I have a package that runs. Inside the package I want to see if a specific table exists. If it does, I go to the next step inside the package. If it does not, I want to exit that package without errors or even warnings.
We have a vendor who has an SSIS package that executes a DTS package. We've asked that they migrate the DTS code completely to SSIS, but that is something that will not be done in the near future. The package is scheduled to run every 5 minutes through a SQL Server scheduled job. 95% of the time the package executes without an error, but occassionally the following error is reported.
Date 10/2/2007 7:35:00 AM Log Job History (Pyxis - Data Load)
Step ID 1 Server DEVSQL1V5 Job Name Pyxis - Data Load Step Name Run SSIS Package Duration 00:00:03 Sql Severity 0 Sql Message ID 0 Operator Emailed Operator Net sent Operator Paged Retries Attempted 0
Message Executed as user: Domain_NameSQLService. The return value was unknown. The process exit code was -1073741819. The step failed.
When I look at the DTS and SSIS package logs no errors are reported and each log indicates the package completed successfully.
Any ideas what this exit code is indicating or how to further troubleshoot the problem?
My question is fairly simple. When I join between two tables, I always use the ON syntax. For example:
SELECT
* FROM
Users
JOIN UserRoles
ON (Users.UserRoleId = UserRoles.UserRoleId)
No problems there. However, if I then decide to further filter the selection based on some trait of the UserRole, I have two options: I can add the condition as a WHERE statement, or I can add the condition within the ON block.
--Version 1:
SELECT
* FROM
Users
JOIN UserRoles
ON (Users.UserRoleId = UserRoles.UserRoleId) WHERE
UserRoles.Active = 'TRUE'
-- Version 2
SELECT
* FROM
Users
JOIN UserRoles
ON (Users.UserRoleId = UserRoles.UserRoleId
AND UserRoles.Active = 'TRUE')
So, the question is, which is faster/better, if either? The Query Analyzer shows the two queries have the exact same execution plan, which makes sense, since they're both joining the same tables. However, I'm wondering if adding the condition in the ON statement results in fewer rows the JOIN statement initially needs to join up, thus reducing the overall initial size of the results table before the WHERE conditions are applied.
So is there a difference, performance wise? I imagine that if Users had a thousand records, and UserRoles had 10 records, then the JOIN would create a cartesian product of the two tables, resulting in 10,000 records in the table before the WHERE conditions are applied. However, if only three of the UserRoles is set to Active, would that mean that the resulting table, before applying WHERE conditions, would only contain 3000 records?
any keyword for exit SP? like the exit sub.. which stop the Sp from next statement if one condition occured? like : if NOT exists (select blabla) exit SP execution else (blablaba)
I have a package that goes out and picks up a file off of a ftp server using the ftp task. How do I force the package to stop running if the file is not there?
When I exit out of Query Analyzer - it hangs and gives the following error message in Event logger Hanging application isqlw.exe, version 2000.80.760.0, hang module hungapp, version 0.0.0.0, hang address 0x00000000.
I have a job that has several steps. One of the steps is of type T-SQL. I have an IF...ELSE block in it. If the if statement is true...perform an action. Else exit from the job reporting failure.
I would like to know what sql stmts should i use to exit from the job (in the ELSE block) I tried to use EXIT in the else stmt but it is not exiting from the job step.
As part of our application deployment we have wrapped and automated the SQL Server Express install by launching the setup.exe with our parameters and waiting around for the process to exit.
I had been checking for a Exit Code != 0 to detect errors returned by setup.exe but this does not appear to be foolproof. Several customers' deployments have returned non-zero exit codes, but SQL Express seems to be successfully installed.
I have not found a reference of possible codes returned and their meaning that I could use to fine tune our checking. Does one exist? Or am I going about this the wrong way and should just check for the existence of our instance after setup is complete?
Folks, I have a SSIS package that works 3 out of 4 times but it does fail occasionally with the following error.
The return value was unknown. The process exit code was 128. The step failed. I have logging enabled ..but mysteriously the log has no information on the failure..
I am running a Sql Server 2005 job and this job is having 25 steps. Each step is calling the .dtsx packae from D: drive location. While running the job i found this error
"The return value was unknown. The process exit code was 128. The step failed."
This error occurs not for any perticular step. It occurs randomally at any step.
I am running this job on 1. Windows 2003 server with SP2 2. Sql Server 2005 (Developer Edition) with SP2
Can any one please help me out resolving this issue.
I have a SSIS package which contains For Loop Container. when a task in the for loop container fails iam setting loop value to 0, even though iam not able to exit the loop. can some help me
Note: when ever the a task in the Loop fails the loop should stop and package should stop.
I have a foreach loop that is processing files in a directory. One of the tasks is the execute sql task that calls a stored proc. If this stored proc returns a certain value then I need to exit the loop and not process any more files. But I have been unable to figure out how to make this happen.
Using nested cursors, I want to exit the outer cursor, all inner cursors have been closed.
??Where do I add the... ---------- if @c1 > 1000 break else continue ----------
Do I add it at the beginning of my cursor???? --------- begin ---------- open cur fetch next... from into.... while @@fetch_status = 0 begin if @c1 > 1000 break else continue
open cur
fetch next.... from into....
do some business nested inner cursors..... set @c1 = @c1 + 1 -- increment the counter... fetch next... from into.... end close cur deallocate cur --------- end ---------- Will the 'break' take be to my end?
TIA

