How To Refresh Transformation In SQL2005 SSIS (I'm Trying To Transfer Random Sql Table Into Dbf)
Jun 13, 2007
Im from Russia, sorry if my english is not very good.
Here's the case:
1)-------------------------------
I made a DTS-package in sql2000 that transfers the [sql table] into [dbf file] via jet4.
First i create (in delphi) the empty dbf with the same name and columns same as in sql table.
Second, I run my DTS with variables - source and destination table names
In DTS there is source, destination and transformation . After I send the Variables(table names)
, the transformation "arrow" needs to be "refreshed" to make column names in both tables correspond each other. For that in transformation I chose ActiveXScript Mode and wright VB Script:
' Copy each source column to the destination column
Function Main()
dim i
For i = 1 To DTSSource.Count
DTSDestination(i) = DTSSource(i)
next
Main = DTSTransformStat_OK
End Function
And it works
2)------------------------------
I want to do same thing in sql2005 SSIS but don't figure out how...
I managed to make a package that recieves (in variables) table names and runs correctly.
But after I change those variable names into any other it crashes -
Description: "component "OLE DB Source" (1)" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA".
Of cource this happens 'cause I didn't "refresh" the transformatoin (and maybe also source and dest), but I don't know how.
Hi all, I have created an SSIS package to export rows of data from SQL to Access using SSIS package. The package is executed from asp.net web application. Below is what i want to achieve: -User enters a date range -SSIS package will export data between the date range from SQL to Access database. -When user enter another date range, I want to clear the contents of the Access database. (Im using Execute Sql Task--- Delete tablename) The problem is that when I look at the table after the second user request, the fields will show #deleted. Only after i click refresh will the new data appear. How can I make the data appear without manually refreshing the Access table. Thks alot.
I need to transfer data from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005 nightly. Replication DB1.T1 table in SQL 2000 to DB2.T1 table (the same table structure) in SQL 2005. What are my options? I need to extract a daily data and do this daily. Some example would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
I have versions of sp_hexadecimal and sp_help_revlogin I used with SQL 2000 to transfer logins. Will they work with SQL 2005 as-is? Might I need updated versions?
I've a SSIS 2008 parent/child package solution to manage data transfers between two different data sources, so we can copy multiple tables and capture how many rows were transferred and duration for each transfer. This solution was working fine up until last week, when I made some changes to allow the package to perform a source count using standard SQL determined by an expression, or SQL provided from configuration tables, I also changed the package to Truncate or not the destination table, again controlled by configuration settings in a table. The child packages which perform the data flows have not changed!
The day after the controlling package promotion to live, I saw the bizarre behaviour of the Package log stating all rows transferred, but the actual table counts were not what the log stated, see attached file. The package solution works ok on other servers and was ok in DEV, but there were less tables and rows transferred.Re-running the package gave the same errors, but on some of the same tables and some different ones.
As it is the child packages doing the transfers and nothing has changed in them. I cannot see how the log would be able to say all rows are transferred and yet not all of the rows are actually moved?
Process output - where you can see counts and log Table transfer controller (as txt not dtsx)
An example of the data transfer child packages (as txt not dtsx)When I set the ExecuteOutOfProcess = True the package worked fine, unfortunately, this is not a good solution as SSIS 2008 does not tidy up the Dtshost.exe processes it starts and I'd be left with a memory issue after a very short time, we transfer hundreds of tables each day. ( I could write a .net script in the controlling package to kill the child processes, but that would still have hundreds of processes running before I could end them, as we have three parallel streams to allow a bit better performance.
How do you refresh a SSIS pkg to get the latest table schema change?
I have this data flow task that will load data from a flat file into a table.
I got a Warning: Truncation may occur due to retrieving data from database column "txtSNumber" with a length of 50 to data flow column "txtSNumber" with a length of 20.
Then I went into Management Studio and changed the column size. Now in my dev BID I got next: [SQL Server 05[82]] Warning: The external metadata column collection is out of synchronization with the data source columns. The column "txt..." needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection.
I think this means my change on the table did not get into my ssis, and I could not find a way to refresh.

I'm a newbie in the XML field and in the new features of SSIS....so help me!
I want to import a complex xml file in SQL Server via SSIS; I've created a package that map the xml source files to many different destination table. When I try to execute the package, I've one error about data type specified on XSD (for example unsignedShort instead of unsignedLong). At this point I fix the XSD file, settings the correct data type, but I don't find a way to explain to the package that it have to reload the xsd file. The only way is to make a new package....
