Hi,
i have a dts package file saved as "Structured storage file" (Sql server 2000), now i want to import this file into another server with rundts option or osql. I can't use sql enterprise manager or something like that but only command line tools.
How can i do this?
Thanks for advice,

I have manually imported my packages into SSIS (via StoredPackages/FileSystem/Import Package command). How can I utilize a ConfigFile with this package? I see that the ConfigFile can be selected when it is run (in dtexecUI ), but it doesn't "stick", and is only used for that particular run.
How can I point this manually imported package to the ConfigFile so everybody who runs it doesn't have to browse for the ConfigFile every time they run it?
Hello everybody...
I have a very simple SSIS package that loop throught the worksheets of an Excel file and insert the data into a SQL server 2005 table.
The SSIS is very simple and works fine the problem is that after the Package executes if I double click on the Excel file imported I have the message that the file is in use.
I think that the Excel connection manager of the package doesn't release the Excel resourse but this is only a guess..
Do am I right? If yes how can I release the resource?
Thank you very much
Marina!
I'm trying to create an import package using BIDS. I'm using SQL Server 2008. The data is saved as a .csv file so that I can use the flat file option for data source. The issue I am having is that when I preview the flat file after selecting it as the datasource, some of the data that have the numeric file format are showing up as non numeric, for instance the value -1,809,575,682,700 is being viewed as ""1 and the package is giving a conversion error.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a requirement to create many SSIS packages and no datatransform is required so the BCP task looks a good contender providing it can do both import & export
is it possible to parse the values in bold as package variables into the BCP task. If so how?
BULK INSERT ipcs_wvg.dbo.extract
FROM 'D:IPCSextract.csv'

I have a global database called ETL Configuration for all my SSIS packages that uses a single table. So I can create three global variables
USE [ETLConfiguration]
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SSIS Configurations](
[ConfigurationFilter] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[ConfiguredValue] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[PackagePath] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[ConfiguredValueType] [nvarchar](20) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
Here is the data I would put in here
ConfigurationFilter = 'MySSISPackageName'
ConfiguredValue = 'D:IPCSextract.csv'
PackagePath = 'Package.Variables[User::gsFileName].Properties[Value]'
ConfiguredValueType = 'String'
ConfigurationFilter = 'MySSISPackageName'
ConfiguredValue = 'D:ipcsqueryextract.xml'
PackagePath = 'Package.Variables[User::gsFormatFile].Properties[Value]'
ConfiguredValueType = 'String'
ConfigurationFilter = 'MySSISPackageName'
ConfiguredValue = 'ipcs_wvg.dbo.extract'
PackagePath = 'Package.Variables[User::gsTableName].Properties[Value]'
ConfiguredValueType = 'String'
--Database connection info
ConfigurationFilter = 'MySSISPackageName'
ConfiguredValue = '.mssql2005'
PackagePath = 'Package.Connections[MyDatabaseName].Properties[ServerName]'
ConfiguredValueType = 'String'
ConfigurationFilter = 'MySSISPackageName'
ConfiguredValue = 'MyDatabaseName'
PackagePath = 'Package.Connections[MyDatabaseName].Properties[InitialCatalog]'
ConfiguredValueType = 'String'
I have looked at lots of options to automaticly create SSIS packages and have a hunch that that simple can be better: All these solutions look way to complex to what I want to achieve--

Hi all,
when trying to Ãmport files to our database server from a client, I keep getting an error:

... doing the same import when logged on the server, hasn't been giving me any errors, how come. I can from my client without trouble import tables from other DB servers but when ever it is files it won't do it.
I tried as mentioned in other threads rerun setup to re-install SSIS, but as it was already installed it wouldn't re-install. My next move would be to make a clean install, but not sure it would help, as I think this is a buck.

