Hi,

I am new to SSIS. I need to read the files in a remote server folder and ftp them to the other remote server folder.


I know , I have to set up FTP task and FTP task must use a variable to provide the path information. But I am not sure how I can do this. Anyone suggest me with the script task to populate the variable and steps involved in this.

Thanks,

Receive Files From Remote Site Only If File Does Not Exist In Local Directory

Jul 13, 2007

I need to only receive files via ftp when the file does not exist on my local machine. FIles are being added to the remote location on a weekly basis and they are being downloaded locally. I do not want to download all the files each time. Instead, just download what was not already downloaded. Is there a way to do this? I want to do this using SSIS / ftp task.



Thanks in advance.

How Can I Receive An Error From The SMTP Task And Get It To Stop Failing When Attachment Isn't Found

Apr 9, 2008

Hi,

I am using the SMTP Task to send an email to about 200 individuals with their own specific attachment. If it cannot find the attachment the SMTP Task fails.

Is there a way to log the failure and have it keep going? That way it will still process everyone, but I would get a list of those who didn't receive the email because there was a problem.

I looked at Jamie Thompson's blog and he had a great script to send out emails. But if I use that, I haven't yet figured out how to pass the filename variable to it and attach the file. Even if I use that script, how do I deal with the errors?

Thank you for the help.

Script Task: How To Compare Files On FTP With Existing Files In Local Folder Before Transfer!

Apr 24, 2008

In the first step of my SSIS package I need to get files from FTP and dump it/them in a local directory, but it's more than that, the logic is like this:
1. If no file(s) found, stop executing and send email saying no file(s) found;
2. If file(s) found, then compare it/them with existing files in our archive folder; if file(s) already exist in archive folder, stop executing and send email saying file(s) already existed, if file(s) not in archive folder yet, then transfer it/them to the local directory for processing.

I know i have to use a script task to do this and i did some research and found examples for each of the above 2 steps and not both combined, so that's why I need some help here to get the logic incorporated right.

Thanks for the help in advance and i apologize for the long lines of code!

The Script Files Failed To Load In Script Task When Setting A Breakpoint In The Task On Vista

Mar 15, 2007

I cannot set a breakpoint in a Script task and have it complete successfully. I am running Vista 32-bit and only the workstation tools for SQL Server 2005 SP2. The steps to recreate are:

1) Create a new SSIS project/package.
2) Add a Script Task.
3) Set a breakpoint in the Script Task.
4) Run the package.

When I remove the breakpoint, the script task succeeds. When I put it back the task fails. The execution results say "Error: The script files failed to load." I completely uninstalled all SQL Server 2005-related entries using the Programs and Features control panel, rebooted, reinstalled the Workstation Tools, then applied a freshly-downloaded SQL Server 2005 SP2 and rebooted. If I change "RecompileScriptIntoBinaryCode" to false the script fails whether there's a breakpoint or not. If it's true (the default), the script only fails when a breakpoint is set. I would like to be able to set a breakpoint to assist in debugging the package. For the time being, I can move the package to a different (non-Vista) OS, where it works fine, but I would like to be able to develop and debug on Vista.

Log Files For Scheduled Task

Nov 3, 1998

How do you specifiy a log file for scheduled tasks. I have consistency checks done at night and when it fails, I cannot find out why because no log file is created. I checked for a log file in /MSSQL/LOGS/*.log. The maintenance wizard creates a log file, but how does a regular TSQL scheduled task create a log file?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Does The XML Task Update XML Files?

Oct 7, 2005

I'm using package configurations to store my server/database name in an XML File.  I need to be able to dynamically change the database at runtime when I execute the package.  Can I use the XML Task in another package to make a change to that xml file?  I'm not familiar at all with XML, so I don't really know the syntax for XPath or XSLT or anything.  Basically I'm just looking for an example of how to this with XML, but I haven't found anything on the web to explain this to me.  BOL isn't very helpful with the XML Task.

FTP Task And Temporary Internet Files

Apr 27, 2006

I have created a package within SQL Server SSIS which includes an FTP Task, deployed it to our SQL Server (2005 SP1) msdb database and am running this job under SQL Agent on Windows Server 2003.  Due to company security requirements this job has to be run under a service account within SQL Agent.  The problem with this is that even though a directory is specified within the FTP Task to place any downloaded files into, the files are first written to the TIF (Temporary Internet Files) directory of "Default User" which is on the system drive.  Based on corporate standards the system drive (C:) on our servers are only configured with enough space for the OS and other system files.  All of the files being transferred are compressed, but some are still well over 1GB in size.  The result is that many of our downloads are failing due to the system drive running out of space.

I have attempted to run IE by using "Run As" with the service account credentials, and have changed the location of the TIFs to a different drive, rebooted and verified the settings.  When the SQL Agent job was run again, the files were still being written to the "Default User" directory on the system drive.  I also created a new template account with the TIFs pointing to a non-system drive and used the User Profiles functionality of System Properties to copy the new template account to "Default User", but still the files are being written to the system drive.

My questions are:

is there a way to stop the FTP Task from using TIF (i.e. just directly write the file to the location specified) 
is there a best practice around how to setup a service account and have it create a proper user profile that can be managed separate from "Default User"
short of specifying during the OS install, is there a way to move the "Default User" profile directory to a different drive

SSIS Script Task That FTP's Files

Feb 22, 2007

I could not find the exact details on how to create a SSIS script that would ftp files on these forums, so I am adding my code to help save time for anyone else that might be wanting to do something similar. Here is the VB code for my script task to FTP files (hope this helps someone):

' Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Script Task

' The ScriptMain class is the entry point of the Script Task.

