DOS Window Could Not Close Automatically When The DTS Package Execution Complete.
Jan 21, 2002
We ran a cmd file which includes dtsrun ... The last line of the DOS window came up with "DTSrun: Package execution complete", but the cmd window could not close automatically.
I need to write a front end to execute our .dtsx package due to it being encrypted and not wanting to expose the password at all. I have successfully written code to run it but I want to show something like the Package Execution Progess window and I don't know how. This window shows up when you just double click on the .dtsx file and Execute it using the interface provided. Can anyone help?
keyboard shortcuts for management studio http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174205.aspx
Anyone know of a way to setup a keyboard shortcut to close the current window your working in ? Normally with other editors (such as visual studio) I use ctl-w to close the current window. Cant do that with sql studio.
I insalled SQL 2000 server standard version on Windows 2000 server, then I applied SQL 2000 sp2 to it. Every step told me installation was successful.
Everything sounds working except following:
I lauch Enterprise manager, serverName / databaseName(ex. pubs) / Stored Procedure, then double click one of Stored Procedures, Stored Procedures properties window pop up. On the right top corner those three small buttons (minimize, resize and close) are missing. No way to close Stored Procedures properties window except using task manager to kill it. That drives me nut.
I'm a SQL Server 2000 user trying to get my head around v2005, in particular the changes from DTS to Integration Services.
I've build a few packages in BIDS and they work fine there, but saving them to either the file system or MSDB locations and running them in Management Studio results in:
Execute Package Utility has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
If I click on the debug button, I get this:
An unhandled exception ('System.IO.FileNotFoundException') occurred in DTExecUI.exe [404].
I've searched the Internet and found a few people who has also experienced this, but not received any answers.
Is there a kind guru out there with some idea of what is going on? Preferably something that doesn't involve re-installing, because the database has already been configured for our Blackberry users and I can't re-do it now.
I have to create a task, and in that task i have check exection time of package and if it more then specified time, send a mail with custom message to some specific users.
or
Can i write a event which occur after specific time and send a mail?
I have an SSIS package is made up of SQL tasks and dataflows. The dataflows connect to an Oracle database using Native OLE DBOracle Provider for OLE DB (10g). This is the first package dealing with oracle that runs on the server. I can execute the package manually by right clicking and going to 'Run Package' while logged in remotely from the server, but it gets hung up and does nothing if I run it as a job. I always have to quit the job. I can disable everything but the dataflows in the package and the job completes and runs fine.
I have searched extensively and not been able to find a solution to this problem.
The problem: We have one SSIS package will sometimes 'finish' executing (or crash from a .NET exception) when it certainly has not made its way through all of the data flow components. There are no SSIS error messages, no warnings, and it never happens at the same location in the package's pipeline. The only thing that is instantly visible is a command window that flashes on the screen and disappears too quickly to see anything,.
Sometimes the package does actually complete without any problem, but most of the time, it does not.
What we see: If the packages is being run through the "Execute Package Utility" (by double clicking the dtsx file), after a bit, a command window flashes on the screen and instantly disappears (no text is visible), then the €œExecute Package Utility€? disappears. The event viewer of the machine then shows:
If the package is running within visual studio, again the command window flashes on the screen, then the "Execution has completed" prompt appears, but any "running" component remains Yellow (no red), both within the data flow and control flow (we do not have any event handlers set up). Neither our SQL Log provider, nor the "Execution Results" tab in visual studio show any type of error message... all SSIS messages just stop right in the middle of the many OnPipelineRowsSent log events (so there is no PackageEnd log event when this happens). The event viewer on the machine contains no useful messages when running within visual studio.
And other packages: Are fine. This is only the case for this one package... we have nearly a dozen other packages, all very similar in design, that complete without issue.
We have also tried re-creating this troublesome package from scratch with no avail. <!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--> About the package: The Data Flow is pulling rows from 3 different external SQL data sources (400k-500k rows total), sorting and merging the rows, performing some basic lookups, then SCD'ing the results. This Data Flow is executed multiple times within 2 nested for loops (these nested loops give us particular dates, i.e. years 2000 through 2008, then months 1 through 12 for each year). There is not a single script task in the package. The problem seems to happen most as the data is being pulled from the sources and merged together, but it is not limited to this area.
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><!--[endif]--> The environment: We€™ve tried to use multiple machines with the same result. The current machine specs are as follows: SQL Server 9.0.3042 (SP2) Windows Server 2003 R2, Enterprise x64 Edition, SP2 3.00GHz x 16 processors, all 64 bit 63.5 GB of RAM Over 1 terabyte of hard disk space .NET 2.0.50727.42
The package was designed using: Visual Studio 2005 with SP1 Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Designer - Version 9.00.3042.00
I created a package which passes some infornmations( through parameters) to its child package.
