I have a stored procedure that returns XML and have defined my own "Root" element w/ "ROOT('urlset')" in the stored procedure. When I put this into my Control Flow, I have a subsequent task that takes this XML stream and writes it to a file. The issue I am running into is that SSIS is adding it's own "Root" element before my output. Is there any way of avoiding this?
View 4 RepliesI have a SQL Task that calls a stored procedure and returns an output parameter. The task fails with error "Value does not fall within the expected range." The Stored Procedure is defined as follows: Create Procedure [dbo].[TestOutputParms] @InParm INT , @OutParm INT OUTPUT as Set @OutParm = @InParm + 5 The task uses an OLEDB connection and has a source type of Direct Input. The SQL Statement is Exec TestOutputParms 7, ? output The parameter mapping is: Variable Name Direction Data Type Parameter Name User::OutParm Output LONG @OutParm
View 7 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am trying to do the following without success;
I have a UDF which returns a string of XML data (of the data type XML)
I want to use this UDF within an Execute SQL Task to set a variable to the output of the UDF. I then want to use the variable to pass the XML string to a XML Task to apply an XSLT to the XML.
I have set the following properties in the Execute SQL Task:
ResultSet: XML
SQLSourceType: Direct Input
SQLStatement: SELECT [dbo].[fn_GENERATE_XML](123) as rawxml
ResultName: 0
Variable Name:user::xml (where the variable is of type string)
My problem is something to do with the UDF call as if I substitute the UDF for a simple SELECT statement with a FOR XML Clause it works fine.
Any ideas where I am going wrong?
Thanks
If ive got different pieces in a dataflow, how could I for example, see the output of a datasource before it gets to destination ? If im executing a task, what can i get access to from the immedate window to see the outputs at various stages ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm just starting to find my way around SSIS, coming from SQL 2000 DTS, but I can't see a way of including a Win32 Console application's output into the logging process.
I've started playing around with SSIS Logs (OnTaskFailed etc..), but I can find no where to allow me to capture the output from a console app. In SQL 2000 DTS I could capture this by specifying an "output file" on the advanced tab of the job step definition. Is there something as straight forward as this in SSIS ?
I'd be grateful for a few pointers in the right direction.
Hi all,
I'm trying to capture the OUTPUT from Execute Sql task...However when I run, the parameter didn't seem to capture the OUTPUT.
In my Sql Task, the parameter mapping:
Variable name: user::variable,
direction: OUTPUT,
Data Type: Varchar,
parameter name: 0,
parameter size: -1
connectiontype: OleDB
sourcetype: direct input
statement ELECT columnx FROM table1 WHERE (columnID=
(SELECT MAX(columnID) ASID
FROM table1 A)
I could be misunderstood on how Execute sql task work on Output.
thanks
I am building this as an expression, but it is not working. I am trying to return the row count into a variable to use later in an update statement. What am I doing wrong? I am using a single row result set. I have one variable defined in my result set. I am receiving an error stating: Execute SQL Task: There is an invalid number of result bindings returned for the ResultSetType: "ResultSetType_SingleRow". Any help is appreciated!
SELECT count(*) FROM hsi.itemdata a

