I have to build a simple Windows Forms application that imports data for review and then exports it into a different format. I've created DTS packages in SQL 2000 for the import and the export.
What is the recommended way to execute the packages using buttons on a Windows form?
I just want to confirm my thinking here.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I've been assigned a task by one of the programmer in my team to create packages from some of the databases(One from SQL2005&Other one from SQLEXPRESS)
I've created and saved the packages using the export wizard.I saved the Packages as Integration Services Packages(On file System).
Now he wants me to execute the packages using SSIS But in different time,like maybe after 5min.Other package runs.
I really have no clue how to do that,I've added Both packages in SSIS,But i really dont know how to run them in different time.
If anyone could help please do so!
Hello Everyone,
I am going through the following article
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141766.aspx
and I have some clarifications to seek.
Based on the above article it seems its possible to run a DTS package on a SQL 2006 X64 machine.
Furthermore it seems possible that this package will run without any upgrade being performed to SSIS.
Also, to execute the DTS package in 32 bit mode, all I have to do is to set the job step type of SQL Agent to Operating system, and enter a command line or use a batch file that invokes the 32-bit version of dtexec.exe. You can use the dtexecui.exe utility to create the command line, and then copy and paste the command line into the job step.
Are the above deductions correct? Please let me know if some correction / refinement is needed.
Hello,
I hope that I am posting to the correct forum.
I have created a SSIS package in VS2005 to export data fom SQL Server2005 into Excel. The package works every single time I run it from the VS designer. When I run the package from a WinForms app using C# the result of the package is always 'Failure'.
I have seen the code on a number of different sites on how to do this and am very confident the code is correct. However, I cannot figure out why the package fails from my app as I am not getting back and error messages. Can anyone please shed some light on this for me?
Here is the code that executes the package:
private void btnExport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DTS.DTSExecResult result;
DTS.Package pkg = app.LoadPackage(pkgLoc + "GKDataOut.dtsx", null);
pkg.ImportConfigurationFile(pkgLoc + "GKDataOut.dtsConfig");
try
{
result = pkg.Execute();
tbCandidates.Text = result.ToString();
}
catch (DTS.DtsException err)
{
MyMessageBox.ShowBox(err.ToString(), "Candidate export error", false, 2);
}
finally
{
}
}
I am very new to .Net. Perhaps I'm doing something blatently stoopid but can't see it.
Many thanks in advance,
Roi Paris

I am trying to execute around 3 SSIS packages using Execute package task by having all the 3 in one SSIS package,
I am getting the below error:

