Currently
File Connection Manager Editor with
Usage Type : Create File
and
File: eg C:DBALogSSISPackage1.log
The desired Goal:
Rather than hardcode the file directory for a log file
eg C:DBALogSSISPackage1.log
can the definition be parameterized.
For example \MachineNameDBALogSSISPackage1.log
where MachineName is the location where the package is phyiscally
located.
Hi everybody,
Is there a way to set SelectParameter for SQLDataSource in ASPX file using System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SiteID"]) ?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Does anyone know if this is possible right out of the box in SSRS 2005 against an OLAP data source?
I have several parameters. My second parameter is to be filtered based on the first parameter (kinda like cascading), but how do I do this against an OLAP data source? Lets say I have param1 and param2 in a dataset. I want Param2 to show the locations only based on what I select in Param1.
Same but a little different: I have Parameter1 and then my second parameter (Param2) is a boolean (True/False). I want to show Parameter 3/Paramater 4 based on selection of Param2 (So, if true, show Param3, if false, show Param 4) and remember we are doing this in a sequence.
Can you do this thru SSRS? Any help would be great.
Thanks for your time in advance.

Is it possible to fill a parameter list with values based on another parameter value?
Here's what I have so far (which hasn't worked)...
I'd like to generate a report listing information for a student. The report viewer would first select a school from the first drop-down menu, and then the second drop-down menu would populate with the list of students at that school.
I have a dataset that calls a sp which returns a list of schools (SchoolID and SchoolName fields from the database table).
I have another dataset that calls a sp (with SchoolID as the parameter) which returns a list of students for that school.
Both datasets return the appropriate data when tested individually, but when I set up the Report Parameters and build the report, these errors come up...
The value expression for the query parameter '@SchoolID' refers to a non-existing report parameter 'SchoolID'.
The report parameter 'Student' has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter "SchoolID". Forward dependencies are not valid.
...Is it possible for the reoprt to generate a list of available parameter values based on the value selected for another parameter?
Any help you can give me would be great!! Thank you
I am using reporting services 2012, Can we make visibility of report parameter dynamic, ie can we make parameter visible or hide on certain condition or its visibility depends on other parameters Is this feature available in any other updated version of ssrs?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have two parameters both are related to each other.
second parameter should get filled based on the selection of the first one which is project.
the first paramater is project, once the project is selected it should bring the all the contracts related to that project.
Please is it possible...
Thank you very much for all the helpful info.
I would like to be able to adjust the multi-value property of a parameter based on the value of another parameter in my report. The controlling paramter would be binary with two options for Single or Multiple selection. I would like my parameter to default to multi-value, which I can do on the screen selection. I have tried to add an IIF statement to the XML code, with no success. Any ideas would be helpful.
Thanks
I am using report builder 3.0.
I have a report parameter called para1 which is a drop-down list and what I want to do is display another report parameter based on the para1 selection.
So for example, para1 contains a, b, c choices. if a user selects b, I would like para2 to display but if the user selects a or c, I don't want the para2 to display.
Hi
In 2000 is it possible to list second parameter based on selection
in the first parameter list

I am finding that in order to have the Web Services Task work successfully the location of the WSDL file has to be on a local drive that SSIS is executing upon. Is the current intended behavior?
In my SSIS task I use a URL path to store information extracted from the Web Service. The information is stored on a different server than the one that SSIS is running upon. This works properly without error.
I have confirmed that SSIS has appropriate permissions to read/write to that directory on that server. When I attempt to reference the WSDL file (located in the same URL directory that I am saving the information) I get a web services error, 'The Web Services Name is empty, Verify that a valid web service name is available."
When I update the Web Service Task attribute to point to the WSDL file located on a local drive it works correctly. I have confirmed that both WSDL documents are exactly the same.
The behavior seems a little strange...so I must be missing something subtle.

Greetings, I have just arrived back into the country (NZ) and back into ASP.NET.
I am having trouble with the following:An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file (file location).../Database.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
It has only begun since i decided i wanted to use IIS, I realise VWD comes with its own localhost, but since it is only temporary, i wanted a permanent shortcut on my desktop to link to my intranet page.
Anyone have any ideas why i am getting the above error? have searched many places on the internet and not getting any closer.

