I would like to create a log of what happens with each step in the package, at least start & start time and email that at the end of the package
Is this possible?
Thanks

I have a package that has multiple data flow tasks. At the end of a task, key data is written into a raw file (file name stored in a variable) that is used as a data source for the next task. Each task requires a success from the preceding task.
Here's the rub:
If I execute the entire package, the results of the package (number of records of certain tasks) differs significantly from when I execute each step in the package in turn (many more records e.g. 5 vs 350).
I get the feeling that the Raw file is read into memory before it is flushed by the previous task, or that the next task begins preparation tasks too early.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am running on Server 2003 64 (although the same thing happens when deployed on a Server 2003 32 machine)

I have created a Test SSIS Package within BIDS (VS 2K8, v 9.0.30729.4462 QFE; .NET v 3.5 SP1) that connects to our Test Listener.
There is only 1 Connection Manager Object, and OLE DB Provider for SQL Server.
The ConnectionString lists: Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Integrated Security=SSPI
The Test Connection within BIDS works.
The Package Control Flow has just 1 Object, and Execute SQL Task that performs an Exec on an SP that contains only a Select (Read).
The Package runs within BIDS.
I've placed this Package within a Job on the Primary Node. Ive run the job successfully using 32 bit runtime on and off. The location of the file on the server happens to be on a share that resides on what is currently the Secondary Node.
When I try to run the exact copy of this Job on the Secondary Node (Which has been Set up for Read All Connections; Yes), I get an error, regardless of the 32 bit runtime opiton. At this point, the location of the file is on the Secondary Node.
The Error is: "Login failed for user 'OurDomainAgent_Account'".
The Agent is a member of NT ServiceSQLServerAgent on both instances, and that account is a member of SysAdmin. Adding the Agent account as well, and giving that account SysAdmin, makes no difference either.
Why can't I get this to work?

I was asked to setup a job which will copy all backup files to a central location.
Now I wrote the script and its working good (part of a new job step)
But, I am now thinking to add some more logic in the job step:-
that is, if the previous job (server maintenance) is successfully completed with the backup job (if completed successfully), then only the copy to location job will start, if the other job step is failed, my copy bkp job will not run.
I trying to right some custom error handeling activex controls inside a DTS Package. The only problem is i need the specific name of the step that it is checking. The easiest way I found was to save the package to Meta Data Services and then look at the properties. The only problem with that is it doesnt specify what is what. its more or less a guess. and if the package is huge or has been through multiple revisions, it makes it even harder. anyone that could lend an hand? i though for sure i might be able to pull it from one of the sys tables in msdb, but there isnt anything for the individual steps, only the packages. Thanks in advance.

I am getting an error when I try to create a Step in a SQL Agent Job and select the Type "SQL Server Integration Services Package". As soon as I select this type in the drop down box, I get the error message:
The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E) (SqlManagerUI)
It then takes me back to the Step window, but I do not get the option to select packages.
I was able to do this in the past, and I do have jobs set up to run packages, so this may be something related to "permissions" or recent upgrades. I am a sysadmin on the SQL Server, but I have limited rights on the Windows server (I'm not a Network admin). OR, could this be related to recent service packs or windows upgrades?
Any help appreciated.
I have a SQL Agent job that runs at 4:15 in the morning. The job has 5 steps, each step only runs if the preceding step succeeds. The second step, which calls an SSIS package that does the main processing, appears to finish as it goes on to the next step; however, when looking in 'View History' there are 2 entries for this step - the first one shows it as still running (Circled Green Arrow) but with a start and end time. The second entry says the job succeeded.
I have been seeing conflicts, such as deadlocks, with later jobs. I suspect this job is causing the conflicts - maybe the package is still running in the background instead of having actually completed?
what conditions a job step my be showing in the job history as both running AND completed successfully?
This is a bug that I submitted to Microsoft. I wanted to see if anyone could assist me with a work-around.
1. Create a new DTS Package
2. Add an ActiveX Task and change 'Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success' to 'Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Failure'.
3. Running this package will result in a Failed package.
4. Save Package as 'Failure' to local server
5. Create another new DTS Package.
6. Add an 'Execute Package' task, and configure the properties to have it launch the saved 'Failure' child package.
7. Add an ActiveX task and then click ok to close it.
8. Select the Execute Package task (which executes the failure package), hold control and click the ActiveX task. Add an 'On Success' Precendence constraint from the 'Workflow' menu.
9. Now execute the package. Notice that the ActiveX task will execute even though the Execute Package task FAILED.
10. If you change the Precendence constraint from 'On Success' to 'On Failure' the ActiveX task will not run, because the package thinks that the Execute Package task completed with success.
In summary... if a child package, executed by an Execute Package task fails, the Execute Package Task ALWAYS "reports" success to the following precedence constraint and the package continues to run. Even if 'Fail Package on first error' is enabled. Although you will see that the task actually failed while watching the status of the package execution.
I am currently trying to write vbscript in an ActiveX task that will follow an Execute Package Task. I am trying to make the vbscript check and see if the previous task really did succeed or fail, and then make the ActiveX task succeed or fail as required to make the precedence constraints work properly.
I have replicated this problem on many different machines.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any ideas for my ActiveX task? I am trying to access the StepExecutionResult from the Execute Package task, and I have been unable to. If I can get the Step Execution reult, then I can in turn cause the ActiveX task to suceed or fail, based on the execution result of the Execute Package task.
Thank you for your time,

