INPUT:
A table contains 2 columns with data i need. column A=Filename and column B=FileContent
PROCESS:
I need to loop through ea record in the table and retrieve columns A and B. Then for ea column i need to write the Content hold in column B into File hold in column A.
I so far found out, that i need a Execute SQL Task in Control Flow querying the table and get columns A and B into 2 variables, plus a 3rd var holding the object. Then the output goes into a Foreach Loop Container. From this point i don't know how to continue. I tried to put a Data Flow Task inside the Foreach Loop, but couldn't find out how i now get the 2 variables to the Data Flow Task and use them to for the file to be written and the content to be placed in the file.
Is there any example similiar to that so i could learn how to start on that?
I have no "Foreach File Enumerator" oprtion in the Enumerator Property of the Foreach Loop Component.
I have this enumerator in the c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSForEachEnumerators folder.
Also I check it in the GAC - it does not here. I try to execute gacutil.exe -iF ForEachFileEnumerator.dll, but it is failed with "Failure adding assembly to the cache: The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest." Seems it is not managed enumerator.
Please help me.
Also information on how to regeister unmanaged enumerators are welcome!
Any easy way for a batch file or automated process to read from one db and table and what ever entry is missing out of another database + table it writes those missing entries to.
This is a simple table in one db that is filled with usernames, I want to see if there are missing usernames in another db and table and write those entries.
db1.usr_table.usr_name = jdoenew If jdoenew is missing in the 2nd db I will need to write entries like: db1.usr_table.usr_name = jdoenew db1.usr_table.password = tmppassword db1.usr_table.active = 1
I'm importing logs from multiple servers from CSV format into a table. Inside the loop the 1st thing I do is insert the FileName into a table to ensure that I never process the same file twice.
The problem is that multiple servers produce the same filename, so if server A produces Log20061110.csv - when I import the log from server B ( also called Log20061110.csv ) into the table, it of course runs into a problem.
If there was some way for me to get an MD5 Hash of the file as a variable that would be solve my problem.
I want to set up a Foreach loop container to loop through several flat files. I have a connection manager set up for individual flat files. The metadata for the files is all the same. They are fixed width files, and contain sixty five columns.
I didn't see a place in the container properties to configure the metadata of the files. How can a Foreach Loop Container 'know' the metadata of the flat files that I want to loop through?
I have a Foreeach loop container that is looking for all the files in a specified directory. For each file in the directory I need to open the file, extract the contents, and pass the contents as a variable for a stored procedure call.
I was able to loop thru the files in the directory and see each file and store the name to a variable.
I was able to use an XML task to open one file via a file connection that connects to a specified file and store the contents in a variable and then execute the SQL task using the variable.
What I am unable to figure out is how to put the two processes together and get the XML task to open the file by using the variable that contains the filename. If anyone could help I would really appreciate it.
In my SSIS package I am using Foreach loopcontainer to load multiple flat files.
Now my requirement is that I want to load only those file which contains %vendor%.In source folder I have many files but I am interested in to load only those file which contains the string %vendor% in file name.
In my Control Flow, I execute a data flow that opens a flat file and populates the file into a recordset.
Back to my Control Flow, I have a ForEach container that uses a ForEach ADO Enumerator. Inside the ForEach, I execute an "Execute SQL Task" that updates a table.
This is where I'm confused, while in the ForEach, I also want to call a Data Flow and use the current record (record in my ForEach) and perform several lookup tasks. Unfortunately, I'm now sure how to use the ForEach record as a source in my Data Flow....What am I missing?
How is foreach loop container - foreach ADO enumerator performace in SSIS package compares to use of cursors in stored procedures
Is there any articles comparing them
I understand a lot of factors can affect the performance, however what is expected performance for the foreach ADO enumerator loop for large dataset. What is Microsoft recommendation for that - recommended - not recommended (using large datasets - over million records)
I am trying to build a Package that selects a list of Uniqueidentifiers by "Execute SQL-Task" and then loops through the ResultSet of the query using ADO.Net Enumerator to do something with this GUID Value, namely deleting all entrys with this PK in a different DataBase.
The main Problem I am facing is that you cant select the type "GUID" for a user Variable in "Execute SQL-Task". All the Datatypes are there except for GUID!
This leads to the following error:
Error: 0xC001F009 at Package: The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::ImagicID" differs from the current variable type. Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object.
Is this a bug? Or am I doing something terribly wrong?
Hi, I am attempting to create SSIS packages to extract data from our AS/400 DB2 databases and populate tables for analysis and reporting in SQLServer. We have recently installed a new 2005 SQL Server to replace our existing 2000 databases. I have several DTS packages setup to connect to the 400s and copy the needed data to SQL2000 and these work great but do not transition to SSIS very well. I can get my SSIS packages to work if I create a seperate data flow task for each table but that does not seem appropriate for a tool like SSIS. I would think that what I am attempting is a very common thing to do. Maybe other enumerators could be used but I have not been able to get it to work.
