DFT OLEDB Source Returning Empty Rows
Nov 19, 2007
I have had at least 2 occurences of a DFT OLEDB source returning the correct number of rows but all rows are empty (they contain zeros or ''). This has happened in two different places in different SSIS packages within an ETL task. In one case the source was on a different server running SQLServer and in the other it was a different database on the same server as the SSIS package. This occured running on different servers, one with SQL 2005 SP2 and the other without. Both are 64 bit AMD systems running 64 bit SQL 2005. As there is a derived column transformation that has performed the derivation on the blank columns I assume the problem is with the OLEDB source but it could be with the data stream from the OLEDB source to to whatever follows. Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone know of a fix?

[One day I will come back here and answer questions, rather than only ask.]
I have a custom connection manager that returns an OleDbConnection. The only thing "custom" about the connection manager is how it determines its connection string. The object returned in AcquireConnection is an OleDbConnection.
Code:public override object AcquireConnection(object txn)
{
UpdateConnectionString();
OleDbConnection oleDbConnection = new OleDbConnection(this.connectionString);
oleDbConnection.Open();
return oleDbConnection;
}
Some of the objects within SSIS only work with an OleDbConnection, but mine is not recognized as such. Is there any way to have my connection recognized as a valid connection?
Thanks in advance.

All,
I'm having an issue with the Flat File Data Flow Source returning only a limited set of the rows that are in the flat file. Basically, I connect to the flat file fine, it goes to retrieve the data (tab delimited file) and only returns 190 of 392 rows. Is there a limitation on the # of rows this data flow source can retrieve or something? I've look all through the settings and properties of the task as well as the connection manager and nothing is obvious as to what is causing this. Hopefully someone ou tthere has run into this before and can help me retrieve all rows. Thanks in advance!

Hi all,
I got an error when i do an OLE db Source pointing to an sql 2000 database and executing a sql query inside the OLE Source. The ole source will point to an OLE DB destination which is an sql 2005 database.
But i got the below error:
Error at Data Flow Task [OLE DB Destination [245]]: the column firstname cannot be processed because more than one code page (936 and 1252) are specified for it.
Error at Data Flow Task [DTS.Pipeline]: "component "OLE DB destination" (245)" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_ISBROKEN".
Error at Data Flow Task [DTS.Pipeline]: One or more component failed validation.
Error at Data Flow TaSK: There were errors during task validation.

I am using a SQLDataSource with the following Select query. If the "spouse" values are not in the database, I get the HTML non-breaking-space character back, rather than an empty string.
SelectCommand="select applicant_id, (applicant_last_name + ', ' + applicant_first_name) as applicant_name, CONVERT(varchar(10), applicant_dob, 101) as applicant_dob, applicant_ssn, (spouse_last + ', ' + spouse_first) as spouse_name, CONVERT(varchar(10), spouse_dob, 101) as spouse_dob, spouse_ssn from applicant where applicant_last_name like '%'+@last_name+'%' order by applicant_last_name"
Here is the relevant code-behind:
TextBox tb = (TextBox)formView.FindControl("SpouseName");
tb.Text = e.Item.Cells[4].Text;
DatePicker dp = (DatePicker)formView.FindControl("SpouseDateOfBirth");
if (e.Item.Cells[5].Text.Length > 0)
{
try // this is a try/catch because nbsp is not parsed as a date
{
dp.DateValue = DateTime.Parse(e.Item.Cells[5].Text);
}
catch
{
dp.txtDate.Text = "";
}
}
tb = (TextBox)formView.FindControl("SpouseSocialSecurityNumber");
tb.Text = e.Item.Cells.Text;
Thoughts?