Easy question, I hope We are setting up an active active sql cluster. The management have done everything the wrong way around and purchased the hardware already.
We are planning on having 2 databases 1 in each instance. We will place the transaction log files for each database on their own cluster "physical disk" resource. We only have 4 disks availalbe for the transaction log files. To make things a little more complicated I have been given no information on the expected transaction use other than they should be no larger than 50GB
Here are my options
1. 2 Mirrored raid arrays one for each sql instance
2. 1 Raid 10 array with 2 logical drives (so the transaction logs are sharing the same disk spindles)
What would you do? seperate the disk spindles or share them and go for fast disk performace.
Thanks in advanced
Hi everyone,
I have this semi-complex query that is selecting items from numerous tables residing on 2 different databases. So far the query works perfectly. Here is the problem: The user is given the option of selecting items based on whether a course is Completed (C) Incomplete (I) Passed (P) Failed (F) or (ALL). I am not really sure how to do the select all, the others I can do depending on the value...
Any thoughts??

Is the name of the most recent backup file for each database stored anywhere in SQL2K? I want execute a SQA job periodically that takes the BAK from database A and restores it over database B (using the T-SQL RESTORE DATABASE procedure), but I need to know the exact name of the .BAK file; i.e. I need to know the yyyymmddhhmm value at the end of that file.
TIA,

I've got some users that created a database with the log file on a drive that doesn't have a lot of space. I'd like to truncate the log and move it to a different drive. I can truncate it, but is moving it as easy as changing the files properties through SSMS?
Thanks
version:SQL Server 2000.
db size: 25.6GB
trans log file: 32GB
so far: I have read the Forum FAQ on "clearing the transaction file" and some DBCC SHRINK in Books Online.
I am trying to set up maintenance plan or backup plan. File sizes are getting very large and performance is horrible since we have had no regular maintainence in the past (No DBA in house).
1. What is the best way to identify the location of the transaction log file associated with a particular database?
When I right-click on the database name in Enterprise Manager and select properties, I can see one location for the transaction log.
However, If I right-click on the database > All Tasks > Shrink Database > click Files and select Temp_Table_Log, I get a different location.
2. We delete then repopulate about 105000 records in one particular table each day. In addition, we do the same with about a hundred rows in several other tables daily.
-- Should I be doing Full Backups nightly?
-- I have the option set to "AutoShrink" on the db. Will this truncate and shrink the transaction log as well as shrink the db when I do a full backup?
Thanks,

I am requested to list out SQL Server setup file location but a bit confused with it, I can see two setup files in two different locations:
All Programms>Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2>Configuration Tools>SQL Server Installation Center (64bit)>Right Click>Open File Location: Directing to LandingPage
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server100Setup BootstrapSQLServer2008R2x64
But here below it is found the setup file location:
E:SoftwareSW_DVD9_SQL_Svr_Enterprise_Edtn_2008_R2_English_MLF_X16-29
Here in case I have to install a new instance which one I have to select?
To repair the existing instance which setup file I have to select?
I can install the SQL Server Express in a computer and locate the database files in another computer of the same local network?

I have an FTP server that will be receiving files. The directory
and file structure will be a folder with a client name (can be called
anything) and it will have files in it (these files will have the same
filenames as all the other directories. So I will have folder
JimmyDoe with files a.txt, b.txt, c.txt and I will have JonnyDue with
files a.txt, b.txt, and c.txt.
Now I'm trying to figure out a way to get that dynamic file location to
a DTS package so I can import all the data from the text file into a
SQL server. The way the SQL server will be set up is that each
Folder from the FTP site will be a separate Database and each file will
1:1 with a table with the same name..
My biggest issue is figuring out a way to tell the DTS package the file
location to pull all those files and then importing them to the proper
database.
I'm not limiting the solution to DTS packages so if .NET can be
incorporated to make it easier then so be it. But keep in mind I
can have up to 200 folders with 12 - 20 text files ranging from
hundreds of rows of data to many thousands of rows. And the
package needs to be ran twice a day so time/performance is an
issue.
To recap: Need DTS package that uses Dynamic file source and transfers data to Dynamic database destination.
(And I'll write slow VB.NET code to handle this before I create/manage 200+ DTS packages as a solution)
Any help at all is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Prasanna.
I'm writing a script for a pending migration (2k enterprise to 2k5x64 enterprise). I've got about 325 or so databases, spanned across 3 instances that I need to migrate. My plan is to do a mass scripted detach of all DBs of the old boxes, copy the files (on a new domain) and then reattach all of the mdf and ldf files.
I've been writing a sql script that will scan a "staging" directory for each of the MDF and LDF files, then programmatically run sp_attachdb. The problem is that the mdf and ldf files weren't always a 1 to 1 naming convention. My predecessors stuck all sorts of things in the file names that make doing a simple scripted search pretty difficult. The disk paths are going to be different from server to server (simpler), so I need to move the files
Is there a way (using sp_attachdb or otherwise) that I could somehow scan each of the MDF files to get the path of the LDF? I can already do that with a .bak file using the RESTORE FILELISTONLY command, but I'm not sure how to do it like this. I'm figuring there has to be a way though, as SSMS seems to know where the LDF is if you try to attach an MDF.
Usually, Google does well, but I haven't been able to find anything as of yet. Any ideas?

