Hello,
We need duplicate a large number of SSIS packages , changing only server connection and database name inside the OLE DB Source sql command. Is there any easy way to do it , I mean without opening every package individually?
Thanks,

Is there a way you can open an SSIS package without validating it?
The reason is - when I take a package from PROD and open it in DEV - initially all settings-variables are wrong - and the validation takes heck of long time in that case. And then I need to change the variables and reload the package. And bloody hell - if I forgot to change a variable - I sometimes have to validate package 3 times. And sometimes - I only need to get visual look of package - so why do I always need to wait for validation...
Hallo,
I'am relatively new to SSIS-programming and experiencing a serious problem with a package (6618 KB large) containing 5 dataflows. These dataflows all start from a datareader-origin and flow trough multiple transformations. While editing the fifth dataflow the developmentenvironment suddenly became unworkably slow. After any modification made to the dataflow it takes several minutes before I can continue editing. Meanwhile in the task manager the process devenv takes a very large portion (50 to 100%) of CPU.
Building the package,shutting down SSIS and even rebooting the PC don't make any difference. When you close the package ands reopen it, this takes at least 10 minutes.
We work with Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Designer
Version 9.00.1399.00.
Does anyone know if there is a limit to the number of transformations in a flow or the size of a package? Could that be the problem?
Before this problem occured I was multiplying transformations by copying ,renaming and altering them within a dataflow. Could SSIS have some problem with that?
Any suggestion for solving this problem, other than chucking it all away an restarting, will be gratefully accepted.
With kind regards,
Paul Baudouin
I am getting the following error when I try to open my SSIS package
Error 1 Error loading CCTAdvocateList.dtsx: The connection "DestinationConnectionOLEDB" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found. j:cct db migrationcodecct db migrationCCTAdvocateList.dtsx 1 1
Error 4 Error loading CCTAdvocateList.dtsx: The connection "SourceConnectionOLEDB" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found. j:cct db migrationcodecct db migrationCCTAdvocateList.dtsx 1 1
The connections which BIDS is complaining about are not even there in the package. I had created these two connections some time ago but then I had removed them from the package and it was working ever since.
Suddenly I have started to get these error messages.

Abhishek.
I have been handed a datawarehouse environment to look at however I cannot find the ssis packages (.dtsx).
I see that the packages have been deployed to SSISDB but I can't find the files to load into Datatools.
Once the files have been deployed is it possible to remove the package files? Is there a way of retro'ing the deployed packages out of SQL so I can view them in Datatools?
I have an IS package containing approx. 10 tasks in the control flow - one of these tasks is a rather large data flow containing around 50 transformations plus 3 sources and two destinations. Around 10 of these are script components and another 10 are Union All transformations. The rest are primarily lookups, conditional splits and derived column transformation.
The XML file containing the package is approx. 4.5 MB. As I am developing the package, it is becoming increasingly slow to work with as more transformations are added to the data flow. Now, it takes 8 minutes every time I have to open the package for development (DelayValidation is even set to true) and DTExec (not the debugger) uses the same amount of time before it starts executing the package. It also takes a very long time to edit the data flow, as I typically have to wait 1-2 minutes every time the designer has to "commit" a change.
Does anyone have any idea what can be done to speed up the package - both with regard to development and execution?
We're experiencing a problem where intermittently our SSIS packages will hang. There are no log errors or events in the event viewer. It will happen whether the package is executed from the SQL Job Agent or run from BIDs. When running from BIDs it appears to hang inside one of the data flows (several parallel pipes with sorts, merge joins etc...). It appears to hang in multiple pipes within the data flow component. The problem is reproducable, we just kill it and re-run, and it appears to hang in the same places.
Now here's the odd thing: as we simply open and close some of the components in the pipe line after the place it hangs, a subsequent run will go further in the pipeline before hanging. If we open and close all the components after the point it initially hung, the data flow will run fine, from there on out. When I say "open and close" I mean no changes are made, we simply double-click the component, like a merge join, then click 'close.'
To me this does not seem like a memory problem but likely something is wrong with the metadata, where opening a component and closing it somehow alters the metadata to "right it".
This seems to occur intermittently after we make modifications to the package. It's like if you make any mod, even unrelated to the data flow, you then have to go through and open and close every component in your package to ensure it will work. Again, no errors or warnings are fired.
Has anyone seen this type of problem?
hi,
I need to convert a stored procedure in to a SSIS package, do any body have an idea on this. thanks in advance
Currently I am running a SSIS package scheduled daily at 7 A.M. It expects two feed files from two different folders. The first step in my package will rename the input files in those folders to names which the package can understand. I have created two variables in my package to read the files with those file names. I used these variables in connection managers.
If any of these folders doesn't have input files when the package runs, the package will fail.how to make the package the run successfully even there is no input feed?
i have a nightly job (SSIS Package) scheduled using MS. The package loads data from the OLTP db to the warehouse. The server has 256GB memory and out of which 211GB is free.
the job runs w/o any problems but some times it fails with the following error"DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "The statement has been terminated.".
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint '<var>PrimaryKeyName</var>'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object '<var>TableName</var>'.".
When i researched this error i found out that its because of the memory issue. we have 222GB free memory and how come this is possible. Is there a way in the package or anywhere else where i can specify how much (percentage) of the memory that the SSIS package should use (something like SSRS threshold levelp).
Our project is on SSIS 2012 and we are using the project deployment model. We have parameter the connection managers, created environments, environment variables and configured the references. Hence, when we deploy the solution to higher environments, the connection strings are picked from the environments and not the ones stored in the connection manager.
However, we face issues when in development environment, we need to run the same package but by entering the values manually in the connection manager. Even though the connection details are correct, when we execute the package from Visual Studio, SSIS is not able to connect to the database. Is there any way to have SSIS prompt for the connection details after we have click on "Execute Task" or "Start" from Visual Studio?
Hi,
I have been working on some SSIS packages for a while now and today while i was working i was trying to create a new connection and in the process there was an error and it said the BIDS has to be closed and i closed it but later when i open BIDS and try to open my project(.sln) from the file menu to work on the half done package it pops up an error which shows the path to my project location on the first line and next statement on the pop up error box says:
"Make Sure the application for the project type (.dtproj) is installed."
I tried to check some forums in which some suggested to try installing SP1 which i tried but ..i dont know why but the SP1 fails to install (i dont know if its causing problem becoz i already installed SP2 as i had some other problem before for which the cure was to install SP2).
Did anyone here face such a problem before ?
I'd really appreciate if the experts here can tell a cure for this problem.
thanks,

