Flat File Random Import Error With Ole Db Destination Object
Mar 12, 2008
Hello,
I get errors during import process from flat files to sql table (random missing rows) when I have more files to load through a "for each loop" cycle.
If one of the files is not present (because not yet generated by an other process) many of the rows present in the next file are skipped during import operation. This happens even if the "maximumErrorCount" is set to 10000.
The error reported is Warning: 0x8020200F at Import File Bolle , Source_Bolle [1]: There is a partial row at the end of the file
Sql 2005 has Service Pack 2 installed.
Can some one help me?
Thanks and regards
I m using SSIS and i am transfering the data from Flat File Source to the OLE DB destination File. The source file contain some corrupt data which i am transfering to the other Flat file destination file.
Debugging is succesful but i am not getting any error output in the Flat file destination file.
i had done exactly which is written in the msdn tutorial of SSIS.
Plz tell me why i am not getting the error output in the destination flat file?
I am testing SSIS and have created a Flat File Destination. I defined the Flat File Connection as New for the first time and it worked fine. Now, I would like to go back and modify the Flat File Connection in the Flat File Destination Editor, but it allows only to create a New connection rather allowing me to edit the existing one. For testing, I can go back and create a new connection, but if my connection had 50-100 columns then it would be an issue to re-create it from scratch.
I am transferring data from an OLEDB source to a Flat File Destination and I want the column width for all of the output columns to 30 (max width amongst the columns selected), but that is not refected in the Fixed Width Flat File that got created. The outputcolumnwidth seems to be the same as the inputcolumnwidth. Is there any other setting that I am possibly missing or is this a possible defect?
I'm trying to do a simple flat file import of a .csv file. The task keeps failing on me and I get the following error
Error: 0xC0047021 at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: Thread "WorkThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0047039
I looked up the error codes and the only information I can find is that a thread is failing. What would cause this and how can I fix it? I can open the same file in Excel without any problems. I'd really appreciate any insight that anyone has to offer.
The import from Flat File Source fails: Error 0xc02020a1: Data Flow Task 1: Data conversion failed.
The data conversion for column "ArticleName" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.". (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
I have changed the size of the column "ArticleName" (varchar) to max but the error comes up again.
The data i want to import came with multiple flat files. They all could import properly but this one is a problem.
We have a flat file import proces which imports data from a series of unicode flat files.
The files have text qualifiers and are being imported to a table with the following format: CREATE TABLE [dsa].[OBS]( [Kundenummer] [nvarchar](10) NULL, [Navn] [nvarchar](60) NULL, [Adresse] [nvarchar](50) NULL, [PostnrBynavn] [nvarchar](50) NULL, [Kursusdato] [datetime] NULL, [Varighed] [decimal](18, 2) NULL, [Kursustype] [nvarchar](100) NULL, [Risikokoder] [nvarchar](50) NULL ) ON [PRIMARY]
In one of our files we have two rows that looks like this: "19298529";"THIS IS ROW 1";"ADDRESS 9 -13";"4200 SLAGELSE";"02-05-2006";8.00;"Kombikursus Førstehjælp - Brand 8 lek.";"37" "19448242";"THIS IS ROW 2";"ADDRESS 50";"4140 BORUP";"04-05-2006";4.00;""Fra vil selv - til kan selv". Om børn 1 - 3 år";"22"
Both rows are OK according to the format, but the second row actually contains the text qualifier in one of the qualified fields (""Fra vil selv - til kan selv". Om børn 1 - 3 år"). It's the title of a course with a comment. The proces fails on this file, and wont even redirect the row, as it does on other erroneous rows in other files we import.
We believe this is a valid text, but apparently SSIS doesn't Is this a bug or is this record not allowed? Is there a work around, and why wont SSIS redirect the row?
We believe the reason is that the field before is not text quaified (which is of course specified in the connection manager).
I have a text file that come from our client that is Column deliminated by ~ and row deliminated by {CR}{LF}. There is a comment field that appearently is not cleaned up and has {CR}{LF} within the comment field.
I am new to SSIS and I'm wondering if there is a way to detect and correct the bad rows?
example file formet:
ORDERID~DATE~Comment~Address 1~2/3/2007~Some Comment~1234 oak st 2~2/3/2007~Some messed up comment~345 oak st. 3~2/3/2007~Another comment~3214 asdf blvd.