HelloWe ran into a peculiar problem. We copied all of our DTS packagesfrom one server to another server (both of which run SQL 2000 and areon the same Service Pack 3/3a). When we execute an embedded DTSpackage from within anothe DTS package, we get the following error:Error Title: Server BusyError Description: This action cannot be completed because the otheprogram is busy. Choose 'Switch To' to activate the busy program andcorrect the problem.Buttons Available: Swith To..., RetryButtons Disabled: CancelDoes any one know about this error and what to do about it?ThanksJagannathan Santhanam (Jags)
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to get a clear explanation on what I need to do in order to be able to execute SSIS packages which I have located on an app server. Is it that I need integration services installed on the app server itself and thats it? Or can someone tell me if there is any more to it, thanks folks!
View 1 Replies View RelatedWith DTS you could copy and register some DLLs onto a non-SQL Server PC and run Packages. Is this still possible with SSIS? I imagine that, at the very least, you would have to copy dtexec.exe and the *,dtsx files to the other computer.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am facing some issues while working on SSIS in VS2005,
The Scenario is we have 35 excel files from which we have to import data
to Sql 2005.
We have to execute these packages in a specific sequence so we are not
using For Each Loop Control.
Now the Problem is this that we have 35 executables as an output that is
corresponding to each package, and from each executable we can Change
excel path and Sql Connection String.
The problem is that one has to open each executable to set the path; we
wanted to keep them Configurable like , as if we can have any variable
define in the packages for path, and in the packages we use that variable
and append the XLS file name to it like ..
@PathVariable+ test.xls
And from the Configuration file at run time we can set the path to this
variable like
@Path Variable="C: /Windows/ Test Folder/"
And then executable picks the path from there.
Is there any possibility to implement any thing similar, we have tried but
its not working, any help in this regard will be really appreciating.
Its really urgent, I will wait for feedback on this.
hi ... i several ssis packages which has to be started as and when required. i want to give users that have no access to the sql server the possibility to start some of these packages (ideally out an an erp system or as web interface) the first idea that came in my mind was to create a webservice on sql server which calls the dtexec with the given parameters, but i have no idea if this is the best solution or if this is possible at all.
View 5 Replies View RelatedOn 64 bit SSIS platforms (win2k3 and vista), where the amount of virtual memory is practically unlimited, is there any advantage to running child Integration Services Execute Package Tasks out of process? The question pertains to 64 bit processes on a 64 platform, not 32 on 32, or 32 bit emulation processes on 64.
Would the answer be different based on the amount of physical memory on the machine, supposing one had a "reasonable" amount of memory on the machine (e.g. 4Gb or more )
Hi - I have a master package that executes a series of other packages. Each of these 'sub' packages has the security property Encryption Level set to 'EncryptSensitiveWithPassword'.
The master package has a series of file connections in the Connection Manager, one for each sub package, in which the password of the corresponding sub package is provided.
When I run the master package in BIDS (in interactive mode) it opens each of the sub packages, requests the password and gives the 'Document contains one or more lines of extremely long text' dialog box.
Is there any way to suppress the repeated password requests (seeing as it has already been provided in the Connection Manager) and warnings about long lines of text when executing the master package?
Thanks . . . Ed
The scenario:
I have a package that first needs to copy some files from a workstation computer up to a server. If I set the package execution up as a job, the packages executes under a domain account (<domain><sql agent>). This domain account does not have access rights to the directory on the workstation, therefore the package can not see or copy the files in the directory. I have tried to execute the package from the command line using 'RUNAS' with 'dtexec.exe' (runas /user:<domain><user> detexec.exe ...) using my own user name and apparently, because you have to wait for the password prompt, this doesn't work either.
So, is there a way for me to set up a package to run under a specific set of credentials so that I am able to copy the files from the workstation up to the server? I realize that just setting up the current <sql agent> user with the proper credentials would be the easiest, but our network admin group won't hear of it. They want one user id that SQL Server, SSIS, SSAS and SSRS run under (the <sql agent> account) and another user id that has the file system access that I described above.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Is there a way to execute ETL packages programatically? Specifically, is it possible to
manually invoke the ETL package to execute from, say, an ASP.NET
application?
If so, how do you do that?
I've been searching MSDN regarding this but all I see are examples on programatically building packages.
Hi,
I have developed about 20 to 30 packages that are executed on a specific order by a parent package that iterates a foreach cycle...
Has in development server all packages run just fine... when deployed to the production server and executed the first child package to run gives error and says that the logging text file was unable to find the file??? It was supposed for the log to create and send information to the file right? So i think this is a little bit weird...
Any idea of what is going on here?
Regards,
Project => New SSIS package => Execute package task and in this many more Execute package task with connectors. When we execute the master package how it will decide which is the first package.

Hello all -
Based on advice from this board, I am setting up our newly-converted DTSX packages (sql server 2000 (DTS) to 2005 (SSIS) package conversion) to utilize package configurations to make it easier to run them in multiple environments (dev, testing, production, etc...). This seems to be working just fine, but I now have another question.
We have approximately 12 DTSX packages which need to be executed in a specific sequential order. I was wondering what the best / most widely accepted method is to allow for running them as an automated process. If you double click on each DTSX file individually, the "Execute Package Utility" pops up, and you can run the package. I'd like to know the best way for us to be able to run each package, one after the other (each one waiting until the previous one completes before it begins), until they have all processed. It would be nice if it did not rely on SQL Server being installed on the machine on which it is being run...
thanks for all the fantastic support on this site
I have few DTSX packages on my SQL server 2005. These packages are supposed to transfer data and stored procedures from server to client Express engine. The scenario is that when user connects with the server he should run some kind of utility or any other way to run those SSIS packages so that the data could be transfered.
Remember the user machine has only SQL Express Engine and the packages are in SQL server 2005 machine.
Can any one help me out how to achive this scenario?
Regards...