I am trying to use a foreach loop, currently with a forech item enumerator, to first truncate the table on the SQL Server database using an Execute SQL task, and the to use a Data Flow task to refresh the data using an ole db source and destination. I have the truncate portion working, but when I try to setup the Ole db source using a variable it tells me I have no input columns. I have a variable from the forech loop that loops through the table names, this variable is used in a second variable which is set to EvaluateAsExpression with the expression set to the follwoing: "select * from " + @table_name
I have set delayvalidation to true and validateexternalmetadata to false. What do I do in order to get around this issue? Also, how should the old db destination be set so that it load the data into the table specified in the variable?
Getting Access Denied To FileName Error When Using the Execute Sql Task (With File Connection) into a Foreach Loop Container.
Please Note :
I have a folder containing .sql files. I have to dynamically loop through the files and send them as a File connection Folder to the Execute Sql Task.
When I run this Package I am getting the follwoing error :
[Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Access to the path 'C:ProjectsFuzzy Lookup DataFlow ExampleScripts' is denied.".
Also I have logged in to the machine as Administrator and to Sql Server with sa.
I have a package that runs fine by itself. But when I run it inside a Foreach Loop container on a parent package, I got a buffer error after a few loops. Here are a couple of the error lines:
A buffer failed while allocating 49085616 bytes.
The attempt to add a row to the Data Flow task buffer failed with error code 0x8007000E.
I already played around with the Data Flow tasks DefaultBufferMaxRows and DefaultBufferSize properties, and I am still getting the error. Just wondering if there is a memory leak or something with the Foreach Loop task. I havent install SP1. Maybe SP1 fixes this issue?
I am looking for the best way in SSIS to do the following. I have an SQL table that for each row in the table I want to take an element from the table do a lookup in a Teredata Table, return information from the teredata source. Use that returned data to do some calculations and create a derived column from my calculations and place the data into the same SQL table that I am parsing through.
I come before you seeking assistance on a package that basically flows very much like the "Table Driven foreach Loops" example provided by Kirk Haselden at http://sqljunkies.com/WebLog/knight_reign/archive/2005/03/25/9588.aspx

In order to update an Oracle table target from a SQL Server table source I need to use a Foreach Loop Container, so I can loop on the rows of the SQL Server table source. This source table has two columns: the old identifier to update and the new identifier to apply. I must use the value of the old identifier to filter the Oracle rows to update, while the new identifier is the new value to assign to the filtered old identifier.
I already know how to use the Foreach Loop Container when it is necessary to loop on an unique column of a table/view (using an object variable, using a Foreach ADO enumerator, etc.), but I need to loop on two columns.
I need to export data from a table of SQL server 2000 database, into an Excel 2000 sheet. I tried following query from the sql query analyzer
Code SnippetSELECT * INTO [Excel 4.0;Database=F:ew.xls].[sheet1] FROM tab1
It gave me following error
Code SnippetServer: Msg 2760, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Specified owner name 'Excel 4.0;Database=F:ew.xls' either does not exist or you do not have permission to use it.
The F:ew.xls file is present and it has no additional security applied, hence I think it should be writable.
Please tell me where am I doing wrong.
I don't know if this is the correct news group or not. Let me know if I have to post to some other news group.
Hi, we're trying to read from a table and write back to the same table and are having a lot of trouble with blocking. What could we do to prevent our application from hanging due to blocking of this type?
I want to check a table to see what rows have been updated today, then write to a text file some data from the selected rows; then I want to automate this (DTS package? TSQL stored procedure job?) to run every night at midnight. Is the DTS Wizard the best way, that's what I did, but have not confirmed that it is writing a new text file every day, and does each new version write over the old one?
Is there a way to get the last read/write time of a table?
I want to have a few tables, but only allow them to exist if they have been used in the last 30 days. I want to set up a "purge" job to clear out any tables that have not been used in 30 days.
Hai Everbody, for me in my project i want to read data from a csv file and insert it in a sql server databse table.The csv file may contain n number of columns,but i want only certain columns from that, and insert it in the database table.How to achieve this. Plz help me it is urgent. Thanks in advance. Thanks and regards Biju.S.G
Hello All Just wondered if someone could help me with a bit of T-SQL, i have a application in ASP.NET/VB that allows the user to update a message board by clicking a button "update" this in turn triggers my Stored Procedure for inserting this data into a table, which works great. It inserts the data into its respective fields and also takes The Title, Line 1, Line 2 and so on and creates a XML file (Using FOR XML) which is stored in the same Table under a column call XML_Data. Which again works great. My problem now is how do i output this XML_Data to an actual XML file that is on my local machine, i.e. It be created in say C:Inetpubwwwrootxmlfiles("xml file name inserted here from another column that holds xml file name").xml Any help on this would be greatfully apreciated Thanks In Advance Neil
I was wondering if it is possible to read image data from a database in .net compact framework. Since cf does not have image.fromstream(memstream) to work with, I don't know how else to read the image from the database and then place it into a picturebox.
