 1. Cannot bulk load. The file "\ENDUSER-SQLEnduserTextB1020063.txt" does not exist."
The text file that it is saying does not exist I recently created thru my code. I can open the file but only when I rename the file will the Bulk Insert work. After creating the text file I am moving it to the server that SQL server is running on. Also if I run sp_FileExists it also says the file does not exist unless again I rename the file then this stored procedure recognizes the file. I dont' know if I have a permission issue or what is the problem. Any help would be appreiated.
Thanks
Chris

I've done some searcing on this forum and online. I found one thread that talked about this problem, but it didn't seem to help me at all.
I have a package that downloads an xml file from a ftp server for processing. The file is named after the day that it was put on the ftp server. So, to help the situation I created a variable that gets set to the proper name before the FTP Task fires.
Now, I've been working with this SSIS task for just over 2 months and haven't seen this issue ONCE until I deployed it on the production helper server. All of my other SSIS tasks are working fine in my other Tasks.
I have set DelayValidation to true for the FTP Task, I have moved around the time the task gets run. This is what is really tricky. If I fire off the task manually (by running the batch file that runs all my tasks on the console) it works fine! I've ran it 3-4 times throughout the day manually and it works perfectly! However, whenever it is scheduled to be run in the middle of the night, it fails!
This problem has stumped me good. I can run the task manually, but when I run it scheduled, I get : File represented by "User::ftpXmlPath" does not exist.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I have a Parent package and a child package.
I have hard coded the value for the User::FilePath variable in the parent package.
I am mapping this variable to the value of the same variable in the Child Package.
I created a directory and sql file: "C: empsqlb.sql". I have verified that the path variable value is passed to the child package by using a Script task with a messgbox call.
How do I define an execute sql task to execute sql file: @[User::FilePath] & "sqlb.sql". I'm using this expression for the SqlStatementSource property. I have entered the OLEDB server information and specified the SQLSourceType = fileconnection.
However I get the error:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Connection manager "D:
lewisdevZsqlb.sql" does not exist.

My colleague is working on bulk insert task from SSIS and since the data file does not contain any valid delimeter one of the suggestion he got is to use a file format to address the issue. Thus a bcp command is used to generate the format file, as per below.
bcp <database name>.dbo.<table name> format nul -T -S <server name> -n -f out.fmt
The file file format was generated, from the data flow we added the BULK INSERT task and set the properties accordingly including the File Format and location of the file. Upon running the task itself we encountered the error as per below.
[Bulk Insert Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot bulk load. The file "C:HFISTAT.fmt" does not exist.".
Progress: The Bulk Insert task is completed. - 100 percent complete
Task Bulk Insert Task failed
Have checked the file and it is in C: drive and it is not protected or read-only. Validated the output file and it is as per expected. Any help would be appreciated very much.