I'm having a heckuva time with creating output parameters based on a query.
Here's what I'm doing. Every day, we copy rows from our mysql table to our sql server table. We only want to copy those rows that are new, so as to not have to recopy the entire table.
So I have a DataReader Source set to Ado.net/odbc provider that connects to the mysql db.
The destination is an OLE connection to the local sql server.
I create an Execute SQL Task.
The connection is set to the OLE connection
The type is direct input
The SQL Statement is "select max(id) from copy_table"
In Parameter Mapping, I create a user variable called maxId that is an int64. That variable is now used as the Variable Name. The Direction is Output. The Parameter Name is 0.
Whatever data type I use for the mapping does not work with the variable type. If the parameter was set to ULARGE_INTEGER, here's the error
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "SELECT MAX(stats_id) AS max_id FROM copy_table" failed with the following error: "Type name is invalid.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
If parameter is set to LONG:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "maxId": "The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::maxId" differs from the current variable type. Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object. ".
I found that if variable and parameter were dates to use datetime for the variable and DBTIMESTAMP for the parameter.
There are an awful lot of combinations between all the possible variable types, and the possible parameter types. Does anyone know the secret combination for your typical integer?
Thanks,
Lori
IS that possible to get teh output of a execute sql task to excel destination.I have query which will comapre the data difference between two databses. It will comapre all tables in both databses and list out the difference in data by each table. I need to run this query using SSIS and need to get the output to a excel sheet...I have used the data flow task to run this query but my query is giving some error when used with data flow task. So i have used excecute sql task and need to write teh out put to a excel sheet.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use "findstr.exe" to extract some lines of interest from a data file, which I will later load to a table. I'd like to issue this form of a command:
findstr.exe "^SEARCHSTRING" "srcfile" > "dstfile"
I build the arguments using expressions, and both the search string and source file get correctly set. However, the ">" seems to be ignored--I can see the lines spitting out to the temporary window when I run under VS.
QUESTION: how do you redirect the output of a command run under an Execute Process Task?
Hi Everyone,
I haven't been able to successfully use the ADO.NET connection type to use both input and output parameters in an execute sql task containing just tsql statements (no stored procedure calls). I have successfully used input parameters on their own but when i combine it with output parameters it fails on the simplest of tasks.
I would really find it beneficial if you could use the flexibility of an ADO.NET connection type as the parameter marker and parameter name can be referenced anywhere throughout the sql statement in no particular order. The addition of an output parameter would really make it great!!
Thanks
OK. I give up and need help. Hopefully it's something minor ...
I have a dataflow which returns email addresses to a recordset.
I pass this recordset into a ForEachLoop configuring the enumerator as (Foreach ADO Enumerator). I also map the email address as a variable with index 0.
I then have a Execute SQL task which receives this email address as a varchar variable (parameter 0) which I then use in my SQL command to limit the rows returned. I have commented out the where clause and returned all rows regardless of email address to try to troubleshoot this problem. In either event, I then use a resultset to store the query result of type object and result name 0.
I then pass this resultset into a script variable to start parsing the sql rows returned as type object. ( I assume this is the correct way to do this from other prior posts ...).
The script appears to throw an exception at the following line. I assume it's because I'm either not passing in the values properly or the query doesn't return anything. However, I am certain the query works as it executes just fine at the command prompt.
Try
ds = CType(Dts.Variables("VP_EMAIL_RESULTS_RS").Value, DataSet)
My intent is to email the query results to each email address with the following type of data by passing the parsed data from the script to a send mail task. Email works fine and sends out messages but the content is empty. I pass the parsed data as string values to the messagesource and define the messagesourcetype as a variable in the mail task.
part number leadtime

Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Dear all:
I had got the below error when I execute a DELETE SQL query in SSIS Execute SQL Task :
Error: 0xC002F210 at DelAFKO, Execute SQL Task: Executing the query "DELETE FROM [CQMS_SAP].[dbo].[AFKO]" failed with the following error: "The transaction log for database 'CQMS_SAP' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
But my disk has large as more than 6 GB space, and I query the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases which return value as "NOTHING".
So this confused me, any one has any experience on this?
Many thanks,

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.
I'm using SSIS in Visual Studio 2012. My Execute SQL Task calls a Stored Procedure where I have a TRY-CATCH. Last week there was a problem and the CATCH was executed and logged an error to my error table, but for some reason the Execute SQL Task didn't fail. Is there a setting to make the Execute SQL Task fail when an SP encounters a failure?

I am using SQL 2005 SSIS. I am joining several large tables and then the move result into another table in the same database.
I would like know which method is faster:
Use Execute SQL Task to insert the result set to the target table
Use the Data Flow Task to insert the result set to the target table. (Use OLE DB source to execute SQL command and then use the SQL destination)
Could you tell me why then other is slower?
Thanks.
In the Control flow tab, I have an Execute SQL Task that outputs full Result set into a variable of an object type. Now how can I write the contents of the Full Result Set into a text file using Script Task. I also want to format the following way while I output into a file:
Column Name 1 : Column Value
Column Name 2: Column Value and so on
I tried writing the contents of the Object Variable into a file, but the file had an output of single word: System.__ComObject.
Code for Writing the Full Result Set into a Text File
Dim RSsqloutput as String = Dts.Variables("objVariable").Value.ToString
Dim strVal as String = "File completed on " & Now() & vbCrLf & "------------------------------------------------------" & vbCrLf
oLogFile.WriteAllText("C:MyFile.txt", strValue)
oLogFile.WriteAllText("C:MyFile.txt", rsSQLOutput)
I went through this link that explains how to write XML Result Set into a File, But this doesn't help as it writes in XML format.
Would you please give me a hint of code how I can go upon.

