How To Be Dynamic The Argument Property Of The Execute Process Task

Mar 17, 2008

Hi All,
I have the following issue, i want to make dynamic the Argument property of the Execute Process Task but i couldn't able to do so, i have posted several times , hopefully i will get a solution today. I am using the following Argument to execute (winzip) program.
Argument: /e C:FTPFile1.zip C:FTPUnzipped
This Argument works but since File1.zip gets change every time, i mean it will be File2.zip, thus i have to change it manually on the Execute Process Task every time, however i want it to change by itself.
To make it clear, the /e mean winzip usage for extract file, the C:FTPFile1.zip is where the zipped file is, and the C:FTPUnzipped is where i dumped the unzipped files. as you see the file name will change every time like File1.zip, File2.zip, File3.zip, etc... Thus i want to make it daynamic, for example if i execute today File1.zip, then i have to execute tomorrow File2.zip automatically, and then File3.zip etc, that means the source file is changing every time, how do i make it then to be Dynamic.
Please help, i need your input badly.
Thank you in advance,

Value Of A Readonly Property Of Custom Task Is Not Updated In Property Window

Apr 17, 2008

Hi,

I developed a simple custom control flow component which has several read/write properties and one readonly property (lets call it ROP) whichs Get method simple returns the value of a private variable (VAR as string). In the Execute method the VAR has a value assigened. When I put the value of ROP or VAR into MsgBox I can see the correct value. However when I execute the component I can not see the value of the ROP in the property window. I see the property but its value is empty string. For example when I put a breakpoint to postexecute or check the property before click OK in a MsgBox I would expect that the property value would be updated in SSIS as well. Is there a way how to display correct values of custom tasks properties in property window?

Thanks for any hints.

Errors With Custom Task (Could Not Get Value For Property ...)

Jul 5, 2007

I wrote a custom task following the outline on MSDN. I signed it and installed it into the Tasks folder and in the GAC.

When I go to an SSIS project and add my task, the properties window shows "Could not get value for property 'd61935d9-430b-4c93-9f3e-a29f720d8659'. Specified cast is not valid." (where the guid is different obviously) for many of the properties.

What have I done wrong?

Update: I know this isn't my code because I tried a simple task that just returns success and doesn't do anything. I get the exact same errors, so I must be installing it incorrectly.

DTS 'Transform Data Task Property' GUI Window

Apr 15, 2005

I am importing data from xls file to a db table with a dts. In the time of the dts creation I am using 'Transform Data Task Properties' GUI window to map incoming xls fields (source) to the table columns (destination).
Question: Is there any way to invoke the 'Transform Data Task Property' GUI window in dts runtime and use it to change the mapping dynamically in the run time?
Thanks, Vadim.

Is Task.WaitForMe Property Ignored By SSIS Runtime?

Mar 24, 2007

Can the WaitForMe Task property be used for building eventing based tasks (that is, "tasks with no defined execution lifecycle"), as Haselden's IS book terms it?

The SSIS run-time would appear to never interrogate this property.
I tried setting a breakpoint in a custom task on the WaitForMe
property. The breakpoint was never hit at run-time. Design-time only. It seems that the run-time ignores this property.


The documentation states that "On completion of any task, the runtime examines tasks that are still running in
the container, and if any of these tasks have WaitForMe set to
false, those tasks will be canceled." Well, the tasks with WaitForMe set to false are in fact not cancelled (e.g. System::CancelEvent is not signalled).


The intention of the WaitForMe Task property is to allow for event based tasks to not prevent a package (or other container) from finishing if the event never happens.

Tasks like the WMI Event Watcher, Message QueueTask set to receive, and third party tasks like file watchers, or service broker queue receivers would seem to fall in this category.

Object Task Property Destroyes Package

Jan 9, 2007

Hi,

In a custom task I have a property of type Hashtable. This property gets changed by a custom UI. After changing the value and closing the UI, the Hashtable is properly filled during investigation in the validate() method.

