Logging Difference Between Designer And SQL Agent Package Executions
Dec 12, 2006
After fine-tuning my package logging, I built a query against SYSDTSLOG9 that uses the combination of the OnPreExecute events and any subsequent event for each task to build a nice view of a package in progress, including the duration of each event. (Running tasks would have a row with a NULL EndTime.)
When running the package within the Designer, everything works as expected. Events are logged at the task level and everything bubbles-up to the package level.
However, when I run the package from SQL Agent (using the SSIS job step), none of my OnPreExecute or sub-component events are written. That is, I only get package-level OnInformation, OnPostExecute and OnError events.
This means when the job/package is executing, I can't directly see which steps are currently in progress nor can I get a duration for each step once it's completed. This will be very disconcerting for my teammates who will have to help support this at some point.
Any idea how or why there would be a change in behavior between these two execution methods?
Thanks in advance for any help. Until then, banging my head against the wall...

Hi,I'm looking for a way to log exactly which sql queries are executed on a specific asp.net page request. Actually I'm not looking for anything advanced here, just a log which writes all the queries to a text-file would be good enough for me. Does anyone know of a tool for visual studio that could help me with this or is there a way to build a logger like this by hooking into ADO.NET in some way? This would help me out a whole lot now as I with this log could see that my cache logic really is working as it should. thanks!

I'm looking for a facility similar to NT audit facility except for SQL Server 6.5.
Is there a tool or facility that will track when users log in (using SQL Server security), and either which stored procedures they execute or which tables they select?

Hi,
I have a file-deployed package which I need to call N times at once using DTEXEC. When I attempt to execute N instances of the package, the second instance doesn't execute. I can execute different packages at the same time, but never the same package more than once. Does anyone know how to get this scenario working? Just to clarify a bit more - I can call the package as many times as I like as long as I wait until the previous run of DTEXEC is finished. Please help!
Thanks,

How can I prevent a package, or a section of a package, from being run more than once simultaneously? The package makes use of a staging database table, and if two copies of this package are run at the same time, there will be a race condition and possible corruption of the data in the database table. I have also noticed that the SSIS logging gets messed up and starts overwriting itself if I have more than one of these packages run at the same time.
What I am thinking of should work the same way as a serializable transaction lock on a normal query, where one query has to wait if another query has a lock on the table. I don't want the package to throw an error, I want it to wait until the other one is done.
I have been trying to use transactions in a test SSIS package, but they are not quite doing what I want them to do. I put various SSIS steps in a sequence container and require a serializable transaction. I have also tried putting the transaction at the package level, but that is not preventing simultaneous package runs.
Is there a built-in way to do this that is easy to implement? Otherwise, what I could do is insert a flag into the database indicating that a package is running, then make sure to reset the flag on any error or on completion. It seems like this alternate method could be error-prone though.
I am using SP2.

Hi,
I decided to use the SQL Server log provider to store logging data of all my Integration Services packages. I also created some reports about this data for operating purposes.
I have a problem occurs the name of the executing package is not always written to the log,but the name of the single task which failed. But that is not very useful information for operating, because I do not see any chance to get the name of the package by the information which is logged in the sysdtslog90 table in the database which I defined for SSIS Logging.
How do I configure the package to always log the package information into the table, too?
Best regards,
Stefoon

While Creating a script task in Control Flow, I am getting "Package Validation Error". Here is the complete message:
Error at Validate File and Load Data: The task is configured to pre-compile the script, but binary code is not found. Please visit the IDE in Script Task Editor by clicking Design Script button to cause binary code to be generated.
(Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.VsIntegration)
As mentioned in the message, I opened the script IDE and added the code I need. When I close the VSA IDE, package designer displays the same error message.
The worst part of whole story is that if I close the package designer and reopen it, I find that all the code I wrote in the script task has been deleted by the package designer. This is not at all acceptable as I saved the package the and still lost all my work. I did all the coding from scratch for that task.
Please respond if anyone faced similar problem.
Thanks in advance!

