DTA Package Handling Multiple File Formats
Jul 23, 2005
Hi,
Currently we get data from more then 200 different sources and all of
our vendors provide data in different file formats. The problem is we
have more then 100 DTS packages now and the maintainance is very
diffucult.
Every time our vendor changes the format we have to change in multiple
DTS packages.
Is anybody know what would be the right way of reducing the no. of DTS
packages.
The type of file formats we get are .xls .txt .dat .csv etc. and .txt
& .dat files comes with different delimitters. The # of columns also
varies from file to file. Is it possible to have a DTS package which
can handle diff file formats and loads data into a staging table and
from there based of the source of the file we can move data into
respective tables & columns.
We are using SQL SERVER 2000
Thanks in advance.

Would it be possible to handle multiple file systems (e.g. xlsx, csv, mdb) with different /similar headers in single package without Script Component?

Hello friends,
Is there a way to include multiple render formats within a single subscription? For instance, web format to be included in body of email and exel format as an attachment.
I attempted this with data-driven subscription, but was only able to acheive multiple render formats across multiple communications within a single subscription - not at all what I want.
I would prefer not to have to send out 2 separate communications in order to provide both web format AND excel format reports to my audience.
Thank you!!!

Dear SQL folks,
We have files from an event log in a DEC Alpha server and we would like to create a database program to import these files and then be able to read and query the info in them.
These files contain information such as error codes about the machine that the Alpha controls. They also contain time stamps. I am told that these files are hexidecimal.
Someone mentioned in passing that if we use MSaccess as the database, we would first have to write a program to convert these files to a format that Access can understand.
But, we were told that SQL7 has Add-ins that comes on the CD that can convert these files to a format that SQL7 can then understand.
Does anyone know if this is true..and how difficult is file conversion to accomplish?
If anyone thinks that they might be able to help us, I can sent them a small sample of the hex files
Thank you in advance

I need to import multiple flat files with different formats into different tables of the sql server database and not able to figure out the best way out in ssis to do so...
What are the possible methods in ssis to do so and if possible the process which can be dynamic as file names or columns might change in future.

Hi All,
I am working on a project currently where we have many SSIS packages and we want to minimize the number of config files to be used. What I was thinking was using one master config file which will have Server/Database info which will be used by all the packages. Now the thing is there are multiple packages which are being executed from within a master package and I was wondering if this will be an issue. Is there anything else that I will have to keep in mind? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Hi everyone,
There is a small problem encountered while creating a package in sql
server 2005.
Actually i am using a flat file which has 820 rows and 2 columns which
are seperated by line feed(for ROW) and tab(for COLUMN).after
importing i found that ther are only 800 rows imported into the table.
Ather verifying the input file i found out that there are some null
values in the second column so there is no line feed for those
values.
Can anyone please help me how to give multiple delimiters for the same
input flat file.

I am bring a date from a OLE DB Source (SQL Command) as [select cast(convert(varchar,getdate(),101) as varchar(10))] to a Flat File Destination (CSV File). The data in the source is show as "1/1/2007", which is how I need it to display in the file. The flat file defaults to showing the data as "1/1/2007 00:00:00." I did change the destination field to a String, and still, I geting the timestamp. I tried using a data conversion transformation, and I am getting bargage data when converting the date to a string.
Can any one give me insight on how to populate a date into a comma delimeted file as "1/1/2007", not "1/1/2007 00:00:00."
Thanks in advanced.

Hello Guys,
I am working in one company and currently I am assigned to new project for Data Migration from company X to our company Y using SSIS. I am totally new and i just completed 5 tutorial which was gien on MSDN website.
Basically client is going to send us first flat file with 1 million records with Header, Detail and Trailer records.
I want to create a Package in such a way that it dumps all this first load into 7 to 8 different tables at a time.
we also have to include functionlity for validation and error check.
On successfull load error file should only return Header and Trailer but no detail records.
If there are any errors then error file should contain Header, Detail records which were unable to load plus trailer which we have to sent back to client.
When 2nd file comes that time we have to check whether this is new records or change (update) one depending on Flag which tells it.
This is basically high level idea of my Package what i need to create. If u guys have any question then let me know.
I know you guys are very experienced one. Anyone of you please give me some detail idea on it I would really appricate it.
I have very limited time line for it.
Thanks