Problem: ColA (Source) Rounding error to PARTY_NO (Destination) I have a field of text of in a flat file that the flat file connection manager Source picks up correctly 70000893? However when it gets the OLE DB Connection Destination the data has changed to 70000896. Thats before its even Written to the database. The only clue that something is wrong in the middle is the great Data viewer shows the number as 7.000009E+07 Other clues looking at the data it appears there is a rounding error on only the number that dont end in 00 ColA (Source) PARTY_NO (Destination) 71167300 71167296 70329000 70329000 70410000 70410000 Any ideas people? Thanks in advance Dave
Need to know how I can get the dynamic filename created in the FlatFile destination for insert into a package audit table?
Scenario: Have created a package that successfully outputs Dynamiclly named flat files { Format: C:Test’Comms_File_’ + ‘User::FileNumber’+’_’+Date +’.txt’
E.g.: Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt etc} using Foreach Loop Container :
* Enumerator Set to: “Foreach ADO Enumerator” with the ADO object source variable selected to identify how many total loop iterations there are i.e. Let’s say 4 thus 4 files to be created
*Variable Mappings : added the User::FileNumber – indicates which file number current loop iteration is i.e. 1,2,3,4
For the DataFlow task have a OLDBSource and a FlatFile Destination where Flat File ConnectionString is set up as:
I am running my package in sql server 2012, in which i am giving network path for flat file destination. And its working fine. But if i give m local path, its giving me error " cannot open data file" ...
1. Flat File Source 2. Conditional Split, Case Good = !ISNULL(KEY) Case Error = ISNULL(KEY) 3. Case Good -> Writes to Good Flat File (with timestamp in the title) 4. Case Error -> Writes to Error Flat File (with timestamp in the title)
Most job runs have no errors but the error file is created as a zero byte file anyway. If there are no error records I don't want the error file created. How might I accomplish this?
I am using SSIS to create a weekly data extraction that will be emailed to an external agency. I can extract the data, create the file and email it without any problems but I want to compress and encrypt it before I send to give some measure of protection to sensitive data it would contain.
If I did this manually, I would simply use Winzip to compress and encrypt the file to be sent. How can I achieve a similar result programtically?
I have created a package and when i was trying to configure a flat file destination, i am getting the following error:
===================================
The component could not be added to the Data Flow task. Could not initialize the component. There is a potential problem in the ProvideComponentProperties method. (Microsoft Visual Studio)

Say I am going to write to a different Flat File for every product. So if there are 10 products in the data. There should be 10 Flat Files. Also the file name should include the Product Name And Product ID.
It is being done in a single Data Flow Task.
Right now the Property Expression for the File Name is which is not working)
I have a situation where a tab limited text file is used to populate a sql server table.
The tab limited text file comes from a third party vendor. There are fixed number of columns we need to export to the sql server table. However the third party may add colums in the text file. Whenenver the text file has an added column (which we dont need to import) the build fails since the flat file connection manager does not create the metadata for it again. The problem goes away where I press the button "Reset Columns" since it builds the metadata then. Since we need to build the tables everyday we cannot automate it using SSIS because the metadata does not change automatically. Is there a way out in SSIS?
i am trying to load almost 15 csv files to my oledb destination can i use for each container to map the source columns dynamically to destination table during data flow task
I have a database app, and we're implementing various data export features using SSIS.
Basically, it's a couple of straight extracts of various recordsets/views, etc. to CSV (flat files) from our SQL Server 2005 database, so I'm creating an SSIS package for each of these datasets.
So far, so good, but my problem comes here: My requirements call for users to select from a list of available columns the fields that they want to include in their exported file. Then, the package should run, but only output the columns specified by the user.
Does anyone have any idea as to the best way to accomplish this? To recap, at design time, I know which columns the users will have to choose from, but at run time, they will specify the columns to export to the flat file.
Dynamically load a flat file from a dynamic source table-
The source table metadata is known via the SYSOBJECTS and SYSCOLUMNS tables- I can pull the column names, type and lengths from these tables based on the table name. (my goal is pretty simple- pull data from a table in our database, and save it down to a flat file)
Would this be enough to dynamically create the destination flat file? If so, how do I do it?
I have a dataflow task with two components: OLE DB source --> Flat File destination
In the OLE DB source, I am accessing a view, not a table.
However, when I attempt to map the view's input columns to the flat file destination columns, the screen is completely blank. There's none of the usual drop downs that let you select the column name, nor can I drag and drop the input column from the upper pane to the lower pane.
Attempting to write to a flat file, I get the following Warning then Errors:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: 0x80070005 at Data Flow Task, Detail to dat File Writer [54]: Access is denied.
Error: 0xC020200E at Data Flow Task, Detail to dat File Writer [54]: Cannot open the datafile "DetailOutWhat_1.dat".
