I'm looking for a way to dynamically set the CacheType property of a Lookup transformation via a configuration variable. Is this possible? The CacheType does not appear to be a selectable property when choosing which properties to export to a configuration file. Can this property be manipulated through a script task inside the package?
View 10 RepliesHi all,
I am able to pick the complete path of a file name into a variable using "foreachloop container" (e.g :- c:dpakab.xls).
How should i pass this file name in excel source. And how excel source will pick sheet name from this(ab.xls) file.
I will have to flow the data from excel to access and i must have to select file name by using variable. Can any one help me?
I will be thankful.
Thanks,
Good Afternoon,
So this one has been bugging me for a while and I am ready to punt...
Is it possible to dynamically create a text file destination in SSIS and then pump the results of a query stored in a variable to this text file?
So my package looks like this
1) SQL task that pulls back a list of tables to be exported
2) For Each Loop ADO enum that passes the table name to a SQL Task that builds the select...ie select * from <DTS.Variables()>
3) Data flow task that sets the command from variable from step 2
4) Text File destinaiton that is built using a varable as the connectionstring
I am delaying validation in steps3 and 4 above without any luck...basically I am curious if i can even do what I am thinking I should be able to do here...I get as far as getting metadata errors because SSIS can't seem to handle dynamically filling the pipeline with the columns from the variable/SQL statement.
Am I missing something? Is this possible?!
Thanks in advance.

HI, I use a lookup transform on one of my dataflow. My data look a bit like this (the actual data is more complicated, kit is a combination of type 1 - description and type 2 - code):
ID Code Description
--- -------- ----------------
1 AAA PRODUCT1
2 AAA PRODUCT2
3 AAA PRODUCT3
4 BBB PRODUCT4
The problem is simple: I would like to insert ID 1 and update it with subsequent rows that have the same code.
If the lookup transform finds a match, the row is updated, else, the row is inserted (using the error path of the lookup) via an OLE_DB command. The lookup cachetype is set to none. My problem is all rows are inserted. But if I use a second lookup that gives me the ID using the Code column, the second lookup sees the inserted data.
My question is why the second lookup is able to find out the inserted data while the first one cannot? The SCD wizard cannot resolve this either. I resolved this by using an asynchronous script component and manage the logic in there. But, still, a lookup with no cache (roud trip to the DB every time) should be able to do the job.
Thank you,

Hi,
1. If I have millions of rows to be compared, then which cache type is prefereed for lookup, Partial or no caching?
2. If I have lookup connected to Oracle Oledb, cache type as partial and SqlCommandParam as following
select * from (SELECT ORDER_ID, OPER_KEY, STEP_KEY, SUM(OCCUR_COUNT) AS OCCUR_COUNT FROM SFWID_OPER_DESC_EXPLD GROUP BY ORDER_ID, OPER_KEY, STEP_KEY) refTable where refTable.ORDER_ID = ? and refTable.OPER_KEY = ? and refTable.STEP_KEY = ?
then it doesn't allow me to add the parameters from Advance tab of Lookup transformation edition, and raises following error
"Provider cannot derive parameter information and SetParametInfo has not been called"
what am I missing?
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"

An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by thefact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remoteconnections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could notopen a connection to SQL Server)
The problem is that I don´t have SQL Server 2005 installed so I don´t know why my webapp is trying to contact it, where I can configure this settings so it will look for the Server that exists?

In my DAL, I have 3 tables -
Footballer (FootballerID = Primary Key)
Aspnet Membership Table (UserID=Primary Key)
Favourite Footballers (Junction Table with 2 Primary Keys FootballerID and UserID - both with foreign relationships to their respective data table)
On my sports site, visitors can view various footballers and store their favourites in th FavouriteFootballers Table by clicking on a button.
This stores the Logged in UserID and FootballerID in the junction table.
I now need to write a select query that allows users to click a link and view their favourites which they stored - lets say in a data list on another aspx page.
This would include other columns from the Footballer Table such as Name, Age, Profile ect
I think I am right in that I need to use a Select clause as I am using SQl data adapters in the DAL.
Be very pleased if someone knows how to contruct the query and give me an example how to code a method in the BLL
Some code is below
Method that Stores FootballerID and UserIDprotected void DataList1_ItemCommand(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e)
{
// Assuming only have one button in the item templateInt32 fid = Int32.Parse(e.CommandArgument.ToString());Guid userid = (Guid)Membership.GetUser().ProviderUserKey;
// Connect to the db and insert the recordusing (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\MyDatabase.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"))
{
string query = string.Format("INSERT INTO FavouriteFootballer(UserID, ArtistID) VALUES('{0}',{1})", userid, fid);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(query, con);
con.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();
}
Code in FavouriteFootballersBLL
Its not complete -withotu parameter - i think maybe I also need to reference the Footballer Table and not the Junction one
[System.ComponentModel.DataObjectMethodAttribute(System.ComponentModel.DataObjectMethodType.Select, true)]public DataSet1.FavouriteFootballerDataTable GetFootballerFavourites()
{
return Adapter.GetFootballerFavourites();
}