I've built a simple VS2005 ASP.Net web app that uses Crystal Reports for generating assorted reports. More specifically, when a report is called it executes the correct SQL Server Stored Procedure and returns a Data Table populated with with appropriate data. In my testing, everything seemed to be working fine.But I just did a test where I pressed the "Submit" button on two different client browsers at almost the same time. Without fail, one browser returns the report as it should but the other one returns an empty report; all of the Crystal Reports template info is there but the report is just empty of data. Considering that each browser is running in its own session, I'm confused about why this is happening.One thing: I did login as the same user in both cases. Might this be causing the problem?Robert W.Vancouver, BC

I was having one package which uses a source query in OLEDB Source Control and fetches the record and a couple of lookups and then an oledb command to insert/update the records in the table using as SP. I changed the source query(Infact the package) and removed in lookup and a different SP was called similar to the old one. But my problem is the package which was before taking only minutes to update 50,000 records is now taking more than 2 hrs. The problem is the number of records it is fetching from the source each time is very less.. its fetching hardly 500 records a time compared to nearly 2500 records before. Where am i going wrong? Any suggestion greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I am running an MDX query in SSIS but I don't know what is the best way of doing this, performance wise.
I know I can run the MDX query through an openquery in the OLEDB, and also run it through a Datareader, no openquery needed.
I know the datareader is slower in a normal basis due to .Net, but in this case the OLEDB is running an open query to a linked server which won't be fast like running a regular SQL.
If anyone knows which of this two run faster in this scenario I'll appretiate if you let me know.

Hi,
Firtsly - I am new to SSIS if my approach could be improved then I welcome suggestions.
Scenario: I have a large SSIS package that consolidates / summarizes work week information from several data sources. Currently each data flow task in the control flow calculates the from and to date that is filtered on, for example:
DECLARE @FromDT AS DATETIME
SET @FromDT = CAST(FLOOR( CAST( DATEADD(D, -7, GETDATE()) AS FLOAT ) ) AS DATETIME)
DECLARE @ToDT AS DATETIME
SET @ToDT = CAST(FLOOR( CAST( GETDATE() AS FLOAT ) ) AS DATETIME)
I would like to remove these statements that appear in most steps and replace them with a global variable that is used throughout the package. This statement would only appear once & it would make the package much easier to run after failure etc.
Problem: I am using Data Reader Source with the 'SQLCommand' property specified. It looks like parameters are only supported if an OleDB connection is used?
So I switched to an OleDB connection and no parameters are recognised in the string - a forum search reveals that parameters in sub queries are not always found properly. The solution to this problem appears to be, to set 'Bypass Prepare' to True but this is a property for the Execute SQL task, not the Data Flow Task source.
Questions:
Does the Data Reader Source control from Data Flow Source toolbox section support parameters?
Can anyone suggest a fix to the OleDB Source issue with Parameters?
Is there a better way to solve my problem e.g. Using Execute SQL Task instead of Data Flow tasks etc
Example SQL:
This SQL is an example of the SQL for the OleDB Data Source (within a Data Flow task)
------------------------------
--RADIUS LOGINS
------------------------------
DECLARE @FromDT AS DATETIME
SET @FromDT = CAST(FLOOR( CAST( DATEADD(D, -7, GETDATE()) AS FLOAT ) ) AS DATETIME)
DECLARE @ToDT AS DATETIME
SET @ToDT = CAST(FLOOR( CAST( GETDATE() AS FLOAT ) ) AS DATETIME)
DECLARE @Attempts AS BIGINT
SET @Attempts =
(SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM dbo.Radius_Login_Records
WHERE LoggedAt BETWEEN @FromDT AND @ToDT)
DECLARE @Failures AS BIGINT
SET @Failures =
(SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM dbo.Radius_Login_Records
WHERE LoggedAt BETWEEN @FromDT AND @ToDT
AND Authen_Failure_Code IS NOT NULL)
DECLARE @Successes AS BIGINT
SET @Successes = @Attempts - @Failures
DECLARE @OcaV1Hits AS BIGINT
SET @OcaV1Hits = (SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT LoginName)
FROM dbo.Radius_Login_Records
WHERE LoggedAt BETWEEN
@FromDT AND @ToDT
AND EAPTypeID = 25)
DECLARE @OcaV2Hits AS BIGINT
SET @OcaV2Hits = (SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT LoginName) AS OcaV2Hits
FROM dbo.Radius_Login_Records
WHERE LoggedAt BETWEEN
@FromDT AND @ToDT
AND EAPTypeID = 13)
SELECT
@Attempts AS ConnectionAttempts,
@Failures AS ConnectionFailures,
(CAST(@Successes AS DECIMAL(38,2)) / CAST(@Attempts AS FLOAT) * 100) AS SuccessRate,
@OcaV1Hits AS OcaV1Hits,
@OcaV2Hits AS OcaV2Hits
Please remember, I'm new to SSIS - so be detailed in your response. Thanks for your help!

