I receive a data feed from a third party in a pipe delimited file. From time to time, they add a column at the end. I would like my ssis package to continue to process the data even if they add a column with out it breaking. How best do I handle this situation?
View 6 RepliesI have a Data Flow Task. I have one "OLE DB Source" which gets my data from a SQL Server Database. I have a second "OLE DB Source" which uses DATEADD to derive a date qualifier that I would like to use as a date qualifier in my subsequent Excel spreadsheet...opting to use SQL Server and DATEADD rather than messing around with VB syntax to get the previous week date qualifier.I am trying to connect the flow from one OLE DB Source to the next OLE DB Source and get the error..Component OLE DB Source has no inputs, or all of its inputs are already connected to other outputs. You may be able to edit the component to add new inputs to it.Can't I connect two completely different and independent SQL Server queries using "OLE DB Source" within my Data Flow?
Is there any way to store my derived date from my second "OLE DB Source" to a variable so that I cana then use that as my date qualifier within my Excel destination?

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy Requirement IS : 1<sup>st</sup>run: if the record does not exist in the table insert the record (file_name, last_modified_file_date) and create a copy in the archive folder with file_name_currentdate.csv
Daily run: retrieve the last_modified_file_date from the input file and check if the retrieved date is greater than the last_modified_file_date in the table:
If true: create a copy of the input file in the archive folder and update the last_modified_file_date in the table with the retrieved date
If false don’t do nothing because the file has been archived in one of the previous runs.I have already retrieving the modified date and File Nae iserting into Filename Table: (That table has 2 columns which are FileName and FileDate) so In script task everytime the variable getting Modified date(retrieve the last_modified_file_date from the input file).

I have a file with a header row which contains the date of the file and under that all the columns without a header.
In SSIS package I skip row and manually name the different columns.
However, I want to use the column in the header row to store the date value in an SSIS variable and use that variable to write it to our staging table. How can I do this when I skip the header row?

I am creating one SSIS package where my source is oracle. I have transferred the data from Oracle to flat file as per client requirement.I have to create single package for 2 country 1 is US and another is CANADA Columns are below
ZONE_ID,
ZONE_NAME
Zone Id having data like 10001,10002,10003,20001,2002,2003
Where zone_id start with 1000 is US Zone and Zone_Id start with 2000 is Canada Zone.
For US:
1. Load geography data from DB tables into flat files
2. Load geography data from flat files to Spectrum DB tables
For Canada:
1. Load geography data from DB tables into flat files
2. Load geography data from flat files to Spectrum DB tables
Now I want to look from flat file if Zone_id start with 1000 then it must go to US_DFT and if Zone_id start with 2000 then it must go to CANADA_DFT.
I created an SSIS packages on VS 2013 using SQL 2014. I have to use transactions and without MSDTC as we don't have that environment.
Ok my issue when I load a stage table during the process and then I select from that same stage table my records on another table are not being inserted. why? I have done sql profiler an all sql statements are being ran under same SPID.
Package design
1. For each container - this is to process files on a folder
2. Execute sql task - begin tran
3. sequence container - to hold all and organize containers
4. execute sql task - truncate ImpTableA
5. Data Flow task - Import data into ImpTableA from file
6. execute sql task - insert into DimProducts and new products found in ImpTableA that are not in DimProducts so I'm joining the 2 tables together as a outter join and getting the new ones.
7. Execute sql task - commit tran
8. Execute sql task - rollback tran
On Step 6 I don't find any new rows on DimProducts even though I know there is new products. I have tested the sql statement in SSMS and it works and I find new rows. For some reason SSIS is not finding new products, I'm assuming that the rows are not committed yet and therefore can query them but I thought if I was under the same transaction and SPID I would be able to read uncommitted rows.
Need to be able to read from table that was just inserted in a transaction incase of a failure roll everything back.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an SSIS package that creates a csv file based on a execute sql task.
The sql is incredibly simple select singlecolumn from table.
In the properties of the execute sql task I specify the result set as "full result set" when I run it I get the error that: Error:
The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::CSVoutput" differs from the current variable type.
Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object.
If I change the resultset to single row then I only get the first row from the DB (same if I choose none), If I choose XML then I get the error that the result is not xml. What resultset type do I need to choose in order to get all the rows into the CSV? The variable I am populating is of type string and is User::CSVoutput
We have created SSIS package to load a text file into a table. Source system shares 10 text files and recently they stopped generating data for one of the text file (comping empty), after few months they will start generating the data for the empty file batch processing.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIt's SQL 2008 R2. I need to bring data from Oracle using .Net Providers/ODBC Data Provider to MS SQL table converting Oracle UTC dates to PST. The source connection type cannot be changed as it's given. For the Destination I'm using the OLE DB.
As the truncate all and load could take time I'm trying to use a temp table or a variable to use it further with t-sql merge or not exists to bring/add the only new records to the destination table.
I'm trying different scenarios that is all failed.
Scenario A:
1. In DTF after OLE DB Source I'm using the Derived Colum to convert dates. It's working well.
2. Then use Recordset Destination with an object variable User::obj_TableACD. It's also working well.
3. Then I created a string variable with a simple query that I could modify later "select * from " + (DT_WSTR,10)@[User::obj_TableACD] trying to get data from the recordset object variable but it's not working.
Scenario B:
1. Created a store procedure to create a temp table.
2. Created a string variable to execute SP str_CreateTempTable: "EXEC dbo.TempTable". It's working well with the SQL Task with SQLSourceType as Variable.
3. Then how to populate the temp table from the Oracle source to bring data into the Destination?
I have created a SSIS package that runs several reports exporting the file output to a shared directory. Then I email these files as attachments to an email group. I got everything working so far. But when I checked the email there are only some of the attachments (3 out of 6 files).I have created a variable that uses an expression to concatenate several filenames and their paths separated with a "|". When I evaluate the expression it list all six files. When I use the variable in an expression when assigning the "FileAttachments" property in the Expressions tab in the Send Mail Task editor and I evaluate the expression, it only shows 3 out of the 6 files.
Each file name and path is less than 100 characters. Why is this task only grabbing 3 out of the 6 files. If I check the shared directory all 6 files are there. Also, there are two paths in the package that input into the Send Mail Task each creating a different set of report files. Only one of the paths files are getting attached. The connectors to the Send Mail Task are set as Evaluation operation: "Constraint" and the Value: "Completion". Under Multiple constraints I have selected "Logical AND, All constraints must evaluate to True".
I have one scenario. I am calling all columns result set to an variable and inside for each loop container using script task to get message about how many columns are coming in the loop.
At last using send mail task to send automated mails to group of people,but issue it is taking only person's mail id and coming out of loop.
how to call object type variable ?

