Apologies if this has been posted before and feel free to point me to an existing thread if it has.
I currently have a dev, stage and live environment for a package
i have created a load.dtsconfig file that contains various bits such as connection strings, email to, from, etc which i created via the package configurations in the dev package. I then made a few changes via XML Notepad
I went to use the same config file on stage and decided to add a further property. I selected package configurations on stage and selected edit it the package configurations box, added the property and clicked finish. However it reset all the existing properties to the values that exist in the actual package so all the changes i made via XML notepad were overwritten.
Is there anyway you can get the Package configurations editor to retain the values from the .dtsconfig file rather than reading in the values from the package???
hi, all; i'd like to resolve this problem: We are Developing packages in Dev.Server; if we are Deploying our packages to Prod.Server; we need to modify the connection string and related properties of the connection manager. 1. How to modify the connection manager while deploying to production server? 2. can we create 2 dtsconfig file for a single package; is there any mechanism for instructing sequel server to use a particular dtsconfig file for our package.
i modified the config file in order to change the connection string. but its affecting only the config file not the package. while running the package its reffering the old connection string only.
When I edit package configuration files inside of Visual Studio, it puts all the XML on a single line. Does anyone know how to automatically spread the information onto multiple lines, to make comparing file differentials easier.
I am using a XML file and retrieving data for my SSIS 2005 (Intigration Service) package, where after retrieving the data I need to update my XML file with new data by using script task or XML task
When adding a SSIS DTSX package solution to Sourcesafe the SSIS Package Configuration file (.DTSConfig) is not included. We are using sourcesafe version 6.0d and Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Developers.
I'm trying to easily change a value in 80 ssis configuration files from "localhost" to "myservername". I downloaded WinGrep to do this, but it's balking on some of the files, saying that they are binary files.
Does anyone know how to make the *.dtsconfig files NOT binary in SSIS?
Any suggestions GREATLY appreciated.
I won't go into the reason I have my servername in 80 places...
Hi, i'm new in this forum and in SSIS, so I apologize if mine is a stupid question and also for my english.
I have this problem: i have to develop an ETL package and i have to set the transformation between input and output columns using a configuration file, i.e. my client want to change the transformation simply modifying a config file( for example from UPPER to LOWER ).
I tried using dtsconfig and setting EvaluateAsExpression with value 1( true ) and Expression UPPER[Column 2] but i get an error saying that Column 2 is not a variable.
I have an SSIS package with a small number of connections for various databases, both SQL2K5 and AS2K5.
When I build the package the .dtsConfig file is produced but the contents for some of those connections are not accurate relative to the package itself. There are some old values retained in the .dtsConfig file.
Worse, when I deploy the package to another machine the installation should allow me to change these values to ones appropriate for the new server. While I am able to change them they are not retained and the old values crop back up making the package fail during execution.
Any idea where I can smack this thing to unstick these values?
Would specifics help? I can post the file(s) if need be.
hi i want to know what are the purposes of dtsconfig file for the package. once we deploy our package, if we want to modify the connection string for the new excel source or data source or destination, how to modify the connection details at client site, or in the server,
please help me to modify these connection details after or before deployment at server machine.
I am going thru the Integration Services Tutorial found in Books Online and I'm on Lesson 3. It has to do with creating a configuration file for the source file location. I followed the steps and now I need to open the .dtsConfig file and type in the folder location.
The exact direction says,
"
In Notepad or any other text editor, locate and open the SSISTutorial.dtsConfig configuration file that you created by using the Package Configuration Wizard in the previous task.
Change the value of the ConfiguredValue element to match the path of the New Sample Data folder that you created in the previous task. Do not surround the path in quotes.
Save the change, and then close the text editor. "
When I open the file, I see this. What am I supposed to do here?
it would be really useful. it looks like the .dtsconfig file needs to be maintained on each install independently. This makes maintenance a nightmare. it would be a lot nicer if the .dtsconfig files were more like templates rather than hard coded values to specific system resources.
after i attached the file in package configurations .
i was unable to see the db connection in connection managers.
i tried to attach the .dtsconfig file in (New OLEDB connection manager) but after clicking the test connection " Testconnection failed because of an error in intializing provider.The connectionString property is not intialized"
I was requested to build and move and existing SSIS package from the developers local PC to the Dev server. Both are running SQL 2K5, I built the following command file so SQL Agent can run the import job.
REM *** Run for FileImport set FileImportLoadData=C:SSISConfigDEVFileImportLoadData.dtsConfig "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSBinndtexec" /f "C:SSISConfigFileImportFileImportLoadData.dtsx"
All files are in the proper place but when the jobs runs the following message shows up in the history;

My questions is how do I fix this and is this really and error?
I use an XML configuration file for my SSIS package, and I have "Enable package configurations" checked. When I build the package, however, there is no dtsConfig file in the output (set to in) or the Deployment folder, and the config file is not included in the SSISDeploymentManifest file. There are no build errors or warnings.
This was working fine the last time I worked on this package (~9 months ago), but not now. I have since installed SP2, but can't confirm if the problem is related to a "fix" in SP2.

But then it goes on to read values from my Production config file. How can I stop the annoying warning about my Development config file-path (which doesn't exist on the Production machine)
I am migrating from local to Dev,QA and Prod. I created a .dtsconfig file containing database connection strings to Dev database. What is the "location" on the Dev server where this .dtsconfig file nees to be deployed to??
I have setup a package configuration and it ran fine; however, I would like to be able to use the script task to change content of the dtsConfig file. For example, I can get the newServerName using the SQL Task, then how can I assign the newServerName value to the DataSource in the package configuration file? Is this possible?
I've deployed my ssis pkg to the server and created a sql job to run this pkg. So far, everything is fine. Today, I got a request to change some variables inside the package which is part of the .dtsconfig. I want to edit the deployed .dtsConfig but it won't allow me and always complained that this file has been opened by another program. I am sure i've closed my ssis designer and other notpad, why can't I edit and save .dtsconfig file?
I have a job/step that call a Fileprocessor.dtsx package with 4 different config files. I need to make a enhancement to the job to call the same package using a new (parent) package with multiple iterations based on some business condition.
I am going to modify the job/step to call ParentFileprocessor now with same all 4 config files which in-turn have a call to run Fileprocessor.dtsx; my problem is, how do I pass all 4 config files for child call? Using which task?
I m not allowed to modify Fileproessor.dtsx (to be child pkg) SQL2012, MSDB package deployment model.

I've just created a new maintenance plan (sql2k sp2) and attempted to re-enter it to make a change. right click - choose properities (or double click)...I see the dialog box 'flash' very briefly but it's not making itself available for editing.
I've deleted and recreated the plan ... same result.