I have this SSIS package which just doesn't seem to run when executing as a sql job and I keep getting this error:
"The command line parameters are invalid. The step failed."
I read some of the comments in forums and they were suggesting to verify the command line for the sql job since there is known bug in the command line for sql job.
But that didn't seem to resolve it and the reason could be one of the variable values that I am trying to set.
In this package one of the variables that I am trying to set is the connection string and my command line looks like this
dtexec /SQL "TestPkg" /SERVER [SVRNAME] /MAXCONCURRENT "-1" /CHECKPOINTING OFF
/SET " package.variables[User::MetaDataConnectionString].Value";"Data Source=[SVRNAME];Initial Catalog=[DBNAME];Integrated Security=True;"
When I try to run this from the command line I get the error as:
Argument " package.variables[User::MetaDataConnectionString].Value;Data Source=[SVRNAME];Initial Catalog=[DBNAME];Integrated Security=True;""
for option "set" is not valid.
I think the issue is in the set parameter where it seems to be intepreting the ;'s in the connection string as part of its command (which I seem to be escaping by putting them in quotes but it seems to be stripping them off)
Has anyone else encountered this issue? Is there any other escape character that I should be using?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hi all,
I am new to SQL Server 2005 (but many years in SQL Server and .NET), and I am sort of having everything figured out for my company. However, one thing that still bothering me is that:
In the old Server 2000, you can execute a single step in a DTS package by right click the step and then click execute step.
In the new server 2005, I can only execute the whole package from the Management Tool and Edit the pack from VS 2005. Is there also a way for me to execute a single step in a SSIS package?
This is important for us, many thanks!
Am I correct in thinking that I need to place a dummy script component which does nothing in order to route logic depending on the value of a variable?
ie. I want to output to a file if a Parent variable is a certain value, or i want to load a table if its a different value.
I've deployed an ssis package to the database server through the manifest file over the network..
The package runs great when testing through vs.net on my client.
I've added the package to a job step in the sql server job agent.
When I test the new job, the package step fails, but there is no error or log information in the job history.
Wwhere can I get error information? And/or How can make SSIS error information more verbose in the job history?
Thanks for any help or information.
I have a Job Step defined to execute a SSIS Package. This SSIS package contains a Script Task. The Job fails with the message "Package execution failed. The step failed."

I have an issue with a DTS package. We create a zip file and then attach it to emails going out using DTS. The problem is that the attachment, when received, is named using the full path to the file, so it is quite long.
Has anyone seen this before? Is there a way out of this?
I am considering mapping a drive to the share holding the file to be named, but the fact is this will shorten the name but will still result in the path being included.
I am wondering if this is a bug, as I suspect this isn't the default behaviour.
Thank you in advance.

