Data Contained In A CDATA Section In XML Is Lost
Aug 1, 2006
I know that anything in a CDATA section will be ignored by an XML parser. Does that hold true for the SSIS XML Source?
I am trying to import a large quantity of movie information and all of the reviews, synopsis, etc are contained in CDATA. example:
<synopsis size="100"><![CDATA[Four vignettes feature thugs in a pool hall, a tormented ex-con, a cop and a gangster.]]></synopsis>
Sounds like a good one, no?
The record gets inserted into the database however it contains a NULL in the field for the synopsis text. I would imagine that the reason for this would fall at the feet of CDATA's nature and that SSIS is ignoring it.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
I am trying to create a XML out of sql 2005 database using FOR XML. I
need to create XML for tables which may contain data having
non-printable ascii characters (1-32 ascii character). I found FOR XML
AUTO failes to genrate this XML, but i can genrate XML using CDATA
section in FOR XML EXPLICIT. As following querie works fine for me.
SELECT
1 AS tag
NULL AS parent,
template_id AS [Emailqueue!1!user_id],
misc1 AS [Emailqueue!1!!cdata]
FROM Emailqueue WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE queue_id = -2147483169
FOR XML EXPLICIT
in above query misc1 column may contain some non printable ascii
characters.
But i need to store this XML data in some sql XML variable as i need to
pass it to store procedure which expects an xml input. While doing
following i gets an error saying "illegal xml character"
DECLARE @XMLMessage XML
SET @XMLMessage = (SELECT
1 AS tag
NULL AS parent,
template_id AS [Emailqueue!1!user_id],
misc1 AS [Emailqueue!1!!cdata]
FROM Emailqueue WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE queue_id = -2147483169
FOR XML EXPLICIT)
I am doing all this exercise for SQL service broker. For which i even
need to process same message using OPENXML on differen database server.
Again which will need well formated XML.
Let me know if something dose'nt make sense
any help is appreciated
Thanks

Hi All,
I'm using some xslt documents to transform the xml output of my Reports
but have come across two curiosities where the xslt filter seems to
behave unusually.
Firstly, I need the final saved file to have an xml declaration, which
I believe it should do by default. Even if I put
omit-xml-declaration="no" in the xsl:output tag I don't get an xml
declaration. At present we have a custom job that writes these
declarations back into the xml after SRS has saved it.
Secondly and more importantly, I need to have some of my output tags
wrapped in CDATA sections. I've tried using the cdata-section-elements
attribute, again with no luck.
my XSLT looks something like this (simplified for space)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="utf-8" media-type="text/xml" omit-xml-declaration="no" cdata-section-elements="description"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="Report/table1/Detail_Collection/Detail">
<item>
<description>
<xsl:value-of select="@Description"/>
</description>
</item>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The output is something like:
<item>
<description>My first description text...</description>
</item>
<item>
<description>My seconddescription text...</description>
</item>
What I want is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<item>
<description><![CDATA[My first description text...]]></description>
</item>
<item>
<description><![CDATA[My secondfirst description text...]]></description>
</item>
All help gratefully appreciated.
Thanks - Andrew.

I'm trying to build a DTSX package that FTP's an XML file to the local file system and then imports it into an existing table.
My "Data Flow" for the package starts with an XML Source component and then goes to Data Conversion component and then to an OLE DB Destination component.
It all executes with out error and seems to work fine, but when I look at the data in the table after I've run the package it seems to have inserted the appropriate number of rows from the XML file but all of the column values are NULL.
All of the data in the XML file is surrounded by <![CDATA[ ]]> and I discovered that if I remove the CDATA wrapper by hand then it inserts the data properly. The only problem is that I'm not in a position to have the data provider remove the CDATA tags and some of the data in the XML file needs the CDATA wrapper or else it will not validate.
Anyone know of anything I can do to get the CDATA to import properly?

