Excel Connection Manager Fails When Package Called Programatically
Jan 25, 2008
I've put together a SSIS package that, once a user uploads an Excel spreadsheet from a webpage, grabs it, does a mess of calculations and spits it out into a datareader (this last part is tricky, but I haven't even gotten to this point yet). In BIDS, the package works fine. Run using the 32-bit version of dtexec, it runs fine. But when I try to call it from the page, I keep getting an error. The errors look familiar enough that I'm thinking it's due to the package trying to run 64-bit, and that not playing nicely with Excel. If that's true, is there an easy way to force the 32-but version to be used? I've already set the project properties to Run64BitRuntime = false, which I'd hoped would help. but no luck.
Here's the code I'm using:
Code Snippet
string pkg = @"pathpackage.dtsx";
Application app = new Application();
Package p = app.LoadPackage(p, null);
Variable varFileName = p.Variables["strExcelFileName"];
varFileName.Vaue = strFileName;
Variable varFilePath = p.Variables["strExcelFilePath"];
varFilePath.Value = strFilePath;
DTSExecResult dte = p.Execute();
Error handling
p.Dispose();
And it kicks out the following:

I have a SSIS package that reads the data from an Excel file using an Excel Connection Manager and imports the data to a table on a SQL Server 2005 DB instance.
When I run this package locally on the server the package being on the file system, the package executes perfectly. Now I upload the package to the msdb database and the run the package from there and the package still executes successfully.
Now I schedule the package to run as a SQL Server Agent job and the package fails and when the logging is enabled I see this in the log file;
OnError,WEB-INTSQL,NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM,Copy to CRN-ALLOCATION_COMMENTS_TEMP,{40A6BF6E-7121-448B-A49D-DED58FDC746A},{BD991566-F4BD-41BC-AEBF-264032D8D0D3},5/9/2006 1:54:52 PM,5/9/2006 1:54:52 PM,-1071611876,0x,The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "Excel Connection Manager" failed with error code 0xC0202009.

I am wondering why the AcquireConnection method call is failing when the package is scheduled? I am running the step as a SQL Agent Service Account and it is the Local System account that starts up the SQL Server Agent and Server and is an Administrator on the box.
Any inputs will be much appreciated.
Thanks,

Hello,
I've SQL Server running on 64 bit. When I schedule a package to run every night which has excel data transformation, it fails. Initally I had a problem running through BIDS also but then I found in project properties you can switch this off by specifying property Run64BitRuntime by false. After going through some forums, many have suggested that when scheduling a package, modify the command arguments to run as 32bit runtime. These command argumnents can be generated from making use of tool DTExecUI.exe Even after using generated command arguments from this tool, it doesn't help.
Below is my command argument and the error message generated.

Hi Everyone:
Is it possible to create a package through the SQL Server Business Intelligence Studio, and then execute that package through an Excel file (by calling the package through VBA?).
I need some advice on the ways I can execute the package other than via command line utilities. Can you use Visual Basic 6.0? .NET?
Please advise,
Jason

Hi,
I am working on SQL Server 2005 (x64) with Windows Server 2003 (x64) operating system. I am having a major issue in SSIS. Here is the detailed explanation of the issue :
I have an EXCEL file in 2003 / 2007 version. It contains some data. I want to import the data using SSIS into SQL Server 2005 (x64) database table. I have taken "EXCEL FILE SOURCE" and "SQL Server DESTINATION". It was failed on importing data. Surprisingly it works fine in SQL Server 2005 (x32). Can you please explain why it is NOT woking on (x64) ?
Here is the error code i am getting:

Hello,
I have a question regarding which expressions need to be set to have the excel connection manager be able to create/update a file dynamically. I'm reading a path in from a database and storing it in a variable. The path is just the location of an excel file. What I would like to have happen is that the excel connection manager be dynamic so that if I wanted to change where this file went or the name I could simply change the value in the database.
I've tried setting the expressions, in the Excel connection Manager: ConnectionString,ExcelFilePath, and Servername to the variable \pathfolderfile.xls with no luck. The ConnectionString seems to be a little funny because it contains Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data source = ; Extended Properties =; HDR=YES", so I don't know if I can just use that expression and ignore the others or what.
Any help would appreciated,
Phil

So from the message I'm assuming that somewhere in the package configuration its missing the path to be able to find the Excel spreadsheet in question. But when opening up the package configuration I can't see anything immediately wrong. For the path of the spreadsheet location I've used the full UNC path instead of any mapped drive locations I've being guilty of using in the past. Below is the Excel Connection Manager section of my configuration file:
<Configuration ConfiguredType="Property" Path="Package.Connections[Excel Connection Manager].Properties[ConnectionString]" ValueType="String">

