Custom SSIS Task Deployment
Oct 4, 2006
I've written several custom Control Flow and Data Flow components for SSIS. I'm trying to deploy a new Control Flow Task, however it will not show up in the "Choose Toolbox Items" window.
I have my dll's all in the right place. Because of other painful issues we have not used the GAC, and instead have put our DLL's that are referenced in the following directory: C:program filesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSBinn. This has worked fine for other custom tasks, but not for this one.
The only things that are different about this transform are the following:
1. Not only does the task inherit from Task, it also implements two interfaces that I wrote.
2. One of the assembly references is actualy an executable instead of a dll. This is unusual, but I've done it with other .NET projects and not had any trouble.
I could move the code I need from the EXE out to a DLL. If somebody knows what could be causing this please respond?

Hello All,
We have developed some custom tasks which we currently deploy the standard way. That is, we install the custom task assemblies in the DTSTasks folder and we also install the assemblies in the GAC. Due to some deployment practices we are trying to implement we would like to be able to remove the assemblies from the GAC and install them in some other location. I have tried installing the assemblies in the DTSBinn folder, but this does not appear to be working. When I drop the custom control flow tasks onto the package's control flow tab I get the "Cannot create a task with the name ..." error.
Is it possible to not have the custom task assemblies in the GAC? Are there any tricks to getting it to work?
FYI, our assemblies are signed. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with our troubles.
Thanks,
Rob

Hi all,
I'm having a nightmare trying to test my custom task.
I get the following error message when trying to add the task from the toolbox...
Cannot create a task with the name "myTask, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b8e53511af163eb7". Verify that the name is correct.
(Package)
------------------------------
Program Location:
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Executables.Add(String moniker)
at Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Design.DtsBasePackageDesigner.CreateExecutable(String moniker, IDTSSequence container, String name)
Any ideas?
Cheers.

Hi there,
I'm still pretty new to SSIS, what I am really battling with is getting a custom task to work.
I have developed a custom task, digitally signed it added it to the Global Assembly Cache, written the UI for it - Pretty much as it is done here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms136080.aspx
but my problem is that when I drag it from the tool box into the control flow pane, I get this message: "The task user interface specified by type name 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' could not be loaded.
(Microsoft.DatatransformationServices.Design).
Does anybody have an idea of what I am doing wrong here?
Duane.

Hi,
Near the end of 2005 Microsoft made available some sample C# apps that implemented custom SSIS tasks and components. I think Doug Ladenshlager may have had a heavy hand in building them.
Does anyone know where they are? I can't darned well find them!

Hi All,
I am using a Data Flow task which copies data from an Excel Source to a SQL Database Table Destination. From 15 columns I require only 10 columns to be imported to the DB Table. So I have mapped those colums. In SQL DB there is a colum called say X, whose value should be the "Remedy" for all the columns which are imported. Is there any task that can achieve it.
Please Help.

Hello All Experts,
I have created one custom task with PropertyGrid Control and two button on it. I have everything under one class library project.
Problem I am facing is when i load task and clik on Edit I can not see those properties into that GUI and even functionlity of those two buttons (OK and Cancel) not working but I am able to see those properties in default property window.
If I create this GUI as a seperate window application then I am able to see those properties in GUI and buttons also working but in SSIS I am not able to load the task.
After reading on internet about SSIS they suggest to create everything under one project which I did.
Basically I am trying to populate connection managers like Source Connection and Destination Connection when I load this task and there are much more backend functionlity but at first step i m stuck and not able to see those properties in GUI.
Please help and give your input on it. I was following "Increment Task" example given by MSDN.
If you need more info let me know.
Thanks

Hi Guys,
This is a question to the SSIS development team. I would like to know what are the requirements to implement custom SSIS Control Flow task in C++ . There is a documentation describing the process when implementing a managed task, but no such documentation exists for implementing a task in C++.
Thank you,
Ivan

