FTP Download Task (with Overwrite) Doesn't Overwrite!!!!!!!!!!
Jan 9, 2007
Error with SSIS FTP download task:
How to recreate the error:
Download a file using the task.
Go to the file in Windows Exploder and Open the file in notepad.
Copy the last line of text and paste in a few extra rows at the bottom. So if you had 100 rows, you'll now have 103 rows.
Save the file.
Go back to the task and make sure you have "overwrite destination" set to True.
Execute the task.
Go back to the file and look at the bottom of the file. You'll see the same 3 extra rows you pasted in there.
That is not how it should work if it was supposed to be released like that.
Are there any patches that fix this error?

I created a plan for a backup. This first truncates the log and after backups the data with overwrite mode and after backups the transaction log with overwrite mode.
The process is using different backup devices for the data and log backups.
The first 2 step is success (truncate and data backup) but in the last step the backup process don't overwrite the backup device. Why ?

I wasn't able to figure out the vocab to search for this on usenet.I'm sure it's an easy solution, but I have no experience with SQLServer:Situation:tbl_CompanyDatais a 1735 x 20 table with a CompanyID key in the first columntbl_MergedCompanyDatais a 1735 x 20 table imported from Excel. We found it much easier toenter data into an Excel file.Problem:Keep the CompanyID field in tbl_CompanyData, but replace all the other19 rows with data from tbl_MergedCompanyData, which contains all thetbl_CompanyData PLUS new data that users filled in. At present, therows don't match up, but I suppose I could pre-sort the tables.Preferrably, any solution would be smart enough to find CompanyID N intbl_MergedCompanyData and replace the data in the fifth column intbl_CompanyData where CompanyID is N with data from the fifth columnin tbl_MergedCompanyData.Any thoughts would be appreciated. Please let me know if I canclarify my problem.Thank you,Ryan

Hi :)
I have a website that uses SqlExpress ...on it i have a database that was working ok ...until i made a few modifications to the database (had a few rows).
I have upload the database (only the .mdf file) to the app_data folder ...but now i get this message :
One or more files do not match the primary file of the database. If you are attempting to attach a database, retry the operation with the correct files. If this is an existing database, the file may be corrupted and should be restored from a backup.Cannot open database "ArtWork" requested by the login. The login failed.Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'.Log file 'c:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxApp_DataArtWork_log.LDF' does not match the primary file. It may be from a different database or the log may have been rebuilt previously.
I try to delete the .LDF file but it gives me access denied ...i cheched the permissions for the file and everything is ok
How can i solve this??
Thanks and Cheers

I have daily scheduled full backups of each database and log backups scheduled for every 2 hours. My question is should they be scheduled for overwriting or appending? I have always had them set as overwrite, but I don't know if that is correct? Any recommendations would be appreciated

I have to created a Maintenance Plan in SQL 2005 to take the backup of 5 different DB at 2AM everyday. Each DB has its own sub-directory and backup file The total DB size is 35GB. I need to overwrite the exsisting backup instead of having new backup everytime.

After logging is configured in SSIS package, it seems that after each execution the output is appended to the log file (we are talking about log provider for text files in this case). As a result the file just keeps on growing. I would like to overwrite old information with each run, but I can't find where to configure this. Anybody knows?
Thank you!

Hi all I was wondering how to do an ALTER command on a Table but without specifying Column Names but rather attempting to overwrite the Table itself with the new fields specified? For instance if I have Table_1 consisting of the following fields:
IDFirstNameSurname
Then use the following ALTER command:
Code Snippet
ALTER Table Table_1
(
ID Int,
FirstName VarChar(50)
)
This would then drop Surname from the Table and leave only ID and FirstName inside it. Is this possible? I have been searching google but can't seem to find what I am looking for.
Thank for comments + suggestions. Regards, Onam.

First off, I am not a DBA, not even remotely close. Anywho, I have been given the task of figuring out how to import from a comma delimited text file into 2 columns of an existing database. The task is as follows:
- A daily text file is created by a Unix DB and placed on a folder local to the SQL Server.
- I am to take this file and import into an existing MS SQL2005 DB that has 3 columns.
- AccountID, AccountName, DateRecordCreated
- The imported data has to overwrite all existing SQL DB data.
- This is to run automated on a daily schedule.
Being a SysAdmin, this sounds super simple to do but I have wasted 2 full days in trying to figure out how to make this happen using SSIS. All I want to know is if I am in the right track in focusing on SSIS for a solution. Any additional How To's would be greatly appreciated. BTW, the text file looks something like this...
AccountID,AccountName
A123456,Joe Smith, M.D.
A234567,John H. Dude,M.D.
Thanx much

Good Morning, I need some assistance with SQL Server 2000 Importing Data.
When I import data from a text on a routine basis, three things must happen:
1. New records identified by primary key get appended to table.
2. Exisiting records identified by primary key get overwritten with new/(updated) data.
3. All other existing records are left alone.
Does anyone know how to Import Records with the following the criteria above? It cannot insert duplicate primary keys by nature, so it must overwrite those records!
This is being built into a DTS Package, but I need to get over this obsticle! Thanks for any guidance!

Aim – when Fee_Code = ‘42B’ and month_end_date =>2013-02-01 change the Fee_Code from “42B” to “42C”. Anything prior to 2013-02-01 the fee_code needs to remain the same
I can do this as a case statement(as seen below) but this creates a new column. How can i overwrite this logic in the fee_code column ?My query is
SELECT
FDMSAccountNo,
Fee_Code,
month_end_date,
sum(Fact_Fee_History.Retail_amount) as 'PCI',
Case
when
fee_code = '42B' and (month_end_date >='2013-02-01') then '42C' end as Test
from Fact_Fee_History
[code]....