</Configuration>
<Configuration ConfiguredType="Property" Path="Package.Connections[Excel Connection Manager].Properties[UserName]" ValueType="String">
<ConfiguredValue>
</ConfiguredValue>
I've checked the rest of the configuration file and wherever something needs a username and password, they are entered correctly. I've also made sure that the account I'm logged onto our server and running the package under can access the excel file in question with no issues.
What is abit strange is that I have another package that runs in a similar way and also uses an Excel Connection Manager but from a different folder in the same area and that runs fine. I've tried to compare the 2 sets of connection managers to see if I can spot the difference but I've been unable to so far. Al that I can see that is different is the folder winningproject somtimes being in lowercase and then sometimes having capitals, but that doesn't seem to make any difference.
I'm hoping a fresh pair of eyes will be able to spot something obvious that I've missed!! Below is the Excel Connection Manager section of the configuration file I have that works fine.:
<Configuration ConfiguredType="Property" Path="Package.Connections[Excel Connection Manager].Properties[ConnectionString]" ValueType="String">

Hi,
I can use Http connection to Analysis Services 2005 from Excel but when I try to use IIS it fails.
AS and IIS are on different machines and not in the same domain.
In the event log of the server with AS i can see following event:
Event Type: Information
Event Source: MSOLAP ISAPI Extension: \?C:Inetpubwwwrootolapmsmdpump.dll
Event Category: (269)
Event ID: 10
Date: 5/20/2008
Time: 10:17:02 AM
User: N/A
Computer: *******
Description:
The description for Event ID ( 10 ) in Source ( MSOLAP ISAPI Extension: \?C:Inetpubwwwrootolapmsmdpump.dll ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: .
I assume it's permission issue. Excel and IIS must be using different user to connect to AS. I tried with different authentication methods on the iis but without success.
How can I make IIS connect with proper permissions?

I have a package that uses a for loop to iterate through an unknown amount of excel files and pull their data into a table. However, there will be cases when the file is corrupted or has some sort of problem so that either the transformation will fail or the excel source will fail.
I have it so that for each iteration if the transform was successful the file is moved to an archive directory, and if it fails the file is moved to a different directory.
But I don't want the package to be marked as failed. For the control flow tasks I have set the individual components to FailPackageonFailure = False, and for the Data Flow tasks I have set ValidateExternalMetadata = False.
It no use to set the MaxErrorCount higher because I can't guarantee how many files will be processed and how many might fail.
Could anyone suggest a clean way to trap these errors? Specifically, the "Cannot Aquire Connection from Connection Manager", which is the excel connection.
Thanks

Hi There
I am having some issues with dts packages i have migrated using the package migration wizard.
One of the connection managers points to an execl flat file source.
I have not altered anything after the package migration, the conenction manager is using Native OLE DBMicrosoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider.
When i test the connection i get the following error :
"Test connection failed becuase of an error in initializing provider. Cannot start your application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by anotehr user."
Ok i am 99% sure this file is not being accessed by another user, the rest of the error is greek to me. Looking on the net for this error it has to do with access database security and having to sertup htm pages for IIS, i cannot findanything on this error relating to ssis connection manager.
PLEASE HELP.
Thanx

Hi,
I'm trying to write a package that imports a bunch of Excel files into a sql server table. My import routine works fine when I do not use a foreach loop container. I then add a Foreach Loop Container with a Foreach File Enumerator and create a variable to store all of the excel file names to use with my excel connection manager in the connection string property.
When I run the debugger I get the following error:
TITLE: Package Validation Error
------------------------------
Package Validation Error

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Error at Import New Data [My Data (Excel) [4234]]: The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "Excel Connection Manager" failed with error code 0xC0202009.

(Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.VsIntegration)
I've read the varous posts on this forum and others with people having this problem and nothing that was recommended to them works for me. I've also read the Msdn article 'How to:Loop through Excel files and Tables' and followed the directions there without success. I've tried the following with no success:
I've tried to create first a hard coded connection string in the excel conn. manager which works but as soon as I set the experessions: connection string property = my file enumerator variable it breaks.
Turned the Delay Validation to True for the package as well as the task
Set the Connection string equal to not just the variable coming from the file enumerator but to the full connection string : "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + @[User::excel_filename] + ";Extended Properties="Excel 8.0;HDR=YES";"
I've also tried to set the excel filepath property instead of the connection string and this didn't work either.
I'm getting really frustrated. Any advice on why something so simple doesn't work for me would be appreciated.
Thanks

The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "FeedFile Excel Connection Manager" failed with error code 0xC0202009.
3. When I invoke the failed Packages again then they succeed.
So, do you know if there is:-
(a) a concurrency issue with the "FeedFile Excel Connection Manager" ?
(b) a read-only option (in the SSIS Package code) which needs to be specified to overcome file contention issues?
Additional Information about the FeedFile Excel Connection Manager:-
Connection String=Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:DoesNotNeedToExist.xls;Extended Properties="EXCEL 8.0;HDR=NO";
DelayValidation=True
ExcelFilePath= C:DoesNotNeedToExist
RetainSameConnection=False
Note1. The actual Excel filename which is read is generated dynamically at run-time by a Script Task. This is why DelayValidation has been set to: True (Note. The file: "C:DoesNotNeedToExist" does not actually physically exist.)
Note2. We have another SSIS Package which uses the FeedFile FlatFile Connection Manager. When we run this same Package concurrently (i.e. invoke it 5 times, at the same time, with different input files) then all 5 invocations succeed, which is what we would expect.
Thanks.

I have a task that uses an Excel connection manager to read in an Excel file. In the file there are 6 date columns. The date columns can have either a date or the letters NA. If I look at the External Column properties from the advanced tab, 4 of the date columns have a datatype of DT_DATE. The other 2 date columns have a datatype of DT_WSTR. The 4 columns with DT_DATE, my data looks okay as when it is read by the connection manager. The issue is that the 2 columns that are DT_WSTR, all dates are turned into NULLS, while the NA's are just fine. I have tried to change the datatypes in the advanced tab to DT_DATE, but it won't work.
I don't have any idea what to do to get this working correctly. Can anyone PLEASE provide some insight and suggestions or a solution?

I do not know the Excel file name to load in design time.
Would like to pass the value to a variable in the package in run time?
How to do this?
Thanks,

I have excel files where the column headers I care about are on line 5, and the actual data doesn't begin until line 6. Other than deleting the first 4 lines, which is impractical, how can I get the Excel Connection Manager to import the data correctly? I was able to do this under DTS, so I have to imagine it's possible.
Thanks!

Purpose: Need to import excel source data into SQL Server 2005 tables. Excel source data comes in nulitple excel files with the same structure but different data. I would appreciate someone taking a look at the following information and notifying me of what I am doing incorrectly.
I Inserted a foreach loop container, a data flow task located inside the foreach loop contaiiner, an excel and SQL Server 2005 connections.
After trying multiple times I went the following URL and followed step by step direction on how to connect excel workbooks dynamically: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345182.aspx . I also used http://www.sqlstrings.com/ as a reference when creating the connection string.
Creating a Foreach Loop Container:
1. Opened foreach loop container 2.Set the Enumerator to 'Foreach File Enumerator" and configured the enumerator by setting the directory location and file base name to E:ClientsDep CommBEABEA_Test_Source and *PersonnelExpense*.xls respectively. 3. Clicked Variable Mapping; created two variables called, "ExcelFile", and "ExtProperties" and closed out of the foreach loop container.
I. Created Excel Connection:
Created excel connection called, €śDynamic Excel Connection Manager,€? that initially pointed to one of the excel workbooks.
Went to the connection properties by right clicking the connection manager.
Expanded Expressions and clicked the ellipsis button to bring up property expressions
Chose Connection String in the Property.
Clicked the Expression Ellipsis button.
Put the following inside the Expression multi line text box:
A. "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + @[User::ExcelFile] + ";Extended Properties="" + @[User::ExtProperties] + """
Clicked the Evaluate Expression button to get the following:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=;Extended Properties=""
Clicked Ok button
Inserted a Data flow task inside the foreach loop container.
II. Configured Tasks that is associated with Dynamic Excel Connection Manager or Package:
Set the Foreach loop container Delay Validation to true.
Set the Data Flow Task Container Delay Validation to true.
Set the Dynamic Excel Connection Manager Delay Validation to true.
Set the SQL Server Connection Manager Delay Validation to true.
Set the Package Delay Validation to true.
Package Locale ID set to English
Ran the package after connecting the excel source data flow to the OLEDB destination and have inserted part of the error in this post. Please see below.
Error: 0xC0202009 at Package, Connection manager "Dynamic Excel Connection Manager": An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Could not find installable ISAM.".
I modified the connection string after receiving the error by removing the extended properties. The following is the modified connection string: "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + @[User::ExcelFile]
I repeated step I.6 above and received the following expression: Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=
I ran the package and received the following error in part: OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Unrecognized database format 'E:ClientsDep CommBEABEA_Test_SourcePersonnelExpense_OCCs_051007.xls'."
I did not find anything helpful when I searched for the above errors and would very much appreciate anyone€™s assistance on this issue as this issue needs to be taken care of ASAP.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why I received this error and what can I do to resolve this issue?
Your assistance in this matter is truly appreicated!
Thanks!!

