hi everyone,
I've created a Send Mail task which works properly and now I'd like to send that email n times.
How do I such thing. I moved that task inside Foreach loop container and then I choosen "Foreach From Variable Enumerator" and then I've created a Int32 variable.
And now, I don't know how to tell that increments that variable
TIA,
Has anyone ever seen this issue?
If i place a loop container inside a sequence container the connectors within the loop container disappear.... is this a bug - will the loop tasks still run in the correct order?? or will they fire off willy nilly??
OK. I give up and need help. Hopefully it's something minor ...
I have a dataflow which returns email addresses to a recordset.
I pass this recordset into a ForEachLoop configuring the enumerator as (Foreach ADO Enumerator). I also map the email address as a variable with index 0.
I then have a Execute SQL task which receives this email address as a varchar variable (parameter 0) which I then use in my SQL command to limit the rows returned. I have commented out the where clause and returned all rows regardless of email address to try to troubleshoot this problem. In either event, I then use a resultset to store the query result of type object and result name 0.
I then pass this resultset into a script variable to start parsing the sql rows returned as type object. ( I assume this is the correct way to do this from other prior posts ...).
The script appears to throw an exception at the following line. I assume it's because I'm either not passing in the values properly or the query doesn't return anything. However, I am certain the query works as it executes just fine at the command prompt.
Try
ds = CType(Dts.Variables("VP_EMAIL_RESULTS_RS").Value, DataSet)
My intent is to email the query results to each email address with the following type of data by passing the parsed data from the script to a send mail task. Email works fine and sends out messages but the content is empty. I pass the parsed data as string values to the messagesource and define the messagesourcetype as a variable in the mail task.
part number leadtime
x 5
y 9
....
Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
thanks

I have attempted to report out errors at the end of an ETL process by alerting supporting DBAs of errors using the SSIS "Send Mail Task". Task completes along with the sequenced packages, but does not mail anything out. No logic at this time for trigger, just success from the previous task triggering the task to send mail. I also get no errors in the output, and I get no output indicating the send mail task fired, but it does go "green". Do I have to enable database mail and have privileges?
Component Configuration:
SMTP Connection Manager - SMTP Server: arsocex02
Send Mail Editor -
From: messerj@arsocdev.bdev.lab.mil
To: sanderss@arsocdev.bdev.lab.mil

Dear all,
I have switched off the firewall settings on my system and as suggested im entering the minimal information and data to send the mail.
but still the Mail Task is failing..
plz suggest.
Hi Everyone,
Hopefully someone out there will have an idea as this is driving me nuts.
I've setup a task to email on success/failure and keep receiving the following message when executed:
Progress: The SendMail task is initiated. - 0 percent complete
[Send Mail Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Failure sending mail.".
Progress: The SendMail task is completed. - 100 percent complete
Task Send Mail Task failed
When I configure Outlook Express on the same machine with the same settings it works.
On the SMTP Connection Manager I have left the default name, tested with both an IP address and Server Name, and no authentication or SSL.
On the Send Mail Task, it uses the above connection. The To: , From: , Subject fields are populated. Message SourceType is DirectInput, MessageSource is Test, Priority is Normal and no attachments or expressions etc.
Nothing useful is logged in the Event Viewer even with full logging turned on.
Any suggestions appreciated,
Thanks.
Hello,
The Database Mail feature is already enabled on the server, also I have a mail account on the other server.
The problem I faced is that I need to send mail from my SQL Server using a created email account on the other server. How should I configure my email to do that ?
Should I use a sysmail_add_account procedure to enable account, also set profile and profile account ? Does this way creates server mail account that is binded with other email account?
The mail should be sent from my SQL Server.
Thank You.
I keep getting a generic "Error Sending Mail" error. For testing purposes I am just trying to send using my own email account. What goes in the SMTP Server box in the connection manager? I have tried:
A - the exchange server address (SOMETHING.us.company.com)
B - The SMTP properties I see when I look at the properties of my email address: (my.name@abcd.efgh.company.com)
C - Just the end portion of the SMTP properties: (abcd.efgh.company.com)
D - My email address (my.name@company.com)
I don't know what to enter, or what is giving me such a generic error message.
Hello
I have got a script which gives the mail to the dba mail box when database backup fails.
In the script I want to make a change so that I get the particular database name , on what ever database i implement.
Can you tell me some suggestions.
The script I am using is :
use master
go
alter PROCEDURE dbo.SendMail
@to VARCHAR(255),
@subject VARCHAR(255),
@message VARCHAR(8000)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE
@rv INT,
@from VARCHAR(64),
@server VARCHAR(255);
SELECT
@from = 'testsql2000@is.depaul.edu',
@server = 'smtp.depaul.edu';
select @message = @message + char(13) + Char(13) + @@servername + '-'+ db_name()+ '-' + 'Backup Status Failed' + Char(13)
EXEC @rv = dbo.xp_smtp_sendmail
@to = @to,
@from = @from,
@message = @message,
@subject = @subject,
@server = @server;
END
GO
--- After the above script is run the following should be given in the 2nd step when
--- the backup jobs are scheduled ------
exec master.dbo.sendmail
@to = 'dvaddi@depaul.edu',
@subject =' Test sqlserver 2000',
@message = '' ;
Thanks
I know you can specify additional recipients in the To column by sepperating them with a semicolon. But whats the easiest way to send to several users, when the email address must be retrieved from a table with a query like this:
select email from problem_subscribers
where project = 'project1'
and statusmail = 'OnError'
So when the eventhandler gets an OnError i want the mail task to be sent to each problemsubscriber.
NOT ABLE TO SEND TEST MAIL FROM DB MAIL...The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure. . Exception Message: Cannot send mails to mail server. (Failure sending mail.).Exception Message: Cannot send mails to mail server. (Failure sending mail.).