I cannot create a Distribution Server on SQL Server 2005 SP1. When I right click on Replication and click "Configure Distribution" and hour glass appears for a minute, and then nothing happens.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have installed SP2 on my SQL 2005 instance which also houses RS of course. Additionally I installed WSS3.0 without configuring it so it has the Object Model installed (should be enough?)
I am running WSS 3.0 on a seperate Server and have the Add-in installed on there.
Following the installation instructions I am going to Application Management to configure WSS, but there is no section called "Reporting Services". Looking on the Report Server, in the Configuration I see the following error under the SharePoint Integration Setting:
The report server cannot access settings in the SharePoint configuration database. Most likely, the Windows SharePoint Services object model is not installed or the Report Server Web Service and Windows service accounts do not have access to SharePoint databases. To configure service account access, use SharePoint Central Administration.
In my SharePoint Site I do see a SharePoint section under the "Site Settings" for managing shared schedules but I think the main issue is, that I don't see that section in Central Administration.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

We have an 8gb SQL server running Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition that simply will not get above 3gb of memory usage. We are using SQL 2000 Enterprise edition, version 2040 - SP4. My boot.ini has been configured with /3gb /PAE. System Properties does list Physical Address Extension as being enabled. AWE is enabled, and has been verified in the SQL server logs. Lock pages in memory access has been given to the account SQL is started under. Under task manager, the process sqlservr.exe does not grow above 2,762,428 ish. Does anyone know why this is occuring?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been working on a WinForm application (C#) that connects to a database on an external server. My connection string has always been the following and has always worked:
string strCon = "Data Source=static_ip_address;Initial Catalog=someDatabase;User Id=admin;Password=*****";
The specified credentials are actually the physical server's only and local windows account - admin. Contrary to the fact that specifying a user id and password in the connection string uses SQL Authentication, this is practically Windows Authentication as I haven't configured any roles, logins or users in the database or SQL server instance.
Recently there was a power outage and the server was offline. After going back online, my application can no longer communicate with the server. I even modified the connection string to the following and ran the application on the server itself and it still
won't work:
string strCon = "Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=someDatabase;Integrated Security = True";
There's obviously something wrong with the server that prevents it from accepting any incoming SQL connections; even those originating from it. I am able to ping the server and even remotely access it from a different network but no SQL connections are being established.

Hi all,
I'm having a problem configuring one of my SQL servers
as a distributor. I've done it successfully on another
server, so I know that it's nothing procedural and there
must be an issue with the way the server is set up.
When I click 'finish' on the Configure Publication and
Distribution Wizard, I get the following error message:
Enterprise Manager could not configure 'ABEL' as the
distributor for 'ABEL'.
Error 20017: Cannot add the remote distributor at this time.
Make sure that the local server is configured as a Distribution
Publisher at the Distributor.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm fairly new
to SQL Server, so feel free to explain things in a
condescending manner. ;-)

View 3 Replies View RelatedOur company is going to use SAN (HP or EMC or Fuji) for SQL Server failover rather than MSCS. So far, DBA has no knowledge of SAN.
Would you please to tell me, how does SAN depend on SQL Server? I assume SAN software can make disk failover if there is a network, disk or OS failure in primary node. If SQL Server or SQL Agent is failure, can SAN software detect it? (or can SAN disk failover depend on SQL Server or SQL Agent services?)
Please let me know where can I find any configuration document regarding SAN for SQL Server failure. I had spent 2 days in HP and EMC wrbsite and found nothing.

Hello all,
I have a Production server which has 2gb of memory. SQL server memory is set to configure dynamically.
The Server also has a third party application on it. The third party application was running poorly, and the software vendors recommended running the following sql on a job every hour:-
exec sp_configue 'max server memory(MB)',500
reconfigure
exec sp_configure 'max server memory(MB)'1400
reconfigure
The hourly job has the effect of flushing out sql server memory every hour and setting the max amount down to 500mb and back up to 1400mb. SQL server still manages memory dynamically, so within the hour before the next time the job runs, sql server could use more than 1400mb.
I' feel that this job will degrade sql server performance because it will empty the buffer cache and procedure cache. My approach would be to select the 'use a fixed memory' option and set it to 1400mb, and not use their recommendation.
Does anybody have experience of this, and perhaps explain the consequence of running the recommended job every hour.
Any advice would be great.