I'm looking for a way to refresh the package without rebuild it...
When I use the OLB data source (SQL SERVER 2005), select * from tableA, then use several steps and then Union ALL and Fuzzy Match, the process works fine. When I change the data source SQL to include two tables with a cross join, the new fields in Table B do not appear in the Union ALL or Fuzzy Match steps but do appear in all steps prior. The advanced editor refresh does not fix the problem. Deleting and recreating the Union ALL shows the Table A and Table B fields. Fuzzy Match is still incorrect. Deleting and recreating Fuzzy Match fixes it.
Is it possible/advisable when transfering very large amounts of data from server to server to: trasnfer the data to a new table first second alter new table adding indexes, defaults, ets based on original table
if it is what flow item would be used to transfer/alter the indexes and defaults?
I'm very new to ssis so the more detail you can give the better.
My vendor requires data to be sent in Excel format. Some of my tables have rows over 65,536 so I need to use Excel 2007 (Max of 1,048,576). Right now my data sits in SQL 2000. I am using MS SQL Enterprise Manager 8.0 to prepare the data. Is there some kind of add on or selection I am missing to use DTS to export from SQL to Excel 2007?Thanks in advance.
I am trying to refresh some excel sheet I get with powerquery. After that I load the data in an sql server table to build a dummy DWH for various testing.
My goal is to automate all task and this include also the excel queries. I have seen that exits on codeplex an excel refresh task but it doesn´t work in my enviorment (SSDT 2013) or at least I have been unable to do it.
I have seen too a pragmaticworks component but I have to pay so I have discarded it.
I have tested a code that I have found in this
thread with minor changes like increase the time to refresh the excel file to 60000 and change the line
[System.AddIn.AddIn("ScriptMain", Version = "1.0", Publisher = "", Description = "")]
I run the script but neither fails nor does anything. It run sucefully without refresh. This is the entire code I run
/* Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Script Task Write scripts using Microsoft Visual C# 2008. The ScriptMain is the entry point class of the script. */ using System; using System.Data; using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime; using System.Windows.Forms; using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel; namespace ST_53932a75e92c44f086535fc017a56e6a.csproj { [Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.ScriptTask.SSISScriptTaskEntryPointAttribute]
[code]....
P.S: I have been playing with the time it needs to refresh and I have found that set the time in 80000 works fine.
I am trying to load a XML document using SSIS into relational tables and pulling my hair out.
In it's simpliest form I have:
<Batch>
<POSBasket>
<Header>
<SomeDetail/>
</Header>
</POSBasket>
<POSBasket>
<Header>
<SomeDetail/>
</Header>
</POSBasket>
</Batch>
Now, when you have a parent child situation, you get a column in the output called xxx_Id, in my case, POSBasket_Id. This allows you to relate your header back to your root and SomeDetail back to header etc etc.
Loading all of this in parrallel does not work because there is nothing unique once the load has happened more than once. i.e. You will have repeating POSBasket_Id's as well as Header_Id's.
I ended up loading POSBasket into a table with an identity column. Once done, I would load the header details and do a lookup (eek) on the POSBasket table by using POSbasket_Id "where isComplete = 0" (A flag to tell me current import).
Great, this works find with 1 item in my document. Add a second (2 POSBaskets) and it randomly works. (???) Add more and it hardley works. The look ups are failing with "no match found".
On using Data Views, I see that each XML source creates different POSBasket_Id's. Some matching, some not. Also seem to randomly match.
My question is why? Why would there be the ID if they differ when loading them from the same document? They not even unique across sources.
The scenario is that i have two windows open... one is the table and the other is the query that modifies the same table. I was wondering if there is a way to refresh the table so that after i modify the table i don't have to close it and reopen it to verify the changes.
Now, that when I open a access I need to go to Data -> Databse Utilities - > Refresh Table Manager. Then I select which table to refresh. Is there a way to make it auto refresh when I the database?
I have begun using SSIS and I am a little taken aback by the complexity of it especially since I just want to do a simple data transformation such as in DTS. Are there any tutorials for data transformation for SSIS on the web/this forum and what if I want to do a simple transformation from Access to SQL Server?