Now saving the package and inspecting the XML file of the package, there is only this entry:

<DTS:ObjectData><InnerObject><PromotionCodes Type="12" Value=""/></InnerObject></DTS:ObjectData>

So it seems, that the value is empty and there is no further data to the object. Trying to reopen the saved package, the opening fails with something like (Had to translate it my own from german):

Error loading '<PackageName>' : Error loading a task. The contact information for the task is ''. This problem occurs on an error during task loading.

There should be a out of the box possibility to save collections or do you have to implement Load/Save XML your own if you have complex datatypes as properties? As the package has the element of the property included (but empty), it seems it tries to save it.

Anyone a hint. Anybody occuring the same behavior?

Thanks T.

SSIS Lookup Task - Best Practice Concerning Cachetype Property

Oct 26, 2006

SSIS data flow transformation - Lookup task - best practice concerning Cachetype

I would like to know if there's any best practice concerning the CacheType property for the the Lookup task. Default value is "Full", but if the SSIS package is working with at lot of data, i.e. +10 mill. records from the OLE DB source to be handled through a variated numbers of data flow transformation tasks, it must have an impact memory usage if the lookup table also is a large table, i.e. +8 mill. records? When should I consider turning the property value to "none"

How Do I Modify Union Data Flow Task Property?

Apr 4, 2008

I've created a Union All data flow task which unions string fields from a couple of queries. I found that I needed to increase the length of the string field in the queries. Increasing the length causes an error in my Union All task. I can't seem to find a way to change the property of the fields in the Union All task. Most of the other data flow tasks have an advanced editor where I can change the length or type of the fields on the input and or output. I can't seem to find this for the Union All task.

Is there any way short of deleting the Output column and recreating it? (I like the order of my original output columns)

Thanks,

Custom Task Not Updating Property Values Or Saving.

May 2, 2008

Hi Folks,

I have a task I wrote which does not always update the property value (as seen in the properties pane)
Basically, change something on the form, then update the task host property with:
this.taskHostValue.Properties["Duration"].SetValue(this.taskHostValue, Convert.ToInt32(spnDuration.Value));

Stepping through this, it does exactly what it is supposed to. Having a look at the property value, it confirms it has changed.
Reopening the UI and resetting all the controls returns the expected results.

The package however does not realise it has changed. There is no * next to the package name in the top tabs.
As long as the package thinks it is unchanged, SaveXML does not get called either so the tasks do not persist.

Changing the value on the properties pane works fine though.

The frustrating thing is this is slightly random. Slight in the sense that sometimes it works but most of the time it does not.


The sample code I used was the MS download IncrementTask (Which works BTW) so I can't see it as being a VS / SSIS bug but rather something I am / am not doing. 3 tasks I have written all behave the same. I have to "nudge" them before savign the package.

Any ideas what the problem might be?



TIA


Cheers,
Crispin

Using Disable Property For Data Flow Task Dynamically ?

Mar 18, 2008

hello guys,

I am having trouble with using disable property in the expression for data flow task. Here is the issue as explained below-

lets say i have 3 tables TableA, TableB, TableC from which i need to export data. So i create a table (TableList) where I save these table names and a unique id to these tables. e.g.

TableList will have-
TableName TableID
TableA 1
TableB 2
TableC 3


in the ssis package select these tableNames & Ids from tableList in Execute SQL Task. And assign the result set to a variable object (@TableList.

Then i use For Each Loop Container (For Each ADO Enumerator) , to loop through these tablesnames & iDs

Inside this loop container, i define three data flow tasks one for each table. So i have DataFlowTaskA (For TableA), DataFlowTaskB(For TableB), DataFlowTaskC (For TableC).

Now for a given table selected in the iteration, only the corresponding DataFlow Task should be exeuted. e.g. For the 1st iteration, if TableA is selected then only DataFlowTaskA should be executed and DataFlowTaskB& C should be skipped.

In order to achieve this, I am using a 3 variable @FlagA, @FlagB, @FlagC (type Boolean) one for each Table. and use the value of these flags for the "Disable" property of the data flow task (so @FlagA will be used for Disable property in the Expression for Data FlowTaskA, and so on..)

