Execute Package Task With SQL Server Location

Aug 1, 2007

Have written a SSIS package which in turn runs a couple of child packages via the Execute Package control flow task. All is fine if I use a Location of File System for the task. However when I deploy to production I'd like the main package and it's child packages to be under SQL Server.

I can set the Execute Package task location to SQL Server after copying my packages into a development SQL box and again it works. However as it's now executing the package from SQL rather than wihin BIDS it doesn't give me the debugging/flow information for the Child package when I run the parent package. It's also a bit of a pain because even though all the packages are part of the same solution if I make a change to a child package I've got to remember to re-save a copy of it to the SQL database.

Have looked into seeing if I can make the location field for the Execute package task configurable so that I could run as a File System package within BIDS but as a SQL package in production but the Location field doesn't seem to be exposed as a property for the Execute Package task so can't set this as an expression or from a configuration.

Does anyone have any advice on using the Executing package task for child packages which are stored in SQL.

Newbie Question - How Do I Specify A Variable For The File Location When Using The Execute Package Task

Dec 12, 2005

There are two options to specify the subpackage location (SQL Server or file location). I'd like to know how I can specify a variable name that points to the file location so I avoid hard coding the file location which could change during production installation.

Execute Package Task Failed When Deployed To Server..

Feb 11, 2007

Hi,

I have a package that contains an Execute Package Task... it works fine when on my local machine and on our test-server.
After deploying the SSIS solution to our customers server, I open the project in Visual Studio and run the mainPackage in debug mode and the Task fails when trying to execute the package.. if I remove everything in the childpackage it still fails... the path to the package is correct and I know that I have rigths to execut it. I do not use any package security/encryption..
If i create a new package in the project and create a new fileconnection to it the Execute Package Task executes correctly, with the exact same content as the original package...

So my guess is that something in the FileConnetion object is set wrong, but i cannot understand what it is. The errormessage i get is something like this. "Execute Package Failed. Could not execute package".

Anyone had the same problem as I? I�m grateful for any help!

Looking For A Way To Refer To A Package Variable Within Any Transact-SQL Code Included In Execute SQL Or Execute T-SQL Task

Apr 19, 2007

I'm looking for a way to refer to a package variable within any
Transact-SQL code included in either an Execute SQL or Execute T-SQL
task. If this can be done, I need to know the technique to use -
whether it's something similar to a parameter placeholder question
mark or something else.

FYI - I've been able to successfully execute Transact-SQL statements
within the Execute SQL task, so I don't think the Execute T-SQL task
is even necessary for this purpose.

Running A Ssis Package In Sql Server Agent With Execute Process Task

Apr 1, 2008

Hello

I'm trying to run a task that executes a script file (cmd). When i run it with in bids with my own users (domain admin) it works. When i start a cmd prompt and try to run the cmd file directly from the network location where it is it works (with my own rights and with the sql server agent user).

Now when i try to run in from smss > agent jobs > job and run job it never completes. Im not getting any error message either it just keeps on running on the step ??? It seems like a rights issue, but the account running the sql server agent is able to execute the cmd file directly from the command prompt.

There are no errors in any error logs anywhere and no error is displayed...

Ps. Im running the job step as a integration service pacgake.

Execute DTS 2000 Package Task. Mischievous Task??

Sep 21, 2006

Hi everyone,

For first time I'm testing this task and surprisingly, when I try "Edit Package" option:

1)The DTS host failed to load or save the package properly
2)The selected package cannot be opened
3)Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component

But after these messages you can see all the tasks but they haven't name!!

It seem as if RCW mechanism has failed between managed and unmanaged coded-partially.

I don't dare to follow doing more stuff, I don't know if that package is well-loaded or not from there. ?�

Any guidance or idea about this?

Execute Package Task: Error 0x80070005 While Preparing To Load The Package. Access Is Denied.

Jun 8, 2007

I am having problems executing a child package from a parent package using the Execute Package Task. I am attempting to run the master package through a SQL Server Agent job.

