I'm importing an Excel file and massaging it with a custom script task. I get an error "Index was outside the bounds of the array." That error is helpful but I needed to know which of the 70,000+ lines the error occurred on. What is the best way of devbugging this issue? Try-Catch-Finally with messageboxes in the Catch clause?
Hi, In terms of data flow tasks, when say we load text files into databases.
Is it possible to have it in a way so that if a certain record (line in the text file) fails to load due to watever reason, it gets written to another table, but the rest of the records still get loaded?
I try to do so and end up with the whole data flow task failing and it stalls at the record that had the error and doesn't seem to continue forward.
I just used the red arrow (on failure) and put that to another SQL destination object. But yeah that didnt work.
If someone has a better way of doing so, would be awesome if you can share that.
I am using the Execute SQL Task to call a sproc which I am not in the design stream for, so I can call it but I cannot change it. I need to deal with the issue of handling an error from a call to this sproc- the stored procedure does not return any output variables nor a return value that I can nail, all I get is a failure in the task. The sproc itself is just a straightforward insert into a table which can fail for any of the obvious reasons (PK violation, bad data, null data et al). The point is I want to know which rows failed in the insert (moving data from one databases table to another one row at a time wiith the sproc being inside a loop task over a recordset variable populated via a data flow call to a SELECT statement) so that I can flag then as such so that when I am finished in my loop I am left with a bunch of rows that did not make the trip from database A to databases B - within the loop, for each row that the sproc call is successfull, will hjave another sproc follow it to delete it from the original, but I cannot get this far when my INSERT sproc call fails. I have tried changing the MaxErrorCount to a big number - ceratinly more than I need but it does not seem to matter .lCan you help me out here - or is the design flawed anyway?
I have a main package that calls several other packages using Execute Package Tasks. I also have OnPreExecute, OnPostExecute, and OnError event handlers at the package level to audit the beginning and completion of each package. I want to prevent each task from bubbling up to the package event handlers as well as prevent each task from bubbling up to the main package event handlers. I've tried setting the Propagate variable for each of the event handlers to False and setting the DisableEventHandlers property of each task to True but neither solution seems to work. Is there a way to do this that I'm missing?
When my ForEach Loop runs, when a file does not exist on the server, I am getting a File does not exist error.I would prefer to write a mesaage to my log and then move on to the next step successfully.When I got to Event Handlers and select OnTaskFailed, what do I want to do from here?
We currently have a SSIS package which is using a batch script . This batch script actually executes on TERADATA server and loads data in to terdata db. We did not get access to UNIX env so we are planning to create SSIS packages that can call the batch scripts and perform tasks on terdata.
Can somebody throw some light how to caputure the information if there is error in batch script or data loading and send a mail.
Ealrier we created packages that were doing data loading on SQL server and if something fails then we used error handling machanism in stored procedures which logs failure event in to SQL table and then using send mail task it send a email.
I nwant to know how to use error handling when something fails on terdata and send mail to us.
I have an Analysis Services Processing Task in my SSIS package. I run the SSIS package using SQL Server job, the running of the package is a job step.
When I process manually the analysis services objects (in practise cubes) using dtexec utility I get a lot of log. In case the processing fails I get error messages that quite well describe the error. But when I run the job the only information I get in the job log is that the job step failed. I know the failure happens in the Analysis Services Processing Task.
Is there any way in SSIS to get a) the log of the Analysis Services processing or b) the error messages of the Analysis Services processing? Or should the processing be done some other way than I've been doing?
I am trying to use this painful new SSIS process. I basically need to use a lookup task to check to see whether a record exists or not. If not, then I need to insert the record. However, because this is treated as an error situation (which is stupid in itself), I get a problem when the number of records not found reach the MaximumErrorCount, and the rest of the package fails. Is there any other method of doing this type of thing, without simply increasing the MaximumErrorCounty to some ludicrous value. I could do this type of thing very very very easily when using DTS packages using the Data Driven Task, it seems so stupid that I can't perform the same kind of task using SSIS.
Hi All, I have a requirement here to import data from XML file to SQL Database. The XML schema contains of various elements and one of the element is recursive ie. Parameter node contains parameter node within it and it can have n number of iterations. I have given the sample schema below:
But all the nodes contain the data which has to be imported to a single table dbo.Parameters. I cannot use Union ALL since i dont know how many iterations I will have in the file. Is there any way to do this operation in Data Flow Task using XML Source? Can anyone help me on this?

I would like to supress an Informational error that SQL is returning when I run a stored proc that I created. The error message returned is:
Warning: Null value eliminated from aggregate.
The values returned from the stored proc are the results from a 'select * from #tmp_tbl". Before returning the values, I simply create the temp table, populate it and then run the select statement. Prior to getting my results, I get the error message. Can I suppress it and how?