SotThe First Step inside the Loop, I use Script Task. (Input for the script task: read variable is @TableID and Read/Write varaibles are these 3 flags)

In this script task, I initialize these flags to true or false appropriately. So this is what i do


If (Dts.Variables("TableID").Value.ToString = "1") Then
Dts.Variables("@FlagA").Value = False
Else
Dts.Variables("@FlagA").Value = True

End If


If (Dts.Variables("TableID").Value.ToString = "2") Then
Dts.Variables("@FlagB").Value = False
Else
Dts.Variables("@FlagB").Value = True

End If


So in the 1st iteration, (if TableA comes) @FlagA=False and B&C will be True.
So the Disable property for DataFlowTask will be set false and for others it will be set to True. Thus, only DataFlowTaskA will be executed.

And this action should be repeated for each input table. this is the logic.



However only for the 1st iteration(say TableA is selected) it behaves as above. i.e. DataFlowTaskA is executed and DataFlowTaskB & C are skipped. But in the 2nd iteration(say TableB is selected) , it again executes DataFlowTaskA and doesnt exeute B & C (where it should have executed B & skipped A&C).

I do set daelay validation to true for all these but it still it doesnt working as expected. Even I checked the values for all the flags for each iteration and they seem to get the correct values. But somehow Diable propery in the expression not behaving as it should.

Am i missing anything. Do i need to set any other property to make this work.


I apprecite any help.

Thanks

Engine Thread Property Of Data Flow Task

Apr 3, 2006

Hi guys,

The default Engine Thread property of a data flow task is set to 5, is this the best setting? what if I would like to run complex data flow tasks on multi-processor machines, should I increase the engine thread? If so, then what is the recommended Engine Thread number for running complex data flow tasks in a multi processor system?

Even if i am running simple data flow tasks on a multi processor machine, should I change the engine thread?

Thanks!

Send Mail Task Not Updating The ToLine Property Dynamically

Sep 19, 2007

Hi,

I am facing a very strange issue with the Send Mail Task:
I am fetching the recipient from a Recordset and storing it in a variable (MailList).

Now, I modify the Send Mail Task to include an Expression which updates the "ToLine" property with the email address in the "MailList" variable.

Moreover, I am not hard-coding the "To" property in the "Mail" tab of "Send Mail Task Editor" and leaving it blank. Now, it does not allow me to execute the package and gives me a "Package Validation Error" saying: No recipient is specified.

Any solutions?

Thanks in advance.
Regards,

This Task Or Container Has Failed, But Because FailPackageOnFailure Property Is FALSE, The Package Will Continue.

Apr 5, 2007

This task or container has failed, but because FailPackageOnFailure property is FALSE, the package will continue. This warning is posted when the SaveCheckpoints property of the package is set to TRUE and the task or container fails.



I have just spotted the message above in one of my log files.



I've never noticed it before. Is it new in SP1? I'm guessing it must be.



If so - good job. This is a very important addition because the behaviour of checkpoints without setting FailPackageOnFailure=TRUE is not intuitive (in my opinion).

Copy &&amp; Paste Of Custom Task Loses Internal Property Settings

Sep 21, 2006

We have a built a custom control flow task that we use frequently. It has a simple user interface form where we can set certain properties. Problem is, after I configure it once and then copy and paste it all of the internal property settings seem to be lost on the newly pasted task. When I open up the editor for the task all of the properties are displayed visually in the editor form, but the properties pane is empty.

How can this be corrected?

Using A Variable In An Expression To Populate The Executable Property Of An Execute Process Task In SSIS

Jan 22, 2008

Hello,

I am having a hard time setting the executable path for an Execute Process Task in SSIS. I have a variable that is initialized at package statup which holds the path to an executable in Windows. When I set the property "Executable" Path in an expression, I get a warning that the path for the executable is not set. One workaround was to try and initialize the variable with a bogus path with the hopes that the "correct" value will be written on run-time. NO LUCK. I still get the error and I cannot run the package until I put a static path.

