I have to load on SS2012 hundeds of excel files produced by an application over the last five years, during time few columns have been added to the initial set.I created on SS2012 a table to match with the full set of columns and want to load all the files inside the table leaving the missing cells to NULL. I think SSIS can do the job but every trial failed do far.
View 4 RepliesI use a ForEach Loop Container in a ssis Package. The package has to look up in the directory 'f:ackups' for backupfiles and copy them into another folder.In my development environment it works fine. But if I run it on the SQL-Server with the SQL-Server Agent, the package logs always that the folder ist empty.Unfortunately the message is always 'empty folder' even if I define 'f:labla' as folder that actually not exists!
As filespecification I tried both *.* and *.bak .My assumption is, that the SQL-Server agent has not enough rights for that folder. But on the other side the agent is able to create backup-files in this folder.The SQL-Server Agent works under netservice control.
I have a requirement to load multiple flat files in target table .
I have created the package which used to load files into target table using For each loop container.
But now requirement has been changed now I have to take only those files from table where status="Success" and max JobId. By the query I am to get those records which need to load into table.
Below query I am using to get the files which need to load.
select [JobLogKey],[SrcNm],[DestNm]
FROM [ConfigRep].[dbo].[JobLog]
Where [JobId]=
(Select Max(cast([JobId] as Int)) Jobid
FROM [ConfigRep].[dbo].[JobLog]
Where [JobStat]='Success')
Output:-
JobLogKey SrcNm DestNm
268 H:Data PlatformSource FileClient2LocHGSSpecLocation.txt Location.txt
269 H:Data PlatformSource FileClient1LocHGSSpecLocation.txt Location.txt
I have to load using above 2 files which are under SrcNm. I have created one variable called FileToLoad as Object and mapping to result set of above query. I have create JobId,SrcNm and DestNm variable to catch the record at every loop. I have created 2 For each Loop container
Below screen shot of outer Foreach loop. Till here Its working fine. Inner for each loop container not executing any task under that. How to get it done.
Client uses an Amazon S3 bucket which they load flats files to . They also expect files to be delivered there to.So at the minute I have an SSIS package (SQL2012 ) which I use to generate some files but then have to manually import the files to the S3 bucket as well as export others.Now Mike Yin ( For SQL2008R2 ) mentioned that you need to obtain PostgreSQL ODBC driver so that you can use the .Net ProvidersOdbc Data Provider for ADO.NET Source component to connect to the Amazon cloud storage. After that, you can use a OLE DB Destination to load the data to SQL Server database.
Installed both 32 and 64bit 9.03. New connection Manager ADO.NET - New then drop the provider down to ODBC.Dataprovider.Then what ? Do I put the S3 bucket address within the use connection string ? Is there and example ? Why do I need the PostgreSQL ODBC as Im not connecting to a database just a S3 Bucket?
I currently have a directory of csv import files, all of which have the same data structure but different header information.
For example:
File 1
This is header info.
This is header info.
This is header info.
ID,Name, DOB, etc…
File 2
This is header info.
This is header info.
This is header info.
This is header info.
This is header info.
ID,Name, DOB, etc…
The data starts with the column title row, ie ID,Name, DOB.What I need to happen is process that removes all the header rows up to the title row so that all import file structures will be the same.
I was thinking of using a ForEach Loop container that will run a script on each of the files to remove the header.
In order to update an Oracle table target from a SQL Server table source I need to use a Foreach Loop Container, so I can loop on the rows of the SQL Server table source. This source table has two columns: the old identifier to update and the new identifier to apply. I must use the value of the old identifier to filter the Oracle rows to update, while the new identifier is the new value to assign to the filtered old identifier.
I already know how to use the Foreach Loop Container when it is necessary to loop on an unique column of a table/view (using an object variable, using a Foreach ADO enumerator, etc.), but I need to loop on two columns.
Using sql server management studio I want to do 2 things.
- Import all txt files from a directory as tables into my DB.
- Add an additional field to each new table which contains the table name.
I'm trying to use the Import/Export Wizard as I used to, as a handy tool to figure out what a series of T-SQL statements (in an SSIS package) is doing - or, if I'm lucky, what on earth the original dev intended them to do.