Hi,
Can anyone tell me is it possible to put static data (a string) inside details section of a table?
I've tried to find some more pieces of information in the Report Definition Language Specification, but to no avail.
When I put some strings as a detail's cells values they are displayed in the preview window in VS.
But thay are invisible when I open my report using ReportViewer in my app.
So does it means that the only accepted value of a cell within the details section of a table is a name of the field from DataSet (something like =Fields!FieldName.Value) ?
Regards,
Stan

How can I take this example Flat file and parse out each section to a new flat file? Each section starts with HD (header row)
http://www.webfound.net/flat_file_example.txt
e.g. an example output file based on above (cutting out the first section) would be:
http://www.webfound.net/flatfile_output.txt
Also, I'll need to grab a certain value in each header row (certain position in the 100 byte header row) to use that as part of the filename that's outputed. I assume it would be better to insert these rows into a temp table then somehow do a search on a specific position in the row...but that's impossible? The other route is to insert each row into a temp table separated out by fields but that is going to be too combursome because we have several formats to determine separation of fields based on the row type so I'd have to create many temp tables and many components in SSIS when all we want to do is again:
1) output each group (broken by each header row) into it's own txt file
2) use a field in the header row as part of the name of the output txt file (e.g. look at the first row, whcih is a header row in flat_file_example. txt. I want to grab the text 'AR10' and use that as part of the filename that I create
Any suggestions on how to approach this whole process in SSIS...the simplest approach that will work ?

Hello everyone,Small and (I think) very simple quesiton;-) which makes me creazy.Let's say I have two tables listed below:T1====IDX====134T2===============IDD fk_IDX===============A1A2A4B1B3B4C4D1D2D3D4I would like to select from table T2 all distinct records IDD whichhave all of fk_IDX containded in T1.The select statement should return in this case ONLY:B and Dbecasue:B has 1,3,4andD has 1,2,3,4 so it has this combination 1,3,4 contained in the T1also.I've tried to do that with group by, with having, in and it neverworks (I always became all records which one of them is in this T1table).Maybe some one from you did try something like that, and can give afast answer.I will be very greatfullGreatingsMateusz

I am using SQL Server to return a XML result set. I then perform a XSLT transformation on the returned result set to fill in HTML form text and select elements. The data returned includes the & character. This character correctly transforms, however I believe that the & is negatively impacting my form post (one of the form elements disappears from the posted data). How can I get around this?

I have tried both in sql server 2000 and sql server 2005 the following code:
DECLARE @DOC VARCHAR(100)
DECLARE @HDOC INT
SET @Doc='<datos><texto><![CDATA[línea átona]]></texto></datos>'
EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @HDOC OUTPUT, @DOC
SELECT * FROM OPENXML(@HDOC,'datos',2) WITH (texto nvarchar(50))
I always get an error 6603 in SQL2000 and 6602+8179 in SQL2005, wich means it can't parse the 'í' and 'á' characters, though they are in a CDATA.
I have tried with <,>,@ characters and it works fine.
I have also tried using 'á' and 'í' without CDATA but I get the same message:
DECLARE @DOC VARCHAR(100)
DECLARE @HDOC INT
SET @Doc='<datos><texto><línea átona></texto></datos>'
EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @HDOC OUTPUT, @DOC
SELECT * FROM OPENXML(@HDOC,'datos',2) WITH (texto nvarchar(50))

We lost all the data we had in a table. We restored the db and the transaction log up to a point in time, but could still not recover the table. We eventually only do db restore without the transaction log. We recovered the data in the table in question, but lost all the data entered that particular day. Does any body have a solution or suggestion that can help? I will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Guru,This weekend, I migrated SQL Server7.0 to 2000 and below is thescenarios:1.) At exactly 4:00PM on Sturday 17th, do full backup(T-SQL) and put adatabase into single user mode.2.) Copy both Saturday 4PM and Friday night full dump to the SAN.3.) Delete WinNT4.0.4.) Reinstall Win2003 and service pack3a.5.) Copy Saturday 4PM backup file to the server and do restore and douser ID mapping.This database is in full mode and I do log backup every hour. However,after restoring the database, any changes after the 14th were missing.Now, When I restored Friday night backup, we still recovered data tothe 16th. My question is, why the 17th 4PM backup did not copy anychange from 15th to the 17th Saturday?I still had Sturday backup file, howe can I recover the 17th data? Logexplorer or ApexSQLLog?Is this Disk issue?Thanks very much,Silaphet,