Does anyone have a clue as to what is going on??

Reg:- Assign File Properties To SSIS Varibales(Custom Task) In Property Grid Progrmatically.

Jul 6, 2007

HI,

I need to open a File through File connection manager and want to assign these file properties to SSIS precreated varibale or Newly created varibale. I want to show file properties in Propertygrid. Properties grid will conatin File Propeties Column and SSIS varibale Combobox column. The combo box will contain New variable field. When user select New Variable field, then a new SSIS varibale window will open and we can able create New variable and that Newly created variable should add to that property comboBox.



For Instance if we create a new varibale Name "Creationdate" by clicking on New Varible in ComboBox, then that CreationDate variable should add to Property ComboBox in PropertyGrid. After adding when we select that variable Name "Creationdate" then that selected file Creation date should assign to SSIS varibale "Creationdate" field.



Any Comments or sample will help me.

Transfer SQL Server Objects Task Throws An Error Because The DropObjectsFirst Property Does Not Check Whether Object Exists.

Apr 19, 2006

I wanted to create a package to copy the objects from one database to another and replace those object if they already exist. Therefore, before the package executes you do not know whether all the objects exist on the target server or only some of them.

Using the 'Transfer SQL Server Objects Task' I have found that I cannot get this to execute cleanly by itself. If I set the 'DropObjectsFirst' to false then an error is thrown if the object exists and if I set it to true then an error is thrown if it does not exist.

In order to get round this I have had to create an 'Execute SQL Task' to list all the objects and then go through them dropping them on the target server in a for each loop before executing the 'Transfer SQL Server Objects Task' with 'Transfer SQL Server Objects Task' set to false.

However, is there a better way of achieving this or am I missing something in the 'Transfer SQL Server Objects Task'?

XML TASK XSL Variable: Exception 'Property New Source Has No Source Xml Text'

Dec 20, 2005

Hi,
I want to transform an xml flow to an html flow. For this, I create an XmlDataDocument, I add on it, all that I want, and I store it in a file (in a dataflow task).
After that, in an xml task, I set the input properties like that:
Operation type: xslt
SourceType: File connection
Source: ras.xml
 
All works fine. But now, I want to use a variable to store my xml data. So, instead of storing my data in ras.xml, I store it in a variable like that:
 
Dim v As Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.IDTSVariables90
Me.VariableDispenser.LockOneForWrite("RAS", v)
v("RAS").Value = doc.OuterXml
v.Unlock()
 
and in the xml task, I set configuration like that:
 
Operation type: xslt
SourceType: Variable
Source: user::RAS
 
But when I execute, I got this following exception:
 
Error: 0xC002F304 at Format HTML Mail, XML Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "Root element is missing.".
Error: 0xC002928F at Format HTML Mail, XML Task: Property "New Source" has no source Xml text; Xml Text is either invalid, null or empty string.
 
Furthermore, when I want to debug it, in replacing the xml task, by a script task, I can see that in my RAS variable, I get the xml data which is well formed.
 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root> €¦
</root>
 
(When I store it in a file, I can see it in IE)
 
Have you got an idea ?

Changing Code Page Property Using Property Expression Doesn't Work

Jun 16, 2006

I am having problems exporting data into a flat file using specific code page. My application has a variable "User::CodePage" that stores code page value (936, 950, 1252, etc) based on the data source. This variable is assigned to the CodePage property of desitnation file connection using Property expression.

But, when I execute the package, the CodePage property of the Destination file connection defaults to the initial value that was set for "User:CodePage" variable in design mode. I checked the value within the variable during runtime and it changes correctly for each data source. But, the property of the destinatin file connection doesn't change and results in an error.

[Flat File Destination [473]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "Column01" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".

[DTS.Pipeline] Error: The ProcessInput method on component "Flat File Destination" (473) failed with error code 0xC02020A0. The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput method. The error is specific to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data Flow task to stop running.

If I manually update the variable with correct code page and re-run the ETL, everything works fine. Just that it doesn't work during run-time mode.