FTP Task Fails If There Are No Files - How To Avoid This?

Hi,

I have an FTP task on a package that runs every hour, downloads files from FTP and processes them.

If there are no files, the package should stop successfully after the FTP task, but the problem is that it fails because there are no files.

How can I avoid this?

And another question is there another way to download files and delete then with out another FTP task?


Thanks

FTP-Task: Multiple Files Not Downloaded

May 11, 2007

Hello all,



I am new to SSIS and have a (maybe) simple question:

I use the FTP-Task to download two excel files from a FTP server. The task succeeds but only one file is downloaded instead of

two. I tried both: RemotePathVariable = false with /FTPTest/*.xls as RemotePath and RemotePathVariable = true with a variable

containing the same path. Both bring up the result described above.



Thank you in advance

Is It Possible To Ftp Files Using Code In A SSIS Script Task?

Jun 12, 2006

Is it possible to ftp files using code in a Script Task? I need to read the contents of an xml file and if it has a a specific file name in there then I ftp the corresponding pdf file which is at the same location as the xml file. However I cannot do this using the provided FTP Task in SSIS, I would need to use code to do this as there are close to 50 xml files which I need to read and upload the corresponding pdf file file it meets a certain criteria.

I do not see a way of looping thru all the files in a folder unless I do this in a Script task. Any inputs or alternative comments on doing this will be appreciated.



Thanks,

FTP Task - Delete Remote Files Always Fails

Mar 11, 2006



Hello,

I have two FTP Tasks configured in my SSIS package. One is for "Receive files" and the other is set for "Delete remote files." Both use variables for the source/destination paths. My remote path variable contains a wild card in the name field such as /usr/this/is/my/path/*.ext and it is working to FTP all the .ext files to my working directory. I then rename the files and want to remove the original files from the FTP server. I use the same variable as the remote path variable in the delete as I do in the receive.

Using the same FTP connection manager for both tasks I am always getting a failure on the delete. The FTP connection manger is setup to use the root user. Using a terminal I am able to open an FTP connection to the server and remove the files manually. There doesn't seem to be any detailed documentation on the FTP Task configured for Delete remote files so I'm hoping someone might have some insight to the problem.

I receive the same message for each of the files that was downloaded:
Error: 0xC001602A at MyPackage, Connection manager "FTP Connection Manager": An error occurred in the requested FTP operation. Detailed error description: 550 usr hisismypathdatafile1.ext: No such file or directory.
The attempt to delete file "usr hisismypathdatafile1.ext" failed. This may occur when the file does not exist, the file name was spelled incorrectly, or you do not have permissions to delete the file.

With the root user/working manually I'm not understanding the permission reason, the file does exist and is spelled correctly.

Execute Package Task And Configuration Files

Nov 25, 2006

Hi all

For selecting different load targets we use package configurations to override the connection parameters in the connection manager.
To organize the different tasks we splittetd our load processes into multiple package files (dtsx) which are then put together into a workflow using "Execute Package Task" component.
With the option /CONFIGFILE its possible to override the configuration file for the package that is called with DTExec. Unfortuanetly it does not override the configuration of subpackages calles by the "Execute Package Task".
Are there some ways to configure subpackages on the command line?

Missing Files After Using File System Task

Jan 25, 2007

Hi All,

I don't know if anyone faced this issue. We are having a strange problem. Our process was working well when it was implemented on 32 bit processor.IT ran perfectly for 6 months with out a problem. But when we moved the packages to a 64 bit machine, this issue along with some other issues started to show up.

The issue is we are missing files in the source folder.

Our process is designed such that a source process, brings in a file and updates a status for the file in a audit table. The ETL process picks up the file, then assigns the status as €˜running€™ when SRC process is complete and loads into Target DB, and updates ETL status to complete. But current problem is the ETL is losing files after it assigns the status as running. When we looked into the DB weather the data is loaded, we could not find any data related to these files.

we are have mapping level parameters for source path and target path.

We are using a For Each Loop task, and processing files(which are simple flat files) in the source path. The file name is stored in the mapping level parameter. Once the file is process we are moving them into a target path.

Our src and target file paths are on the same drive, just have src folder, inside src folder we have processed folder and failed folder. So files are picked from the source folder and moved into processed folder after processing. The files are not even moved to a failed folder.

There are lot other processing going on this box, and the trend observed is that when more processors are running at peak hour, the missing files€™ count is more.

Right now we are refetching those files, as a work around, but does any one has any suggestion why this is happening or any better implementation suggestions?

Thanks

I have a FTP task in my control flow that download files from a FTP server. This ftp task is inside a foreach container that loops over a ADO recordset for the file name. The files that the ftp task pulls are huge. If the FTP task fails then I want the FTP task to restart and only download those files that have not been downloaded. Is this possible?

What possible configurations do I have to make to the foreach container and the filetask?

Integration Services :: SSIS FTP Task Sending Files To Wrong Folder

I'm using the FTP Task in SSIS to send files. They task succeeds but the files get uploaded to the wrong folder. Instead of being sent to the cg268301 folder they are being sent to the cg268300 despite selecting /cg268301 from the remote path field in the FTP task editor.

I've tried uploading this file to the /cg268301 file using an execute process task and it works fine. I just don't know why it won't work with the FTP task.