Hello All,
Thanks in advance for your help.
I am wondering if there is a correlation between the size of a database and the amount of RAM required in the server. Here's what's going on:
NT4.0 SP 6a, SQL 7.0
2-800 MHz Pentium III Processors
512 MB RAM
Swap Files: two, divided evenly between two partitions, min 512 per partition (dynamic)
3- 9.2 GB Drives, RAID 5
SQL Database size: 2.5 GB
The SQL administrators have a scheduled job set to dump the database every four hours, so they have 6 of these dump files per day. Seagate Backup Exec v 6.? backs up those files every evening. Of course, this is a mission-critical application.
As the NT/Hardware administrator, I was tasked to flash upgrade all the hardware that could be flashed. That happened about three weeks ago. Ever since I flashed it, getting the data dumps has been an inconsistent process. Sometimes it works, sometimes it errors out. The error message is " Lost Delayed - Write Data: The system was attempting to transfer file data from buffers to (path). The write operation failed, and only some to the data may have been written to the file."
On and off during the day, you can't even copy a small file on the server without receiving the same message.
Before I flashed the server, it was blue-screening and needing to be rebooted about once every two weeks. Since I flashed it, the server hasn't been rebooted, because it hasn't blue-screened.
The database dumps are about 2 GB. We were thinking that the way the dump process worked was that a snapshot of the data was put into memory before it was written to disk. We thought since the dump size was larger than Physical Memory + Virtual Memory, that that could be causing the error.
What do you guys think?
1. Is dumping the database first the preferred way to get a backup, or should a backup directly to tape be scheduled instead?
2. Do we have enough RAM for the database?
3. Are there special settings we should set for the RAID controller card to maximize throughput for SQL?
Thanks again. I am definitely not a SQL DBA and any information you can provide would be really helpful.

I have a website that is used to enter dates from a calendar. For example, user A might go to the website and select 20 different days in January. When user A clicks on the Save button the dates are written to the database with an INSERT command. This works fine. However, when user B then goes through the same procedure, say selecting 5 dates that are in the set selected by user A, those dates are properly saved in the database but the rows containing user A's same 5 dates disappear. I suspect this is something simple but I'm new and ignorant. Please help.

I am migrating from 2000 to 2005 and in the process of rewriting DTS to SSIS. So far so good.
I have an import of a flat file that I need to reproduce that works fine in DTS but throws SSIS.
The file contains details of products, and has a Long Description field that may contain lots of different chars - CR & LF amongst them. It's source and destination columns are Text type.
The file is tab delimited, text delimited with double quotes, with row delimiters of CRLF and column names on row 1.
The error SSIS throws is "The column delimiter for column "LongDescription" was not found"
I imagine (perhaps wrongly) that this is because of the extra CRLFs but it worked fine in DTS. It also previews fine, and lets me define the column properties OK in SSIS package designer.
Any help greatly appreciated. I am trying to avoid the obvious thing of replacing those chars in that field at this point as currently the export is shared between a live production server, and my test 2005 rig.
Thanks v much.
Chris.

I have two problems: First I can get the BCM to connect to the remote data but periodically the connection is lost and many times it requires a reboot to reconnect. Secondly related to teh first, I can never get MS Accounting 2007 to connect to the same server and database from my client.
I have already set up the server to use port 5356 via TCP amd added a hole through my client windows firewall for the same port. Both client and server are set to share files and printers.