Sorry that I open a new thread again but I didn€™t found any good tutorials about foreach loop container. I would like to read every row from one table and do something.
I red something about sql task€¦ Can someone give a little instruction, please?

Hi
I using data flow task to import from flat file to database but i need to use Foreach Loop Container to import multiple files in specific folder and all will be insert in the same table
tahnks & Regards
What I'm trying to do is take multiple "snapshots" of a membership for many months. I was trying to do this in a For Loop Container in which I added one to the month variable and subtracted one from an iteration variable each loop, unless the month variable = 13...then I would add one to the year variable, set the month variable to 1 and subtract one from the iteration variable. This, I was hoping, would allow me to initialize 24 to the iteration variable, 1 to the month variable and 2004 to the year variable, kick off the package, and get 2 years worth of "snapshots" in seperate files (one for each month). Here is the AssignExpression I thought would work:
@Member_Month == 13 ? @Member_Month = 1 && @Member_Year= @Member_Year + 1 && @Member_Iteration = @Member_Iteration - 1 : @Member_Month = @Member_Month + 1 && @Member_Iteration = @Member_Iteration - 1
The package states that the single "=" should be double, but I don't think that that is what I want to do (I tried doing this just to check, and it didn't like this either). I think that it is having problems with doing multiple things on both sides of the ":". What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,

We have a config table which has columns like pollingfolder, cop to folder etc.
Data looks like this
Config id polling folder
1 d:dataloadacn
2 d:dataloadship
under ACN and Ship folders we can have more than 1 source files which had to be loaded into target
the load process has to be repeated for each file in all the folders like ACN and ship
I have used for each loop container to poll the folder.
Can we set the directory to be polled at runtime taking from config table.
For doing this I have used the property Directory in expression editor of for each loop. But it is not working.
If I hard code the variable value in variables section , then its working.
How to change the directory to be polled value at runtime?
I'm trying to set up a For Loop Container that steps through the loop based on date logic.
Here's an example of what I'd like to do:
InitExpression | @SomeDate = 1/1/2007
EvalExpression | @SomeDate < GETDATE()
AssignExpression | @SomeDate = DATEADD(DAY, 1, @SomeDate)
The above syntax does not work, and I can't find an example that uses date logic with the For Loop Container.
Can anyone help me with this, or point me to an example that uses the For Loop Container with dats?
Thanks in advance for the help!
Hi,
I am using For each loop container in my SSIS package which will loop through more than one input file in the input folder.
All the input files in the input folder are picked by one by one. All the input files in the input folder are executed with the same ExecutionInstanceGUID.
Now, my requirement is to get a new ExecutionInstanceGUID during the execution of each input file in the For each loop container. My package only contains the For each loop container with some logic inside that.
Please let me know if any one can help me for the same.
Regards,
Sriram.
Hi,
A very strange thing happened to me. I have a package that includes two For each loop containers. Each container has script tasks, sequence containers, etc. Both are Foreach ADO Enumerator basis. It works without any problems until I changed the position of one of them in the Control flow and added some code in the script task. After these changes I executed the package and both of For each loop containers did not execute the tasks inside of them, any task. However the execution color on the containers was green (success). How can it be?
Your help is much welcome. Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
I am having problem when setting for-each container's EvalExpression as a variable comparison.
I have set this in expression editor
@[User::Syn] == 1
Editor says that it couldnt convert from System.Bool to System.String.
If I put it in quote, then for-each container says that it needs Bool, not String.
Please help me with this,
Thanks
Hi
Currently the ForEach Loop container is set to loop over the entire collection of records in my table, but I only need to loop thru the records where the status = x. How is that possible? Can I use expressions to set the enumerator to do something like this. Basiclly the collection values are used for further processing, and I would like to avoid looping thru records which have been processed already, which means they already have a status set to y. Please let me know. Thanks.