Hi,
I am trying to do a lookup for a value in a codes table and if that code is not there; add it to the table, my problem is if the lookup table is blank no records to begin with it will not add any data, that means the data source is empty so there no data going thru the data pipeline. So how do I get data in the table if we start with an empty table? If I am not clear I can explain it more.
Thank

I am debugging a Data Flow task in my SSIS package. When I run the package in debug mode, one of the OLEDB Data Sources turns red. I have rerouted all Error Output to a flat file, and put a Data Viewer on that path: no rows get sent. When I click the Preview button on this component in Design mode, I see the expected data and get no error messages. The connection does a simple table access...no SQL command. I don't see anything different between this component and other OLEDB sources in the same package that don't trigger any errors. I've tried dropping and re-creating the component with the same results.
What else can I do to debug this?

Guys,
I am having a nightmarish time getting an Oracle Connection Manager working as a source in my SSIS package.
The CM is called "OLTP_SOURCE". When I inspect the configuration and test connection, it succeeds, however when I go to run the package (both in debug mode and via DTEXECUI) I get the following error:
The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "OLTP_SOURCE" failed with error code 0xC0202009
After this happens, if I go into an OLE DB Source within a DFT, I get the following:
No disconnected record set is available for the specified SQL statement.
Now, if I go back into the CM, enter the password and test, it succeeds. From this point, I will go to preview the data in the OLE DB Source, and it comes back fine. However, when I go to run the package, I get the same error time and time again:
The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "OLTP_SOURCE" failed with error code 0xC0202009
The quick reader will suggest that the password is not being persisted. To this end, I have tried each of the following techniques to no avail:
1. Double, Triple and Quadruple check that the "save" password option in the CM is checked.
2. Hardcode the connection string in the dtsx XML-behind.
3. Enable Package Configurations and hardcode the connection string in the dstsconfig file.
4. Run the dtsx file using DTEXECUI, providing it with the configuration (that includes the hard-coded password).
5. Run the dtsx file using DTEXECUI, providing it the connection string in the Connection Managager override UI.
Can anyone help shed some light on what might be going on? So far, it is obvious that there has to be something that I am doing wrong because (syntax dialect differences aside) I can't imagine that Oracle sources should be this much of a headache.
Thanks,
Rick

A little background first. I have a header table and a detail table in my staging area/ods. I need to join them together to flatten them out for load. The Detail Table is pretty deep - approx 100 million rows.
If I use the setting (table or view) and set the table name (say, the detail table), the package starts up nicely. But if I switch the OLE DB Source to using a SQL Statement and then join the tables in the SQL, then the Pre-Execute phase of the package takes a VERY long time. I have waited as long as 30 minutes for this phase to complete, but it never finished.
Another twist...If I take the join select statement out of the OLEDB Source and put it in a view on the server, then swith the OLE DB Source to look at the view using the (table or view) mode, then the package gets through the Pre-Execute phase just fine.
Can someone go into detail as to what the Pre-Execute phase does and why a deep table might make it take a long time? I know already that the pre-execute phase caches the lookups, but not much else.
Any help?