Version: SQL 2014 64-bit running on Win 7 64-bit
The code is pretty dreadful:
SELECT DISTINCT on one set of column names,
join this set to another table but not on exactly the same set of column names,
embedded (SELECT MAX(bla) FROM SameTable WHERE [match to outer set on another set of columns] GROUP BY [hey, yet another set of columns!]) inside the SELECT column list...
and it all goes to a nasty #Tmp, which is then abused with further bad code further down.
Imp/Exp is always handy to quickly get the intermediate results into an auto-created real table, so I can figure out exactly what the effect of this is. I use it to export from the database back to the same database, but to a persisted table.
This time (first time with SQL2014) it's not working. The source is "write a query" (paste the actual query). The destination I set to a new table. The auto-generation of the new table creates every column as type date. Not surprisingly, this doesn't work, as the original data is mostly not of date time.
I want to load flat files into a single table. But the flat files can have variable number of columns upto a maximum of 10 columns. The table in my database has 10 columns in it. So in case if I load a flat file having 6 columns then rest of the columns in the table will have nulls. I don't want to use script task for this as I am not good in writing C#code.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a requirement where in i have around 15 different flat files , filenames are fixed but folder path can be changed(i think i should use a variable for folder path). These 15 files data should go to their respective tables in the database.
Whether I need to create separate data flow task for each file or separate package? In addition to these, example : while importing product data into product table, if product ID already exists, we need to ignore it and upload only the new records.
I am trying to import an xlsx spreadsheet into a sql 2008 r2 database using the SSMS Import Wizard. When pointed to the spreadsheet ("choose a data source") the Import Wizard returns this error:
"The operation could not be completed" The Microsoft ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider is not registered on the local machine (System.Data)
How can I address that issue? (e.g. Where is this provider and how do I install it?)
I'm new to SSIS, and trying to automate data imports from text files. The text files I'm importing always contain a fixed set of columns, or a subset of those columns. If I include a subset of columns in the import file (and exclude others), the data doesn't import...I assume because the actual file doesn't include every column defined in the flat file source object?
Is it possible to accomplish this without dynamically selecting the columns, as indicated here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms136020.aspx
I have a simple FOR EACH loop who's task is to go to a folder, find all .zip files and then extract them to a directory of my choosing. I only want this step to extract files in a particular (root) directory.
What is happening is after the step extracts the main file to the specified output directory, it then goes to the next directory and extracts the files in THAT directory - even though I do NOT have "traverse subfolders" selected.
What is going on here? This has never happened before - at least when I was developing these packages with SQL 2008 R2...

I have a data in excel sheet which is to be loaded to sql table. The Column called seq_num has data with leading 0's these 0's are ignored while loading through ssis.
Example if seq_num is like 0099988 the sql table would get 99988, how to get the whole data with missing anything.
FYI: seq_num on excel source has a data type as dt_r8.

View 21 Replies View RelatedIn my SSIS Package I am using For each loop container to load the data from csv file to SQL Table.
my file will be like abc_120554.csv
I want to places one script task before the foreach loop container to check if the file exist in the folder which start with abc_.what to do for same.
I have to import a number of excel spreadsheets. I'm using the classic Foreach Loop inside another Foreach loop approach. The outside loop (Foreach File Enumerator) cycles through the Excel files, while the inside loop (Foreach ADO.NET Schema Rowset Enumerator - ExcelSchema - Tables) to cycle through the individual Excel sheets in each file.
Nothing special there; however, for some reason these excel files have some "phantom" tabs that should not be imported. I call them phanton because they show up as an importable tab in a SSSIS import wizard but actually are not listed in the excel file structure (no, they are not hidden tabs, I checked).
My idea is to use a constraint to NOT import those phanton tabs. The name convention should allow me to do that because the normal tabs have the name 'AAAAAAyyyymmdd$' and the phantom tabs show up as 'AAAAAAyyyymmdd$'_xlnm#_FilterDatabase (the line below was captured from the Local Variable window and show one of the phantom tabs name).
+ User::WorksheetName {'AAAAAAyyyymmdd$'_xlnm#_FilterDatabase} String
I tried using Len (@[User::WorksheetName]) == 17, which corresponds to the length of the normal tabs name ('AAAAAAyyyymmdd$'). However, it does not work. For some reason the portion of the phantom tab name after the ending single quote (_xlnm#_FilterDatabase) appears to be ignored.
I tested with a number of different expressions, including reversing the variable, to no avail. It seems that internally just the standard name between quotes is what the constraint sees.
