How To Determine Package's Executing Folder?
Oct 12, 2006I should have written this down when I came across it -- but I recently saw an example of how to determine a package's currently-executing folder. Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Hi,
I have developed an SSIS package for ETL purpose. I am invoking the SSIS package through .Net console application by referencing the ManagedDTS Assembly. I am able to execute the package in Sql Server 2005 Developer Edition and it runs fine till completion.
But when i try to execute the packahe in Sql Server 2005 Standard edition, by invoking the package through .Net console application the status of the package is failure.
Can any one help me how to over come this problem.
Hi,
I am planning to develop a single package that will download files from ftp server, move the files to internal file server and upload it in the database. But I want to run this package for multiple ftp file providers. For each provider the ftp server might be different and the transformation to upload the files into a database table might be different.
So can I create a single package and then multiple configuration files (xml), which will contain the details fo the ftp file providers and then pass the xml file as a parameter while executing the package. The reason being that the timings of fetching the files is different for each ftp file provider and hence cannot be combined into one.
Is this possible?
Thanks for your help.

I would like to fetch the data flow component name while package is executing. Since system variable named [System::SourceName] only fetches name of the control flow tasks? Is there a way to capture them?
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi all,
My SSIS packages seems to run well in test environment.They are scheduled to run as jobs on a daily basis on the
production system.Most of the days they run well,but somedays they keep running and never end,till we manually kill the jobs and re run them.It's really difficult to find the cause as it does not even fill the log file.
If the package starts the first task is to fill in a table,but its not filling it,so i infer that the package has not started itself,
Did anybody of you have come across such a situation?Pls give your inputs.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

What is the proble here !!!!!!! Any help please

Hello,
I have a web application that I kick off a DTS package. I tested the package and it works fine. However, when running the package through ASP.NET, I get the following error:
Type mismatch. (mscorlib (80004005): Missing parameter does not have a default value. Parameter name: parameters)
I've traced it to a dynamic task step. I have this as the first step in the workflow, but for some reason, it is executing last. Which is definitely not the place where I want it. Is there anyway I can force it, or why is it doing that?
Any ideas?

Hi,
I am having trouble executing a package as a job in SQL Server 2005. I can run the package fine manually from sql server but when I create a job for that package and run the job I get an error that says
The package execution failed. The step failed.
I am completely lost at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

When run in query analyzer, the procedure below returns no errors however it doesn't execute the dts package I am passing to it.
The package works beautifully if you run it directly in Enterprise Manager.
Can anyone help me with a possible causes or perhaps help me improve my error trapping to help me resolve this?

Hi All,
I hav a strange problem. I created a SSIS package on my machine with protection level as "EncryptAllWithPassword".
When I deploy this package on a SQL Server on another machine (either in File System or SQL Server)and add it as a job in SQL Server Agent and try to run it through a scheduler or manually the job fails with the following message -
Executed as user:IBM-P4-1976SYSTEM. The package could not be loaded. The step failed.
However if I deploy it on my own machine the job runs successfully.
Also if I run the package using dtexec utility on the another machine it runs successfully.
It is not running as a job on another machine. All the logged in users have administrative rights. My databases are altogether on a different server.
Can any one help me out with this issue...Pleassssseeee...

Hi,
I have to execute package in a Batch. I have done adding SSIS packages to SQL Server Agent and it is working. Now, my requirement is such that, when a user clicks "Transfer to batch" button in Windows application, i have to add all the packages to batch automatically without need for user to manually open SQL Server Agent and add packages. Is there any code available to do this?
Please help!
Thanks,
hi!
I am able to run the pacakge in command line but when i try running the package through agent . The it starts the pacakge it says that it has been started by me local user and fails in next step saying that it has been execute by administrator.
I understand that there is a miss match between the permissions. Cos the SQL server Agent uses my login in but the SQL server agent on the Server that i am trying to execute has the Administrator log in. How to solve the issue?
Thanks in advance

Can someone tell me the best way to "automatically" execute a SSIS package. I have approximately 100 computers that I need to execute packages on. Here is the scenario:
I have some text files that are coming from our AS400 to a local computer (the package will NOT be used to bring files from our AS400. I will be using Client Access for that). The text files will be stored in a specified directory on the local computer. I will be importing these text files into a SQL Database on all 100 machines. Once I create the Import Package, what is the best way to execute this package on the devices?
I thought maybe after creating the package, I can put an EXE on the desktop that will execute the SSIS package. This way all I would have to do is click a icon on the desktop. I don't know if this is feasible or not. After building a package, do you make it a EXE or what? Pease advise. Thank in advance.
Hi,
I'm having another go at attempting to call an SSIS package from a web service. The Web Service is set up on the same server as the sql server and SSIS package deployment. When i attempt to run the pacage from the web service it starts and then inmediately fails. I can see this in both the Integration Service Logs and the event viewer.
If i click on the package itself and run it using the DTExecUI, it runs without a problem. No logs are output by the package when called by the web service.
Can anyone suggest anything that i could to see if i can diagnose where the problem stems from.
Many thanks in advance,