Hey all - got a problem that seems like it would be simple (and probably is : )
I'm importing a csv file into a SQL 2005 table and would like to add 2 columns that exist in the table but not in the csv file. I need these 2 columns to contain the current month and year (columns are named CM and CY respectively). How do I go about adding this data to each row during the transformation? A derived column task? Script task? None of these seem to be able to do this for me.
Here's a portion of the transformation script I was using to accomplish this when we were using SQL 2000 DTS jobs:
' Copy each source column to the destination column Function Main() DTSDestination("CM") = Month(Now) DTSDestination("CY") = Year(Now) DTSDestination("Comments") = DTSSource("Col031") DTSDestination("Manufacturer") = DTSSource("Col030") DTSDestination("Model") = DTSSource("Col029") DTSDestination("Last Check-in Date") = DTSSource("Col028") Main = DTSTransformStat_OK End Function *********************************************************** Hopefully this question isnt answered somewhere else, but I did a quick search and came up with nothing. I've actually tried to utilize the script component and the "Row" object, but the only properties I'm given with that are the ones from the source data.
My issue is the inner join transformation in SSIS. See i ll explain my problem clearly now.....
Actually i m just checkin if the inner join performed in business intelligence studio usin the inner join transformation and the inner join performed in the management studio using queries are same. Logically both the resultset should match isn't but in my case it is not so. It is very important for me to figure out where the problem is because i m goin to use lotsa inner join transformations in my current project.
I ll appreciate if someone can help me to figure out this problem. May be you can also tell me the detailed steps in adding the inner join transformation and also how it works.
Hi,I need to extract randomly 5 records from the table "Questions". Now I useSELECT TOP 5 FROM Questions ORDERBY NEWID()And it works. The problem is that I need an additional thing: if SQLextracts record with ID=4, then it should not extract record with ID=9,because they are similar. I mean, I'd like something to tell SQL that if itextracts some questions, then it SHOULD NOT extract other ones.How can I do it?Thanks!Luke
I have two program (App1 And App2) on two separate system.on App1 there is a database named DB1 and on App2 there is a database named DB2.on DB1 i create a table named Table_1 .i define replication for DB1 to push publication (for table_1) .
I define DB2 as a subscriber to receive all changes on [DB1].[Table_1]. every thing is ok but just one thing. when App1 and App2 both are running if i change the contents of [DB1].[Table_1] this change only shown if one time i exit from App2 and rerun it . how can i refresh App2 without rerun it?
A friend said to me it is possible with trigger, but how? I don't know how can i define a trigger for this reason . or any way that exist for this reason.
I have a flatfile source to which different flatfiles will be passed as input,this is connected to an OLEDB destination which changes along with the sourcefile. But when the new file is given as input, the OLEDB mappings are not getting refreshed.It is showing an error.
Actually this was implemented in DTS, and they have used an activex script for the transformation. what shd I use in SSIS?
Hi I have migrated a DTS that had some activeX transformation tasks within data pump flow tasks.
Those parts were migrated as "DTS 2000 tasks" .. so activeX transformation tasks aren't possible in SSIS ? I know ActiveX script tasks are but for transformations ?
1. IF i leave these Encapsulated DTS 2000 tasks in the migrated SSIS package, will it run independently of the original DTS or does it need the old DTS running to "call" that part from ? (I hope im making sense here) is it possible to load this functionality internally into the new SSIS ?
2. How could I (if i can't do ActiveX transformation tasks) achieve this is SSIS ? can I achive this using the script tasks in SSIS ?
Can someone help me out in providing the STEPS to solve this problem. My scneario is, I've a table which has got 2 fields and 5 default row values have been filled in. Now, using the above, duirng package runtime, it need to dynamically create additional field and has to store values like for.e.g (0001 America). I'm getting the following error while executing the ssis package.
1. [DTS.Pipeline] Warning: Component "Derived Column" (1170) has been removed from the Data Flow task because its output is not used and its inputs have no side effects. If the component is required, then the HasSideEffects property on at least one of its inputs should be set to true, or its output should be connected to something. 2. [DTS.Pipeline] Warning: Source "OLE DB Source Output" (87) will not be read because none of its data ever becomes visible outside the Data Flow Task.
Please suggest with your valuable solution at the earliest.
Is there way to rename parameters Param_0, Param_1 in OLEDBCommand transformation? I am trying to create table driven packages using BIML. I am using OLEDBCommand Transformation to update rows. But since, I will not be sure of how many parameters and order of the parameters, I was planning to rename the parameter programmatically, so that accordingly I can build the update statement and add filter condition.