I have a package with 10 synchronous dataflows, which, combined, load about 300MB of flat file data to a database. This package would run successfully on 2 of our database servers, but would regularly fail on a third. The server on which it was failing is a 4 processor box with 16GB Ram with Windows Server 2003, SQL 2005, SSIS and SSRS installed - much more robust than one of the others that the package worked on. The SSIS error messages returned alternated between the following (with no apparent reason why one would show up rather than another, though the first was the most common):
"The file name "\Server1Folder1File1.txt" specified in the connection was not valid."
"The file name property is not valid. The file name is a device or contains invalid characters."
"An error occurred while initializing the flat file parser."
For the first error message, the error would report different connection managers and their associated file as invalid from run to run. All of the files across the 10 dataflows resided in the same network folder, and the package would read in and process a few of them before failing, so the problem was definitely not the connection string.
Searching the forums, etc. for these errors provided no useful information - given the real cause of the problem, these error messages are worse than unhelpful, they send you looking in the wrong direction. It was only when trying to track down another problem on the same server that I discovered the issue. When trying to copy database backups greater than 12GB over the network to this server, the operation would fail with an "Insufficient System Resources" message.
Some research led to the discovery that problem was caused by the /3GB switch in the boot.ini file of the server (don't let your Server team use that switch if you have 16GB of memory or more). Removing the switch and setting SQL to utilize AWE, fixed both the file copy problem AND the SSIS package failure problem. The SSIS package failed, not due to a bad connection string, but rather to insufficient server resources (read memory) to handle the simultaneous connections.
I hope this may help any others trying to track down this kind of SSIS package failure.
I will also provide here what I have gleaned about setting up Memory usage for SQL Server 2005 running on 32 bit Windows Server 2003 (with the caveat that I am no expert €“ corrections and additional information are welcome).
The following links got me started in my research (thanks to the folks who provided such useful information):

http://www.modhul.com/2007/11/10/optimising-system-memory-for-sql-server-part-i/
Also, search BOL for:
Server Memory Options
Enabling Memory Support for Over 4 GB of Physical Memory
Enabling AWE Memory for SQL Server
Windows Server 2003 provides access to 4GB of virtual address space. By default, 2GB is assigned to the OS and 2GB to applications. This default can be change to 1GB for the OS and 3GB for applications by the use of the /3GB switch in the boot.ini file.
Physical memory over 4GB can be addressed by enabling Physical Addressing Extensions (PAE), which is done by setting the /PAE switch in the boot.ini file. This does not increase the systems virtual address space, rather it increases the size of the page table (which is maintained within the virtual address space), adding entries to reference the physical memory above 4GB.
It is important to note that these two switches are not interdependent (they do different things and you can turn each on or off regardless of the others status), though the combination of them has an impact on server performance and the maximum amount of physical memory which can be addressed.
The /3GB switch only impacts the allocation of the first 4GB of memory (virtual address space) between the OS and applications (default 50/50 % split, with switch on - 25% OS and 75% applications). The /PAE switch enables the system to reference/manage physical memory above 4GB, but does not alter the allocation percentages of the first 4GB of memory between the OS and applications. However, when PAE is enabled, the OS requires more memory within the first 4GB to manage the physical memory above 4GB (due to increased page table entries). With the /3GB switch, the OS has only 1GB of virtual address space, and only enough space to manage a total of 16GB of physical memory. If 32GB of physical memory is installed, 16GB of it will go to waste.
Address Windowing Extensions (AWE) is an API that allows an application to address more than the 2-3GB of memory that is available to applications within the virtual address space (first 4GB of memory). SQL Server can utilize AWE to take advantage of memory above the first 4GB that is made available via PAE, and can even reserve portions for its own use. I believe (though I can€™t remember where I got this bit) that SQL utilizes AWE memory only for the page cache (buffer pool €“ which seems to be a misnomer), and not for other operations.
To enable AWE, see the BOL references above.
The big question: what are the recommended settings for all of these? That all depends on what you have running on the server. You need to leave space for the OS, SQL Server and any other applications you have.
The hard and fast rules:
If you have more than 4GB of RAM, you must use the /PAE switch in order to take advantage of it.
If you have more than 16GB of RAM, you must NOT use the /3GB switch in order to take advantage of it.
Based on anecdotal evidence, I€™ve noticed the following generally recommended guidelines €“ assuming the server is dedicated to SQL.
Use of the /3GB switch seems to be a generally accepted practice if you have 8GB of RAM or less. For between 8 and 16GB, some say never use the /3GB switch, others say you can use it up to 12GB and still others up to 16GB. I interpret this to mean that it all depends on what types of loads are being placed on the server and that testing on individual servers will be required to determine whether or not to use the switch. Certainly that was my experience - the /3GB switch worked fine with 16GB RAM, until the server encountered a certain workload. For me, no more /3GB switch.
For setting SQL to use AWE, most seem to agree that it should be enabled if you have more than 4GB RAM. The setting of max server memory is more complicated. BOL seems to suggest (the €˜Server Memory Options€™ entry) a formula of Total Physical Memory minus 1-2GB for the operating system. Based on a desire to be a bit more conservative, I am now using the following formula:
max server memory = total physical memory
minus
4GB for the OS and application processes (since the AWE memory is utilized for page cache, not SQL processes)
minus
AWE memory required by other applications, including other instance of SQL Server
If anyone has additional insight, or a more refined equation, I could certainly benefit from it.

