Integration Services :: Unpivot Task For Multiple Columns
Mar 31, 2009
I have a situation where i need to unpivot multiple columns using ssis. The data looks like
Name Age products1 products2 orders1 orders2
abc     23   cycle       radio         12        24
as
Name  Age Products  orders
abc    23     cycle      12
abc   23      radio      24
Is it possible to do this using the unpivot task in ssisMy actual data is has 18 columns which needed to be unpivoted into one and another 18 into another one.when using unpivot task it gives an error saying only one pivotvalue key is allowed.
I've created a SSIS package which takes a matrix from Excel file and insert into SQL table. It works perfectly! However, if I would add a new column into that matrix in Excel. Unpivot tool should take into process dynamically. Is there a way to provide this automatically?Â
I'm trying to unpivot a table in SSIS: The pivoted table basically looks like
ID DATE1 TEXT1 DATE2 TEXT2
----------------------------------
ID1 D1 T1 D2 T2
...
The unpivoted result looks like
ID DATE TEXT
-------------------
ID1 D1 T1
ID1 D2 T2
€¦
It works, but the one problem I am facing is: If D1 IS NULL in the pivoted table then D1 in the unpivoted table contains some strange value that is neither NULL nor a valid datetime. In a data viewer I get the in the DATE field "Fehler: Die Parameter Year, Month and Day beschreiben eine nicht darstellbare Datetime." (i. e. "Error: The parameters Year, Month and Day form an invalid datetime."). The loading of the OLE DB target yields an error because the DATE value cannot be converted to a valid datetime.
I have multiple sequence containers in my package. Â I only want to have one sendmail task for the failure/completion of the package. Â If I put the sendmail task in the last sequence container and the first seqence fails, the sendmail task will not be reached and therefore, no email will be sent out.Is there a way to have one sendmail task for all the sequence containers and allow it to send mail regardless of what sequence fails/completes?
I was to split each record into multiple columns. The problem is some records need to be split into only 1 column, others may need to be split into more. Also need to remove the "/"'s. This is all dependent  on where a "/" is found. Been beating my head for a while and getting nowhere.
So:
create table #foo (myPK int, c1 nvarchar(425)) insert into #foo values (1,'/folder1') insert into #foo values (2,'/lvl1/folder2') insert into #foo values (3,'/folder1/lvl2/folder3') insert into #foo values (4,'/f1/folder2/lvl3/fldr4')

I'm using SSIS in Visual Studio 2012. My Execute SQL Task calls a Stored Procedure where I have a TRY-CATCH. Last week there was a problem and the CATCH was executed and logged an error to my error table, but for some reason the Execute SQL Task didn't fail. Is there a setting to make the Execute SQL Task fail when an SP encounters a failure?
In short, does the €œTransfer SQL Server Objects Task€? support distributed transactions?
In trying to use a €œTransfer SQL Server Objects Task€? in a container using a transaction on the container. The task is set to support the transaction. It is setup to copy table data from several tables from a non-domain server (sql server 2000) to a domain-based server (sql server 2005). I get an error stating, €œThis task can not participate in a transaction€?.
I am wondering if it means exactly what it says €“ this task in SSIS can€™t participate at all. Or does it mean that it won€™t in this scenario for some reason. I attempted a simple copy of data from mssql 2005 to mssql 2005 (same server) and the task still failed). MSDTC appears to be running properly on my machine and such (I can do a simple distributed transaction across linked server to the 2000 server in Query Analyzer (QA)). Also, MSDTC appears to be working on both servers with distributed transaction query tests in QA.
Here€™s the error info€¦
SSIS package "Development BusinessContacts and Products Migration.dtsx" starting. Information: 0x4001100A at Copy BusinessContacts Data: Starting distributed transaction for this container. Error: 0xC002F319 at Copy BusinessContacts database table data 1, Transfer SQL Server Objects Task: This task can not participate in a transaction.

Information: 0x4001100C at Copy BusinessContacts Data: Aborting the current distributed transaction. SSIS package "Development BusinessContacts and Products Migration.dtsx" finished: Failure.

how to declare multiple derived columns in SSIS Derived Column Task in one attempt.as i have around 150 columns coming from Flat file. I had created the required Expression in Excel and now i want add those in derived column task but its allowing only 1 expression at a time.
I 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.
Using "Integration Services Project" template in Business Intelligence Studio. Using platforms Visual Studio 2005 along with SQL Server 2005.
Getting the error while trying to execute package after loading it programmaticaly.
I've just one task "Transfer SQL Server Objects Task" on my Integration Services package. But when I try to execute it from VS 2005 project programmaticaly, it gives the above mentioned error.
The commands I use:
Package pkg = new Package();
pkg = a.LoadPackage(@"C:Documents and SettingsabcMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectslSSISSSISPackage.dtsx", null, true);
DTSExecResult dResult = pkg.Execute();
The the error comes like: error: 0xc0012024 The task Transfer SQL Server Objects Task cannot run on this edition of Integration Services. It requires higher level edition.
I have a developer here that created an SSIS package that contains a Send Mail Task. When this developer runs the package in the Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) the send mail task runs without issue. But when he tries to run it using command line and the DTEXEC program it errors out with the following error message:
Error: 2007-08-01 15:57:44.37