I have enabled SSIS logging for a Package.
Is it possible for SSIS logging to output the value of a variable.
Currently, it is only outputting the name of the variable, such as:"User::FilePath"
I am having trouble finding the correct syntax to access a variable. I have a variable defined in the Variables window: The variable name is formatedDate. The DataType is String.
I am successfully setting the value of the variable in a Execute SQL Task. The SQL is as follows:
SELECT LEFT(CONVERT(VARCHAR, MAX(ReportDate), 120), 10) as formatedDate
from DimReportDates
The Result Set is set to “Single Row” and properly set up.
No problem so far. I can see with a watch that the variable has the correct value, something like:
‘2015-09-30’
Now, in a subsequent step, a Data Flow Task, I want to access the variable. Actualy it is in the SQL statement of a OLE DB source in the Data Flow… I have the following:
Declare @sDate smalldatetime
SELECT @sDate = xxxxx
I have tried several things substituting xxxxx above, but nothing seems to work. One variation was
@[User::formatedDate])
Another was
((DT_WSTR, 10) @[User::formatedDate]).
I think I’m close, but just can’t get it. What is the correct syntax.
So I have a Web Service that works just fine when I enter the parameter values myself. I get results and can parse it out, storing the results into a table.

How can I populate the array variable for web service?

I have a set of .dtsx files that connect to an Oracle database. The Oracle username and pw values are saved in variables set up in the .dtsx files. These two variables do not have expressions, rather, these two variables feed other variables and their expressions.Theses files are now moving from one environment to another and the Oracle username and pw must be updated to connect to the new Oracle environment.
Upon updating the variables, the packages expressions update as expected, however, when saving the file to disk, the updated variables aren't saved and the values revert back to the original values.
How are variables updated in .dtsx packages that will allow changes to be saved?
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.
I need to create a variable expression that will be passing yesterday's date to a sql command but when I create the variable there is only the datetime datatype, how can I trim the time portion from this expression to get the date portion :

I've created a SSIS Package and it's connection is based on Environment Variable(please seeprocedure).
Now, I'm trying to create a job that calls this package and it seems that when you view Data Sources, it still pointing to the old server.
But when you open-up the package through BIDS in the same server, it's using the new reference that I have specified in the environment variable (please refer to the first image).
I came across this blog with the same issues as mine. He suggested to re-start the SSIS Service which I already did but nothing happens. I even re-started the SQL Agent but still no luck.
I'm not sure what else is missing except for re-starting the machine which is the last thing I want to do as this is PRODUCTION server.

Where ? is my input parameter variable migration_start which is a datetime.<o:p></o:p>

My Execute SQL Task will store the file name into a variable(mFile) of type string datatype.
Now I wanted a script task (C# code) to create a filename from the variable (mFile) value.

We have one package in production. variable var_date has an expression already defined to it. How can we overwrite this variable value from config file or from cmd file. We don't want to make changes to the package and redeploy it.
