How to design ta SSIS package which loops through DESTINATION folder files and checks whether that file is there in the SOURCE or not.
If the file exists then I have to check the modified date on DESTINATION file if it is greater than 1 day delete that file. If the modified date is less than that SOURCE file then I have to copy that
file to DESTINATION<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p>
If there are files which exists in SOURCE and not in DESTINATION, then how shall we copy all the files to the DESTINATION that are created on the day of execution of package.<o:p></o:p>
I am going to be writting a script to add columns to a given table. Can anyone advise me how i check if the coulmn exists in a table before i modify it?
We have a SSIS package which is accessing a remote Windows file share location. The package first moves the file from folder-1 to folder-2 and also renames the file during this process. Then the package reads the file (using a flat file connection FF_SRC) from folder-2 and renames it again after processing it successfully.
The permissions given to the user executing the package on folder-2 are: Read+Write+Modify+List folder contents.
We are facing an error:
Code SnippetFile or directory "Z:folder-2XYZ.txt" represented by connection "FF_SRC" does not exist.
We are getting the above error when the SSIS package is trying to rename the file the second time in folder-2.
However, the file exists in folder-2.
The OS is Windows 2000 Server SP4.
Any ideas why this could be happening and how it could be resolved?
Hi All,I have several questions about checking backup file :a. When SQL Server receive a command :BACKUP DATABASE test to DISK = '\pc1etdbBTEST',does it verify BTEST file before ending the job ?b. Is there any special command for checking / verifyinga backup file ?c. If I send a restore command using a file infectedby a virus, what action will SQL Server take ?Thanks in advanceJohn S*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
Using SSIS, I want to check if a specific file exists on an FTP server or not. If yes, then i'll go with a flow, and if not, i'll go with another flow. Any help with that?
I need to be able to see if the incoming csv file had a head row different than the previous files header row. That will tell me that I have new columns.
OK. Here's my situation. I check for the existence of a dummy .txt file using a script. I send an e-mail if it does not exist and exit package. The .txt file only exists if another .xls file is present which I import. However, during the validation phase of the package, the package fails because the .xls file does not exist. Is there a way to bypass the validation step? The only solution I came up with is to have a two-step job. The first runs the file check step and sends the e-mail. The second attemps to run the package and fails. Not a very graceful exit.
I wrote the below script to print all folders and files located in the share path. How to extend my script to mention by adding another column whether the file is a folder/file , sort of 0 or 1.
1)My source files[.txt] come from an FTP server.I need to find a way to include within my SSIS package,a task that would watch a certain folder of the FTP Server and send a mail notification as soon as the file arrives.Tried using filewatcher task http://www.sqlis.com/23.aspx, but the task stays "yellow" for a long time while package is being excuted.I dont know if this is what I need to use.Are they any other task/ways?
Another Problem I'm facing is;
2)If the source file coming in the FTP Server is zipped.How do I unzip the file and move it back to the FTP Server folder for the task in 1) to watch on it .Any ideas ?
i have a data flow task which create a .txt file in destination from source table. i have used expression for the out file name to add date values to the out put file name using expression window
for example the output file is department05032008, my biggest problem over here at this moment is i need to suffix the file name if the file executes more then one time. ( requirment is i cannot use timestamp)
for example today my output file name is department05032008, the next hour the package executes it the file name should be department05032008A, then department05032008B and so on .
can i suffix the file name in expression window where i am generating the output file name , if possible i want to avoid the vb script as i am not good at it.
I'm attempting to check to see if a file exists on our server before showing a link it.
I put this function in the Report Properties:
Code Block Function isFile(PathFileName As String) As Boolean Return isFile = System.IO.FileExists(PathFileName) End Function
I chose a situation where I'm getting back two rows of data, one row is true and the other row is false however, when I run the report they're both coming back as 'True'.
We created a virtual directory to the file system that houses our files, so my PathFileName variable will contain something like http://Sales/North/Sales110907.pdf.
Can I use the FileExists in this fashion or am I going down the wrong path?

We have a database called Itemphotos. In this table is a field called 'PID' picture ID. We have a photos directory with files like 2181.jpg, 2182.jpg, 2184.jpg. The number is the ID number for the picture of the part. If a record exist in the database based on the PID "Primary Key" , check the directory to make sure the jpg file exist. Here is the code I have so far.
use [ItemPhotos] select pid from dbo.itemdata declare @file_path nvarchar(500) declare @file_exists int set @file_path = 'av-sql2c$inetpubphotosmacolaphotos' + [itemdata].[pid]

I have used an excel file connection manager to load my source excel file to import data to the sql server database. I need to log a error message when the required file did not exists. Plz let me know how to do this.
