Getting Connection Information From A DSN
May 2, 2007
I've defined a System DSN (and it works just fine for the classic ASP web site) and for a separate project I would very much like to determine what server its connecting to.
My environment is .Net 2.0.
On some boxes, the DSN is configured to connect to SQL Server "George" and on others it's configured to connect with "Carl." Both servers have a database named Lighhouse, I want to connect to another DB using the newer SQLConnection/SQLCommand objects. Which, don't support and ODBC DSN in the connection string. However, when constructing my connection string I need to connect to the same server that's defined in the DSN.
Is there a way extract the information from the DSN?

Hello
I know that the following is possible:
declare @x varbinary(128)
select @x = convert(varbinary(128), 'Some user name')
set context_info @x
Then in a trigger, you can say:
UPDATE tbl
SET who_was_kilroy = convert(varchar, p.context_info)
FROM inserted i
JOIN tbl t ON i.keycol = t.keycol
CROSS master.dbo.sysprocesses p
WHERE p.spid = @@spid
I am searching for a more generic way (varbinary 128 is not big enough) to store and access connection wide variables
Any ideas?
Regards
Klaus

Hi,
I want to make a SSIS package with Oracle and deploy it in no of oracle databases, for it every time I have to open package and change connection information.
How can I make oracle connection information as variable value so that when I deploy my package on Oracle database it will pick all oracle connection information(User Id, Pwd, Server Name) automatically.
Please let me know about this.
Thanks

We have a Main package and which is calling 2 more other packages.
The first package contains a connection and we are using a Dataflow task. The data flow task has OleDB Data source which is taking getting columns using a Stored Procedure. And the output we need to write in a Flat File.
The second Package also contains the same(The same Tasks, Database and Stored Procedure Calling)
The difference is in the stored procedure Parameters. Based on the different parameters Stored procedures returns the different Columns and Rows output.
When we are trying to Get the second package output in OleDb Data source it shows all the columns which is the output of the First Package because it stores External Meta Data.
So My understanding is the Connection to the same database keeps the External metadata information with the connection and because of that it is always getting the same output columns in Ole DB Data source task in the second Package also.
How to Get my correct output from the second package in this case?
Or If we dont want to store external Meta data with the Connection then is that possible? If yes then How?
Thanks in advance.

What is the best way to run SSIS scripts on different servers without changing connection information. Our test server is ppntt140 and our production server is ppntd110. If I create a script on server ppntt140 what can I do so I can move it to server ppntd110 without changing any connection information? Database names are the same, it is just the server that changes. What is the best way to handle this? Thanks in advance.

Hello, I am getting very frustrated! I have got a Foreach loop container which I am processing files within a folder. I have a flatfile connection manager which I have set up using a test file and have updated the expressions attribute to be the package variable I set up in the collection for the loop container however everytime I run it I get the error: 0xC0202094 cannot retrieve the column information from the flatfile connection manager. I can only guess that it is either the variable being passed to the connection manager or the way I set up the connection manager. When I msgbox the variable in a script component before the dataflow step, the variable for the file seems fine. Any suggestions are REALLY appreciated.
Yours
Jayne

I've developed a package that is working well at development machine from VS 2013 for a sample flat file. Also, over development machine, I've deployed it to SSISDB catalogue and even from there also it is running well for the same file.When the same package is deployed to production server's SSISDB catalogue database, it throws following error while processing the same sample flat file, “Unable to retrieve column information from the flat file connection manager”

Hello,
I have some troubles with IBM WebSphere Application Server using MS SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver. I always get the error e.g.
java.lang.SecurityException: class "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDatabaseMetaData"'s signer information does not match signer information of other classes in the same package
I found this Feedback but it seems to be closed.
A temporary solution for me was to delete the meta-inf directory of the JAR-File, but that can't be the solution.
Can anyone help me with this problem?

I added a connection (ADO.NET) object by name testCon in the connection manager - I wanted to programmatically supply the connection string. So I used the "Expressions" property of the connection object and set the connectionstring to one DTS variable. The idea is to supply the connection string value to the variable - so that the connection object uses my connection string.
Then I added a "Backup Database Task" to my package with the name BkpTask. Now whenever I try to set the connection property of BkpTask to the testCon connection object, by typing testCon, it automatically gets cleared. I am not able to set the connection value.
Then after spending several hours I found that this is because I have customized the connection string in testCon. If I don't customize the connection string, I am able to enter the "testCon" value in the connection property of the BkpTask.
Is this an intrinsic issue?