Hi,
Simplification of setup:
- SQL Server Box with Enterprise Edition of SQL Server 2005
- Workstation with the client tools (Managment Studio, Business Intelligence Studio, etc) SQL Server 2005 installed running Windows XP
1. Am I right in saying that I need to install the SSIS service in order to run this package on my workstation from the command line, the Execute Package Utility tool, or through Management Studio?
2. I can however execute the package on my workstation in the Business Intelligence Studio without the SSIS service installed, correct?
3. Assuming I need to install the SSIS service on my workstation, if I execute the package via the command line or the Execute Package Utility utility, will it run on my local machine or on the server (i.e. which gets the load)?
4. Does Service Pack 1 address these issues?
Thanks a lot for any help you could provide!

Thanks in advance.
Hi all,
I have a dts package that wil load data from excel file to sql server 2005 database tables deployed in our sql server. I have a asp.net application in my machine. I need to call execute that package from my asp.net page. i need to pass values for 2 varaibles in the package from my asp.net code based on that the package will choose the excel file to load. When i directly call the package from the server it works fine. but when i call it from the asp.net page the dts package cant access the excel file. I dont know the reason for this. please help me to solve the problem. if u still have any doubts plz let me know.

Hi again
First I explain my environment:
- SSIS Packages are stored on 64bit Server (Win 2003 64bit, SQL 2005 64bit)
- .NET (C#) application (on Win 2003 32bit Server) which loads and executes the SSIS Packages.
I can execute my SSIS Package localy on the 64bit Server and they work fine.
When I execute the SSIS Package from the Application I get following exeption:
Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {697AC67E-FDD5-46D1-90D7-F3D0DF1B2A47} failed due to the following error: 80040154. ...
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Package..ctor()
The code looks like:
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Package local_Package = new Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Package();
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.DTSExecResult local_DTSExecResult = new Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.DTSExecResult();
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application local_Application = new Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application();
local_Package = local_Application.LoadFromDtsServer("PackageName", "64bitServer", null);
local_DTSExecResult = local_Package.Execute();
Other question would be: how can I execute a package directly on the server??
I mean without "LoadPackage"?? I guess the problem on top is because on the
32bit Server there is only Framework installed but not Integration Services Tools ...
Would be happy for any comment!
Best regards

Hi,
when I run the following from the command prompt I am getting an error saying that can not set the variable Status as int.
dtexec /File "C:workSSIS PackagesDataflowControlRoom.dtsx" /SET
Package.Variables[ChannelCode].Value;"test" /SET
Package.Variables[Status].Value;1
both variables as you can see are in the top level.
the problem is that ChannelCode is string but Status is Integer.
if I take out the /SET Package.Variables[Status].Value;1 part from the command line it will work fine. I think th eproblem is down to diffenrt types of variable as there are two types of String and Interger.
any ideas on what the problem migth be.
p.s. I am runnning SQL server 2005 Dev edition (without any SP)

I created a package and stored in SQL server.
I am running it as follows
master.dbo.xp_cmdshell dtexec /sq "ABC DEF GHI" /ser "Prod"
ABC DEF GHI --> is my package name.
When i run this from a job, it runs without error
but when i run the above sql i am getting error as
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
Incorrect syntax near '/'.
Am i missing some thing, please advice. Is that the problem between spaces in the package name?
I have created for each container to call all the packages in a folder like below, also created a variable.
Then I add execute package task inside of foreach container and selected file system in a location and in connection called currently creating package name finally in connection properties i added variable in expression which i created and mapped into for each loop container. I referred below link
[URL] ....
All the packages are running but its not ending once all the packages executed its re run and continue the running process, how to stop once all the packages execute.
I have a MS Access front-end (not web) that creates a Comma Separated Values (.CSV) file. I need to dlete all records in a temp table in the SQL SERVER (2000) backend, and then import the CSV file. Once that is done, I need to open the temp table (linked from Access ODBC) for the user and let them update records.
I already created a DTS package that deletes the records in the temp table and imports the records from the CSV.
What I don't know is how to execute that existing DTS package from VBA in Access. Any ideas?
Also, once the temp table is re-populated by manually executing the DTS package, I haven't been able to figure out how to "refresh" the temp table link. If it originally had 100 records (examined via the Access link) and I manually run the DTS package to upload 50 records, when the process completes, the Access linked table is still showing 100 records. I then go into the Access linked table manager and refresh the link. It then shows 50 records, but it won't let me update them.
Any ideas on solving this multi-part problem?
