DTSX Package Continues To Throw Errors When Working With Large Dataset.
Jun 7, 2006
I have a dataset that is between 40-50K records that has to go through a process that is pre-defined. SSIS works just fine with the smaller sets even up to 20K but this job keeps blowing up saying something along the lines of cannot write to recordset destination. Does this make sense to anyone? The sever is a 2 processor with 2GB of ram. Physical memory usage spikes to about 1.6GB during the run but the processor never really gets above 30% usage. Does this product just not scale yet?
I'm currently experiencing major problems with SSIS when opening and editing large .DTSX package files that contain Exec DTS 2000 Tasks which have the package data loaded internally. I have no issues if I point the task to a .DTS file, or to an actual DTS package on a SQL 2000 server - but if I load the package internally then once the underlying .DTSX file gets over around 17MB or so in size (which doesnt take long making a few edits to even fairly simple packages now and then), I start to experience major issues with VS/BIDS 2005 crashing randomly when I try to perform any action with the package (open, save etc). Things like OutOfMemory exception errors, followed by the properties of Exec DTS 2000 task being deleted, and also sometimes accompanied by messages about the application not being installed properly.
Again its ONLY when the underlying .DTSX file reaches a certain size limit, and only when I've got an Exec DTS 2000 task with the package loaded internally. I've replicated the issue using several different package files on several different machines (even on servers with lots of memory, fwiw).
Can anyone out there help me with this? SSIS - namely SSIS Exec DTS 2000 package tasks - are our lifeblood at my company and this trend of random and serious crashing on large package files is very disturbing to say the least.
I have a dtsx package that is calling another dtsx package, however, if the called upon dtsx package fails with errors or what not, then the calling package does not continue as well. Is there any way to override this such that if the called upon package fails, the downstream actions in that package can stop, but the calling packages downstream actions to continue?
I have a small number of rows in a dataset, Table 1. There is a CLOB on a large dataset, Table 2. They join on a PK. I would like to retrieve this CLOB and add it to the data flow for Table1. In short I want to emulate the following:
Table 1: Small table without CLOB, 10 rows. Table 2: Large table with CLOB, 10,000,000 rows
select CLOB from table2 where pk = (select pk from table1)
I want this to return the CLOBs for the small number of rows in Table 1. The PK is indexed obviously so it should be a fast look up.
Table 1 and Table 2 live on different Oracle databases. How do I perform this operation efficiently in SSIS? It seems the Lookup and Merge Join wont do this.
I am using Data flow object in that I take OleDb as Source and Sql Server As destination. Without enabling Package configuration everything is working fine data is moving from Source to destination.
But When i apply Package Confiiguration It throw Error And My OleDb Source object Convert in to RED Color. I cant able to track This errror
I'm experiencing some frustration with my active/passive SQL cluster not running my .DTSX packages. I am hoping someone can shed some light on what I need to do.
I've created some .DTSX packages with the SQL Server Business Intel Dev Studio. I initially built & tested these packages in a non-SQL cluster environment without any problems. I'm now re-creating them to work on our SQL cluster. If I run the package through the Dev Studio it works great.
The packages basically grab .txt files from one of the shared drives (which is a resource of the sql cluster group) and imports the data into the one of the databases. The database does not have any special settings (right-click -> new database... -> enter name -> click ok).
I've setup a SQL Server Agent Job with 1 step with the following properties. Step name: I Offices Type: SQL Server Integration Services Package Run as: SQL Agent Service Account Package source: File system Package: G:ImportRAGFLOffices.dtsx
When I run the SQL Server Agent Job through MSSQL Server Management Studio (right-click -> start job) I get an error on "Execute job 'RAGFL TestJob'".
These are the 2 messages that show up when I view the history of the SQL Server Agent job.

I have a SSIS-package with Excel Connection Manager that fails on our x64-platform with error: Error: 2006-12-08 06:46:23.77 Code: 0xC0202009 Source: dpd2_philips Connection manager "Excel Connection Manager" Description: An OLE DB error has occurred.

End Error
It's works fine on my computer (x86) and if I start the package manually on the x64-server. But I noticed that it runs under 32bit (DTExecUI.exe *32 in taskmanager) when it's started manually.
Any idea? The server use dtexec.exe to start the packages. Maybe it runs under 64bit then?