Here is the code I have been trying out:
Dim Img As Image ' Dim conn As New SqlCeConnection("Data Source = My Documents est2.sdf")
conn.Open()
Dim sql As String = "SELECT * FROM Dater" Dim cmd As New SqlCeCommand(sql, conn) Dim reader As SqlCeDataReader = _ cmd.ExecuteReader(System.Data.CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)
While reader.Read()
TextBox1.Text = reader.Item("name") Dim b(reader.GetBytes(1, 0, Nothing, 0, Integer.MaxValue) - 1) As Byte
reader.GetBytes(1, 0, b, 0, b.Length) Dim ms As New System.IO.MemoryStream(b) Dim bmp As New Bitmap(ms) <-Error: Value does not fall within expected range Img = bmp
End While
PictureBox2.Image = Img
I get an error ,Value does not fall within expected range.
Does this mean the image was not save correctly in the database?
I've a dataflow task on For Each Loop container at control flow of SSIS package. This For Each Loop container reads the CSV files from the specified location one by one, and populates a variable with current file name. Note, the tables where I would like to push the data from each CSV file are also having the same names as CSV file names.On the dataflow task, I've Flat File component as a source, this component uses the above variable to read the data of a particular file.
Now, here my question comes, how can I move the data to destination, SQL table, using the same variable name?I've tried to setup the OLE DB destination component dynamically but it executes well only for first time. It does not change the mappings as per the columns of the second CSV file. There're around 50 CSV files, each has different set off columns in it. These files needs to be migrated to SQL tables using the optimum way.
Which is the best way to setup the Dataflow task for this requirement?Also, I cannot use Bulk insert task here as we would like to keep a log of corrupted rows.
Hi,I have a web app, that runs fine, except for one particular section that uses a class called by an event in the code behind. The class resides as a dll in the bin folder. We had no problems during testing, when only one user was running this dll. Problems soon occurred when multiple users tried running it. Here's the error & stack: 06/02/2007 09:25:26 ==> cburns ==> There is already an open DataReader associated with this Command which must be closed first. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnectionTds.ValidateConnectionForExecute(SqlCommand command) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.ValidateConnectionForExecute(String method, SqlCommand command) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ValidateCommand(String method, Boolean async) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReader(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, String method, DbAsyncResult result) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReader(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, String method) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior behavior, String method) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteReader() at ESP.Validator.Data.DatabaseEvents.DatabaseEventManager.Read(IEventable eventObject, Int16 eventType, DateTime earliestDate, DateTime latestDate) in C:My PathValidatorValidator.NETDataDatabaseEventsDatabaseEventManager.cs:line 92 at ESP.Validator.Data.Translink.CATCard.GetDespatchDate() in C:My PathProjectsValidatorValidator.NETDataTranslinkCATCard.cs:line 94 at ESP.Validator.Data.Translink.ExistingSchemeEntitlement.ReadCards() in C:My PathProjectsValidatorValidator.NETDataTranslinkExistingSchemeEntitlement.cs:line 215 at ESP.Validator.Data.Translink.ExistingSchemeEntitlement.Read() in C:My PathProjectsValidatorValidator.NETDataTranslinkExistingSchemeEntitlement.cs:line 147 at ESP.Validator.Data.Translink.TranslinkApplicant.ReadEntitlements() in C:My PathProjectsValidatorValidator.NETDataTranslinkTranslinkApplicant.cs:line 369 at ESP.Validator.Data.Translink.TranslinkApplicant.Read() in C:My PathProjectsValidatorValidator.NETDataTranslinkTranslinkApplicant.cs:line 353 at ESP.Validator.Data.Translink.PrePrintedLetter.Read() in C:My PathProjectsValidatorValidator.NETDataTranslinkPrePrintedLetter.cs:line 282 at ESP.Validator.ValidationProcessor.Read(ValidationSubject subject) in C:My PathProjectsValidatorValidator.NETValidationProcessor.cs:line 82 at clear_applications_scan_applications.ProcessValidation() It seems the data reader is getting reused. We have ensured after each read the reader is closed. Though all users are using the same connection string. Could it be a connection pool problem, with the connection being overwritten during execution? Should i edit it according to the users logon?I am really at a loss for ideas, and I don't mind admitting I am a bit out of my depth with this one!! Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