Hi,
I have a data flow task within a foreach file loop. My problem occurs when I tried to make up an expression for the connection string of the Excel connection manager. Somehow I can see only system variables and none of the variables which I set up within the scope of the foreach file loop.
Can anyone provide me any insight into this mystery? As far as I can see, all the variables I created in the foreach file loop are still showing on the variable windows (without the Show All Variable button clicked).
Thank you very much and hope to hear from someone soon!
Regards,
Hsiao

create a package with a connection manager
reference the manager with a bunch of tasks
change the name of the manager
stand back in disbelief as you receive the following message
Error: 0xC004800B at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: Cannot find the connection manager with ID "SourceConnectionExcel" in the connection manager collection due to error code 0xC0010009. That connection manager is needed by "runtime connection "OleDbConnection" (8)" in the connection manager collection of "component "Source - 'DCD MANUAL$'" (1)". Verify that a connection manager in the connection manager collection, Connections, has been created with that ID.

I need to process a 2012 Excel file. In SSIS Connection Manager, I am only given an option until Excel 2007 version. When I use this in my connection for Excel Source, I am prompted with this error when I attempt to select the name of the sheet:
"Could not retrieve the table information for the connection manager 'Excel Connection Manager'.
Failed to connect to the source using the connection manager 'Excel Connection Manager'"
Also my Run64BitRuntime is set to false.

I am in the process of importing an Excel Spreadsheet using the natively connection manager in SSIS 2008. Â There is one column however that is causing me grief.
SSIS has natively chosen the problematic column to be a DT_WSTR(255). Â I have gone into the Excel connection manager's Advanced Editor and altered it to be a DT_WSTR(1000) (see image 1 attached).
I am still getting truncation issues though, as per image 2 attached. Â why this is?

I have a SSIS package which reads an excel file and loads data into a table using script component(C#) as a source. The package runs without any errors when I manually run it on my machine and on the server. But the package fails when run as a SQL Server Agent job.
I tried all the possible fixes I found on the web but still can't get it to work.

Hallo,
I'm currently strugling with the setup of our packages for deployment to a new environment.
We are working with a master/detail package setup. One master package is created that will call all child packages. In the master package we don't have any connection towards our source and/or target databases/sourcesystems.
Everything works fine, however, starting to deploy the whole set of packages, it seems that we don't have the option to set specific properties of our detailed packages, e.g. connection properties. But this is just what we need.
When we are adding a job in the Job Agent for our master package to be scheduled, we want to be able to set all different connection manager properties, not only the one from the master package and definitely the ones from the detailed packages as there we switch the connections from the development environment towards the acceptance environment.
I tried to fix this with parent package variables, but I can't set the password property, only the ServerName and UserName can be set, not the Password.
Anyone an idea what the easiest and best approach is to solve this burden?
Thx

I originally developed SSIS packages with the destination DB to be SQL Server 2005 for unit testing on my desktop. We are planning on deploying to Oracle. After changing the Provider and other attributes in the configuration file the package loads, however there are lots of issues. The primary one is that the mappings are gone. I'm not sure if that is the result of how the table names are stored "Oracle"."File" versus [SQLSERVER].[File] . Even after attempting to change the way the table names appear I still get the message "the external metadata column is out of sync with the data source columns". Then it lists all of the columns that need to be added.
Is there any way to accomplish this that you are aware of.
Thanks

I enabled logging by right clicking on the control flow and specifying a log provider.
after a while, i deleted the log provider from the tree view and the connection manager it was using from the connection manager collection.
now i cannot open the package.
here are the errors i can collect from the failure;
Error 1 Error loading ImportMedsSubmissionFiles.dtsx: Element "{A4F838A2-2660-4422-A0D2-669BAFBC6CAE}" does not exist in collection "LogProviders". Visual Studio 2005ProjectsMeds2ImportMeds2ImportImportMedsSubmissionFiles.dtsx 1 1

