Invalid Character In Flat File Or Turncate Problem
Dec 15, 2006
My source is a csv flat file. Currently I use that same flat file on SQL 2000 and SQL 2005.
On SQL 2000 it runs fine and it inserts that character as part of the string (varchar), however, it gives me truncate error on sql 2005. I already use the "Suggest Types...." and my Output columns have the correct lenght (specially that lehght of that column is only 30 char which is less than the default anyways). If I remove that character it runs fine for that column.....
This is the values that I get in my flat file for the trouble coulmn is "ATTN: JON OLSEN â CTRL8 "
And the error that I get when running the SSIS is
[Flat File Source OrderDetail [1]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "Column 15" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".
[Flat File Source OrderDetail [1]] Error: The "output column "ShipToAddr1" (63)" failed because truncation occurred, and the truncation row disposition on "output column "ShipToAddr1" (63)" specifies failure on truncation.
A truncation error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
[Flat File Source OrderDetail [1]] Error: An error occurred while processing file "C:Inetpubftprootorderdetail.csv" on data row 6.
Hi all--Given a table called "buyers" with the following column definitions in a SQL Server 2005 database:
[BUYER] [nvarchar](40) NULL,
[DIVISION] [nvarchar](3) NULL,
[MOD_DATE] [datetime] NULL
This table is laden with Unicode data and the MOD_DATE contains no data--not even NULL values, and is giving me a headache as a result. I can export this data fine to a text file, but when I create an SSIS package to attempt import to another table defined exactly the same as above in another place, I get the following messages:

Among the customizations in this package is the flag "ValidateExternalMetadata" set to False. The data itself is surrounded by " and delimited by semicolons for each field, with the header row set as the name of each column. It looks like this:
"BUYER";"DIVISION";"MOD_DATE" "108 Joon-Hyn Kim";"TAD";"" "109 Kang-Soo Do";"TAD";"" "FS07 John Smith";"TAD";""
...
Can anyone suggest a course of action on how to handle the error when the MOD_DATE field is completely empty?

I have a flat file which have some record data ex.
id name team 1 "A"my" "Bl"ue"s" 2 "Bob" "Reds" 3 "Chuck" "Blues" 4 "Dick" "Blues"
in above example first record contain invalid data so complete flat file will not import due to one invalid row or record in flat file. so is there any way to check invalid row from flat file and ignore it(write log about invalid record) and process importing flat file.
I am testing SSIS and have created a Flat File Destination. I defined the Flat File Connection as New for the first time and it worked fine. Now, I would like to go back and modify the Flat File Connection in the Flat File Destination Editor, but it allows only to create a New connection rather allowing me to edit the existing one. For testing, I can go back and create a new connection, but if my connection had 50-100 columns then it would be an issue to re-create it from scratch.
I have a situation where a tab limited text file is used to populate a sql server table.
The tab limited text file comes from a third party vendor. There are fixed number of columns we need to export to the sql server table. However the third party may add colums in the text file. Whenenver the text file has an added column (which we dont need to import) the build fails since the flat file connection manager does not create the metadata for it again. The problem goes away where I press the button "Reset Columns" since it builds the metadata then. Since we need to build the tables everyday we cannot automate it using SSIS because the metadata does not change automatically. Is there a way out in SSIS?
I am transferring data from an OLEDB source to a Flat File Destination and I want the column width for all of the output columns to 30 (max width amongst the columns selected), but that is not refected in the Fixed Width Flat File that got created. The outputcolumnwidth seems to be the same as the inputcolumnwidth. Is there any other setting that I am possibly missing or is this a possible defect?
I m using SSIS and i am transfering the data from Flat File Source to the OLE DB destination File. The source file contain some corrupt data which i am transfering to the other Flat file destination file.
Debugging is succesful but i am not getting any error output in the Flat file destination file.
i had done exactly which is written in the msdn tutorial of SSIS.
Plz tell me why i am not getting the error output in the destination flat file?
Trying to generate a report (using WebForm ReportViewer, from dynamically created RDL report and SQL Server 2005 OLAP cube), if a database field contains control characters (code < 0x20), Reporting Services generate following message:
' ', hexadecimal value 0x02, is an invalid character. Line 1, position 2376.
Is it possible to ignore that? I don't care if browser shows an octopus, the report must work.
I'm getteing an error saying "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid character value for cast specification" when i try to debug a store procedure. The Store Procedure parameters are as below. PROCEDURE clCreateUnpostedTrxEarnType ( @SERIES int, @PERIODID int, @YEAR int, @PTRATIO float, @CPTYPE int, @CPTRXTYPE int, @Startdate datetime, @Enddate datetime, @O_iErrorState int = NULL output )
I am using the backend SQLServer with Powerbuilder, I write a stored procedure and tried to create a datawindow to use that procedure but failed, it returns error code 22005 -Invalid Character value for cast specification. I tried to change any setting in ODBC but still failed.
accessing through ODBC a frond end application which is running on MS SQL Server 2005, works just fine with a specific setup as concerned as the decimal/thousands separators ("," for thousands and "." for decimals). If i switch these settings alternatively ("." for thousands and "," for decimals), i get this error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid character value for cast specification.
I tried to search forum and internet but no luck. Thanks in advance
hello, i have a problem with SQL Server Agent. Sometimes, when a scheduled job runs i get this error:

End Error Error: 2008-03-13 06:04:50.52 Code: 0xC0209029 Source: Load Current OLE DB Destination [124]
the code i use looks like this
DECLARE @Report_date datetime SET @Report_date = dateadd(dd,-1,convert(varchar(10),getdate(),121))
select CollectDate = @Report_date
the destination column is datetime. Is this a known issue / bug? Because this doesn't happen everytime, and when it does happen all i have to do ia run the job again.
I wrote a CLR function, which is receiving some XML parameters. In certein situations it gives me the following error message:
Msg 6522, Level 16, State 1, Line 58 A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user-defined routine or aggregate "svmScale": System.Xml.XmlException: Invalid character in the given encoding. Line 1, position 27. System.Xml.XmlException: at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(Exception e) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(String res, String arg) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.InvalidCharRecovery(Int32& bytesCount, Int32& charsCount) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.GetChars(Int32 maxCharsCount) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ReadData() at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseText(Int32& startPos, Int32& endPos, Int32& outOrChars) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseText() at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseElementContent() at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Read() at System.Xml.XmlTextReader.Read() at System.Xml.XmlWriter.WriteNode(XmlReader reader, Boolean defattr) at System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlXml.CreateMemoryStreamFromXmlReader(XmlReader reader) at System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlXml..ctor(XmlReader value) at UserDefinedFunctions.svmScale(SqlXml sql_problem, Boolean perChannel, Single x_factor, Single y_factor)
If I cahnage one of the zeros in the given tag, the error message disappears. If i cut the given tag, the error message disappears. If I cut the given tag, and then paste the previous one in place of it, the error message APPEARS. So my conclusion is, that any tag can be wrong on a specific position in the XML. This makes me wonder.
Another wonderfull thing is, that if I take this CLR function, and the same TSQL code, and I do run it on my notbook with my SQL Express, no error message. But if I try to use it on the server, with SQL 2005 it drops me this error message. The resulting XML is coming from an SELECT FOR XML AUTO, so i suspect it not having illegal characters inside. This is probably true, becouse the above replace procedure can make the message disapear.

I have a Data Flow task that is simply copying data from table A to table B. (there is a derived column in between however)
All the columns in table A are varchar(255). The columns in table B vary: floats, decimals, etc
However, I am getting a bazillion errors when I run this, each of them to the effect that:
Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available.