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.

ok....im not quite the newbie to SQL but i dont pretent to be any type of guru.
i have a dts package to update my db from an access file and my problem is when i run this package it is suppsoed to wipe out the data (truncate) and replace it with the new data. It runs ok but in some cases i get duplicates and other cases the fields do not import correctly. for example, a column thats eitehr 1 or 0 and the import <nulls> everything in that column.
Is truncate the correct statement?
Hi,
We just migrated from SQL 2000 to 2005. We moved over the dts packages but they don't seem to work anymore. Do I need to do some editing to them to make them work but keep them as dts packages? What they should be doing is selecting data from a table then putting that data into an excel file. They seem to pull the data with the select statement fine but fail to insert data into the excel file. Any ideas why? Do I need to edit them since SQL 2005 works differently? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hi guys,
Here's the deal. I have a child package, (say, pack01.dtsx), which uses a dtsconfig file for its connection string, which can be called from other packages, but which also can be called by itself.
However I also have another package (say, pack02.dtsx) which uses the same dtsconfig file for its connection string. It calls on pack01.dtsx.
When I use DTEXECUI and run pack01.dtsx, specifying the proper .dtsconfig file, it goes well. But when I try and run pack02.dtsx, an error occurs saying pack01.dtsx connection cannot be established.
How do I pass the connectionstring being used by pack02 to pack01, without having to remove the configuration file setting of pack01? Can a Parent Package configuration and a configuration file try and map to the same property?
Hope someone could help. Thanks.
I'm trying to import tables and data from an Access database to a SQL Server database. I can create and run a Package from Enterprise manager that does just that. However, if I save the package as a COM file-or even if I create a new package using the import wizard and save it as a file-and then try to run the package from VB, the table schema is imported, but not the data. Any ideas? The same thing happens if I save the package in SQL Server and then try to run it from VB.
The Access database is on the server, and I'm running my code from a client.
Some of the Access tables have no data.

Hi There,
I am trying to create a DTS package that will import dbf tables. My problem is that the data was created back in the pre-dos 5 days, so to save room they took the dates and convert them to 2 characters.
Now I would like to import these tables and conver the date back. I do have a Function that I can run in FoxPro to "Unpack" these dates.
CODE
Function UnPackDate( cDate )
*!*PARAMETERS: f_datestr - Character (manditory). This should be a two
**!* byte string created with PACKDATE().
*!*
*!* RETURNS: A date from 1/1/1970 and 11/29/2126
If EMPTY(cDate)
Return {//}
Endif
Local nDate
nDate = (ASC( LEFT(cDate,1) ) * 256) + ASC( RIGHT(cDate,1))
Return ( CTOD("01/01/1970") + nDate - 8225 )
*================================================= ======================
Does anyone know how to take this function and make it work while doing an import?
Thanks

First post, new to SQL Server, the usual apologies apply ;-)
I used the Import/Export Wizard in SSIS to define a source and target for data migration. I accidentally omitted ticking off a box to force the drop and re-creation of the target table. I can't find any way to edit a package, once I've finished with the wizard! If someone would point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.

Hi, I have one package with a complex Control Flow. I need to import a dataflow from another package into it. Cut and Paste is working but it looks like my package corrupts after that. (for example, login to database has problem with authentication now)

I built a DTS Import Package to import an HTM file and it went smooth as silk. Replaced the file with another HTM Table of the same name and whammo a text field turned into an integer file and data goes missing. The first 20 or so rows of a particular column were all numbers. I tried to do a disconnected edit to alter the Source column to a string but the Edit button just disappears without changing the column's type value. The only way I can think of getting around this is to use something archiac like EDLIN to add a new table row at the top of the HTM Table with values to force the specified type. Anyone think of a better solution?

I am trying to import an XLS to a table in my database. Sounds simple, but the import should be an UPDATE, not an INSERT. In other words, I want to transfer data from the XLS sheet, to specific field in my database.
Let me explain more clearly.
I have an XLS sheet with a manager ID and a employee ID. The table in the database is already populated with all employee ID's but the field manager ID is still empty. Every employee has a different manager.
The import should place the manager ID's in the fields where the employee ID is the same as in the XLS sheet.
If somebody could please help me out, thank you!

Okay ... so here's a head-scratcher.
I have a job that moves a file to import directory where the SSIS package picks it up and processes it. 95% of the time is works flawlessly and fast.
The other 5% of the time the process fails. It appears that the file is inaccessible to SQL Server. I run it again and it works perfectly. It appears to be completely hit and miss.
The last step in the package is on-completion delete the file. When the package fails, the file (as directed) is not deleted.
I've included a snippet of the error log. I can place the log out here if it would help more.
Any ideas what could possibility going wrong? I hate inconsistent failures.