Visual Studio 2005ProjectsMeds2ImportMeds2ImportImportMedsSubmissionFiles.dtsx 1 1
Error 4 Error loading 'ImportMedsSubmissionFiles.dtsx' : The package failed to load due to error 0xC0010014 "One or more error occurred. There should be more specific errors preceding this one that explains the details of the errors. This message is used as a return value from functions that encounter errors.". This occurs when CPackage::LoadFromXML fails. . Visual Studio 2005ProjectsMeds2ImportMeds2ImportImportMedsSubmissionFiles.dtsx 1 1
is there some file to edit or a way recreate or revive the package, even if it means just duping the package into believeing what it wants is there?
as a baseline altertnative, is there any way to retrieve the work?
it consists of a boatload of derived column transformations of way too many columns that i would really rather not rewrite, so if its lying about on my drive somewhere in an xml file that can be used to recreate what i had, it would be just ducky.
thanks

Hi all,
Any idea about how to configure/read multiple worksheets from a spreadsheet using single connection manager?
I think using SQL Command we could able to do - not sure how to achieve that. Let me know the other alternatives too.
Thank you for any help

Hi All,
I have a Stored Procedure, which has a RAISERROR statement with LOG. I am calling this SP from a Job. Whenever the RAISERROR is executed, it also fails the job.. How should this be handled? The article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/309802 says that this has been fixed in SP4, but I am working on SQL Server 2000 SP4, but still it persists here. Can anyone please help me resolve issue? Can this be handled in Code? Or, Is it confirmed that even SP4 has not fixed this? Or is this a known issue and we need to live with it?
Thanks a lot,
Manoj Deshpande.

This is a very weird problem. SQL 2000. A bcp calls an SP:
bcp "exec MyDB.dbo.usp_DF_NA_Analytics_OOW" queryout SomeFile.dat -T -c -t "|" -S "MySvrMyInst"
SP code:
----------------------------
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.usp_DF_NA_Analytics_OOW AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON
--Declare Variables
DECLARE @CURRENTDATE DATETIME
DECLARE @BEGINTIME DATETIME
declare @feedname varchar(50)
set @feedname = 'DF_NA_Analytics_OOW'
SET @CURRENTDATE = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
-- ensure there is a row for us - create 1 if it doesn't exist
exec usp_datafeed_timestamp_init @feedname
SET @BEGINTIME = (
SELECT LastRunTime
FROM NewAccounts.dbo.DataFeed_Timestamp
WHERE TaskName = @feedname
)
select oowReason.OOWTransaction_id,
oowReason.Position,
oowReason.ReasonCode,
oowTx.UpdateDateTime
from OOWTransaction oowTx (nolock)
join OOWReason oowReason (nolock)
on oowReason.OOWTransaction_id = oowTx.OOWTransaction_id
WHERE oowTx.UpdateDateTime >= @BEGINTIME and oowTx.UpdateDateTime < @CURRENTDATE
ORDER BY oowReason.OOWTransaction_id, Position
-- update the timestamp
exec usp_UPD @feedname, @currentdate
end
------------------------------
ALTER procedure dbo.usp_UPD (@feedname varchar(50), @lastruntime datetime)
as
begin
set nocount on
if not exists (select * from dbo.datafeed_timestamp where lower(taskname) = lower(@feedname))
INSERT INTO Datafeed_Timestamp(TaskName, LastRunTime) VALUES(@feedname, @lastruntime )
else
update Datafeed_Timestamp
set LastRunTime = @lastruntime
where TaskName = @feedname
end
----------------------------------------
The above bcp fails consistently unless the "exec usp_UPD" is completely removed.
Even if I substitute it with the update stmt instead of the SP call, it still fails.
I move the usp_UPD call and move it above the select making the select as the last command in the SP -- still fails.
Removed Order by -- still fails.
The weird thing is -- several other SPs that follow the same exact format (only select query is different) - they all succeed everytime.
This above bcp fails everytime unless the usp_UPD is fully removed.
I have tried putting the result dataset into a table variable and select it in the end -- still fails. several other attempt to workaround - fails -- by fails I mean "0 rows returned" from bcp -- when the UPD is removed, it returns the correct dataset. Otherwise always returns 0 rows.
Outside bcp, if I simply execute the SP from QA, it returns the correct dataset everytime. From bcp, it just doesn't like it. It returns 0 rows everytime, but does the UPD task -- the value does get updated adter execution.
Any thoughts/ideas? This thing is driving me NUTS
Thanks,
Rajesh