Hi all,
the SQL Management Studio keeps crashing out on me everytime i try to open a Lookup in one of my DTS packages i am using in the Legacy section.
I am copying the DTS package across and need to change the server connections (which i do), but then i was getting a permissions based error when the package ran when it tries to access the Lookup.
I tried to open the Lookup and the SQL Management Studio hanged when it tried to display the details for the lookup. It's done this many times and i have tried different files incase one was corrupted to no avail.
Anyone have any ideas of what i can try?
Thanks

I'm pretty sure this problem started after applying Windows 2000 SP2 on machines running SQL 7 SP3. It may be that I only started manipulating these particular DTS jobs since that upgrade.
Problem: In EM I open a DTS package and it causes the server machine to crash to a blue screen. This has happened from a Windows 98 workstation running against a Windows 2000 Server SP2 running SQL7 SP3 and on a standalone laptop running Windows 2000 SP2 running SQL7 desktop edition SP3
Can anyone point me to more information on why this is happening?
Thanks

Hello,
I have been using a 180 day trial version of VS2005 Pro. It was due to expire so instead of purchasing that version, I got VS2008 Standard.
Problem: cannot run/edit SSIS 2205 projects within VS2008. Okay, so I uninstalled the VS2005 Pro trial version and reinstalled VS2005 IDE component that somes with SQL Server 2005. My idea: use VS2005 for SSIS work and VS2008 for everything else)
Seemed to install correctly. I can open VS (as SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio). Everything looks normal, except when I try to view a SSIS package. I consistantly get the following error message:

BIDS hangs when I open any SSIS packages. "Microsoft Visual Studio Is Busy" message displays in the system tray. It indicates that Microsoft Visual Studio is waiting for an internal operation to complete; however, it never seems to complete. I have recycled the server hoping to break it loose, however nothing seems to free it up. I have not had this situation before and I cannot figure out why it is having problems. BIDS shows it is "Validating Data Flow Task". Has anyone encountered this problem before?
Would it be a true statement that whenever you use BIDS to alter a SSIS package the source has to be available because verification and validation is always done on the source and destination? If the source were not available could that cause the hang in BIDS???
I have an excel sheet that has a bunch of columns. Some of these columns have static data but there are a few of the columns that retrieve data by making calls to servers and returning values that populate these columns. Usually about 30 mins before the columns are populated.
I then need to to load the excel sheet into a table.
I was wondering if there was anyway by which we can make the connection to the excel sheet and then force a delay of about 30 mins before it starts retriving the data?
Is this possible in ssis? Or can I achieve it by some other means?
Thanks for any help in advance
Hi All,
I am not able to open the package in BIDS. When I open the package I am seeing only the XML. Below I had given what I have done.
First I have installed Visual studio 2008 Professional and next I installed SQL Server 2005 with Integration services, database services, workflow components.
I am able to see the BIDS in Start --> All Programes --> Microsoft SQL Server 2005 --> "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio"
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.
I have a solution with a couple of ssis projects in it. Everytime I open the solution, Visual Studio creates an extra .database file for the project's existing xxx.database file. The solution is under VSS control and VS2005 checks out the project and shows the file as a newly added file.
What causes this and how can I prevent this from occurring?
The files contain this:
<Database xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:dwd="http://schemas.microsoft.com/DataWarehouse/Designer/1.0" dwd:design-time-name="d3ce9653-3ac5-4ee5-85c3-7d60b2e5f109" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/analysisservices/2003/engine">

</DataSourceImpersonationInfo>
</Database>
There are 2 of us working on the solution and the other fellow does not see this behavior.
The files do not show up in the VS2005 solution explorer. If they are user specific as I suspect (impersonation info?), then they should not be added to the .dtproj project file.
Thanks!
In a DTS package, I have various SQL tasks which are linked by workflows, either 'on success' or 'on failure'.
What is the sql statement for making a sql task fail so that it follows the 'on failure' workflow?