I understand that I can use dtutil to provide a password to encrypt the package. However, when I run the encrypted package, I need to provide the same password in order to run it. Is there a way that I can encrypt the package but allow anybody to run it without providing the password? That is, I want the package to be encrypted so that nobody can load and modify the code in Visual Studio, but I want people to be able to execute it. Is there a way to do this? Similar to generating a exe file?
SSIS package created from the wizard couldn't be run from the visual studio editor? The run button is disabled. Is it not possible to run from inside editor as well?
I have a parent package that calls child packages inside a For Each container. When I debug/run the parent package (from VS), I get the following error message: Warning: The Execution method succeeded, but the number of errors raised (3) reached the maximum allowed (1); resulting in failure. This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.
It appears to be failing while executing the child package. However, the logs (via the "progress" tab) for both the parent package and the child package show no errors other than the one listed above (and that shows in the parent package log). The child package appears to validate completely without error (all components are green and no error messages in the log). I turned on SSIS logging to a text file and see nothing in there either.
If I bump up the MaximumErrorCount in the parent package and in the Execute Package Task that calls the child package to 4 (to go one above the error count indicated in the message above), the whole thing executes sucessfully. I don't want to leave the Max Error Count set like this. Is there something I am missing? For example are there errors that do not get logged by default? I get some warnings, do a certain number of warnings equal an error?
when i start SQL Server business intelligence developer and create new Integration Service project, i will see following error:
Error loading 'Package.dtsx' : Object reference not set to an instance of an object.. C:SairiMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsIntegration Services Project12Integration Services Project12Package.dtsx
this error occures just on my PC and i reinstalled VS2005 and SQL2005 again and unfotunately the problem existes.
please someone helps me (just don't tell me to format my PC!!!)
I used to write DTS Scripts in SQL Server 2000 and schedule them as jobs with out problem.
This was normally done within SQL Server its self.
Now that I've moved to using SQL Server 2005 I've been learning how to use SSIS.
I've successfully developed a package and managed to create a .dtsx file. Now I have 2 large books on the subject of SSIS but none seem to go into any detail on what to do next.
So here€™s my newbie question (I apologise if I sound dumb!):
I don't want to run my package manually as the books keep telling me how to do.
I need to have my package added into SQL Server 2005 somehow and then schedule it as a reoccurring job.
I am having trouble with a dtsx package to truncate a table, then insert the contents of a .csv file. The package is being executed off the local filesystem, reading a csv on the same file system, and inserting into a remote SQL 2k5 server. If I run the package alone in BI it will run perfectly, if I implement the package into a console app in visual studio, it will trunc the table, but will not insert any of the data in the csv file. When running from DtExec I recieve the following error on the CSV portion after the table is truncated:
Code: 0xC00470FE Soure: Data Flow Task DTS.Pipeline Description: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PRODUCTLEVELTOLOW. The product level is insufficient for for componenet "Soure - My_File_CSV" (1).
I have tried all the work arounds I can find without any luck. All help will be appreciated.
I had encountered an error on SSIS its not allowing me to create any new packages. Below is the error message. Please do help be out. This problem had occurred on my server machine
Error 1 Error loading Package.dtsx: Error loading value "<DTSroperty xmlnsTS="www.microsoft.com/SqlServer/Dts" DTS:Name="CreationDate" DTSataType="7">08.04.2008 4:39:55 PM</DTSroperty>" from node "DTSroperty".

Is there a way to strip out the annotations from a dtsx package. I'm looking at quite a few and would like to automaticly pull those out and store them somewhere in either a table or a text file.
Is this possible or am I going to have to hand copy them out?
I'm trying to create a simple .dtsx package that imports data to SQL server 2005 from an informix 7.3 db using an ADO.net ODBC connection. I am first creating the groundwork for the dtsx package in SQL server using the wizard, and then editing the file later in visual studio.
My data source SQL in the dataflow task is simple and it works great until I hit a locked record on the Informix database.
select <coulmns>
from <table>
Where <condition>
The work around syntax for the locked row on the informix DB should be:
set isolation to dirty read
go
select <coulmns>
from <table>
where <condition>
This syntax will return the data correctly using a non-microsoft SQL editor, however it will will not parse corectly within visual studio. Interestingly enough, in visual studio I can parse the islolation and the select indenpendantly, just not in the same statement.
Has anyone come across this before? Any ideas on what I can do to resolve my problem?
When I try to run a DTSX package from SQL server agent, I get this error message:

All my other packages run fine. This one contains an FTP task and will not run, although it will run if I execute it through the visual studio.