I created several packages (MyProjectPart1 - MyProjectPart9) which I execute on the server directly(right-click package in integration services and execute). These packages alI deployed the server with logging and configuration files. Before deploying I edited the configuration file (changed all dependent file names and sql server name from default on my workstation to those unique to the server I'm deploying it to) and then ran the manifest file which pushed it onto the server. I then ran the packages from the server an it ran beautifully. I then tried to build a package which executes all the packages in the correct order (by adding 9 execute package tasks). The dependen files are on the E: emp folder on the server.
I have included the error messg...but it looks like it's looking for dependent drives on the C drive on my workstation. I don't get this? How do I supply configuration files? Why is it executing differently when I call it from package execute task and when I execute it on SQL Server

You may not be authorized to access this information. This error occurs when there is a cryptographic error. Verify that the correct key is available.
this problem is described in the article below however the only advice they offer is to "change the value of the ProtectionLevel property " however they don't specify what to change the value to. I have tried every option but it still does not work. And having them enter in a password every time is out of the question.

It seems there is no way for someone other than the package owner to run the package! Running them from the sql server is not an option since we don't have permission to do so. As far as I know BIS is the only way.
I am building a bunch of packages on our new server and all was going well until I edited the project using the client tools on my PC. I now receive the below error if I try to execute any of the packages on the server (all is still fine on the client). I have scoured the net but I don't seem to be able to come up with a solution.

I have installed Office 2007 Beta 2 and SQL Server 2005 at my system.
I made 2 packages (C:Package.dtsx, C:Package1.dtsx). I am executing Package1 inside Package.dtsx using Executing Package Task.
In package1.dtsx there is some configuration that is coming at runtime(For each loop container having some file connections) , so I have put DelayValidation property of this package to True, but that did not work when I called this package from Package1.dtsx, then I found one workaround, I changed the ExecuteOutOfProcess of ExecutePacakge task to True,
Now the problem is that before installing Office 2007 the both were executing fine (it was taking some time in starting the second package because of OutOfProcess execution).
After installing Office 2007 I get the following error while executing the second package from first package.
Error: Error 0x800703E6 while loading package file "C:Package1.dtsx". Invalid access to memory location. .
This problem comes whenever the I execute the package having OutOfProcess property to true.
Is there any workaround for this, or I am wrong somewhere.
Thanks in advance.

I have a problem with a SQL Server (2000) Agent Job that has 3 steps that don't produce the desired outcome when invoked in total but will produce the desired outcome if the first step is broken up from the last two steps.
1) The first step uses third party software to generate PDFs to a folder.
2) The second step executes the following command to ftp the PDFs to a folder and move these PDFs to a backup folder:
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'm: & cd C:Program Filesfoldername1 AutoGeneral_Ftp & dir & FTP -n -s:C:Progra~1foldername1AutoGeneral_FTPupload_G eneral.ibc www.someorgname.org & move /Y
\networkdriveArchiveGeneral*.pdf \networkdriveArchiveackupsGeneral'
3) The third step determines if any files remain in the folder that contained the PDFs. If files are still in the folder then the FTP and move step (step 2) did not work and a stored procedure is invoked to send an email to the appropriate administrator
DECLARE @result int
EXEC @result = master..xp_cmdshell 'Dir "\networkdriveArchiveGeneral*.pdf" | find /i "file"'
IF @result = 0
exec ibc_sp_Email_Report_Failure 'FTP General Report'
When I invoke this job from Enterprise Manager and view the job history, it says that all steps executed successfully (which I understand may be the case even if the files were not FTPed or moved since the command can still return a code indicating success even though it didn't do what I expected.) In fact, the PDF is generated and written to \networkdriveArchiveGeneral
eportname.pdf. Steps 2 and 3 do not do what I expect. The PDFs still remain in the folder.
But when I start the job from step 2, the files are then moved. So, invoking the entire job does not move the files; invoking the job from step 2 moves the files.
Simple, you think, it is obvious that you didn't set up your job steps correctly in that step 1 does not go to the next step upon success. But I already checked that. Step 1 goes to the next step upon success.
Anybody ever come upon this problem? Any suggestions as to what else I can look at?
Thanks in advance,
Stedan