I need to do some processing in parent package based on execution status of child package.i.e.
if child fails then some operation and if child succeeds then other operation.
To determine the status of execution of child package I am using two differnt constraint ..one constraint is having value "Success" and other having value "Failure".
My problem is that when child packge is executed successfully the constraint with value = "Success" works properly but when child fails the constraint with value "Failure" does not work.
I would like to be able to automatically restart a package if it fails with a certain error. This is due to a job that fails every now and then due to a loss in connectivity to the database (when run again no issues).
I know how to catch the message, but is there i way that i can in a script task or some other task restart the whole package when moving into the OnError event for the whole package.
I know this isn't a great way to do it, but its just temporary until we can isolate the network issue that is causing the loss in connectivity.
I have already created package which loads a text file to database.I wanted to execute that package based on the availability of the file using Visual Basic,Perl or VBSCRIPT whichever is easier.Please advise.Thanks
I wrote a stored procedure that calls a DTS package that imports a file into a SQL Server table, then executes some commands on that table. How can I tell that the DTS package has completed, so that I can continue with the next command? Here is my code:
-- Run the DTS package EXEC @Result = msdb..sp_start_job @job_name = 'MyJob' WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:02'
-- Call the table that the package created SELECT * FROM <imported_table> WHERE ...
I had to insert a WAITFOR statement to make this work. Any other suggestions as to how to know when to continue?
Is there a method to either: A) Kick of a DTS package directly from a stored procedure without shelling out to the DTSRun facility. B) Kick off a scheduled job containing a DTS task from a stored procedure?
I need help from you. I am working on SSIS packages for ETL purpose. The version of SQL Server i am using is SQL Server 2005.
In Brief , the working of current ETL is as follows.
In ODS database i have 2 tables i.e Table_A & Table_B which gets loaded from another 2 staging tables A & B. And using this 2 tables data will be loaded into a target table i.e Trg_A.
The ETL packages are executed by stored procedures by creating a job within the stored procedure.
The loading of the trg table is little tricky. Before that loading of Table_A is implemented in a single SSIS package. and loading of Table_B is been implemented in another SSIS package.
In the trg table there are two columns which will be getting updated as and when each table is loaded. so for the first time if i run the package which is resposible for loading Table_A, it loads values into Table_A and once done it will updates (col1) in the target table.
Once after the complete of the execution of Package1. Now i will kick off the second ssis package which loads the data into Table_B and updates the trg table's columns (col2).
Now the actual problem what i am facing is:
For loading Table_A and updating the col1 in Trg table i will be receving more than 5 excel file every month on weekly basis. I cannot even gather all the files and run using a For-Loop counter. So presently i am loading data excel file per week .
Similarly loading of table_B.
For a week if i am executing both the packages which loads the Table_A and updates the Trg(col1) and Table_B and updates Trg(col2), then i am getting a Deadlock Error and the entire ETL is getting messed up.
Now my requirement is , Eventhough the 2 packages are run in parallel , there could certain milli seconds time difference while start of the execution in Job Monitor. I need to implement a Queing Mechanism which takes care of running the packages in a sequential manner rather than in parallel. i .e i need to ensure only one SSIS package is running in Job Monitor. Only after successful execution of either one the package, then only the second package should start its execution.
If we can implement such a queing mechanism , then my problem is solvedl.
I need some suggestions on this regard in implementing the Queing mechanism in a programatic approach using SQL Server Job Related MetaData Tables. or else is there in server parameter or initialization parameters which can be set at Database level which suffice my requirement.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Looking for sincere comments on this regards.
I have a package that has 12 data pump tasks all executing in parallel.
It is transferring raw data from an AS400 DW to a MSSQLSvr Staging area.
Each pump task on completion assigns values to a set of global variables, then having done this passes these as parameters to a sproc which inserts them into a table.
This seems to work for 4 or 5 of the pump tasks but, the rest of the rows in the table are all the same because the remaining pump tasks are all executing before the sprocs.
Is there a way to make sure that the entire set of job steps completes, before starting another job set of steps while still keeping them running in parallel.
I had wondered if there was a way to use the PumpComplete phase of each pump step to fire off the sproc, but can't see how you execute the step.
I want to finsih the execution of a DTS package from an ActiveX task. If a condition is ok, the package would continue as normal. If not, I want to finish the package without any error. Just without executing the next tasks. Do you have any idea?
I need a user to pass an input to a package from a VB form, and then want to show progress/errors in the form.
I have been able to use Application. LoadFromSqlServer and I then set pkg.Variables.(MyVariable) to the required value before calling Execute.
Works fine so far.
I dont know how to show progress. The DTSExecResult just returns a Cryptic Success /Failure status message.
Is there a way to log the errors if any to my Windows form? I have seen samples on Console Apps(see below) but I would prefer to show it in my Windows form in a text Box or something, appending each error result to the text.