I have now created a few simple SSIS packages. In BIDS I right-clicked on a solution and selected "Build". I went to the "bin" directory hoping to find a standalone ".exe.dll" file but found only a ".dtsx' file.
Can BIDS can actually build a standalone exedll or is the .dtsx file all that's available? (If so, I guess that another program is expected to invoke the .dtsx file.)
I am trying to build a package that is comprised of 100+ dtsx packages but cannot seem to get it to work. I have created a new connection where the connectionmanagertype = file and the file path is equal to the folder in which my dtsx files are located. I (location = fileSystem). No matter what I do I get an access denied error that shows the folder location but no package. I manually typed the name of the package in the PackageName property and have pasted in the PackageID in the appropriate property as well but I don't see anything in the PackageNameReadOnly. I have read the MSDN information but I don't see a step by step way to build a package of packages against which I can compare. Can anyone set me straight?
I have a SSIS package that I want users to be able to execute by clicking a button on an a web page. The package does not require any parameters to be passed to it. Previously I've executed DTS packages without any problems but after a fair bit of investigation and trawling the net I've not found a way to do this successfully with SSIS. Some code I've tried - Dim app As New Application() ' ' Load package from file system ' Dim package As Package = app.LoadPackage("c:ssisPackage.dtsx", Nothing)
'package.ImportConfigurationFile("c:ExamplePackage.dtsConfig") 'Dim vars As Variables = package.Variables 'vars("MyVariable").Value = "value from c#"
Dim result As DTSExecResult = package.Execute()
lblResult.Text = "Package Execution results: {0} " & result.ToString() All I get is a message 'Failure'. Does anyone have an example of how to do this?
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "'I:MyFolderMyRptsMyApplicationMyDatabase.mdb' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.".
The above path "I:...." is mapped on the server that SQL Server is running on.
This package runs with NO problems in MS Visual Studio.
I have a job that runs a dtsx package (containing an infinite loop). What I want to do is set up a schedule to start the job at 8am and stop it at 5pm. The scheduling GUI doesn't give this kind of option (caveat: that I can see).
When the data is transferred from source to destination (replace not append), the data in one field in one table is incorrect. Both source and destination tables have the same number of rows (8493). The ProductID field data range at the source is from 58958 to 73008. When the table is copied the ProductID field data runs from 1 to 8493.
What would cause this skewing of data?
This happens on brand new dtsx packages and this only happens in one field out of 5 different tables.
So I've seen articles outlining how to execute a package in VB and how to pass variables along to the package, which is great.
But I'm wanting write a VB.NET app that will read the xml in a .dtsx package, looking for the available variables (and datatypes) that need to be passed to the package to configure it properly. Anyone done this? Is it best to use parent package variables? Or another type of configuration?
When looking at the xml of a .dtsx file, I can see a variables section that could be parsed... is there anything letting me know what is required versus optional? How do I know the datatype that I need to pass? Any help would be appreciated...
Does the validation time of DTSX package depend on the amount of data?
I have a data transfer task which contains a oledb source data from a SQL Server 2005 view. Then the data go through 3 Lookup transfromations before going into another view, also on SQL Server 2005 but a different database. The purpose of this package is to load fact data, so it has to deal with few million of rows. Before setting DelayValidation to true, it takes few minutes just to open the package in BI Studio. Now with DelayValidation set to false, I can open the package without any problem. But it takes more than 5 minutes during Validation, Prepare for Execution and Pre-execution Phase. During the time the memory usage and cpu time on SQL Server goes up significantly. The CPU doesn't hit 100% though. My client machine doesn't have any significant activity.
I have similar packages ( Oledb view -> 3 or 4 lookup Transformations -> Oledb Table) but dealing with dimension data. With DelayValidaion set to False, those packages can be opened in BI Studio within few seconds. They also take only few seconds during those 3 phases before starting actual execution phase.
So I have an impression that the validation time depends on the amount of data in the database. Shouldn't it just depends on the metadata?
Im trying to figure out if there is a way to embed an ssis package into a c# winform?
I know that I can pass variables to a package and write the entire package out programatically, but im curious if there is a way to add the dtsx as an assembly or something. OR is there any tool that would take the ssis package and spit out its equivalent in code?
When I start executing my package a SQLDumper.exe pops up and Stops the package execution. In addition,SQLDumper.exe creates a SQLDUMPER_ERRORLOG.log file at my Desktop with the following content