Can someone please help me resolve this.

Thanks much.

How To Use The Dynamic Properties DTS Task

Jan 10, 2005

Hi,

I recently came across a DTS made by an experienced DBA and was impressed by the use of Dynamic Properties DTS Task used. As I understood the DTS was generic and if I'm not mistaken, can be easily transferred to another server/machine on an AS IS basis and without having to change any of the properties (server name, login, password etc.) for the source or destination server.

This seems to be a really neat feature.

I tried to put this to use but am having problems regarding how to proceed... Unfortunately I have not been able to find any article either which addresses this particular request and takes a novice step by step so that this feature can be used.

Will appreciate any help.

Thanks

Web Service Task With Dynamic Url

Jan 4, 2008

I have a web service running from multipule locations. Its the same service at all the locations. I am trying to use a for loop to execute a web service task dynamically setting the url of the http connection manager that the webservice task uses. I have succesfuly done this, but the task is using a url from the wsdl file that is stored locally to access the service regardless of what the url is in the http connection manager is. Is there any way to force the web service task to download the wsdl file every time it's executed or is there an easier way for accomplishing this?

Sql 2000 Dynamic Properties Task

Feb 26, 2001

Hi,
DTS now has a dynamic properties task in sql 2000 which at a first glance is pretty cool. However i do not know if it would sort out a particular issue I have.

I need to have a generic DTS package that pulls data from different locations based on the project selected by a user. The source is a btrieve database
The name of the tables change with the project, so for example the F24 project would have its source table named F24TACT and the IFO source would have its source table named IFOTACT.

I need to be able to dynamically retrieve the table name from a local SQL table and assign this name to the data pump for the data extraction..

I don' t know if this is achievable in DTS. I can retrieve the value into a look up variable but how can i set it at runtime ?

thanks
Tony

Need Assistance With Dynamic Properties And FTP Task

Apr 4, 2007

Hello,I am building a packge where an FTP task needs to pull down a singlefileevery day from a specific location. The location will only have theone file.The file name will be different every day. A sample of one of the filenameslooks like this:CDNSC.CDNSC.SC00015.04012007The file names will be different every day, as the last eight digitsrepresent the date of the data in the file. The source files will belocatedin a subdirectory called 'outgoing'.My first approach to this has been to use a Dyamic Properties Task tosetthe SourceFileName of the FTP Task. I tried using a sting GlobalVariableexpressed as *.*.*.* thinking a wildcard would work, but it didn't.What approaches can I take so that the Source Filename in the FTP taskwilldymanically update each day to get the one file?Thank you for your help!cdun2

(URGENT) Cannot Be Written To The Property. The Expression Was Evaluated, But Cannot Be Set On The Property

May 7, 2008

Untill recently I had a smooth running SSIS package,but suddenly it throws error syaing
"OnError,,,,,,,The result of the expression

"@[User:trTextFileImpDirectory] +"SomeTextStringHere"+ @[User:trANTTextFileName] +(DT_STR,30,1252) @[User:taging_Date_Key]+ "SomeTextStringHere"
" on property "ConnectionString" cannot be written to the property. The expression was evaluated, but cannot be set on the property."

I have child SSIS package running under a parent package (through execute package task)

I have few flat file connection managers in child package for text file import , in which I am building text file path dynamically at run time by assigning an expression in connection string property of connection manager.
The Expression is as follows



"@[User:trTextFileImpDirectory] +"SomeTextStringHere."+ @[User:trANTTextFileName] +(DT_STR,30,1252) @[User:taging_Date_Key]+ +"SomeTextStringHere"

Where @[User:trTextFileImpDirectory] is a variable which contains path of directory containg text
files.Value in this variable is assigned at runtime from parent package's variable,which in turns fetch
value from a configuration file on local server.

With my current configuration this path has been configured to some other server's directory over network ( I.e my package picks text files from some other servers folder over network)

While
"Some string here"+ @[User:trANTTextFileName]" part of file name string.