I am trying to move files from one directory to anonther using the For Each Loop Container and a File System Task. However, on the FIRST iteration of the ForEach Loop the variable that I am setting to the 0 index of the For Each Loop is returning me a valid directory with no file ( path only ) from who knows where ????
On the second iteration of the For Each Loop everything works as expected and I get the full path and file name and it iterates through all the files in the directory o.k.
So I have had to put a Hack to skip the fist iteration of the loop and then execute the File Task on the second iteration but I dont see anyone else doing this.
Where in the heck is it getting this odd directory from on the fist iteration ( its not my User varible because I am initializing it to \nowhereofile ). What am I doing wrong?
Hi. I am running a package using 'execute package' inside a for each loop file iteration. I have to iterate through some 10,000s of files to ETL source data, a resonably complex package. I want to set going and get some sleep but every 200 files or so I get a memory exhausted error and the task fails. Is there a short easy fix to refresh memory each iteration. If so please let me know. Just ignoring the failure at task level won't refresh the memory, will it?
Thanks for the help.
Could someone send me any links or information on how to loop through an ADO.NET dataset in SSIS? I need step by step information please.
Thank you,

Hi,
My Foreach Loop container has 10 different task inside. I want to execute the first task only one time. I have a variable with increases for each repition. How can I put precedence contstraint on the first task so that it should execute only first time and other task has to execute all the time.
Thanks
Hi All,
Seems like a simple task, but been a struggle.
Simply trying to move a group of files from one folder to another folder and renaming the files with the monthyear in the middle of the filename..
I'm using a FOR Loop container and works find. The added complexity is I'm trying to rename the files the same tine and putting the Month Year into the file name.
I guess the struggle is how to get the file name out so I can manipulate it.
I tried creating variable(V_SOURCE) which stores the file path and create another variable(V_FILENAME) to hold the filename. I believe on the expression page of the FOR LOOP editor if I select the the file name and extension radio button, it should put the file name in the V_FILENAME variable.
In my file task trying to join the two variables together in another variable, keep saying my path is wrong with the file task kicks off.
here's the syntaxt
@[User::V_SourcePath] + @[User::V_FILE_NAME]
With a ForEach container, configured to loop through files in a
directory, if I have a problem with a file.. can I direct the loop to
skip on to the next file?
I'm processing structured files, first record of each is some
header info, body records are in the middle, and then the last record
is a trailer containg a checksum
So, for each file in the directory, I split the records into three raw
files, one for header rec(s) , one for body recs and one for trailer
recs. (based on line numbers and using a conditional split to direct
the records)
Then I start by processing the header recs in a dataflow.. if all goes
well there I move on to the next dataflow to process the body recs from
the DataRecs raw file.. etc...
I would like to do some validation at each processing step.. if a
header rec fails validation say... then I'd like to just stop
processing that file and move onto the next file...
Now, I don't see my validation throwing an exception... so its more
that I'd decide (maybe using an Audit ) that the header doesn't pass
validation.. then I'd like to put a record in an error table (with info
about filename, source etc, not just content of the current data row)
But not sure what approach to take on this...
If there is an appropriate section in BOL please point me at it...
Thanks

Hi,
I have a "Data Flow Task" inside" For Each container". Data flow task is processing file and updating the DB.
If one of the file is correpted i want to move to error folder and continue with the next file. i have given red arrow to a script Task which move the file to error folder. but its not continuing with next file. how can Ido that?
Any help
Hi everyone,
I am having hard time with foreach loop container. The for each loop container in my package goes over all the rows in a ADO enumerator recordset variable and shows row values one by one in message box. The problem is that it just keeps printing the first row infinitely. Could anyone tell me what could be wrong?
Thanks in Advance,