TIA

I have basic knowledge of SSIS and will appreciate if some can suggest a way (with example if possible), to solve this problem.
I have an SSIS package that requires execution of another package, lets say B. This I am able to do using the 'Execute package' task. Now, what I really want to do is, I wish to check if a perticular table 'A' has rows that satisfy a given condition. In other words, I wish to execute Package 'B' onle if Table 'A' has rows. How can I do this?
I tried to execute the package,which is importing the data from the Flat file(flat file from map network drive on other computer).But Packages are created and executed on Server.While i executing that package it shows error as "Package could not be found.".
hello to every body.. well i have a problem.. well i created a package the task of which is to update thedimensions and the fact tables from the tables of source.
i created a configuration file with all the parameters that are nedded (connections managers; parameters of packages).this config file will include all the paremeters need for the execution of other packages
In that package i call an other package (execution package task). this package normally will take the parameters of the parent package isn't it??(i put the parameters of this package to the config file of the parent package).
i must also note that for the second package called there is also a package...
i must also note that i have 2 DWHs (a and b) for testing.
the problem is that when i execute the parent package to DWH b , the sacond package called do not take the parameters of the parent package. instaed it looks to its XML configuration file(in a different location of the config file of the parent package) which contains the connection parameters to DWH a and it calls strored procedures from the DWH a (instead of calling at SP from DHW b).
I have a problem in getting the info about the execution of a DTS Package.
I have a SQL-2000 Client installation on my Desktop to connect to SQL-2000 Server Database system to do all of my work. i had a DTS package stored in my SQL Server2000 Local Packages. Now i have to schedule the DTS Package from my Desktop. And the DTS package is processing some files from a shared network folder. when i used to run the DTS package manually from my desktop my desktop login have access to that shared folder so there is no problem to run the package.
suppose i scheduled the DTS to execute on daily basis at 10:00 AM. Now my doubt is wher the DTS will be executed after scheduling, which starts DTS execution and is it required my Desktop to be up daily at 10:00 AM, and how the network shared folder is going to be accessed by the DTS, means where to specify the authentication to the shared folder.
Which is the best way to execute SSIS packages? I have no problem to use dtexec command but I want it to run every night. Is this going to be done through the SQL Server (SQL Server Agent under Jobs)? Is the type going to be Operating System (CmdExec) or Transact Sql? How exactly is the command written there?
I am running into some issue that i have found any good clue on this forum... although have seen a few threads dicussions. I have a master package which invokes a dozen of child packages.
1) If I only open master package inside IDE, I am keeping getting the following error when i run the master packages inside Visual Studio 2005 IDE.
The connection type "FLATFILE" specified for connection manager "XXXXX Flat File Destination Connection Manager" is not recognized as a valid connection manager type. This error is returned when an attempt is made to create a connection manager for an unknown connection type. Check the spelling in the connection type name
2) If I opened up all child packages inside IDE, the master package run fine most of time.
I just deployed my first interface and below is the error message
failure". An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E4D Description: "TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. ". An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E4D Description: "Login failed for user 'EUROPExxx123$'.". End Error Error: 2008-05-09 11:01:13.00 Code: 0xC020801C Source: Load New Data Into TransDat... The package execution fa... The step failed.
The interface is just to copy the data from 1 database to another based on a date. I suspect that i could have missed a step during the deployment, can someone tell me if the error is caused me forgetting to configure something during the step up of the job or is it network related
I have 10 or so packages with package scope variables. I would like to create a package that not only runs all the packages but also sets the variables within the packages being executed.
A) Whats the best way to run all the packages from one (package??)?
B) Whats the best way to set the variables in the child packages, without having to change them manually everytime I run it.
Hi all, I am Hazara. I am trying to call a SSIS package from a web service. But package.execute() method is returning 'failure'. Though I am able to execute the same package from a normal .Net project and it is working fine (using the same code that i have used in web service).
I have also tried to execute it through stored procedure for which firstly I created a .dll in c#(which is perfectly working) and then I registered this .dll in sqlserver-2005 using following command.
CREATE ASSEMBLY asmPackageExecuter FROM 'C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727PackageExecuter.dll' WITH PERMISSION_SET = UNSAFE GO Now on calling the method of .dll (which is responsible to execute the package) I am getting the DTSExecResult as 'success' but data is not getting transfered from one able to other as was expected from the package.
Please help me. I have searched it everywhere on net but didn't get any solution. I want to execute package only through web-service or stored-procedure
I have a package which updates a table which contains a large amount of rows, when this package is runnning the process consumes 100% CPU and other services are crashing (SSAS, SPS, SSRS).
Is there any parameter which could be set to avoid SSIS to consume 100% of the CPU during the execution of this package ?