Hi there, Can anyone help me in catching @@error value. I have a stored procedure which return @@error value, I need to read that in my dataaccesslayer and act according to it. how do I catch the return value from stored procedure in my dataaccesslayer. if I am not wrong @@error return a bool value
dear friends i am writng a store procedure to insert into a two table .table 1 data inserted but when i inserting into a table2 it have some error at that time table 1 data also want to delete.give suggestions
I am writing a stored procedure that loads transaction logs to a database and I am having trouble trapping meaningful error messages. When ever the load fails, it gives me two error messages, the first one is meaningful and the second one just states that the load ended abnormally. Unforunately, when I capture the error using @@error after the load statement, it is the second error message that I am getting.
Is there anyway to trap the first error message as well?
I currently have defined a source server, a transformation, and a destination server using DTS. How and where do I create an error routine that would capture any and all errors that would occur. This would include connection error, transformation errors etc. I know the errors can be written out to a text file but I would like them written to a table on my destination server.
The DTS package will be called from an external program using the xp_cmdshell extended stored procedure. We are using it this way as a flag so if one transformation fails it will return a 1. If all are successful it will return a O. These will be our flags to check the errors table in the destination server.
Could someone tell me where this code is to go and what the code will look like. Samples would be the most help.
is there any way to do sometype of Error handling with in a Stored Proc? Example, If I have a deadlock, can I trap that error and execute other sql code or will always simply kill the stored proc?
I have a composite unique key on the audit_hub table that includes TimeStamp, UID, Type, Mailbox all as part of the unique key.
I’m trying to do inserts, and know that in some cases I will violate unique index.
I’m using stored procedure, and want to handle the error gracefully there – just move on.
Reading from text-based log files via .vbs and get back the nasty popup window.
Looks like I have it right but obviously I don’t considering how it’s (not) working.
I thought error handling would be the simplest way to avoid dupe records. Might be necessary to run the same log in more than once, and only want to add the new records since the last insert session.
Here’s what I have. It obviously simply halts and complains immediately after the insert attempt.
ALTER procedure eml_HubInsert @TimeStamp bigint ,@UID varchar(255) ,@Type varchar(255) ,@MailBox varchar(255) ,@ServerID varchar(50) as insert into audit_hub (TimeStamp,UID,Type,Mailbox,ServerID) values (@TimeStamp,@UID,@Type,@MailBox,@ServerID)
1 question: What Error-Handling msut i mplement in a trigger, who is updating permanently two tables in a database (with the follow commands: insert, delete and update) ???
I have some stored procedures that insert information from a third party plugin that hooks into our database (so I can't do any client side validiation). The problem I am encountering is that some of the fields I use need to be in DateTime format. In order for SQL SERVER 2000 to be able to insert this field, the Date has to be in the correct syntax or an error is thrown.
Is there any way to do something like this in SQL SERVER 2000
Code:
DELCARE @SomeDate DateTime
Try Set @SomeDate = CONVERT(DateTime, Parameter1, 101) Catch return custom error describing what field is formatted wrong and exit stored procedure END
I am running some bcp copies through a Sql job. I am copying 35 tables in individual steps. However, sometimes the bcp step fails to copy the data, and I want the step to fail if the data is not copied properly. Is that possible? If so, how? Any help is greatly appreciated.
I have this stored procedure that I need to add error handling to. How would I do that??
REATE PROCEDURE November2000 AS SELECT TM#, LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME, FINALSUITDONE FROM dbo.EmployeeGamingLicense WHERE (FINALSUITDONE BETWEEN CONVERT(DATETIME, '2000-11-01 00:00:00', 102) AND CONVERT(DATETIME, '2000-11-30 00:00:00', 102))
i wrote this sql, seems v.straightforward to me. It works first time round, sets the foreigh key, but second time round should error out to the handler - but it just reports the errors to the message out and dosn't seem to fire the errhandler.
Its gotta be a simple mistake - perhaps you could show me.
Can i any one help regd error handling while executing stored procedure.
Sample Sequence of execution :

I am calling some stored procedures from ASP. These strored procedures have to deal with lots of deletes and updates. So i have thought of implementing transaction commits and rollbacks. But if a rollback occurs in these stored procedures, i want to get a value back to asp page, based on this value i will run the next stored procedure.
hello. below is a very simple SP i have coded to insert a user into my database. i have created a unique index for the username column on my database table. if the username already i want to convey this to my C# code which is attempting the insert. i am using a combination of TRY/CATCH, RAISERROR and @@ERROR here to achieve my aim. could somebody please look at my code and tell me if the error handling code is OK, or is it overly complicated?
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @Error int;
BEGIN
BEGIN TRY INSERT INTO Users( Username, Password, FirstName, Surname, DateBirth, Email, Id_Country) VALUES( @Username, @Password, @FirstName, @Surname, @DateBirth, @Email, @Id_Country) END TRY BEGIN CATCH
need example on how to add event handling condetion in a package using ssis. my package runs in a loop. the loop creates a connection to diff servers and runs a dynamic query. i want to add a feature which would let the loop run in the event of connection failure for one server.