(DT_STR,30,1252) @[User:taging_Date_Key] Contain the date of processing ,value in this variable is also picked up at run time from parent package variable.

1) So can someone give me some insight into possible reason of failures.
2) Is it possible that problem arises if directory (from which I m picking text files) is assigned password or is there exist some problem in accessing forlders over network ?
3) Or there can be some problem in package configuration at design time( I.e where I m assigning value in variable from parent package vriables)?

Dynamic Column Mapping - Dataflow Task

Oct 3, 2007

I was using the code in this thread (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1371094&SiteID=1) to create a console application which can build the SSIS package dynamically and run the package.

If the source column and destination column names are of different cases then the application was failing during the mapping. So I modified the for each loop like below. Still this is not a fool proof method, this will work as long as all characters in the column names are upper or lower.

for eg., Source column = empl_id, Destination column = EMPL_ID, in this case the below code will work. if the source column or destination column is Empl_Id, then the below mapping will fail.




Code Block
foreach (IDTSVirtualInputColumn90 vColumn in vInput.VirtualInputColumnCollection)
{
IDTSInputColumn90 vCol = destnDesignTime.SetUsageType(input.ID, vInput, vColumn.LineageID, DTSUsageType.UT_READWRITE);
try
{
destnDesignTime.MapInputColumn(input.ID, vCol.ID, input.ExternalMetadataColumnCollection[vColumn.Name.ToLower()].ID);
}
catch
{
destnDesignTime.MapInputColumn(input.ID, vCol.ID, input.ExternalMetadataColumnCollection[vColumn.Name.ToUpper()].ID);
}
}


So how can I map the columns irrespective of the cases?

Custom Task - Custom Property Expression

Aug 16, 2006

I am writing a custom task that has some custom properties. I would like to parameterize these properties i.e. read from a varaible, so I can change these variables from a config file during runtime.

I read the documentation and it says if we set the ExpressionType to CPET_NOTIFY, it should work, but it does not seem to work. Not sure if I am missing anything. Can someone please help me?

This is what I did in the custom task

customProperty.ExpressionType = DTSCustomPropertyExpressionType.CPET_NOTIFY;

In the Editor of my custom task, under custom properties section, I expected a button with 3 dots, to click & pop-up so we can specify the expression or at least so it evaluates the variables if we give @[User::VaraibleName]

Any help on this will be very much appreciated.

Cannot Set Connection Property Of Backup Database Task If Connection String Is Customized In Connection Object

Aug 23, 2006

I added a connection (ADO.NET) object by name testCon in the connection manager - I wanted to programmatically supply the connection string. So I used the "Expressions" property of the connection object and set the connectionstring to one DTS variable. The idea is to supply the connection string value to the variable - so that the connection object uses my connection string.

Then I added a "Backup Database Task" to my package with the name BkpTask. Now whenever I try to set the connection property of BkpTask to the testCon connection object, by typing testCon, it automatically gets cleared. I am not able to set the connection value.

Then after spending several hours I found that this is because I have customized the connection string in testCon. If I don't customize the connection string, I am able to enter the "testCon" value in the connection property of the BkpTask.

Is this an intrinsic issue?

BCP Task And Dynamic Import And Export Of A File Via Package Variables

Jul 3, 2006

I have a requirement to create many SSIS packages and no datatransform is required so the BCP task looks a good contender providing it can do both import & export

is it possible to parse the values in bold as package variables into the BCP task. If so how?

--Database connection info

ConfigurationFilter = 'MySSISPackageName'

ConfiguredValue = '.mssql2005'

PackagePath = 'Package.Connections[MyDatabaseName].Properties[ServerName]'

ConfiguredValueType = 'String'



ConfigurationFilter = 'MySSISPackageName'

ConfiguredValue = 'MyDatabaseName'

PackagePath = 'Package.Connections[MyDatabaseName].Properties[InitialCatalog]'

ConfiguredValueType = 'String'



I have looked at lots of options to automaticly create SSIS packages and have a hunch that that simple can be better: All these solutions look way to complex to what I want to achieve--