I don't understand why this is happening... I've succesfully run similar scenarios with other packages, ie) moving data from one table to another table even though the tables have different data types.
if the variable contains any of the character that is not present in the following Below table then it should display "InValid Character" else "valid Character"
DECLARE @MyString VARCHAR(100) SET @MyString = 'ABC$[' select case
First, a couple of important bits of information. Until last week, I had never touched SISS, and therefore, I know very little about it. I just never had the need to use it...until now. I was able to convert my first 3 flat files to SQL2005 tables by right clicking on "SISS Package" and choosing "SISS Import and Export Wizard". That is the extent of my knowledge! So please, please, please be patient with me and be as descriptive as possible.
I thought I could attach some sample files to this post, but it doesn't look like I can. I'll just paste the information below in two separate code boxes. The first code box is the flat file specifications and the second one is a sample single line flat file similar to what I'm dealing with (the real flat file is over 2 gigs).
My questions are below the sample files.

As you can see, each entry could have any number of records and multiples of some of the record types, with one exception, every entry must have a "01" record and can only have one "01" record. Oh, and each record has a length of 400.
I need to get this information into a SQL 2005 database so I can create a front end for accessing the data. Originally, I wanted one line for each account and have null values listed for entries that don't have a specific record. Now that I've looked at the data again, that doesn't look like a good idea. I think a better way to do it would be to create 5 different tables, one for each record type. However, records 2 through 5 don't have anything I can make a primary key. So here are my questions...
Is it possible to make 5 tables from this one file, one table for each of the record types?
If so, can I copy the Account number in record 01, position 13-19 in each of the subsequent record types (that way I could link the tables as needed)?
Can this be done using the SISS Import and Export Wizard to create the package? If not, I'm going to need some very basic step by step instructions on how to create the package.
Is SISS the best way to do this conversion or is there another program that would be better to use? I know this is a huge question and I appreciate the help of anyone who boldly decides to help me! Thank you in advance and I welcome anyone's suggestions!
I'm usung bcp to move data from one table to another. 202 million rows. The source/original table had 32 fields. The new table has 33 fields. I added a PK column to the destination/new table. The new PK column is the first field in the new table, it is set to autoincrement by 1 on each insert. The data file only has 32 fields of data per row.
The error is :SQLState = 22018, NativeError = 0 Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Invalid character value for cast specification

I'm working on a database conversion from Sybase to SQL Server 2005 and have hit a wall with a character conversion problem when reading non-ASCII characters (encrypted password string) via JDBC.
My application runs on Solaris and accesses a SQL Server 2005 database via the Microsoft JDBC driver. The server was unfortunately specified as having a SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS collation at installation time, and the database being accessed has taken this default. After creation the data was migrated across via DTS.
The invalid character is a dagger ' '. When read over JDBC it is converted to a question mark '?'.
In my original environment a Sybase database was accessed via JDBC driver from Solaris and the correct value was returned. The Sybase database used Latin1_General_BIN as it's collation. By way of experimentation I have modified the default collation sequence within the SQL Server 2005 database, and created a new table to hold the password. I am then able to correctly return strings containing this character from within SQL Server Management Studio, but the same problem still exists when accessing it via JDBC.
I am not sure where to focus my investigation and would be grateful for any useful pointers/advice. To me it looks like it's a JDBC driver issue as with the change in collation it works from a non-JDBC client.
I have a question regarding the running of a procedure from VC++ in SQL server.
well this is the scenario.
i have a procedure in SQL server and i am running that thru my VC++ code. :eek: i have a recordset class and i create an object of it and then do a obj.Open(). the procedure is fetching 24 records correctly in the query analyser and in my while(!(obj.IsEOF())) loop it gets the first record correctly but the moment it encounters obj.MoveNext(); it bombs and gives me the following error..
"Invalid Character value for cast specification ".
Hi,I used SQL Server 2000 Personal Edition. I created a stored procedurehaving input parameters as smallint,tinyint,char,varchar andsmalldatetime. When I executed it by Query Analyzer, it's ok.