I have 3 packages that run consecutively in a main package. Each of these packages read data from a flat file and import it into the Database and then perform some updates and then I use a script component to write the data to a flat file destination and have overwrite flag on the flat file destination to false, however the flat file is not being appended to. All the 3 packages are set to wirte to the same flat file destination each package overwrites the content of the flat file created by the previous packages.
I am wondering why the overwrite = False does not work on the flat file destination. Is there something else that I need to set or is this a defect? Any inputs will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
M.Shah

When calling the RS SOAP API's CreateReport method, it doesn't seem like the report description is updated, unless I first delete the report and then recreate it.
Here's what my call looks like -
Warning[] warnings = rs.CreateReport(reportName, "/" + folder, true, buffer, null);
Is this a known issue?

This is more of a philosophical post, but feedbacks are welcome!
I am working at migrating SQL 2000 DTS packages that pulls data from MAS90 via ODBC connections.
At first, I REALLY tried to learn SSIS and I hated it at first, with all the new things one has to do to get a simple import to work. After a while, I begin to appreciate some of the new design and the more tiered approach. Indeed, I tried to use SSIS to import the tables and even learned how to overcome the Unicode/non-Unicode conversion errors by using the Import Wizard to do the grunt work.
But today I came across a show stopper: My imports are failing because the source lied about its metadata type and I am getting a "Value too large for output column" error. I tried to recreate the Task to no avail. I searched on the web and there are very few posts regarding to this and unfortunately I don't have a way to tweak my ODBC connection properties for MAS90 to some how "fool" SSIS. I finally give up and migrate the DTS 2000 package instead.
I am not too happy about this solution because I know that more likely or not Microsoft will discontinue support for such legacy approach and then it is more work down the road. I REALLY wanted to do it right, to rebuild it natively in SSIS but why does SSIS have to make things so hard by enforcing the type checks so tightly? Is it so bad to allow users who know the data better to by pass the validations? We are not working in a perfect Comp Sci 101 world where every thing is scrubbed clean, we work in a world of bad, old, malformed data.
If there is a way for me to overcome that "value too large" error, I am all ears.
Thank you for reading.

Hi guys,
I've been assigned the task of setting up access to our SQL Server 2005 box. A consultant developing for us has accessing to 2 databases and I've set this up fine. It appears however that one of these databases is re-copied over to the server every night to keep data reasonably current.
I'm not interesting in changing this method as I'm not the maintainer (as yet).
Basically I would like to know if I've setup access to this database (it works fine), when the database is updated (with an SSIS package) the account seems to get deleted. Do the original permissions from the source database overwrite those of its destination?
Cheers

Hi,
I have a FTP task in my control flow that download files from a FTP server. This ftp task is inside a foreach container that loops over a ADO recordset for the file name. The files that the ftp task pulls are huge. If the FTP task fails then I want the FTP task to restart and only download those files that have not been downloaded. Is this possible?
What possible configurations do I have to make to the foreach container and the filetask?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help and time.
Regards,

I have an SSIS package that inserts website URLs from a SQLServer table into a variable used by an HTTP Connection Manager, then downloads the data files from those URLs using a ForEach Loop and a Script Task. Works beautifully when a data file is found at the URL, but hangs if no data file is found. I've set the Timeout property on the HTTP Connection Manager to 30 seconds, but doesn't work. how to first check if a data file exists, of if the request returns nothing, or how to trap this situation in a try-catch?
Here is the VB code I'm using in the Script Task:
Public Sub Main()
Try
' Connect to website using HTTP connection manager
Dim nativeObject As Object = Dts.Connections("HTTP Connection Manager").AcquireConnection(Nothing)
' Create a new HTTP client connection
Dim connection As New HttpClientConnection(nativeObject)
[code].....

[Microsoft follow-up]
dtexec.exe allows us to pass values into a package using /SET and a property path. Why can't we do the same using the Execute Package Task?
And yes, I know about Parent Package Configurations, I use them alot. But I would still like the ability to pass values in.

Source Database: SQL Server 2000
Destination Database: SQL Server 2005
No matter what table, view, or stored proc I pick, it always says that it doesn't exist at the source. I know it exists because I am picking it from the list of tables, etc. that the GUI provides.
Any suggestions?

The task has a fault if you try to copy a table with a schema like [test].[table1]
The error says
Error: 0xC002F363 at Flyt til DM, Transfer SQL Server Objects Task: Table "table1" does not exist at the source.
Even though i just selected it from the table list minutes before.

Hi,
I need to execute a DTS that have a couple of steps and one of them is a process task that simply call an exe file i made that will send an email to warn the user.
What happens here is that the process task executes my exe file but it doesn't wait for it to compete and fires the next task after and finally closes.
There is anyway to make a "while statament" to wait until my exe application finishes?
Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Tiago Teixeira

I'm trying to put together an SSIS package that will look in one directory for 2 distinctly named .csv files. The files will then be loaded into 2 tables.
The first task I execute is a SQL Task that checks to see if the tables I'm loading the data into are empty. If the tables have data, the package stops executing. If they are empty, the package continues to execute.
What is the best way to send an email out from SSIS if the package stops on the first step?

This problem is a bit weird but I'm just wondering if anybody else experienced this.
I have a package that has file system tasks (copying dtsx files actually). Basically the package copies other packages to a pre-defined destination. Thing is, it only works if one of the packages it is configured to copy has some sort of sensitive data (e.g., a connectionstring with a password), otherwise it reports a success message on execution but doesn't actually do anything. I've checked the forcedexecutionresult and it is set to None for that matter.
Just wondering if anybody else experienced this problem and of course if there's a way to solve it.
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
x 5
y 9
....
Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
thanks