I'm writing my first SSIS custom task. I have added Public properties, which appear in the standard task properties window, and to one of them I have added an EditorAttribute as follows:
   <Category("General"), _
   Browsable(True), _
   EditorAttribute(GetType(UIFileNameEditor), _
   GetType(System.Drawing.Design.UITypeEditor))> _
   Public Property FilesToArchive() As String
[Code] ....
When I select the FilesToArchive property in the Properties window, I get an ellipsis that appears in the property value. When I click on the ellipsis, it brings up the FolderBrowserDialog, which is defined in the UIFileNameEditor class. This all works fine.
What I want to do is to bring up the EditorUI, the one you get when you double click on the task, and also populate that with properties which can be edited. I have a class which inherits DTSBaseTaskUI, which is displayed when I double click on the task.
I can also get properties to be displayed in that UI but I cannot get them to be editable in that UI, using the same technique as in the standard Properties window, as described above.

I am writing my first custom SSIS task and I can see that, if I put a public property into the task, I see that property in the standard Properties window. If I add a property of type String, I can put a value in that property, in the task code, and when I instantiate the task in a package, I can see the value I entered.
To try and get a drop down list property in the Properties window, I declared a property of type Combobox, and indeed a drop down list appears in that property.
My problem is trying to get values in that property. I have used the test items:
   Property.Items.add("Fred")
   Property.Items.Add("Jim")
But I do not see the values in the drop down list. All I do see is one item with a value of "(none)".

HI,
I need to open a File through File connection manager and want to assign these file properties to SSIS precreated varibale or Newly created varibale. I want to show file properties in Propertygrid. Properties grid will conatin File Propeties Column and SSIS varibale Combobox column. The combo box will contain New variable field. When user select New Variable field, then a new SSIS varibale window will open and we can able create New variable and that Newly created variable should add to that property comboBox.
For Instance if we create a new varibale Name "Creationdate" by clicking on New Varible in ComboBox, then that CreationDate variable should add to Property ComboBox in PropertyGrid. After adding when we select that variable Name "Creationdate" then that selected file Creation date should assign to SSIS varibale "Creationdate" field.
Any Comments or sample will help me.

I am writing a custom task that has some custom properties. I would like to parameterize these properties i.e. read from a varaible, so I can change these variables from a config file during runtime.
I read the documentation and it says if we set the ExpressionType to CPET_NOTIFY, it should work, but it does not seem to work. Not sure if I am missing anything. Can someone please help me?
This is what I did in the custom task
customProperty.ExpressionType = DTSCustomPropertyExpressionType.CPET_NOTIFY;
In the Editor of my custom task, under custom properties section, I expected a button with 3 dots, to click & pop-up so we can specify the expression or at least so it evaluates the variables if we give @[User::VaraibleName]
Any help on this will be very much appreciated.
Thanks

Hey, I was just wondering if someone could point me in the right direction on an issue. I've got the authentication portion of a custom security extension working properly (while authorization is just sort of giving everyone a pass) and all of my Googling efforts seem to be bearing little fruit. Now that authentication is in place, whenever I try to deploy a report from Visual Studio, it comes up with an error.
The error is that it is getting the authentication html login page set in web.config (as I expected), while it was looking for an xml page. I'm a bit new to this side of things so I'm not really even sure where I should be looking to see what kind of xml page it wants and such.
I don't need anyone to bother explaining the entire thing to me as I should be able to figure it out once I can get a start, but as I said I just need a kick in the right direction because my Google-fu has failed

Hi,
Had anyone code a custom task UI and used the propertygrid like most of the SSIS components do?
I am having an issue while trying to get the connections from my UI FORM.
They way i did was to get the parent of the form (The package) and then get the connections but that will only work for the FORM if i use the property from the properties panel i throws an error because obviously i dont have the FORM neither the parent...
I now i should use the service provider and get the IDTSconnection... but somehow it always comes = "Nothing"....