Hi,
at first...
Yes, I have seen this post http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=366077&SiteID=1 and yes, my Stored Procedure contains a "Set nocount on"...
:-)
My Stored Procedure contains variable SQL-Code to check a table (given by parameter) against some masterdata tables and I would like to write the result of the check to a flatfile to be able to send it via mail.
but evoking the Stored procedure brings up no meta data for the Flatfile Destination - the preview works...
any other hints?
except for doing the ckeck completely in SSIS?
:-P

Hello All,
I understand that the parser is having issues parsing my second command but I was wonder if anyone had stumbled on a work around for this:
-- OLEDB Source has no problem with this:
SELECT *
FROM some_table
where
last_update_dt = ?
-- OLEDB Source errors on this:
SELECT *
FROM some_table
where
Convert( char(12), last_update_dt, 112 ) = Convert( char(12), Cast( ? as DateTime), 112 )
The first SQL statement won't return the desired rows because of the wonderful time stamp, the second works well but the provider won't parse it. I have used the "SQL command from variable" to work around this but we have some tables with 200+ columns, so the only way to use the "SQL command from variable" is to do a select *, which I'm trying to avoid, for both performance reasons and company standards.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Raymond

i need to select data by using a very complex sql statement. when i use a ole db source componente and choose SQL command as data access mode the process never ends. but when i put the sql statement in an sql task component it works fine and fast. isn't an oledb source always based on an sql statement (select *)? so how is it possible that this component becomes so slow?

Hi All,
Is it possible that an OLEDB Data Flow Source is imposing locks on the source tables? The source is an SQL Server OLTP environment, and although the package will be scheduled to run nightly when the application sees little to no use, I want to be sure that the process isn't impacting any application functions.
Thanks for the advice!

Hi,
I have created lastUpdatedDate variable on package level. I have run a sql task and store a date in that variable.
now i am trying to pass that variable as parameter to oledb source connection (using command). it seems that we cant pass parameter in any sub query or derived table in query. its only working in outer query as soon as we place ? in WHERE clause of inner query it start throwing an 'Syntax Error' error saying that connection provider might not support that.
any idea ?????
I dont want to use command variables as my query is going to be quite big.
Note : I have tried Sql Server Native and OLEDB provider for sql server and this behaviour is seems to be constant in both.
Thanks,

Hi,
I'm using an OLEDBSource to select some data and then putting to in a Flat File destination.
However, when I look at the data in the OLEDBSource, they´re like this:
1. id
2. name
3. address
...but in the flatfile it comes out in the wrong order.
How can I fix this?
Thank you so much.

This might be an ignorant question, but I can't figure this out.
What is the purpose of the Error output data flow from the OLEDB Source? I am trying to understand an example of what kind of "error" would cause a row to go down this path, and I can't come up with one.
Does anyone have a good example of how this could be useful?

hello guys,
I have 10 tables, table1, table2, table3, table4.......table10. all these tables have different structure.
From each of these tables I want extract data and dump into flat file csv.
So i have OLEDB source and FlatFile Destination.
If i write seperate data flow task for each of the tables, then there is no issue.
But i want to use a single data flow task for all these tables. So for this, i use a variable @SQLStr . And i dynamically set the value of this variable to select * from table1, select * from table2.........selct * from table10.
So in the OLEDB source I select Data Access Mode as : SQL Command from variable. And I use @SQLStr for this varible.
For Destination, i dynamically generate the flat file for each of the table.
But this doesnt work, i get validation errors.
So, first can i use a single data flow task to dynamically change the source(different source tables) and destination. If so, what i am missing in the above process?
any help appriciated.
Thanks

Slow OLEDB Source in Data Flow
Hi All,
I have a simple data flow task, composed of only an OLEDB Source, a Conditional Split, and two Execute SQL statements (both insert statements, one after the other). When I run my package in Visual Studio for debugging, I noticed that after executing around ~9800 in the first and another ~9800 records in the second insert statements, the OLEDB Source will take around 3 or 4 minutes to fetch another set of ~9800 records. I have set the DefaultBufferMaxRows property of the Data Flow to 10000. My query to retrieve those 700,000 records runs for about 2-3 mins to finish (which I think should be decent enough). Is this an expected behavior of SSIS? The expected number of records to be retrieved is 700,000, and it takes forever to finish the transfer of these records. Please help