I have a SSIS package contains an "Execute SQL Task". The SQL will raise error or succeed. However, it sounds the package won't pick up the raised error?
Or is it possible to conditional run other control flow items according the the status of SQL task execution?
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?
An Execute SQL task takes 1 min to run a statement "insert into Mytable select * from view_using_joins"
Output: 10,225 rows affected.
But a Dataflow task configured to fetch data from the same view_using_joins into MyTable takes hours to do the same.
Could you please explain why is it so ?
Thanks

I have a stored procedure where in a cursor I create a dynamic select
statement. If I have a non-zero result set (check @@rowcount) I output a message. The problem is I do not know how to supress the output of the
execute of the dynamically created select statement. All I want going to
output is the message. I know ISQL has this function, and so does EM. How do I do it totally within a stored procedure.
Hi guys. I have a procedure with just one parameter. That's a output parameter. It's type is NVARCHAR
I think there's no problem with the procedure. Now I want to execute it. Can I declare that variable passed by parameter to the procedure ? Must I use the Execute command ?
thanks a lot.
I am executing a stored proc with in the Execute SQL Task using OLEDB provider. I am passing the data as
ConnectionType: OLEDB
Connection : to my database
SQLSourceType: Direct
SQL Statment : Exec mysp 'table1',OUTPUT,OUTPUT
In the parmeter mappings:
variable1--direction Output, datatype Long, Parameter name: 0
variable2--direction Output, datatype date, Parameter name: 1
The variable 1 is created as int32 and variable 2 is created as dattime.
When i execute the SQLtask, I get error:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "Exec mysp 'table1',OUTPUT,OUTPUT" failed with the following error: "Error converting data type nvarchar to int.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
What am i missing. I tried changing the data types adding the input variable also as a variable in the mapping. Nothing seems to work. Any ideas please?

I have set up two user parameters: startdate and enddate.. I am not sure what I am doing wrong????
I think I have a basic question. Can someone tell me
the command I can use to have a stored procedure run
and generate output? This is for SQL 6.5.
I would like to schedule the sp_help_revdatabase
stored procedure to run periodically and output it
to a file. I think this is possible, but I haven't
been able to come up with the syntax...
Thanks for any suggestions!

Hello,
What I'm trying to do is get an XML query from a database and use the XML to render an excel document. Can this be done using SSIS? Can I actually read a column from a database and store it in a variable and then create an excel spreadsheet with that variable in SSIS? Would this be done in the control flow using the XML task editor?
Thanks,
Phil
Phil writes "I have a simple question. My scenerio is that I would like to read a column from a table in a SQL database in the Execute SQL Task in SSIS. I would like to assign the value of that column (which is a nvarchar(50) column) to a variable.

I've checked profiler and verified the call is getting to the database. Why can't I populate a nvarchar column to a string data type variable?

hi
I have created an Execute SQL Task package and save as package.dtsx
using northwind database
In this package, i have a sql statement: Select * into tblTest from dbo.Orders where OrderID >= ? and OrderID <= ?
I have created 2 package level variables which is OrderID1 and OrderID2, both are Int32 and Value = 0.
I have also used parameter mapping: user:OrderID1,Input, Long, 0, -1
user:OrderID2,Input, Long, 0, -1
I have created a proc to test:
Create Proc spTest
@Value1 int,
@Value2 int
as
Declare @cmd varchar(1000)
set @cmd = 'dtexec /FILE "C:Package.dtsx" /SET Package.Variables[OrderID1].Value;@Value1 /SET Package.Variables[OrderID2].Value;@Value2'
exec master..xp_cmdshell @cmd
When I execute spTest 10249,11029, it gave me "it could set Package.variables[OrderID1].value;@Value1 and so on.
I hope someone could help me with this. Thanks
Hey all
I have created an SQL Task with the following as SQL Statement Source expression:
"INSERT INTO SSISLog (EventDate,StaffNo, EventType, EventDescription)
VALUES (
'@[System::CreationDate]+',
' +@[System::SourceName]+' ,
'OnError',
'+ @[System::ErrorDescription] +'
)
"
And I get the following error:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "INSERT INTO SSISLog (EventDate,StaffNo, EventType, EventDescription) VALUES ( '@[System::CreationDate]+', ' +@[System::SourceName]+' , 'OnError', '+ @[System::ErrorDescription] +' ) " failed with the following error: "Parameter name is unrecognized.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
Any pointers will be highly appreciated. Oh and the purpose of this is to put error logs into the SSISLog table.
Many thanks

I am trying to run a Direct Input SQL query to SELECT MAX value of ColA. This query when I run on Query Window runs fine - means it is NOT a NULL. I get a max value.
When I run this query on a SSIS package outputing to a variable - I get the error. -
[Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "MAXROWKEYID": "The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::MAXROWKEYID" differs from the current variable type. Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object. ".
I need this output to be used for the subsequent steps which follows this.
I am using Value Type as Double. This was the default when I migrated this DTS package from SQL 2000. I use the proper Single Row for the Result Set and for outputing the Result Set, I use the correct Variable Name.
Help will be greatly appreciated...
Thanks.

In SSIS Control Flow, I a have an Execute SQL Task that populates a result set with data.
How can I make that same data accessible to my data flow - so that I can export the data to a flat file?
Thank you
I execute a sql task to get full resultset. How do i stop processing (With Package success) the package (With Package success) if the resultset returned is empty? Their does not seem to be any swith or expression to stop processing if i dont get any results.