View 10 Replies View RelatedHi,
I am trying to execute a SSIS package programmatically. When a user drops a file in a shared folder, we execute the package based on that file. I am using SqlServer.DTs.Runtime.Application.LoadPackage() and SqlServer.DTs.Runtime.Package.Execute() functions each time to do this.
The problem is, when, say two people drop a file, the second one will not execute untill the first one is completed. I also tried only calling LoadPackage() a single time, and then storing the instance and calling Execute() in a different thread on each file drop; although the blocking still occurs. I assume the Package object is the one doing the blocking then behind the scenes.
Is there any built in functionality to make these functions (Application.LoadPackage() and Package.Execute()) run async? If not, has anyone had much success sticking these calls into a thread? I tried sticking these calls into a thread using System.Threading.ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem(), and this appears to work, however it randomly crashes the program when I drop multiple files one after the other. The exception also isn't too helpfull (pasted below):
"The package failed to load due to error 0xC0011008 "Error loading from XML. No further detailed error information can be specified for this problem because no Events object was passed where detailed error information can be stored.". This occurs when CPackage::LoadFromXML fails."
So, is what I am trying to do possible? I know it must be, because when I was using .NET 1.X, I was just calling dtexec via the command line, and dtexec was able to execute many packages simultaneously....
Thanks for any help,
Drew
Hi,
In our project we have two SSIS package.
And there is a task (Execute SSIS package) in First package that calls the execution of second package.
I m continuously receiving an error "Failed to decrypt protected XML node "PackagePassword" with error 0x8009000B "Key not valid for use in specified state.". You may not be authorized to access this information. This error occurs when there is a cryptographic error. Verify that the correct key is available."
As we are running first package by job, job runs successfully logging above error
The protection level of second package is set to "EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey"
Can anybody please suggest how to handle it?

Thanks in advance.
I have VS 2013 installed in my machine with SQL server 2012 ,I have installed Microsoft data tools for VS 2013,In the integration service project i used script component when i try to pen the script task its not opening VSTA projects ,its simple ideally without any action.I am facing this issue for past 2 months i tried fixing this problem but no use.
The script task editor has "Access VSTA to write script using VS 2012".So i installed VSTA tools for 2012 and 2013 but no issue.
But the script component works for VS 2010.I have installed Microsoft Visual Studio tools for VS 2012,VS2012 AND VS 2013.
This issue is occurring for VS 2012 and VS 2013.
I have a SSIS job, one of the last steps it performs is to execute a SQL 2000 DTS package. This has to be done as a SQL 2000 DTS package as it is performing rebuilds of SQL 2000 Analysis Services dimensions and cubes. We've found that when the DTS fails the SSIS job is happily completing showing as a success, we would prefer to know it went wrong.
As far as I'm aware SSIS merely starts the DTS off and doesn't care about it's result. I've taken a look in to turning on the logging for the execute DTS package and thought that the ExecuteDTS80PackageTaskTaskResult would give me the answer I need...but is merely written to the log not available as an event-handler. It also looks like it is not safe to put a SQL task in as the next item to go look at the SQL 2000 system tables to look at the log for the DTS package as the SSIS documentation warns that the DTS package can continue to run after the execute DTS package task has ended.
Ideally I want any error raised within the DTS package to cascade up to be an error in the SSIS job, I can then handle it appropriately. I cannot find a way to do this. Is there a way?
If not, can anyone suggest how in the remainder of the SSIS tasks I can be sure that the DTS has completed before I start any other tasks that will check for the SQL 2000 log of its execution?
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 All,
I am in the process of moving from a 32-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise (9.0.3054) to a 64-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise (9.0.3054 with 4 CPUs and 8GB of memory on Win 2003 SP2) and the process has been very frustrating to say the least. I am having a problem with packages that I created on my 64-bit SQL Server. I am importing a few tables from the 32-SQL Server into the 64-bit SQL Server using the Task --> Import to create the package.
Sometimes when I am creating a package I get the following error in a message box:
SQL Server Import and Export Wizard
The SSIS Runtime object could not be created. Verify that DTS.dll is available and registered. The wizard cannot continue and it will terminate.
Additional information: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. (System.Windows.Forms)
Other times when I run a package that has run successfully before I get the following error:
Faulting application dtexecui.exe, version 9.0.3042.0, stamp 45cd726d, faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, stamp 00000000, debug? 0, fault address 0x025d23f0.
Other times I get this error message:
.NET Runtime version 2.0.50727.1433 - Fatal Execution Engine Error (79FFEE24) (80131506)
And still other times
The package appears to hang when running. By this I mean that the Package Execution Progress shows progress up to a point then it just stops. (The package takes about 17 seconds to run normally) CPU usage is at 1% and the package cannot be stopped.
I have deleted and re-created the package several times and I have also re-installed the service pack on the SQL Server (9.0.3054) but that did not help.
Does anyone have any other suggestions to try?
Thanks.