How do I configure the database so that it will send an alert to all users who are logged in and using SQL*Server, when I need them all to get out of the database ??? Or, what do I need to look up in the documentation ??? I have looked under SQL*Mail, but that doesn't look like it will work for what I am trying to do. Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Nancy
I come from an Access/VB background where in an error trapping routine or testing for an error your statement "exit sub" ended the process. WHen using a stored procedure and you come across an error what is the best method to exit/end the stored proc?
I have install same copy for database server at two windows 2000 server box with SP4.
I have been connected both server on LAN and replicate our required data from one to another. It's working fine.
In actual implementation both server would be connected via ISDN Dialup
Total distance between two server is maximum 40 KM.
I apply same method like lan on ISDN Dial up.
1. Given all permission equvallent to administrator to new user 2. Login by new user 3. Install database server at both end. 4. Dial by one place to another. 5. Ping each other by ip address. 6. By dialup place , I can ping new static IP address given by dial. 7. Dial in place I can ping both IP address newok card as well as new dialip IP 8. Search IP address (RAS Base)., Ping also to remote IP.
I didn’t ping physical network IP address. I can’t brows simply, I can’t ping domain name but I am able to ping remote IP.
I got error at the time of registration - 'Specify Sql server not found, Connection Open Connected()'
10. I try to user client network utility again get error as under-
Add 2nd server by client network utility at the another
Try to connect at got error- Unable to connect to server test Server msg 17 level 16 srare 1 ODBC Sql server driver [TCP/IP Socket] sql server doesn't exit
I didn't understand why I getting error in registraion of one server to another, while both can be registered to each other in LAN environment.
Let me help , I am trying to that for last 4day and night but not yet got any conclussion
I am developing a simple DB-Library program in C calling SQL Server 2000 onwindows 2003 and NT 4. I have some T-SQL code that checks for the existenceof a table and want to abort the program if the table doesn't exist. I issuea raiserror if the table doesn't exist and then call RETURN.I construct the string using sprintf and pass it dbfcnd and dbsqlexec. Sincethe commands work, there is no error to halt the execution of the program.Is there an easy, clean way to force dbsqlexec to fail? Do I need a storedprocedure to return an error code and then deal with that?Thanks for any advice,-Gary
Can someone please explain what exit code 259 means as it appears in the debug output below?

I would also appreciate hearing back from users as to why I only have two choices in my VS 2005 IDE Output window (Build and Debug). From what I've read, 'Database' should be another choice for 'Show output from:'.
My environment consists of the following:
Database:

I have verified the SQL Server connection has 'Allow SQL/CLR Debugging' enabled.

I have changed a SSIS package last week. Now, I met the problem that the package sometimes failed both in SQL agent and the BIDs.
SQL agent just give the detail: Process Exit Code -1073741819. The step failed.
In BIDs,when I Check the log,there is even no error. But the last Infomation in the output windows is the package canceled. It just like somebody stop running package manually.
The more strange thing is the package sometimes succeed with running the same data.
I wish to have a batch file exit with a return code of 3 if it fails. In the batch file I have the single command: Exit 3 On SQL Server the Process Exit Code of a successful command is set to 0.
Yet, when I run the job SQL Server says that it is successful.
Can someone tell me how i can generate an exit code (Cmdexec). Ive tried running an .exe file in a job but when i do that the job hangs. When i check the history it says the exit code is somewhere in 27000. Now i'm wondering if it is possible for me to generate an exit code if the executable closes. PS. When i run the file from a batch file it works great
I am using ActiveX Script tasks to branch out on the different tasks that I have within the DTS. When I want a particular branch of tasks not to be executed, I give a "Main = DTSStepScriptResult_DontExecuteTask"
This seems to be working fine in terms of functionality, but there is an error that is displayed saying "Task reported failure on execution".
How do I get rid of this? I need to exit the task, and still just get one message box at the end of it all that happily reads "Succesfully completed tasks"
Hi All I'm Scripting various Upgrade scripts that set up roles / users / create databases etc and want to Exit the Script unconditionally if for example the user already exists etc. I can't Use RETURN because it just jumps to the Code following the next GO statement There is also some USE [Database] Statements Is there a way to do this or am I missing something fundamental here ?