Hi,
I have an Excel source, which I have hooked up to a Data Conversion task. I have defined "Output Aliases" for all my columns in the Data Conversion task.
However, when I try to map the columns from the Data Conversion task to the table columns, there is a list of column names, which do not correspond to the names I defined as "Output Aliases."
For example, one of the Output Aliases is "col1." However, when I go to map it, the column name is not "col1" but "My Excel file.col1".
Why is this happening? I have not had this problem before.

We have a complicated select query that needs to build a couple temporary work tables that are then used in the final select statement (in an OLEDB Source data flow control). We can click preview and see the resultset, but if we click on the Columns view there are no columns. We can save and close the OLEDB Source control but downstream from it there are messages saying that there are no input columns. The T-SQL looks something like this (abbreviated):
SELECT fieldlist INTO #temp1 FROM table
SELECT fieldlist INTO #temp2 FROM table
SELECT fieldlist FROM table INNER JOIN #temp1 INNER JOIN #temp2
DROP TABLE #temp1; DROP TABLE #temp2
Has anyone been able to use temp tables in a source SQL statement in a data flow? Are we doing something wrong or incomplete?
Thanks, Gordy

I am adding two OLE DB Source components to my pipeline and giving them different names
(via the Sourcename variable) but like they are assuming default name and description i.e. OLE DB Source which is causing the following error message on opening the package that was generated.
The package contains two objects with the duplicate name of "component "OLE DB Source" (37)" and "component "OLE DB Source" (1)"
Here is how I am doing it, in the debugger the names in both instances seem to have set correctly based on the variable but when saved they are lost. What am I doing wrong here?
IDTSComponentMetaData90 source = dataFlowTask.ComponentMetaDataCollection.New();
source.Name = Sourcename;
source.ComponentClassID = "DTSAdapter.OleDbSource.1";
source.Description = Sourcename;

I'm importing from a SQL table that has data fields typed as numeric(18,2) and the OLEDB data source component converts the data to integers (as viewed in the data viewer). I've preceeded the column names with (DT_NUMERIC,18,2) with no results. When the data gets saved to a table with the field typed as money, it appends .00. The truncation of pennies (decimal) results in the diminution of the daily results as much as $1,000. How do I pass the pennies through the OLEDB data source component? Is this truncation by default,or is there something I'm missing in the configuration? thanks.

Hi All,
I have a particular issue that has been causing me some problems for a while. I have an SSIS package that imports an excel file into my database, and then performs various data manipulation that I won't go into. The problem I am having is at the import end. The excel source file I am working on is provided to me by my client. It is a fixed format and doesn't change, it contains a header row and there are 32 headings. The trouble I am having is that quite often, the last column is empty, i.e. it contains no data. The header is still there, but theres no data underneath. When I try to import this file using my SSIS package it fails, and complains about needing to remove the metadata for this final column from the External Columns list (VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA). When I try to preview this file in the properties of the Excel Data Source, the last column does not exist. It's as if it's determining that as there is no data in that final column, that it's unnecessary and not part of the data set, even though it has a header.
Now I've done a bit of research, and found cases that a sort of like mine, I know that the excel file has the first 8 records sampled to determine the data format. This problem suggested to use the IMEX=1 extension in the connection string, which didn't help. I also discovered that when using flat files, if you have odd numbers of columns in your comma seperated list there can be problems. But neither of these issues seem to match the issue I'm facing.
Has ANYONE had a similar problem to me, and can anyone offer any kind of assistance regarding what I need to do to import an excel file that may or may not have data in the final column?
Thanks in advance,
Paul