PS: If any one from Microsoft is reading this, please see what you guys are coding there. Due to the buggy software you deliver, I am loosing my credibility.<P< P>

Is it possible to log the results of a SQL Agent job to a specific table?
I see there is a tick box for logging to a table for each step in the job but it does not allow me to tell it which table I want it to log to.
Can someone give instructions on how to log a SQL Agent job and/or steps within the job to a specific table?
Thanks

Hi all,
We're using SQL Server Compact 3.5 with Merge Replication.
I realize it's possible to turn on SQL Server Compact *Server Agent* logging but I was hoping there was a way to turn on *Client Agent* logging as well.
In a Microsoft webcast it indicates Client Agent logging can be turned on by creating a text configuration file named, "Calog30.txt" with the proper entries. I have tried this but it doesn't work. I also named the file, "Calog35.txt", but that doesn't work either.
These are the entries that should be placed in the configuration file (according to the webcast):
LogLevel=5
LogFilePath=.log.txt
WininetLog=1
Has anyone gotten Client Agent logging to work?
Thanks

Hi,
I'd like to know if there's a way to pass parent package parameters to a package executed by SQL Server Job Agent? It appears that sp_start_job doesn't have any variable that could accomodate this.
Hope to hear your ideas.

after installing the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Com feature pack and then restarting my management studio, I still cannot see or edit my dts packages. I also tried editing them in the integration services consule but no luck there. I see them under the msdb and have no option to edit them.
Has anyone got this utility to work?
Thanks,

Hi,
I have packages stored in SQL store. I was letting users run the packages from a .net app that I made with
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Now I have noticed this causes the packages to run on the client pc cpu, as well as the network traffic is done via the client pc, in my particular case this is slow.
From the doc and in this forum I have found that you can run a package on the Server cpu through sql agent, let packages be run in a sql job. after that you can start a package from an application with the SQL sp_start_job .
But How do you set a user::varibale in a package if you have to start the package from a sql agent job ?

I created a DTS Package. It worked fine if I execute the DTS from DTS designer. It failed after I right clicked to Schedule Package, and than right clicked on the job to Start Job from Management - SQL Server Agnet - Jobs. When I clicked View Job History, the error was "The job failed. The last step to run was step 1 (DTSPackageName).
Why did it fail from scheduled DTS? Thanks.

I am not sure where to ask this question. So I figured here may be ok
I have several DTS 2000 packages and I have SQL 2005 installed on my local machine. However the rest of the company is still using SQL 2000 (for now). So I do not want to convert them to ssis yet. One of the things we just did to the packages is make all flat files use \localhost and any servers point to (local). Now in ssis this works fine but using the DTS 2000 package designer it does not like either of these at all. The reason we wanted to do this is so when we switch out servers there is no changes to our DTS packages.

Hi,
When I installed SP1 on my SQL Server 2005, the performance of the package designer dropped enormously. I have to wait like 30 seconds after I drag-and-drop a datasource from the toolbox to the design area. Also it takes a very long time to run the very simple package. Not to mention opening some complicated package that was done before applying SP1. The package scheduled in SQL Agent went from 3-4min to 5-6min.
Can anyone address this issue? Maybe there's something I did wrong?
While installing SP1 I ecountered strange behaviour (some messages about file locking, rebooting and stuff), but in the end it said that it was successful
Best Regards

We have a package that has a connection called Load_DimItem.trc. We don't need this logging enabled for this package anymore. However, if I delete the connection, and delete the log provider (SSIS log provider for SQL profiler), I get errors when trying to close the package after debugging. I get: "Cannot detach from one or more processes. [3172] The object invoked has disconnected from its clients."
How can I get rid of this error?

I have an ActiveX task containing vbscript that when placed in a DTS package, will set all Connection and DataTransformation (DataPump) information correctly. Additionally, the package appears to work perfectly afterwards.
The Question:
Why when I go into the DTS Designer and open a transformation (Black Arrow) between connections - that I get the "Verifying Transformations" dialog with the three radio button options of "Remove Invalid transforamtions", "Change Source/Destination", and "Remove all transformations and redo auto-mapping"?
It appears that the SourceObjectName and SourceSQLStatements are getting correctly updated as well as the DestinationObjectName, etc.
Is there a property that is supposed to be set when I modify the source and destination properties in my code to prevent this dialog?
Thanks a bunch in advance for any assistance

Our Visual Studio installation suddenly starting producing the error below upon trying to open any .dtsx package; although by "suddenly" I'm sure it was due to some Windows update or other program install, update, or uninstall. I've spent two days uninstalling, reinstalling, and repairing everything that is seemingly related to VS, but no luck. I've searched the forums and could not find this specific error mentioned, although I have tried some of the suggestions to fix possibly related 'class not registered' errors, but again no luck.

Has anybody seen this issue already?
If you try to "enable memory restriction" from the Lookup component GUI you need to input both 32 and 64 bit size of maximum memory. However when clicking "OK" on the editor you get a message like :

------------------------------
Error at Update Execution Logs [Lookup folder path 1 [4429]]: Failed to set property "MaxMemoryUsage64" on "component "Lookup folder path 1" (4429)".