Here are the details of his machine: Visual Studio 2005 Version: 8.0.50727.762 (SP.050727-7600)
Under the Installed Products section it reads: SQL Server Integration Services version: 9.00.3042.00
Once we promoted the package to a production server it runs fine. I can also run the same package from my machine without issue. So, I'm pretty sure that it's specific to his machine, but I have no idea where to start looking.
I has created a SSIS FTP Task Programatically for Receiving Files. I have written code for Transfering data from FTP to my local machine. it is working fine. i need to log the details of the file transferred like file name, file size it to database table.
can any one help me to solve this...... its very urgent please.....
Email    | CC_Flag xxxx          0 yyyy          1 zzzz          1
Using Task SQL, I am trying to pass these email addresses to two separate variables - To_field, Cc_field on basis of the CC_Flag..Is it possible to fill two variables from a single SQl Task,.
I have an issue that feels like it requires an Unpivot task, but I'm struggling to visualise the best way to do it. I'd be grateful for any advice on this.
I have this dataset in my pipeline
moduleid startdate modenddate
Revenue MonthsOnModule
800091 05/09/2007 30/12/2007 150 3
800094 05/09/2007 30/11/2007 148 2
800095 05/09/2007 30/12/2007 300 3
Basically, each module has a start date and an end date. Therefore, with a simple datediff, we can get to MonthsOnModule.
Each module attracts an amount of revenue, which need to be allocated equally to each month over which the module runs.
In the example above, Module 800091 lasts 3 months, generates £150 revenue, so in September 2007, it attracts £50, in October 2007 It attracts £50, In November 2007 it attracts £50.
I'm using this package to populate a fact table in an OLAP Data Warehouse. The destination table needs to hold the data like this:
moduleid Month value
800091 200709 50
800091 200710 50
800091 200711 50
800094 200709 74
800094 200710 74
800095 200709 100
800095 200710 100
800095 200711 100
Now that looks like a pretty straight unpivot, but in order to unpivot, you have to have columns to unpivot into rows. In this case, I would need one column for each month that the module lasted. Modules can last any number of months. Some last 40 months, and there is no reason why one couldn't last 100 months or more.
I just can't really seem to visualise my approach to this transform. Anyone got any ideas?
Executing the FTP Task - The execution starts and after 3 or more minuts the execution stops with the RED X but with no errors, and the file is not transferred.I use the same entries to the FTP connection manager as it is for the Dreamweaver...The variable that I created for file in the site is FileName1 and the site directory tree is The local path is And The File Transfer is filled up like this: After the Execution stops I get..And the file was not transfered..Also, when I try to Specify the Variable Expretion.
I have a SSIS 2014 project that is being deployed to the 2014 SSIS catalog. In one of the packages there is a script task that uses an ftp connection manager within the package.
There is structured error handling in the script and it runs fine in development, but fails when deployed and scheduled to a SQL Server agent job. The error that is being returned isn't permissions of authentication failure, but returns as the task times out. The package and project use encryption by password.
I have a Send Mail task as part of a validation process in a OnPostExecute event handler. All tasks preceding the Send Mail task get triggered and show green check mark next to them, but, for some reason, Send Mail task never gets one.
I checked the Execution Results tab and it doesn't show any indication of Send Mail task executing as a final step.
I checked the SMTP server configuration and did some test using localhost. I'm able to send as configured while using anonymous credentials.
I need to create excel workbook "SalesData.xlsx', which should have worksheet "POS". After creating excel file in specific location, script should be able to format cells as well.For instance, first two column type should be numbers. Here are the columns:
ColumnName : Type Id : Number AccountNumber : Number Name: Text Address: Text
Also, it checks for existing file . If it exist, then overwrite the file.
This is for SSIS 2008r2. I am generating flat files successfully with a datetime stamp (filename_yyyymmddhhmm). Now I need to append a MAX(FILEDATE) from the file. I have a query to do this, but am not sure about two things:
1) Is it advised to put the query in a Script Task (with db conn and so forth) or is it better to put it in an Execute SQL Task? I am thinking the latter but am not 100% sure.
2) How would I pass the result of this query (yyyymm) to the filename. The filename format would be (filename_yyyymm). I am assuming that I would probably need to pass the result into a variable/expression but am not quite sure of the steps involved.
I was given the following code for use in a Script Task, but it is written in C#: Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Company.File.ACH.NACHA file = new Company.File.ACH.NACHA(126, @"Data Source=SERVERSAND;Initial Catalog=Database;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=ID;password=pswd;"); Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â file.Create(); Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â FileInfo t = new FileInfo("C:/newfile.txt");Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â StreamWriter Tex = t.CreateText(); Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â //byte[] bytearraye = file.OutputArray; Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Tex.WriteLine(file.ToString());Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Tex.Close(); Â I've tried to convert this to vb.net for use in a Script Task, but I'm doing something wrong.
We have Sequence generator (Next Value) enabled for surrogate keys (SQL Server 2012). When we use the new SCD task, we get the following error:
[Insert Destination [42]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 11.0" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "NEXT VALUE FOR function cannot be used if ROWCOUNT option has been set, or the query contains TOP or OFFSET. ".
Is there any know issue that these two features [SCD task and Next Value]Â cannot be used together?
We are using an OLE DB Source for the Data Flow Source and OLE DB Destination for the Data Flow Destination. The amount of data being moved is about 30 million rows, and it is gather using a sql command. There is not other transformations in between straight from one to another. The flow starts amazingly fast but after 5 million rows it slows considerably. Wondered if anyone has experienced anything similar with large loads.
I am setting the 'To' field in the Send Email task using an expression in the expression textbox because the email address is received from a variable.But the taks throws error, as the 'To' field in the task is empty and only the expresssion field is filled. Is there any workaround ?
I have an SSIS package which calls a command line app.When run in BIDS, it executes normally. The command line app is passed the arguments, does what it needs to do.When called as a SQL Agent Job (by the agent, or by me) it fails when calling the app, giving an exit code of 2 (which is an exception trapped by a try-catch). The SQL Agent service is running under my user (it's a test environment). The argument passed (from the log) is valid, and I've run it against the app, it provides the appropriate output.I can't for the life of me figure out what's going wrong.The app is passed an argument of a path and a password, and applies the password to the file, using interop.