How do I fix this problem?TIAKrungPS: One of input parameters was smalldatetime, but I casting it in ASPas date as:Const adDate=7datetxt='2004/6/28'cmd.Parameters.Append cmd.CreateParameter("CoopId",adChar,adParamInput, 8, coopid)cmd.Parameters.Append cmd.CreateParameter("Addr",adVarChar,adParamInput, 100, addr)...cmd.Parameters.Append cmd.CreateParameter("Cdate",adDate,adParamInput, , datetxt)....cmd.execute
Hi, I'm a new DBA and am a rookie when it comes to working with SQL Server 2005. I have been tasked with transfering an Access database to SQL Server 2005. Now I understand to use the import/export wizard, but am having problems fixing an error I am receiving. Here is the error...

Here is the short version of the error. I realize that there is an error with the conversion and the error is in tblResource in column Contract Start Date. It is still transfering the column over, and on spot check they seem fine. Should I be really worried about an error? Or is there something that I can do with the Access or SQL server database to fix this?

Hello, I am running out of ideas on how to get SSRS to work. I am trying get this setup with the intention to replace our Crystal Reports server. Currently I have set up the RS Virtual Directory on a Win XP box. The ReportServer database sits on another SQL2000 box.
I can connect to the http://localhost/ReportServer/ on the XP box to display the page the depicts "Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Version 9.00.2047.00"
When I connect to the http://localhost/Reports/, I get this error "A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource 'http://leej/Reports/'. Line 1, Position 2" I checked my IIS Virtual Directory properties for Reports and ASP.NET is set to v2.0.50727. I also executed "aspnet_regiis.exe -i" in the "C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727" directory.
Any thought on how to fix this? I hate to let this blocker deters us from deploying SSRS.

An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component. There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure."
I read related posts but could not figure out the error?
How can I take this example Flat file and parse out each section to a new flat file? Each section starts with HD (header row)
http://www.webfound.net/flat_file_example.txt
e.g. an example output file based on above (cutting out the first section) would be:
http://www.webfound.net/flatfile_output.txt
Also, I'll need to grab a certain value in each header row (certain position in the 100 byte header row) to use that as part of the filename that's outputed. I assume it would be better to insert these rows into a temp table then somehow do a search on a specific position in the row...but that's impossible? The other route is to insert each row into a temp table separated out by fields but that is going to be too combursome because we have several formats to determine separation of fields based on the row type so I'd have to create many temp tables and many components in SSIS when all we want to do is again:
1) output each group (broken by each header row) into it's own txt file
2) use a field in the header row as part of the name of the output txt file (e.g. look at the first row, whcih is a header row in flat_file_example. txt. I want to grab the text 'AR10' and use that as part of the filename that I create
Any suggestions on how to approach this whole process in SSIS...the simplest approach that will work ?
I have a package in which there are only one Data flow Task and it has only three components. 1) Source , which is a SQL db 2) destination and 3) OLE DB Destination flat file Error output file. I want the error file to be created ONLY if there is any error while dumping the data into destination DB. But , the issue is, the error flat file is being created inspite of No error while dumping the data from Source to Destination.
Need to know how I can get the dynamic filename created in the FlatFile destination for insert into a package audit table?
Scenario: Have created a package that successfully outputs Dynamiclly named flat files { Format: C:Test’Comms_File_’ + ‘User::FileNumber’+’_’+Date +’.txt’
E.g.: Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt etc} using Foreach Loop Container :
* Enumerator Set to: “Foreach ADO Enumerator” with the ADO object source variable selected to identify how many total loop iterations there are i.e. Let’s say 4 thus 4 files to be created
*Variable Mappings : added the User::FileNumber – indicates which file number current loop iteration is i.e. 1,2,3,4
For the DataFlow task have a OLDBSource and a FlatFile Destination where Flat File ConnectionString is set up as:
