I have created a File System task which is contained in a Foreach Loop Container. I have .bak files that are populating a directory from a maintenance backup plan.
There is a point where I need to delete the .bak file's after I've zipped them all up.
How do I set the SourceVariable to read through the directory and pick up just the .bak file's in the directory to delete.
I attempted to use Move Directory to move the contents of one directory to another. I encountered the 'different volume' issue that others have experienced. While this error is frustrating I can work past this particular issue. My more pressing question is why is the move directory command overwriting a destination directory?
When I setup the Move directory file task I provided two vars to hold src and dest location:
dest var: estserveroutput
src var: devserverdev estfiles
Set overwrite destination = TRUE
Why would Move Directory overwrite output folder at destination? Shouldn't it only overwrite if the testfiles directory exists at destination? This is very frustrating since I cannot find enough information in the official documentation to understand what is happening here.
Is it just me or does the documentation for Move directory seem.....incomplete?
This delete's the directory content as well as sub directory content! Is their a way i can just set it to delete the files in the said directory and not sub directories?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI'm copying files to a folder with the naming convention as follows in the source folder:
CM_ABC_MY_TEST.txt
In the destination folder, this filename needs to appear as:
CM_XYZ_MY_TEST.txt
In my File System Task, I'm pretty sure I'm going to need an expression with a replace, substring, etc. But am having a hard time nailing down the exact syntax.
I have an SSIS package doing a bulk insert from a file. Then later on I'm trying to delete that file (in a file delete task), but I'm getting an error:[File System Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "The process cannot access the file 'xyz' because it is being used by another process.".I'm wondering if there isn't some way to 'tweak' the bulk insert syntax so that it doesn't lock the file?

Hi All,
I have a source files folder where the files generated everyday.
My goal is pick the latest file and copy this single file to another folder.
I used the Foreach loop container and got the latest file and stored the file name to a varible i.e. LatestFile
Then i want to use the File System Task to copy this to the destination.
On the beginning, I could not setup the Latestfile since I don't its name then, so when I setup the Source Connection property of the File system task, it is not allowed to leave the SourceVarible as blank!
Any suggestion?
Thanks
Micor
Hi
This should be incredibly simple and easy, but I can't find any examples of how to do this.
I just want to make a File System Task move a file, and have the destination be filename + date and time. For example \serversharefilename02072007.txt
What syntax do I use in a variable to make this work?
Thanks
Hi!
I'm having a bit of a problem implementing a File System Task to Create a directory and would appreciate some help if possible.
I want to create a date directory so I can move files to once they are imported successfully. The date portion for the directory comes from the import file whose name is variable and in the format of PerfLog_<yyyymmdd>.aud. So, in essence, if I am processing a file named Perflog_20060913.aud, when I am done processing it I want to create a directory c:myprog20060913 and move my processed file there.
Can anyone help me? Please.
Hi,
I want to move all files of one directory/folder into another usng SSIS, like in DOS Prompt we use the command,
Move d:ftpSource*.* d:ETLSource
I have tried by creating a file system task, but there is no option for Move Directory Contents. Move File is not accepting wild cards.
Regards,
Imran.
I am trying to create and later read a data file from a package deployed in SSISDB, but it is not reading it while it is successfully creating the file. The same package when run from the file system package, runs successfully. Generating ispac and deploying in SSISDB is running for infinite time. Is it a permission issue?

I have a doubt in file system deployment in ssis. I read msdn articles like "MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml" will decide the default folder for ssis packages those are deployed to "File System".
I have installed SQL server 2012 of 64 bit in my system. My "MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml" file was reside in the path"C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server110DTSBinn". This means when we try to deploy my packages to File System default path should come like "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server110DTSPackages".
But in my case path was coming like "C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server100DTSPackages" even though my "MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml" reside in "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server110DTSBinn". i can't able to see my packages in SSMS when i connected to integration services.
We deployed the ssis package to SQL server and now trying to configure but it only allow use to change environmental variables there is no option to browse and select XML configuration file. Does this mean when you are using SQL server deployment mode u can only use environmental variable ?

I have a package from SQL Server 2008 R2, that loads data from .xlsx file to database table.There are total 15 columns and 14000 rows in the .xlsx. The package runs fine in BIDS. But the same package in SQL Agent fails with error "omponent "Excel Source" (1)" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_ISBROKEN".
When I tried to run the package by deleting the half of the records for first 7000 rows it ran successfully in agent. Then the second half (last 7000 rows) also succeed from agent job. So, there is no issue with the data/datatypes.The agent job is able to run with record upyo 11000 rows in .xlsx. When I am running for 12000 rows it is failing.Is there any problem with the number of records in .xlsx or size through SQL Agent?
I am running the package from a Proxy account in sql agent job.

I've been working on an issue in an SSIS package and getting strange results using a package variable named "UnprocessedFileCount". I'm looping through files in a directory (using a Foreach Loop Container) to process data into the database, and after a certain amount of time, I stop processing the files and short circuit the loop to finish the package faster. I was tasked with counting the number of files that weren't processed and it seemed easy enough to count how many times the loop "short circuited" by incrementing a variable in a script task. I then wanted to send out an email and include the incremented variable in the body of the message.
I ran into issues when I used the variable name "UnprocessedFileCount". The variable was incrementing within the loop as expected. However, it was always resetting back to "0" after the ForEach file Loop Container completed.
After some heavy searching on the subject, to no avail, I eventually found that changing the variable name did not reset the variable.
I'm still using SQL Server 2008.

I have a very simple package that has a flat file source object and an ole db destination object in the data flow. All works fine.
If I change a row in the flat file to make it fail how do I make the program continue and go to the next row?
The ole db destination does not have a Error Output properties like the flat file source does.Thanks
created a very basic flow in SSIS: extracted table data through ole db connection, added multicast and as end result i created a flat file destination (with .txt file) and a ole db destination.
My question is; how can i delete the .txt file before executing the flow again? Want to avoid that the .txt file has duplicated rows after a second execution of the flow. Is it possible to use scd component or is this way to complicated? A for each loop?
i need a similar solution for the data that will be transported through the ole db destination task....
I'm trying to import a flat file source into a SQL Server table.
The flat file is pipe-delimited and text qualified with " (double-quotes).
The import job is failing because there is a "comments" field in the flat file and there are carriage returns within some records in the "comments" field. When SSIS encounters a record with a carriage return within that field, it sees the carriage return and assumes the end of the record, even though the field is text qualified with " ".
The actual error message I see is: "
Error 0xc0202055: Data Flow Task 1: The column delimiter for column "comments" was not found.
(SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
Sample Record:
"418186"|"94"|"Staff Only-Minimum charge out of 3 hours
Plus travel & accommodation costs (if required) – at cost.
All trauma response services & associated fees/costs are required to be formally authorised by the Company prior to delivery."|""|"690"|""
I can't think of a way to get SSIS to ignore the carriage returns within the Comments field in the source flat file!
I am working to archive some old data from a data warehouse using SQL server and SSIS. The data will be read and denormalized, then shipped out to a delimited text file.
The rowcount of the incoming data is significant, call it 10M+ rows per unit of work (one text file).
There are development advantages of using a stored proc for the data source - mainly ease of changing the denormalization logic as required. Wondering if there are performance advantages of an embeded query for the data source instead?
It was mentioned by one developer that when using a stored procedure, the output stream from the proc and subsequent SSIS steps cannot start until the full procedure processing is complete; i.e. the proc churns out its' result set in one big chunk.
He hinted that an embedded query does not have this same effect, but I am not sure that is accurate.
I have implemented a package to load multiple files to a destination. Since the source was a txt file, i have created as flat file source. However now we are getting files in excel format as well.
Is there anyway the source gets changed dynamically based on the file extension, output of the foreach file enumerator? I can think one solution to have 2 dataflow tasks based on precedence constraining and expression one is for .txt and other one is for .xls.