I am trying to bulk insert a text file into SQL 2005 table. When I execute the bulk insert I get the error
"Msg 4860, Level 16, State 1, Line 1. Cannot bulk load. The file "\ENDUSER-SQLEnduserTextB1020063.txt" does not exist."
The text file that it is saying does not exist I recently created thru my code. I can open the file but only when I rename the file will the Bulk Insert work. After creating the text file I am moving it to the server that SQL server is running on. Also if I run sp_FileExists it also says the file does not exist unless again I rename the file then this stored procedure recognizes the file. I dont' know if I have a permission issue or what is the problem. Any help would be appreiated.
I've done some searcing on this forum and online. I found one thread that talked about this problem, but it didn't seem to help me at all.
I have a package that downloads an xml file from a ftp server for processing. The file is named after the day that it was put on the ftp server. So, to help the situation I created a variable that gets set to the proper name before the FTP Task fires.
Now, I've been working with this SSIS task for just over 2 months and haven't seen this issue ONCE until I deployed it on the production helper server. All of my other SSIS tasks are working fine in my other Tasks.
I have set DelayValidation to true for the FTP Task, I have moved around the time the task gets run. This is what is really tricky. If I fire off the task manually (by running the batch file that runs all my tasks on the console) it works fine! I've ran it 3-4 times throughout the day manually and it works perfectly! However, whenever it is scheduled to be run in the middle of the night, it fails!
This problem has stumped me good. I can run the task manually, but when I run it scheduled, I get : File represented by "User::ftpXmlPath" does not exist.
I have hard coded the value for the User::FilePath variable in the parent package.
I am mapping this variable to the value of the same variable in the Child Package.
I created a directory and sql file: "C: empsqlb.sql". I have verified that the path variable value is passed to the child package by using a Script task with a messgbox call.
How do I define an execute sql task to execute sql file: @[User::FilePath] & "sqlb.sql". I'm using this expression for the SqlStatementSource property. I have entered the OLEDB server information and specified the SQLSourceType = fileconnection.
However I get the error:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Connection manager "D: lewisdevZsqlb.sql" does not exist.
I am sure I'm being dumb here but I am trying to deploy an assembly with external_access.
I have signed the assembly using the <new> option in the project properties.
When I then try and create the Key I get the above error using the code below.
CREATE ASYMMETRIC KEY SQLExtensionUDTKey
FROM EXECUTABLE FILE = 'C:Documents and SettingsSimon SabinMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsSQLBitsCoreSQLExtensionsSQLExtensions.UDTinDebugSQLExtensions.UDT.dll'
My colleague is working on bulk insert task from SSIS and since the data file does not contain any valid delimeter one of the suggestion he got is to use a file format to address the issue. Thus a bcp command is used to generate the format file, as per below.
The file file format was generated, from the data flow we added the BULK INSERT task and set the properties accordingly including the File Format and location of the file. Upon running the task itself we encountered the error as per below.
[Bulk Insert Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot bulk load. The file "C:HFISTAT.fmt" does not exist.".
Progress: The Bulk Insert task is completed. - 100 percent complete
Task Bulk Insert Task failed
Have checked the file and it is in C: drive and it is not protected or read-only. Validated the output file and it is as per expected. Any help would be appreciated very much.
I need to only receive files via ftp when the file does not exist on my local machine. FIles are being added to the remote location on a weekly basis and they are being downloaded locally. I do not want to download all the files each time. Instead, just download what was not already downloaded. Is there a way to do this? I want to do this using SSIS / ftp task.
I have just downloaded an evaluation version of SQL server from the microsoft website and installed it in my PC.
Now I want to create file data source.
I followed these steps: -From the control panel, ODBC datasource admin -click the DSN tab -click the add button -select the sql server driver, enter the data source file name -enter "local" in the server text box as I installed the sql server in my standalone PC. -click next After that I had this error. "Connection failed. SQL server does not exist or access denied."
But The sql server service is running.
Can anyone help me where did my configuration go wrong?? Thanks...
I created a simple SSIS package that takes a Flat File Source (CSV file) and Imports it into a OLE DB Destination ([TestCSVImport].dbo.Table1). I have other CSV files I'd like to import, but I don't want to import entries where column "ordereID" (PK) are the equal. Just want to import the new data found in the CSV files. I tried adding a Lookup in-between the Flat File Source and the OLE DB Destination, but I'm not sure how to accomplish only importing new data.
As you can see Col1 & Col2 ONLY do not make up the PK. I need to include Col3 as well. My concern is I am not sure if I have a row like.. 1...........2.......A......X reapeated lower down the order. So how do I figure the PK out?