Error: 0xC004701A at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: component "Detail to dat File Writer" (54) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC020200E. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There should be no reason that this project can't open DetailOutWhat_1.dat, as it has successfully done it earlier today...

Currently we're working on an SSIS package to extract data from a SQL Server database to several fixed width flat files.
Some of the data needs to be formatted/converted in a certain way DateTimes need to be formatted in ISO8601Booleans need to be 0/1 instead of False/True...Has anybody any idea what the preferred approach (best practice) would be to do these conversions?Convert everything in the select query? What about readability of your query? Do it somewhere in the package? If so, how?....
I am trying to use a conditional split task so that I can check for specific fields. If the value doesn't exist I am piping the records to a derived field task, where I add an error. I then try to send these records to a flat file destination so that I can keep track of them. However, when I execute the SSIS data flow task I get the following error
[Log Invalid Records [5496]] Warning: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
This file isn't being used by any other process as far as I can tell, and the only process using it is the SSIS task trying to write to it.
If anyone has any ideas, then I would really really appreciate it
Hello Everyone, Please do inform me, how can I check if there is a new record or changed record from the source.
NOTE: my source is Flat File and destination is Oracle Table.
What is needed from my side is the history load (Type 2). This is not possible thru SCD component in Integration Services, If my source is Oracle (Even after I had added the parameters in my OLE DB) Please do inform me about this process. Very important.
I'm unable to figure out how to write a column header to my flat file destination. My source is a OLE DB SQL query and I need the column names as a header row in my text file destination. This seems easy but the closet I can find is hardcoding the column header row in the header property. Is this the only option?
I need to create a number of flat files, all with the same layout and sourced from the the same table, but with different criteria.
The first set of (three) flat files file is created out of a simple Conditional Split transformation: If Source Table row number > 40,000 route to File 3; if row number > 20,000, route to file 2, otherwise route to file 1. This gives me 20,000 rows in files 1 & 2 and the remainder in file 3.
I also want to create a fourth flat file by joining the Source Table with a sample table and selecting only those rows where the Customer numbers match. I'm currently doing this in two stages: An Execute SQL Task performs the join and inserts the selected rows into a Destination table (identical layout to source table), and then a simple data flow moves the rows from the Destination table into the fourth flat file.
My problem is that the order of the columns in the first three flat files is different from the fourth file. I've tried creating the fourth flat file with a single data flow using a Merge Join transformation which didn't work because the tables aren't sorted in the correct sequence, and I couldn't get an OLE DB Command transformation to work either.
I'm not sure why the column order of the 4th file should be different seeing as how its contents are sourced from the same Source table, but is there a cunning way of setting this up so that the columns end up in the same order?
I am using a data flow task, and outputting the results from the ole db source adapter to a flat file by calling a function. That part works fine.
However, I want the text fields to be surrounded by double-quotes, like so:
"data1", "data2", "data3"
However, what I'm getting is:
"data1 ","data2 ","data3 "
I tried both specifying a "text qualifier" and when that didn't work, I removed the text qualifier and put quotes around the columns in my select statement. But that didn't work either.
Now, i have a SQL Server database called "EmployeeDB" which has 2 tables "TblEmp1", "TblEmp2". The Table is like this.
TblEmp1 : Columns EmpName EmpDept EmpjoinDate
TblEmp2 : Columns EName EDate Edept
using integration services (SSIS) i need code(vb.net or c#) to Create a dtsx package so that i can push the flat file content to these 2 tables. And the condition is :
After Executing the package Data loaded in TblEmp1 should be like this
Now, i know that we need to do like this in wizard 1) Create a flat file source component. 2) Create flat file connection and set the properties of flat file (delimeters and other things) 3) Create a Multicast Component. 4) Create a Path between Flat file source and Multicast. 5) Create 2 destination component(each for a table). 6) Create path from multicast to 2 destination components 7) Create a OledbConnection and set table names for 2 destination components.. 7) Now,i have to do mapping for destination1.8) Now, i have to do mapping for destination2( this mapping will be different from mapping done for destination1 because iam not inserting the data in the same order in which iam doing for TBLEmp1.
I have done it in wizard.I need to do it through code and i know that its not complicated.Please find the attached file with this mail.i have attached a screen shot of how i have done in wizard.The main problem is Mapping differently for 2 destinations from source.for 1st one we can have a forloop for mapping.but for 2nd one iam confused!!
I have a flat file destination that Im sending data to, from an OLE DB data source. There are two records, but for some reason they are both going on the same line in the output. This is after setting the output to fixed width, from comma delimited.
