Data Conversion Failed. The Data Conversion For Column Value Returned Status Value 4 And Status Text Text Was Truncated Or On
Jan 7, 2008
Hi Experts,
I am extracting data from SQL Server 2005 to flat file destination. I am using SQL Command to specify the data selection query. One of my query uses Replicate function to derive a column value. When I execute this package it fails with the error "Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "value" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page".
The reason for the problem is that, it is taking the InputColumnWidth of the flat file destination as 8000 and I specified the OutputColumnWidth as 4.
If I change the OutputColumnWidth to 8000, it is working without any error but resulting in the column width of 8000.
I tried using DerivedColumn Transformation's Type cast and DataConversion Transformation but still I am getting the same error in the respective Transformation components.
Hi i am working on sending data from a dat file to table in sql server Database and i am using the Data conversion transformation in ssis to convert string of fixed length into numeric (11,5) which is the datatype for the price field in the table and its returning an error saying that status vale 6 and error text as Conersion Failed sue to overflow of specific type ... Can anyone let me know how to overcome this error.
I'm running sql server ver 7.0 SP4.I have an access project (.adp) that runs a view which is nothing morethan a select statement. Access locks up solid when I try to run thisquery - with NO error messages what-so-ever.If I sign onto the server, and run the view from enterprise manager - Iget:"the data provider or other service returned an E_FAIL status" !?!?!There is NO ERROR number, or further explanation of the message!!Now - this query DID work last week - all of a sudden I get this error- I've:1) repaired / compacted this database2) rebooted the server3) spent several hours searching websites & groups for an explanationa) I don't care how useless some people think enterprise manager is -at least it gave me SOME kind of error; where access just locks up!b) There are no issues with null values, or problem date fieldsanywhere in these tables.4) tried MANY variations on the query, and am now more confused thanever.5) I've RUN THIS QUERY IN AN ACCESS MDB WITH LINKS TO THE SQL SERVER -AND IT WORKS!?!?!?!?The query I'm using follows; if I remove ONE field from the selectstatement - this query RUNS!!!It doesn't matter what field I remove! It's as if, I can only have somany fields in the select statement!?!?!?This is clearly ridiculous since the query ran fine last week with thesame number of fields, not thatthat should have anything to do with this, as sql shouldn't care howmany fields I request.I'm not actually requesting any fields in the last table - but if Iremove this table it works!? If I leave this table, and select fieldsfrom it, but remove another table - again it works!So my questions:1) What [T-] is going on here?2) Why would an mdb be able to run a query that an adp can not!?!?3) When will microsoft ever release a product that provides usefulerror messages?I really don't expect an answer to #3, because I know the answer isNEVER - microsoft doesn't want to make solving problems easy.Here's the query I'm using:SELECT codes.proj_id, answers.report_date,answers.release_date, answers.notes,answers.answer_date, answers.answer_person,answers.answer, answers.answer_status,answers.answer_person2, codes.cust_idFROM dbo.codes LEFT OUTER JOINdbo.demos ONdbo.codes.code = dbo.demos.code LEFT OUTER JOINdbo.answers ON dbo.codes.code = dbo.answers.codeany help appreciated - TIABob
I'm running the following SQL query from LabVIEW, a graphical programming language, using the built in capabilities it has for database connectivity:
DECLARE @currentID int SET @currentID = (SELECT MIN(ExperimentID) FROM Jobs_t WHERE JobStatus = 'ToRun'); UPDATE [dbo].[Jobs_t] SET [JobStatus] = 'Pending' WHERE ExperimentID = @currentID; SELECT @currentID AS result <main.img>
This is the analogous code to main() is a C-like language. The first block, which has the "Connection Information" wire going into it, opens a .udl file and creates an ADO.NET _Connection reference, which is later used to invoke methods for the query.
<execute query.img>
This is the inside of the second block, the one with "EXE" and the pink wire going into it. The boxes with the gray border operate much like "switch" statements. The wire going into the "?" terminal on these boxes determines which case gets executed. The yellow boxes with white rectangels dropping down are invoke nodes and property nodes; they accept a reference to an object and allow you to invoke methods and read/write properties of that object. You can see the _Recordset object here as well. <fetch recordset.img>
Here's the next block to be executed, the one whose icon reads "FETCH ALL". We see that the first thing to execute on the far left grabs some properties of the recordset, and returns them in a "struct" (the pink wire that goes into the box that reads "state"). This is where the code fails. The recordset opened in the previous VI (virtual instrument) has a status of "closed", and the purple variant (seen under "Read all the data available") comes back empty.
The rest of the code is fairly irrelevant, as it's just converting the received variant into usable data, and freeing the recordset reference opened previously. My question is, why would the status from the query of the recordset be "closed"? I realize that recordsets are "closed" when the query returns no rows, but executing that query in SSMS returns good data. Also, executing the LabVIEW code does the UPDATE in the query, so I know that's not broken either.
after converting database from sql server 2000 to sql server 2005. my program on vb6 is facing runtime error. i.e.data provider or other service returned an E_Fail status .
I am running an Access adp application with SQL Server 2005 as back end database. I run a query by using Management Studio query window, and it returned correct results with some columns containing NULL value. But when I run this query through MS Access client side, popup an error "Data provider or other service returned an E_FAIL status" and crash the Access application. I moved the database back to SQL Server 2000, and it runs perfect on both client side and server side returning the correct result. This query is important for the application. Please help!!!!