I am working on SQL Server in VB 2008. I have a table 'Records' having 8 columns. I have a search page where I can choose 5 different parameters to search as 'Category' , 'Name' , 'Date' etc.
I can successfully search with a single criteria selected either Category Name Or Date. But I want to create a single SQL command that can search my 'Records' table for either two or all the parameters depending on the selections made by the user.

I have a need to read a table and extract records that matches a criteria (dough!, not that simple). Then I put the record in a text message and send them out via email. Works OK, but the problem is when I have multiple records for one entry. Since SQL doesn't have arrays "per say", I need to load the records on a "temporary array" then assembly the message at the end to include the records. Any suggestions how to "emulate" an array on a stored procedure (SQL), not sure what direction to follow. thanks

In almost all scenarios, where there is an error, it also raises 3-4 other errors like these ones below.
I'm 100% sure, the 1st one is the actual error resulting in package failure and the errors 2-5 is the result of error #1. So what ever code I have in the error handler section of the package gets executed 5 times.
How do I handle this? Can do I hard coding for the error numbers?
1. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E07.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" Hresult: 0x80040E07 Description: "ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected ".
2. The PrimeOutput method on component "OLE DB Source" (1) returned error code 0xC0202009. The component returned a failure code when the pipeline engine called PrimeOutput(). The meaning of the failure code is defined by the component, but the error is fatal and the pipeline stopped executing.
3. Thread "SourceThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0047038.
4. Thread "WorkThread0" received a shutdown signal and is terminating. The user requested a shutdown, or an error in another thread is causing the pipeline to shutdown.
5. Thread "WorkThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0047039.
Thanks

Hello,
I am reading Microsoft REAL project ETL part. I find that it uses neither transaction nor checkpoints throughtout the packages. I am wondering if something goes wrong with the process and the process aborts in the middle,how are we going to handle this. Any particular reson not using transaction? Is it best practice without using transaction for performance consideration and log volumn? I am new to SSIS. I would like to follow the best practice. Thanks for advice..

I have a main package that calls several other packages using Execute Package Tasks. I also have OnPreExecute, OnPostExecute, and OnError event handlers at the package level to audit the beginning and completion of each package. I want to prevent each task from bubbling up to the package event handlers as well as prevent each task from bubbling up to the main package event handlers. I've tried setting the Propagate variable for each of the event handlers to False and setting the DisableEventHandlers property of each task to True but neither solution seems to work. Is there a way to do this that I'm missing?

Hi all,
I’m returning two values from a stored procedure, one is a basic string confirming that an email has been sent and the other is the normal value returned from running an INSERT statement. So in my code I’m using the ExecuteNonQuery() method. I’m not sure how to handle both returned values in my code in my data layer. This is what I have:
ExecuteNonQuery(cmd);
return Convert.ToString(cmd.Parameters["@ReturnedValue"].Value).ToLower();
Obviously I’d need to return the value returned by the ExecuteNonQuery method as well, normally I’d simply convert the value to an int and precede this with the return keyword like so:
return (int)ExecuteNonQuery(cmd);
Obviously I can’t do this as I need to return two values, the normal value returned by the ExecuteNonQuery() method and my own output parameter value. Any ideas how I can do both? My current method containing the code further above returns a string but clearly this doesn’t help. I’m guessing that maybe I should return an object array so I can return both values? I haven’t encountered this problem before so I’m just guessing. Please help.
Thanks

Hi,
i have a package that uses a ForEach loop component to import flat files, and uses an OLE DB Destination component to insert the data into some staging tables (using table fast load with a max insert commit of 1000 rows), the biggest individual table import would be circa 5000 rows. At the end of each file import a stored proc is called to transfer the data into production tables, then the next file is imported.
Periodically (when importing more than 5 or 6 files) the process fails with the error message:
The transaction log for database 'blah' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases
This occurs when committing the data to staging. I do not start any transactions during this process, and the staging tables are cleaned out by truncating them, so i'm not sure exactly what is causing the log file to fill up (i'm not a DBA).
I know this is not specifically a SSIS problem, but can anyone give me a suggestion about the best way to handle the log file during an SSIS import? Should i execute a DBCC SHRINKFILE before each flat file is imported? Is there some other approach i should be taking to either insert the data or to move it from staging to production?
Thanks!

Hi All,
Well, tha case here is simply that i have a (Suppliers.csv) as an Input.
When taking that file, I do some validation on it's rows (Data type validations, Mandatory Fielda validations..etc).
When some rows to do not meet the requirments i put in these validations , it is supposed to be directed to an (Errors) Table in my SQL DB.
I want to include the order of the invalid row in the input File (The row which did not pass from the pre-mentioned validations) within the (Errors) Table when i direct the invalid rows to it.
Any ideas ?