Hi, I am working on a new installation which I did not set up and realized was using the wrong partition of the server to store the data and log files, I have already created several databases, I want to use another partition for these databases without having to drop them and create them all over again.
In BOLine i saw this command but want to make sure its safe, hope somebody can comment on this or if I am missing something.thank you
proposed command:
"MODIFY FILE ( NAME = logical_file_name, FILENAME = 'new_path/os_file_name ' )"
I asked this before and was told that it was an option on setup, but for the life of my I can't find it.
I have a requirement for all the transaction logs to go to a separate drive (L:), I would like to be able to specify this location as part of the install but I don't see the option. I have been successful doing so after the install but it is a bit annoying to have to do it that way when it seems like the install should have this option.
I am reaching out once more to see if anyone can tell me if I am missing something in the install process that will allow me to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I have a requirement to have all the transaction logs for our SQL Server databases go to a drive letter L: - I would like to do this during the install process but I don't see any way to specify in the setup. I am able to go in and do it after the install but it is a bit of a pain to do.
Anyone know how I can do this in the install itself?

I have developed an SSIS package which uses an XML configuration file for connection information. It runs fine both from Visual Studio and from an Agent job after I specify the location of the XML configuration file in the Agent job definition.
My question is regarding the target location of the XML configuration file after deployment. I do my SSIS development on a local workstation with SQL Server 2005 DE and Visual Studio 2005 installed on it. I deploy my SSIS packages to a remote SQL Server 2005 SE server. Both machines are running SP1. I double-click the package manifest from my local workstation and specifiy the remote server in the deployment utility. The package gets deployed to the remote server just fine but the XML configuration file ends up on my local workstations C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSPackages path. I would have expected that the XML configuration file would have gone to the same path on the remote server, where the package itself was deployed. Obviously, when I run the deployment utility from the remote server, it stores the XML configuration file in the same path on the remote server. But this is not a workable production solution.
I've been working on package configurations here, mainly trying to figure out what works, and how. If I use an XML configuration, and and don't specify the path, ie just typing in test.dtsconfig, it creates the config file on my desktop. When I execute the packge in BIDS, it seems to be looking in that location. If however, I execute the package manually on the filesystem, test.dtsconfig must be in the same directory as the package (which is what I would expect). Why does this work differently in BIDS. Also, if the package is deployed to a SQL server, where would the configuration file need to be in this case? Thanks for the help.

I have an SSIS package that I created that looks like the following:
Execute SQL Task [Determines the file name]
Data Flow Task
Source - Query [Grabs the data]
Destination [Saves data to file on network drive]
Send Mail Task [Tells user to get file from network]
When I run this package inside Microsoft
Visual Studio I get the results I want. It sends the file to the
network drive and because there are SSN's in the file, it doesn't
actually e-mail the file but puts it in a secure location for the
person to get the file.
When I schedule this in SQL Server 2005 I get the file saved to: c:windowssystem32dynamicfilename.csv
So somehow it is still able to determine what the file name should be, but instead of sending the file to the right destination when you run it through VS, it flops out and sends it to this wacky directory.
I've
spent too much time on this and was wondering if someone can point me
in the right direction without going to the extent of writing a script
like this suggests. thread1555-1265108

During installation of SQL Server 2000 I set the default location for data files as D:MySQLServer which resulted in the location D:MySQLServerMSSQL.
I then installed SQL Server 2005. I do not remember being given the option of specifying location for the Data Files. Then I read that the location for named instances is deteremined by the first installation of SQL Server. The location for the data files for SQL Server 2005 turned out to be MSSQL.1 but under C:Program Files.....
I want the default location for SQL Server 2005 to be under D:MySQLServer, something like D:MySQLServerMSSQL.1. How do I do I change the default location for the Data Files.

Hi,
I am using SQL Server configuration indirectly with the connection to it configured in an XML configuration file with the location of the XML file and the connections all being different between development and production. I deploy to the file system using the SSIS Deployment Manifest/Package Installation Wizard.
It seems that sometimes the path to the XML config file is updated in the deployed packages and sometimes it is not.
When the path is updated, all connection strings (as displayed in the Connection Managers section of the Execute Package Utility) are displaying the new values as well.
When it is not, it looks for the XML file in the development location and since it cannot find it all configurations still point to the development connections.
Does anyone know of any conditions when the location of the XML config does not get updated and when it doesn't?
Thanks,
Sven