We have a text field which is being written to from a java app through JDBC-ODBC. But the data seems to be trucated in the DB. How do we store all the data in this field (the text being stored can be quite large) without it being truncated?
I have an odd problem that is driving me nutz. I have a very simple SSIS package that imports a 5 colum flatfile into a sql Server 2005 Table.
When I created this package with the wizzard, it will execute perfectly fine and processes all rows into the destination table.
But when I hit F5 to execute it manually it will fail before inserting a single row.
The error it generates is (Spalte 5 is a Datetime in the format DD.MM.YYYY) :
Error: 0xC02020A1 at Datenflusstask, Source - Daten_NC_1_txt [1]: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "Spalte 5" returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".

I have a a table which has a column:material_desc nvarchar(255)...I am loading data using SSMS import from a csv file. While laolding a line:Concentrate of Poppy Straw (Material Specification Name)I get error: Error 0xc02020a1: Data Flow Task: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "Column 1" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".I though this error was because 255 size in nvarchar is 255, so I increased it to 1024, but I still got this error. I do not think error is because size of my column is small; it has to do something else. I changes Specification Name to Sprec Name, then row was loaded.
I come from Oracle background. I fail to understand reasons for trunction; is there some option to be set, but import wizard does not provide any options.

I using Locale (People's Republic of China) and code page of 936 (Simplied Chinese GBK) with header row delimiter {CR}{LF}.
I am using flat file import method.
Whenever the server process the Column 42 with value "11,Nanjing Rd.W, China" which contain 'comma' or '.' it will hit error importing with above message. When i manually change the column value to non comma or '.' (11 Nanjing Rd W China) in the flat file it is ok.
I am using SQL server 2005.
Please advise what need to be done to avoid this error ?
Thanks in advance and any idea or suggestion is very much appreciated as i have try to solve this issue for over a week but still not able to find any answer on it.

I have a problem while transforming data from an Access DB to an SQL 2005 DB.
Context: - Migration of packages from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 - DB SQL 2005 is a back up from SQL 2000 - The access DB is the same than the one used with SQL 2000
Error: [OLE DB Source [1]] Error: There was an error with output column "ID" (32) on output "OLE DB Source Output" (11). The column status returned was: "Conversion failed because the data value overflowed the specified type.".

NB: All those components are default configured
Previous tests executed:
1. OLE DB Source Preview : OK, same records. 2. Error redirection to flat file for ID column : here are the first records
3. Execute the transformation on the SQL2000 server, for the same Access DB, to the initial SQL 2000 DB : OK, no error.
Questions:
- Do you have an idea of what differs between SQL2000 and SQL2005 in this kind of situation? - Why is this working for 2000 and not 2005? - Why the error message says "output column "ID" (32) on output "OLE DB Source Output" (11). ". Shouldn't it be something like "output column "ID" (32) on input "ID" (11). " (with the second ID column for the SQL DB). - May be the error comes from my connections parameters, one parameter which doesn't exists in SQL2000?
I have a table with the following structure for which I execute a SELECT statment against to retrieve the value of a particular NoteText field. Every time I execute the select the Notes are truncated in the returned recordset and I cannot get it to return the full value. I have tried various options, Cast/Convert, Set TEXTSIZE, etc but to no avail. Advice?

When i am running package thru SQL server job and getting follwing error:

There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure. SSIS Error Code DTS_E_THREADFAILED. Thread "WorkThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0209029.
In the package, i am selecting data from SQL Server database into query(billing_table) and inserting data using destination task into SQL server table(stg_billing_table). Both table has same data type datetime for Billing_date.
Here are couple of points:
1) When i am trying to execute same insert statement thru SQL Server editor, it is running successfully.
INSERT INTO stg_billing_table (Billing_date) SELECT Billing_date FROM stg_billing_table;
2) When I am running package from Solution explorer then also it works fine.
Issue only comes when i try to run package thru SQL server job. one point, There are lot of other task running parallel to this package when we run thru JOB.
One more thing which i have observed that when i tried to see input transformation datatype for same column in package, it is DT_DATABASETIMESTAMP. Well i am not able to understand that it may be potential issue because if it is related to DT_DATABASETIMESTAMP to date time conversion then we should have faced this issue while running thru solution IDE.
Issue looks related to database level buffer/ Memory overflow etc. to me. Can somebody help me understanding the issue?

The problem is our dateformat is dmy, i try to force with set dateformat dmy, but always i execute a stored procedure that have a date as input it fail. The error is:
Msg 295, Level 16, State 3, Procedure pa_CalendarioGestion, Line 40 Conversion failed when converting character string to smalldatetime data type.
The code of stored procedure in this line is:
set @diaActual = dateadd("d", @i, @fechaInicio)
This stored procedure in sql server 2000 in spanish not have any problems. For this reason i think the problem is in the configuration.