I have a stored procedure that inserts a new record into a table. The table it inserts into has a unique constraint that utilizes an identity column. Occassionally, this constraint gets violated due to the fact that the app running my stored procedure isn't the only application inserting into the table. Ideally, we would want to change the design to avoid this scenario but these are legacy applications that will eventually be sunsetted. My question is this; is there a way to handle the unique key constraint violation and prevent an exception being thrown in the app calling the stored proc? I know I can check for the error code and handle it within the stored proc but my app still gets an exception caught by the calling method. Can I prevent this from happening? I want for the insert to attempt again and if successful continue processing and not produce the exception. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
in analysis services when i proccess a cube i got an error that data from the fact table isnt exists in the dimenstion table for example fact table sales has column suplier that one of its row has data that doesnt match with the dimension table how can i handle this error ? can i insert instead someyhing else so that the proccess can continue and not failed ?
Hi, I'm trying to decide on the best method for dealing with errors in a DTS package. It is sufficient to retrieve Step failure information after package execution but I have tried both methods. Specifically, these methods are detailed in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/240221. Another article - http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;321525 - details the need to establish a single event sink to avoid "unexpected behaviour". I have used the code as described but noticed very little difference between post execution checking using GetExecutionErrorInfo and the PackageEventSink Interface. Using the Event Sink does retrieve one extra type of error, ie.
"Error at Destination for Row number 2. Errors encountered so far in this task: 1". This error will always give the row number as the last row in the file, in this case an excel file source. This is not really useful, but I don't want to detach the Event Sink because of the possibility of "unexpected behaviour". Could somebody advise? First is it possible to retrieve the line number, and secondly can anyone detail what an example of this unexpected behaviour might be? Finally, is there a way to retrieve a unique key constraint violation from a package if it occurs? It is only caught in the generalised way and produced as "Error at Destination...". Thanks in advance
Hello, I'm mainly a .net dev and now I want to create a TV function using the CLR inside SQL Server but I have some doubt about the error handling in the function itself and in t-sql.
I have a SP (that I suppose will have a BEGIN TRY ... END TRY BEGIN CATCH ...END CATCH) that call my TV function to get a table made of one row and 2 columns.
My TV function calls some private functions that uses .net classes so I want to handle the exception the potentially could happens.
But these expection shouldn't thrown the error to the caller SP because the SP must continue iven if there is a error but I would to inform somehow the SP that the fields in the table are null because something went wrong
Public Shared Function GetDates(ByVal UTCInputDate As Date) As IEnumerable
Dim StartDate As Date
Dim EndDate As Date
Dim rowArray As ArrayList = New ArrayList
Try
Dim GetDates (1) As Object
GetDates = Function1(UTCInputDate) 'Function that can cause exception directly or indirectly
GetDates (0) = StartDate
GetDates (0) = EndDate
rowArray.Add(GetDates)
Catch ex As Exception
????
End Try
Return rowArray
End Function
Private Shared Sub FillDatesRow(ByVal obj As Object, <Out()> ByRef StartDate As SqlDateTime, <Out()> ByRef EndDate As SqlDateTime)
Try
If obj IsNot Nothing Then
Dim row As Object() = CType(obj, Object())
If row(0) IsNot Nothing Then
StartDate = CType(row(0), DateTime)
Else
StartDate = SqlDateTime.Null
End If
If row(0) IsNot Nothing Then
EndDate = CType(row(1), DateTime)
Else
EndDate = SqlDateTime.Null
End If
Else
StartDate = SqlDateTime.Null
EndDate = SqlDateTime.Null
End If
Catch ex As Exception
Throw
End Try
End Sub
What I have to write in the GetDates' s catch block to avoid that the exception is thrown to the BEGIN CATCH END CATCH of the caller SP but inform anyway the caller??
My flow is build with in the beginning an sql command in an OLE DB source, this command I use to create an incremental update which works faster than an SCD task. Now when I debug the package runs but stops after a short time. One control flow with that sql statements rus perfectly but the other gives an error. The errors I get are:
- [OLE DB Source 1 [2946]] Error: The attempt to add a row to the Data Flow task buffer failed with error code 0xC0047020.
- [DTS.Pipeline] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PRIMEOUTPUTFAILED. The PrimeOutput method on component "OLE DB Source 1" (2946) returned error code 0xC02020C4. The component returned a failure code when the pipeline engine called PrimeOutput(). The meaning of the failure code is defined by the component, but the error is fatal and the pipeline stopped executing. There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure.
The dataflow task starts with that sql statement where afterwords I do a data conversion and then I store it in with an OLE DB destination in a table.
Now i don't know why one statement works while the other isn't working... Does anyone has an idea?