Now i need to create files with the obtained resultset like
Column 'fname' is the folder name and 'typename' should be the file in the particular folder.
For example the first record should be inserted into file name 'bars.txt' in the folder 'cad' and third record should be created in file name 'bars.txt' in the folder 'nes'.

Hi,
I've just started looking at SSIS and have encountered what should hopefully be a simple problem to solve. I have a pipe-separated source file that looks like this (I've added Line numbers for simplicity):
Ln 01: HDR|FEED_CODE|31-MAR-2006
Ln 02: Tom|100|Jones|ZZ1 1ZZ|USA
Ln 03: Tom|200|Singer|
Ln 04: Tom|305||Red|Porche ||Lanzarote |Apple|Carrot| | |
Ln 05: Dick|100|Van Dyke|ZZ1 1ZZ|USA
Ln 06: Dick|200|Actor|
Ln 07: Dick|305||Blue|Ford||California |Tomato | |||Beef
Ln 08: Harry|100|Houdini|ZZ1 1ZZ|GBR
Ln 09: Harry|200|Escapologist|
Ln 10: Harryk|305| |Green ||Triumph |Poland|Banana|Sprout| | |
Ln 11: TRL|9
In addition to a header and footer records, this file contains three record types for each person.
Record types are identified by the second column.
Each record type has a different number of columns:
Type 100 has 5 columns
Type 200 has 4 columns
Type 305 has 12 columns
The Row delimiter for all records is the {CR}{LF} character
I've set up a flat file input source and specified {CR}{LF} as the row delimiter for both header and data rows and the "|" character as the field delimiter.
It appears that SSIS is assuming that because the first data row has 5 columns, then everything must fit that format too. So the {CR}{LF} character that separates lines 02 and 03 is interpreted as text rather than a separation character and all remaining | field separators after 305 are interpreted as text containing in the fifth column. SSIS is also complaining that the last row is incomplete.
A bit like this (I've used tildes to indicate column separation):
Tom~100~Jones~ZZ1 1ZZ~USA
Tom~200~Singer~{CR}{LF}Tom~305||Red|Porche ||Lanzarote |Apple|Carrot| | |
I've seen one other reference to this behaviour but the response seemed to be SSIS doesn't know which columns are missing. In this scenario, we don't have missing columns, rather, we have different types of record in a single file. in DTS I would effectively parse the file once for each record type thus:
if cStr(DTSSource("Col002")) = "100" then
DTSDestination("in_Name") = trim(DTSSource("Col001"))
...
Main = DTSTransformStat_OK
else
Main = DTSTransformStat_SkipInsert
end if
...not the most efficient solution I know but the load only runs once a month so this was an acceptable workaround.
DTS was never this fussy but I'm sure this is user error rather than an SSIS limitiion. Can someone please put me straight?
Many thanks,
Greg

Hi,
I am planning to develop a single package that will download files from ftp server, move the files to internal file server and upload it in the database. But I want to run this package for multiple ftp file providers. For each provider the ftp server might be different and the transformation to upload the files into a database table might be different.
So can I create a single package and then multiple configuration files (xml), which will contain the details fo the ftp file providers and then pass the xml file as a parameter while executing the package. The reason being that the timings of fetching the files is different for each ftp file provider and hence cannot be combined into one.
Is this possible?
Thanks for your help.

Hi guys,
Here's the deal. I have a child package, (say, pack01.dtsx), which uses a dtsconfig file for its connection string, which can be called from other packages, but which also can be called by itself.
However I also have another package (say, pack02.dtsx) which uses the same dtsconfig file for its connection string. It calls on pack01.dtsx.
When I use DTEXECUI and run pack01.dtsx, specifying the proper .dtsconfig file, it goes well. But when I try and run pack02.dtsx, an error occurs saying pack01.dtsx connection cannot be established.
How do I pass the connectionstring being used by pack02 to pack01, without having to remove the configuration file setting of pack01? Can a Parent Package configuration and a configuration file try and map to the same property?
Hope someone could help. Thanks.

I need to move specific files from a server to another server on a monthly basis. Â There are hundreds of files that are in the source directory and I need to move approximately 40 of those to the destination server. Â I would like to easily add or delete the file list as needed. Â I have seen where several variables were created for for each file name (and one for the path) and the ForEach Loop would go through them. Â With 40 or more I was thinking that I could make a connection to an Excel spreadsheet or text file with a record for each file name and read in and and move to the next record and make that value become the content of a "FileName" variable. Â Then if I wanted to add another file name I could just add another record to spreadsheet/text file or remove and the package would handle automatically....