Hi!
I hope the answer is as simple as the question -- but after reading all the documentation I could find (understand?) and a lot of posts here, I'm no closer to achieving the goal.
I have a Visual C# app, DAYTRACKER, developed in VS2005. It uses a database with several tables constructed using SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
I want to deploy the app plus the database plus SQL Express to another machine, to be used by a single user (the administrator) with no need for network connectivity of any kind.
What I have so far is:
1. The application is successfully deployed from a CD-ROM, having used the Publish process within VS2005, and opens on the new machine -- without database connectivity, however.
2. SQL Express is successfully deployed (it deployed as a 'prerequisite' when I went through the Publish process in VS2005)
3. I manually copied the database's .mdf and .mdl files, using SQL Server Managers 'Copy Database' function, then transferred the copies to the new machine into the ..MSSQL.1MSSQLdata folder (where they appear along with the master.mdg, mastlog.ldf etc files)
Now, the DAYTRACKER application's DAYTRACKERConnectionString under 'Settings' in the VS2005 studio reads 'Data Source=DELL3;Initial Catalog=DayTracker;Integrated Security=True' (which are the appropriate parameters for the machine, DELL3, on which I wrote the program.)
The problem, of course, is that SQL Express on the new machine doesn't connect the application to the database. When I go to the 'SQL Server Configuration Manager' and go to the 'SQL Server 2005 Services' and double-click on the 'SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS)' icon (the service is running) and the user is logged on using 'Local System Account'. Under the 'Service' tab the Host Name is 'MUSIC' (which is the name of the new machine I've installed the app onto -- which of course is not the name - DELL3 - that the app's connection string is expecting). Under the 'Advanced' tab, I've tried correcting the name of the Startup Parameters default .mdf and .mdl entries to ..DayTracker.mdf and ..DayTracker_log.mdl, but the server won't start up after I make the changes.
What I'm hoping for: a step-by-step way of doing this type of deployment, preferable getting it all onto one CD-ROM, and installing it on the new machine so that it all works seamlessly from the start, not requiring any 'tweaking' of the SQLServer Express settings by the end-user.
But I'll take pretty much anything that fixes the specific db connectivity problem I've described.
Thank you very much.

I'm having some trouble with a new SQL 2005 Server. Database mail is configured/enabled. I've used SSIS to create a package that exports data to an Excel spreadsheet and e-mails the file to a user (currently, me).
The Send Mail Task will send a message with the file attached from SSIS while debugging the package but once the package is compiled (no errors compiling) and executed from a job, I don't get the mail message. SQL Server Agent reports successful completion of the job.
I decided to add the Send Mail step as an Execute SQL Task which calls the sp_send_dbmail proc. I can send mail with the attached file from Query Analyzer using sp_send_dbmail. It sends the message successfully in debug mode within SSIS as well. However, once compiled and deployed, it fails to send the message when called from a job. Again, SQL Server Agent reports successful completion of the job but the e-mail never comes.
MSSQL and SQL Server Agent are running under a domain account that is a local admin and member of the sysadmin role.
sp_send_dbmail is using a public profile in Database Mail.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Hi all,
In a foreachloop, I am inserting records into a flat file which is working fine. But the thing is that as the file grows, it takes longer for it to locate the EOF(End of File) of the flat file so as to insert the records.
I have around 70-100 lines written to the file at each loop and there are more than 20k records to be looped. wihich means that at the end I should be having 1400k - 20000k line in the text file.
One solution would be to insert the records at the start of the file itself so that it does not has to lookup the EOF each time before writting.
Another would be to generate separate files and then merge it.
Any idea how can this can be done?
Beside this I have to zip the file and then SFTP to a given address.
Any suggestion or help would be welcome.

View 6 Replies View RelatedWhen adding an SSIS step to a SQL Server Agent job, when selecting the location of a config file, the dialog lets you select from the database server you're working with. If selecting the location of the package itself (when the source is File System), the dialog lets you select from the machine where Management Studio is sitting instead of from the database server. Is that intentional? And if so, why? Should I just use a fully qualified file name for the package location rather than one using a drive letter?