You can only set the properties directly for mthe Properties window (F4).
I think this is a post SP1 bug in Visual studio designer...

Hi All,
When the embedded DTS package fails at runtime, and logging has been enabled for the package (and all log events selected for reporting on for the package and the task), the DTS error (i.e. any meaningful errors) are not thrown up to/caught by the SSIS/outer level. All you get is something like:
COMException - error returned from a call to a COM component.
Does anyone have any comments &/or know to get errors thrown from within an embedded DTS package, thrown up to the wrapping SSIS package?
Cheers,
Tamim.

I am having the same problems as those in another post. SSIS package works fine when executed in BIDS and through execute package utility but it doesnt work when executed as a step in a job.
The other problem is that the logging also doesnt work when i try executing it as a job. So I have no clue about what to do without knowing what error it is. When I run the job it simply says the step has failed.
I have tried most of the solutions posted in other websites most of them to do with using proxies with credentials but havent hit a solution. I would love to get any input on what to do.
Thanks

All,
I am logging all the tasks in my SSIS package to SQL Server. For each task I am logging atleast the Pre-Execute, PostExecute, OnError events. For Script tasks, I have custom logging and I am logging the ScriptTaskLogEntry event too.
When I run the package manually from BIDS, the logging works great ! But when I try to run the package from a job or from the command line, the number of events that is logged greatly reduces. For eg. when manually run, I get 104 records in the log table but when run from the command line I get 23 records only. Most of the custom logging messages from the Script Task do appear. Its the pre and post-execute events that are skipped. Any idea why ?
Here is command line from the job. I also use the same command line with "dtexec" from the command prompt.
/FILE "\MyServerprojectsSSISPackagesIRRLoadingPackage.dtsx" /DECRYPT mypwd /CONNECTION "ATLSQLDEV01.SSAM.User1";"Data Source=ATLSQLDEV01;User ID=user1;Initial Catalog=SSAM;Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Persist Security Info=True;Auto Translate=False;" /CONNECTION CashFlowConnection;"\MyServerpublicReportingLoadingInProgress8634_Cashflow.txt" /CONNECTION "SMTP Connection Manager" ;"SmtpServer=ATLEXCH01;UseWindowsAuthentication=True;EnableSsl=False;" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /LOGGER "{59B2C6A5-663F-4C20-8863-C83F9B72E2EB}";"LogFile.txt" /LOGGER "{6AA833A1-E4B2-4431-831B-DE695049DC61}";"ATLSQLDEV01.SSAM.User1"

Hello.
I am using the "SSIS Log Provider for SQL Server" to log events to a table for "OnError" and "OnPostExecute" events of a package. This works as expected and provides a nice clean output on the execution steps of the package.
I am curious as to why I do not see any detail for any/all tasks that fall under the "Data Flow" section of the package though. For instance, on my "Control Flow" tab, I added a "Data Flow" task that simply loads a few tables from a target to destination server. However, there is nothing shown in the logging output. Just that a Data Flow task was initiated. And when I'm configuring this logging under "SSIS-->Logging" in the checkbox area on the left, you cannot "drill into" data flow steps.
Is there a reason why there is no detailed logging for Data Flow tasks? Would getting to that require me to create a custom log provider?
Thanks for the help.

I enabled logging by right clicking on the control flow and specifying a log provider.
after a while, i deleted the log provider from the tree view and the connection manager it was using from the connection manager collection.
now i cannot open the package.
here are the errors i can collect from the failure;
Error 1 Error loading ImportMedsSubmissionFiles.dtsx: Element "{A4F838A2-2660-4422-A0D2-669BAFBC6CAE}" does not exist in collection "LogProviders". Visual Studio 2005ProjectsMeds2ImportMeds2ImportImportMedsSubmissionFiles.dtsx 1 1

This occurs when CPackage::LoadFromXML fails. . Visual Studio 2005ProjectsMeds2ImportMeds2ImportImportMedsSubmissionFiles.dtsx 1 1
is there some file to edit or a way recreate or revive the package, even if it means just duping the package into believeing what it wants is there?
as a baseline altertnative, is there any way to retrieve the work?
it consists of a boatload of derived column transformations of way too many columns that i would really rather not rewrite, so if its lying about on my drive somewhere in an xml file that can be used to recreate what i had, it would be just ducky.