Is there a way you can reference a prebuilt CLR function in a custom dataflow task?
The CLR and the custom dataflow task are one in the same. The reason that I'm designing the custom task is that I find that it's time consuming to make a call to the database to retrieve a function to work on something that's already in memory. Also, another reason is that if the code needs to be updated, it doesn't have to be done in 2 places allowing for less confusion.
I tried adding a reference to the CLR function in my SSIS dataflow task, but when I try running it in SSIS, I get the error saying it cannot use a SQL CLR defined task in the package which I believe is due to this reference in the CLR code:
[Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlFunction]
public static string toCase(string text, string caseType)
Is there a way to circumvent the [...SqlFunction] line of code when the DLL is referenced by an SSIS dataflow task, or do I just have to deal with having 2 copies of the same code?
Thanks in advance!

Hi All,
I am able to execute my ssis package from BID environment using SQL Server Authentication. However, when I deploy the package on SQL Serve 2005 using Windows Authentication, the package fails. The package is a simple one, it read two servers, truncate tables and load the data on the destination server.
I am not sure why this fails when I execute the package on the server environment, but works fine when I run it from BID.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I ahve read previous posts on this but didnt get a clear answer for what I am trying to do.
I have couple of SSIS packages running in y dev environment, we will be moving this into production soon. These pachakes will be called from the webapp to run once the flat files are uploaded.
Production environment has separate web server and Sql server box. Now how do I deploy the packages and where...on webserver or sql server box?
workflow is user uploads a file which is saved on the webserver and then the package will start to upload the data to the SQL Server db. I have seen that while storing the location of the flat file in the configuration file for the package it stores the hard coded path of the flat file is there a way for to save the UNC path or how can I tell the SSIS config file to look for the file on the webserver?
During deployment if I want to save the SSIS packages on to the SQL server do I still have to install SSIS components on the webserver...? or if I choose to save it as file system on the Webserver what do I neeed to install on the webserver so that the packages can be executed from the web app?
Excuse my long post but wanted to give a clear overview of the problem...
Appreciate your help in advance...

Several SSIS are deployed from a server A to a server B (Integration Services) with a SQL user and are stored in MSDB
- Most of the SSIS have their connection only after SSIS have been launched ; Delayvalidation is set to true.
- Application user the same SQL user from server A can launch the SSIS.
- But the same application on server C cannot launch the SSIS. The error is : OLE DB Connection error for the connection string
- Server A, B , C are Windows 2003 Server and belong to the same Windows Domain.
Can you suggest me some tips ?

Hi all,
I would like to deploy my SSIS project on the production server. As far as I know from the last deployment, I had to change configuration managers to data sources to the ones of the production server. I had to go through all packages and change it. What is the best way to do this? I.e. Can I do it through a configuration file?
Thanks.

I need to find a better way to handle DTS Job Failure issue. Currently, we have about 50 jobs which executed through DTS packages. Everytime when sources were not there or came in late, the DTS sent out an email to my page which I carried every day. Some those came in during the holidays even though I know the source party won’t generate the source files at that day.
Trying to avoid to get beep everytime when job was failed. Someone suggested that it is possible to add kind of executable file within the Custom task and let it trigger the DTS packages. If, for example, a holiday then don’t run the package so I won’t get the page.
Any hints suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I've created a custom task, and now I want to upgrade it. There's actually no change in the task itself, but I've changed the assembly version number, and now I need to upgrade all the tasks that reference the old version number.
So I rebuilt the task, and I created a policy assembly with a bindingRedirect that forwards to my new assembly. I removed the old version of the assembly from the GAC. All good so far - I've even run the task through the debugger, I open the package as "Reload with Upgrade", and the breakpoints in my CanUpdate, Update and Version overrides are being hit fine. This approach works fine in my custom pipeline components, and the PerformUpgrade override updates the UserComponentTypeName to reflect the new assembly version number (see Milen's post in http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=893641&SiteID=1).
But the task itself won't upgrade, or at least, it seems to require the old assembly version number. I get an error message:
Code SnippetThe task with the name "My Task" and the creation name "xx.xxx.MyTask, xxx.xxx, Version=0.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=xxxx" is not registered for use on this computer.
Has anyone got any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I've got 40 or so packages with 2 tasks in each, and I don't really want to have to delete and add them to each one ...