The SQL Server Agent job is owned by sa. The step that runs the parent package is configured to load the package from the SSIS Package Store on the same server that the job is running.

I have the Execute Package Task configured as follows:

Location: SQL Server
ExecuteOutOfProcess: True
Connecting as a SQL Server login (let's say TestEtl)

I have added the db_dtsoperator database role to both the TestEtl login and the login that SQL Server Agent connects through. I have also configured the child package's reader role to include db_dtsoperator. Per http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-US/library/ms141053.aspx, this should allow these logins to run the child package.

I have enabled logging of all events in both the parent and child packages. I see the following in the logs when the Execute Package Task executes (omitted portions unrelated to the execution of the child package task):

450939 OnPreExecute ChildPackage 2007-06-08 13:35:17.000 2007-06-08 13:35:17.000 450940 OnPreValidate ChildPackage 2007-06-08 13:35:17.000 2007-06-08 13:35:17.000 450941 OnPostValidate ChildPackage 2007-06-08 13:35:17.000 2007-06-08 13:35:17.000 450942 User: Diagnostic ETL 2007-06-08 13:35:17.000 2007-06-08 13:35:17.000 ExternalRequest_pre: The object is ready to make the following external request: 'IDataInitialize::GetDataSource'.450943 User: Diagnostic ETL 2007-06-08 13:35:17.000 2007-06-08 13:35:17.000 ExternalRequest_post: 'IDataInitialize::GetDataSource succeeded'.

Execute Package Task

Mar 16, 2007

I am using many Execute Package Tasks in a DTS packages to call a number of other DTS packages. The problem is that when I change one of the called DTS packages the execute package task does not run the updated packages. It looks like the execute package task references a Package ID guid instead of the name. Is there a way to make it so a change to a called DTS package will reflect in all references to it

Execute Package Task

Jul 21, 2007

I am missing something simple that's killing me.

I am trying to execute a child ssis package using the execute package task. I add execute package task to the parent package and in the package task editor, under the package options I choose: filesystem for location, I choose new connection and create a connection to the package on the filesystem I want to execute, packagenamereadonly is blank. I execute the parent package and get an error that I did not specify the name of the package in the execute package task object. Now, since I can't populate the package name, as that option is readonly, I am not sure how to remove my headache. Anyone see what I'm doing wrong? None of these packages have security.

DTS - Execute Package Task Problem

Apr 21, 2006

I have five DTS packages on a server.

Instead of executing these DTS packages individually, I have decided to create a 'parent' DTS package that will fire off each of the five 'child' DTS packages using 'On Success' precedences.

This seemed like a pretty straight forward task, but when one of the child DTS packages fails, the 'parent' DTS package continues to execute the next 'child' DTS package through the 'On Success' precedence. I was expecting the 'parent' DTS to fire off an 'on failure' precendence and stop executing

Can anyone tell me why the 'parent' DTS package continues with the 'on success' precedence after one of the 'child' DTS packages has failed.

Thanks in advance.

Execute Package Task Behavior

Jan 20, 2006

I��m using a For Loop container to with an Execute Package Task inside, looping until a folder is empty. I��ve noticed some strange behaviors:

1. The child package keeps creating new connections. I start with 3 connections to the DB and when the For Loop container is done I��ve got 364 connections.
2. The Execute Package Task is pulling the wrong version of the package I��ve specified. I��m using a package saved to the File System and there��s only one copy on the drive. I��ve verified the path is going to the correct location.

Does anyone have a work-around for the ��connection generation�� issue?

Execute Package Task Fails

I have added a package from SQL Server to another package as an "Execute Package Task" it fails with this error:

Execute Package Task Error With UNC

Mar 3, 2008

Hi All,
I have strange problem. I have a package task that is setup to run a package from a file source. The package ran fine originally but VS placed a shared drive letter for the path. I went back to change it to a UNC path and now the package fails and gives an error saying the connection is not valid and that it failed validation. Going back into the connection manager to check the path and it looks good, even pressing the Browse button shows the correct directory.

What am I doing wrong?

Mission: Execute Package Task Successfully!!!

Oct 21, 2002

Currently, I'm developing an ETL program using Microsoft DTS on SQL Server 2000.

I've completed unit testing & component testing for all inner packages containing various types of executions - SQL task, ActiveX Script task, Error Handler, Transform Data task, Data Driven Query & Dynamic Properties task.

When unit & component tested, all inner package properties-"Limit the maximum number of tasks executed in parallel" is defaulted to 4.

However, the integration testing is failing because I've yet to successfully execute any of the Package tasks in the outer package, which runs & controls all inner packages from the outer package.

The error message encountered was:
---------------------------------------------------------------
| Error source: microsoft dts |
| Error description: execution was cancelled by another user. |
---------------------------------------------------------------

Please explain what might be the cause to this problem when I'm executing the outer package?

DTS Package: Execute Process Task && Parameters

Jul 27, 2004

Hello,

I have several DTS packages that take data from SQL Server and exports them onto an Access DB located on the network. Basically, one Execute Process Task from within my DTS package takes the Access DB and zips it while another such task copies the zipped DB and pastes it onto another location on the network. All this works fine.

This export process happens once a month so each month I have to manually add a datestamp to the end of the Access DB file that�s being exported to distinguish it from prior month's export. For example, this month's export file would have AccessDB_20040727.mdb name and the next month it would be AccessDB_20040820.mdb (date is determined based on the date the output is exported on). AccessDB.mdb is the default name of the export DB and datestamp is added at the end of the file name depending on what date the export was run. As I said, I can do this manually each month and it works fine.

I want to, however, know if there is a way to automatically supply the datestamp to the Execute Process Task's Parameters' text box? Following is what I have right now in the Parameters box:
\ghf1-ndc8-sqll$productionoutputlob200406LOB_CF_forDril ldown_All_20040727.zip \ghf1-ndc8-sqll$productionoutputlob200406LOB_CF_forDril ldown_All.mdb

I want to take above text from the parameters box and replace it with something like:
\ghf1-ndc8-sqll$productionoutputlob200406FileName_RunDa te.zip \ghf1-ndc8-sqll$productionoutputlob200406LOB_CF_forDril ldown_All.mdb

Where FileName_RunDate is a variable/placeholder for the name of the output with the datestamp the output is exported on.

There are three different Execute Process Tasks that are happening within each of my DTS packages so it's a time consuming job to have to manually add a datestamp to each package every month when data is exported.

Does anyone know if what I am asking is doable? If I can use a variable in the parameters box of each Execute Process Task�s properties and supply current datestamp values to it prior to executing the package each month? If so then what are the ways? How would I do that?

Thanks much.

DTS Execute Package Task Step Precedence Bug

Jun 18, 2002

This is a bug that I submitted to Microsoft. I wanted to see if anyone could assist me with a work-around.

1. Create a new DTS Package
2. Add an ActiveX Task and change 'Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success' to 'Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Failure'.
3. Running this package will result in a Failed package.
4. Save Package as 'Failure' to local server

5. Create another new DTS Package.
6. Add an 'Execute Package' task, and configure the properties to have it launch the saved 'Failure' child package.
7. Add an ActiveX task and then click ok to close it.
8. Select the Execute Package task (which executes the failure package), hold control and click the ActiveX task. Add an 'On Success' Precendence constraint from the 'Workflow' menu.

9. Now execute the package. Notice that the ActiveX task will execute even though the Execute Package task FAILED.

10. If you change the Precendence constraint from 'On Success' to 'On Failure' the ActiveX task will not run, because the package thinks that the Execute Package task completed with success.

In summary... if a child package, executed by an Execute Package task fails, the Execute Package Task ALWAYS "reports" success to the following precedence constraint and the package continues to run. Even if 'Fail Package on first error' is enabled. Although you will see that the task actually failed while watching the status of the package execution.

I am currently trying to write vbscript in an ActiveX task that will follow an Execute Package Task. I am trying to make the vbscript check and see if the previous task really did succeed or fail, and then make the ActiveX task succeed or fail as required to make the precedence constraints work properly.

I have replicated this problem on many different machines.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any ideas for my ActiveX task? I am trying to access the StepExecutionResult from the Execute Package task, and I have been unable to. If I can get the Step Execution reult, then I can in turn cause the ActiveX task to suceed or fail, based on the execution result of the Execute Package task.

Thank you for your time,

Execute Package Task In A Loop Works, But...

May 3, 2007

Okay, can someone explain why when I execute children packages within a loop that only a couple of them work?

When I first started this I had Child Package 1 and Child Packge 2 working from the Parent Package 1. It would loop through twice (I had 2 organizations in my outer loop) and pass in the Parent Package variables correctly.

I am using a simple "Foreach Item Enumerator" with a collection of string enumerators that are the Names of the children packages - these are assigned to a variable that is scoped to the outer loop.

Now, when I add a new Child Package 3 and set it up the same as the other 2, when it goes to execute Child Package 3 it fails with the error:

"Error: The connection manager "[My Package Name].dtsx" is not found. A component failed to find the connection manager in the Connections collection. "

What in the world have I done? I was under the assumption that since the first 2 packages worked, that any other packages I added would work the same.

Execute Package Task And Configuration Files

Nov 25, 2006

Hi all

For selecting different load targets we use package configurations to override the connection parameters in the connection manager.
To organize the different tasks we splittetd our load processes into multiple package files (dtsx) which are then put together into a workflow using "Execute Package Task" component.
With the option /CONFIGFILE its possible to override the configuration file for the package that is called with DTExec. Unfortuanetly it does not override the configuration of subpackages calles by the "Execute Package Task".
Are there some ways to configure subpackages on the command line?

Using Package Variables As Parameters In Execute Sql Task

Feb 23, 2006

Hi,

I need to run an SQL command, in which one of the fields is based on the current time, represented as a string in a specific format.

I used a script task to create the string from the current time, and store it in a package variable named "newDate". Later, in the execute sql task, I have the following update statement: "update table_1 set field_1 = ?" (OLE DB connection is used)

and in the parameters mapping I set parameter 0 to the string package variable "newDate".

The problem is that on runtime, the sql executes with the default value of the variable - i.e. it doesn't take the new value.

I checked it and placed another script task after the first one, that simply tries to read the variable "newDate" and print it to screen, but even here the default value is used.

how can I use the new value of the variable?

thanks.

Support For Execute DTS 2000 Package Task On Win 64 AMD?

I have imported a series of SQL 2000 DTS packages to our 64bit AMD SQL 2005 server. I then created SSIS pkgs to run each SQL 2000 package using the Execute DTS 2000 package task. Then I deployed these packages to the Yukon server as well.

I can run these packages when launching them via Integration Services from Management Studio on my workstation, but when I try to run them via a SQL Job or the DTExec command on the server, I get this error. Anyone know of a workaround?

Package Variables Passed To Execute SQL Task

Aug 14, 2007

Hi,

I am having trouble getting the Execute SQL Task to recognize the package-level variables in an SSIS package. The tasks fail execution. The package contains three Execute SQL tasks and none of them receive the variables. However, when I replace the '?' in the code with the variable values they execute fine. These are the steps I have taken thus far:

Made sure the three variables are package level.
Verified I'm using an OLE DB valid connection.
Verified the variables are properly mapped in the parameters mapping section of the task properties.
Tried all 4 types of variable to parameter mapping (even though '?' in the query and '0,1,2..' in the name should work).
Changed the Bypassprepare property to 'True'.
Breakpoints and watch windows to verify the variable values.

I actually tried the simple tutorials on a one-liner SQL statement that uses variables, but had the same problem. I know there must be something simple that I'm missing here, but any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