Hi,
I want to create a package to import some tables from database X from Server XYZ to database X of server ABC.
(As my X database on server XYZ is gets updating everyday so i need to update it on X of server ABC using the package.)
So i have created a package using the import export data transformationn services.
It runs fine while creating. i.e importing data for the first time. But when i have saved that SSIS package on SQL or File system and scheduled it to run daily, but if fails everytime. I am not getting the error its giving. Because everytime when i go to view history of that package it just gives me messages like step1 started by user xyz and failed.
Can you please help me to sort out this problem.
If possible give me steps which will help me to create package to run above scenario.
you can mail me the solution on abhijeets@nedbank.co.za

I have a SQL .bak generated by our existing hosting package at 1and1.com, I want to import that SQL .bak to our new hosting package at ixwebhosting.com.
ixwebhosting.com don't have a import feature in their control panel.
I have to maintain the SQL at ixwebhosting.com using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express since they don't have that feature in their cp. I don't see any import features in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express either.
How can I import it using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express or another free GUI program?

Hello All,
I am a newbe at MS SQL 2005, so if this has already been answered elsewhere, please just point me in the right direction.
I have successfully used the Import/Export wizard in "execute immediate" mode to import a table from Oracle 10g to MS SQL 2005. Works like a charm, but when I take the saved pacakge (saved as a *.dtsx server side file) - with no changes to the package and execute it from the either the "dos" prompt or from Windows explorer it fails at the login to Oracle step. Yet when I check the package's "Connection Managers" source connection, all the settings, user-ids and passwords look fine. The package does indeed execute, but I receive an ORA-01017:invalid username/password within the trace file of the package, but nothing has been changed from the Import/Export wizard which ran beatifully, thus verifying the appropriate acccess rights to Oracle.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I created a package via the import wizard in SQL Server Management Studio. When I test-ran the package I realised it needed to be modified. How do I do this without using either Visual Studio, SSIS Designer or an XML editor, none of which is installed where the package was created? Ideally I want to hear that there's a way of redisplaying the package in the import wizard.

View 7 Replies View RelatedHi,
We are building an application with
a database that contains Jobs. These Jobs have properties like Name, Code etc.
and some custom properties, definable by the application admin. For bulk import
of Jobs, we want to allow the import of an Excel sheet with the columns Name,
Code and a variable amount of columns. If the header names of these columns in
the Excel sheet match the name of a custom property in the system we want to add
the value of that cell into the database as property
value.
In our Data Flow of our Import
Package in SSIS we added an Excel Source that points to a test excel sheet with
the Name and Code columns and €“ for this example - 3 custom property columns
(Area, Department, Job Family). When we configure the Excel Source in the Excel
Source Editor, we have the option to select the Columns from the Available
External Columns table. But here lays the problem, we do not know at design
time, what custom property columns to expect. We DO expect the Name and Code
columns, but the rest is uncertain at design-time.
That raises the question: Is there
some way to select all of any incoming columns (something like a SELECT * in
T-SQL)? This looks like a big problem since it would mean that the .DTSX XML that is
being generated at design-time would need to be updated at run-time to reflect
the variability of the columns that might be encountered while reading the excel
sheet.
Then, we thought, we could add a Script
Component to our data flow that passes some kind of DataSet (or DataReader) in
which we can walk through the columns ourselves? But then still, we miss the
option to include ANY of the columns while reading an Excel sheet (or any other
datasource by the looks of it)
We are aware of the option of
optional columns in combination with the RaggedRight option, but it seems that
we would have to put all of the columns of a row in just one column and then
extract all the columns later with Derived Columns. But then, since the source
import file is being prepared by an application admin, we want don€™t want to
burden him with this horrendous task of putting everything in one
column.
We would like to have some way of
iterating through all the columns, either in a Script Component or maybe with a
Pivot/Unpivot mechanism.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Are there other options we should have considered?