I have a package that uses a for loop to iterate through an unknown amount of excel files and pull their data into a table. However, there will be cases when the file is corrupted or has some sort of problem so that either the transformation will fail or the excel data source will fail with an oledb connection error.
Could anyone suggest a clean way to trap these errors? Specifically, the "Cannot Aquire Connection from Connection Manager", which is the excel connection.
Thanks,
John T

I have a report where the information is getting cut off the report.
At the beginning of or at the ending of the page it is dropping the information.
My layout setting are set 8.5in wide by 11in height. .5in for either left or right margin. 1in for top and bottom.
I run the report and I'm missing a record.
I adjust the height to 10in to force diffferent page breaks and it's there.
I have the setting in one of the groups set for a page break at end. If I uncheck that it doesn't help.Still no records.
What is going on?

Hi!This is a very simple question and I'm sure you guys will help me a lot.I'm using Visual Basic 2005 for programming. I have one table on my MS SQL 2005 database that has an int column with a counter that needs to be incremented when a user registers.So when reading the value I use a simple SQL query like this:
SELECT counter FROM companies WHERE company=0
then I store the value in a local int variable and then I increment it. Then I update the incremented value.
UPDATE companies ...
I need every single customer to have an individual value. My question is how can I prevent an error, data corruption or whatever if two or more users want to register at the same time? I've been reading about lock update but I'm not sure how to implement it on Visual Basic 2005 and I don't want to store scripts on SQL Server.
I'll appreciate your comments and help on this situation.

Hi,
I administering SQL server and one of or Db (size ~7 Gb) have a table with size 396 MB and 25 indexes created on this one. We working with this DB using Siebel Call center.
I have met a very strange situation: when I tried to get some data (using Siebel) my request take ~5 min. I run Profiler and catched this T-SQL statement which Siebel send to SQL server. After that, I run this T-SQL query using Query Analyser and found that Query Optimiser used wrong index. (clustered index) and try to compare every 470436 rows from the tables.
This is the statement. @P1, @P2, and @P3 just variable which siebel transfer to SQL server.
SELECT ........
FROM
dbo.S_EVT_ACT T1
LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.S_CONTACT T2 ON T1.TARGET_PER_ID = T2.ROW_ID
WHERE
((T1.APPT_REPT_FLG != @P1 OR T1.APPT_REPT_FLG IS NULL) AND
(T1.TEMPLATE_FLG != @P2 OR T1.TEMPLATE_FLG IS NULL)) AND
(T1.SRA_DEFECT_ID = @P3)
But I found the very strange situation - when I manualy put the value '1-FRK' instead of @P3 - Query Optimizer used RIGHT index and I had a very good performance.
And addition when I tried to run the first Query on the same table but with the only 1000 rows the Query Optimiser choose right index.
Wat's on, wat happend with My Query Optimizer? Wy his decision so different from time to time?
Thank's a lot for any information about how to make Optimiser obedient.

I just started at a new company. The security stinks, everyone logs into the servers as sa (including many applications). I am taking steps to tighten security and restrict access to the sa login. I would like to capture some additional information at logon as an interim measure.
Can anyone assist me in automatically recording the following:
Host Name / IP Address
Login time
I realize I could periodically run an sp_who2 and capture the results - I also realize that if I turn on auditing, the logon will be written to the SQL Srvr LOG - I'm looking for an elegant / low impact way to capture the logon and host information.
Thanks in advance for any help.

We just started using SQL Server. I'm new on the SQL side of things. We have SQL setup in a test environment with users connecting and performing job related functions. An in house programmer has developed software for our users which connects to the SQL Server
I'm looking for information pertaining to events that have teken place within SQL. Does SQL give you details on updates and changes made to specific tables. I'm looking for some way of looking up item numbers and the user that entered the data. We have noticed that some of the users may be entering in wrong data within certain tables. And would like to educate them on what they are doing wrong.
I need to know what certain users are logging and entering into our SQL Server.
What are the most detailed logs that SQL Server provides that has information on what the users are doing has far an entering in data.
