Looping Over Files Not Available In My Ssis
May 22, 2006
I'm downloading zip'd files and would like to loop through each file that was downloaded. I'd also like to unizip each file and append all of them to one file. I have a dos batch that is fairly simple and would like to emulate it using ssis. Here is what the dos batch file looks like.
DATE /T >%TEMP%D.txt
FOR /F "usebackq tokens=2,3,4 delims=/, " %%i IN ("%TEMP%D.txt") DO SET fname=TAMF_162%%i%%j%%k-%%k.zip
ECHO xxx>zzzzz
ECHO xxxxx>>zzzzz
ECHO BINARY>>zzzzz
ECHO GET %fname%>>zzzzzz
ECHO QUIT>>zzzzz
FTP -s:zzzzzzz ftp.aaaaa.com
PKUNZIP -o -xxxxxxx downloadedfile_1~1.ZIP
DEL TAMF_1~1.ZIP
DEL zzzzzzzz
EXIT

HI:
I am trying to loop through files in a directory. The tricky part here is that the last part of the filename has seconds, and I never know what that is. I need to use some sort of wildcard I think here. Basically I have a directory with these files:
Export20080112_01_00_08.csv
Export20080113_01_00_06.csv
Export20080114_01_00_03.csv
Once you have got the YYYYMMDD part you have a unique file, so the rest I don't care about. If I could just open the files the way you use a wildcard when you do Windows file searches I could store these in a table:
Export20080112*.csv
Export20080213*.csv
Export20080114*.csv
then use the For Each Container in SSIS for ADO and loop through the filenames. The other option is to use the For Each File but that has to loop through all the files.
Is there a good way to do this using a wildcard?
Thanks,
Kayda

how to loop through files by date using a for each loop container
for example if i have files with names
filex_20080405103050
filex_20080405103055
filex_20080405103520
then the file filex_20080405103050 should be picked and loaded first.

I have this following code here...
Code Snippet
SET @SQL = 'Select * FROM IdentipassNew.dbo.CBORD_Interface_Final'
SET @BCPBody = 'bcp "' + @SQL + '" queryout "d:smartcardcbordudfcbordbody.txt" -T -fc:cpbody.fmt'
Problem is, there is over 85,000 records in that set and that is too big for the text file, so I was wondering if it would be possible to select like 30,000 records output those to a text file, then select the next 30,000 and create another file, then finally get the remaing records and put that in another text file. Can someone point me in the right direction as to how to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance.

Currently looping through the set of flat files like CHK0604, CHK0611, CHK0618, and CHK0625 from the source folder C:SOURCE
OBJECTIVE within the flat file if any records/rows cause error i have to move the bad data into separate folder C:ERROR
STEPS TAKEN
1) In FOREACH LOOP component i specified the variable User:: sourceFilePath for my source file CHK0604 etc. location C:SOURCE. The loop walkthrough each file in C:SOURCE and if no error then moves the flat file into another folder C:ARCHIVED. This task is perfectly working.
2) Within the dataflow I am diverting the the bad rows from "conditional component" into "Flat File Destination" Component.
3) "Flat File Destination" Connection manager i set the expressions as @[User:: sourceFilePath] +"_Error.TXT".
ISSUE
Because of point (3) the error file is created in the SOURCE flat file location C:SOURCE.
QUESTION
1) My error file name should be CHK0604_Error, CHK0611_Error, CHK0618_Error, CHK0625_Error created in another folder C:ERROR.
2) How to move the bad data into another directory while looping through a set of FLAT FILES ?
3) If i have to create another variable like @[User:: ErrorFilePath] where to create ? How to use the source file title as the title of error file.?
Thanks for the help

I have a master table containing details of over 800000 surveys made up of approximately 400 distinct document names and versions. Each document can have as few as 10 questions but as many as 150. Each question represents one row.
My challenge is to create a separate spreadsheet for each of the 400 distinct document names and versions containing all the rows and columns present in the master table. The largest number of rows would be around 150 and therefore each spreadsheet will not be very big.
e.g. in my sample data below, i will need to create individual Excel files named as follows . . .
"Document1Version1.xlsx" containing all the column names and 6 rows for the 6 questions relating to Document 1 version 1
"Document1Version2.xlsx" containing all the column names and 8 rows for the 8 questions relating to Document 1 version 2
"Document2Version1.xlsx" containing all the column names and 4 rows for the 4 questions relating to Document 2 version 1
I assume that one of the first things is to create a lookup of the distinct document names and versions assign some variables and then use this lookup to loop through and sequentially filter the master table data ready for creating the individual Excel files.
--CREATE TEMP TABLE FOR EXAMPLE
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#excelTest') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #excelTest
CREATE TABLE #excelTest (
[rowID] [nvarchar](10) NULL,
[docName] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[Code] .....
--Output
rowIDdocNamedocVersionquestionblankField
1document11q1NULL
2document11q2NULL
3document11q3NULL
4document11q4NULL
5document11q5NULL
6document11q6NULL
[Code] .....

I am attempting to use the foreach loop structure in an SSIS package toloop through however many Excel files are placed in a directory andthen perform an import operation into a SQL table on each of thesefiles sequentially. The closest model for this that I was able to findin the MS tutorial used a flat file source rather than Excel. Thatinvolved adding a new expression to the Connection Manager that set theconnection string to the current filename, as provided by the foreachcomponent. That works just fine, but when I attempt to apply the samemethod to an Excel source, rather than a flat file source, I cannot getit to work. I see the following error associated with the Excel sourceon the Data Flow page: "Validation error. Data Flow Task: Excel Source[1]: The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "ExcelConnection Manager 1" failed with error code 0xC020200." I think thatit's just a matter of getting the right expression, and I thought thatperhaps I should be constructing an expression for ExcelFilePath ratherthan the Connection String, but I have fiddled with it for hours andhaven't come up with something that will be accepted. Has anybody outthere been able to do this, or can perhaps refer me to somedocumentation that contains an example of what I am trying to do?Thanks for any help you can give.

I've been tasked with coming up with a process to delete old files out of a certain directory. It's prefered to have a configuration file to go in and be able to change the number of days to retain files (7 for delete files older than 7 days for example). I've been told I can do this with SSIS. Can anybody point me in the right direction to do this in SSIS or even in DOS? I don't know ActiveX scripting if that's what's needed in SSIS. I prefer doing something like this in DOS but not sure it's possible to automate. Any help is appreciated.

Folks -
Did you have any success when running bat files (Execute Process Task) from SSIS through SQL Server Agent jobs? My package will succeed when I run it from my machine, when I ask the DBA to run it manually from the Server but not when we run from a job.
The job will hang and the bat file does not seem to be executed. The executable property does evaluate to the right path and the package owner does have write/execute permissions in the folder where the bat file is located.
Everything I could find close to that is under <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918760>. Would you shed any light on this? When I run the same bat file from a DTS through SQL Server Agent job, it will work with no issues. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.

Hello,
I am having a bit of trouble with SSIS Configurations.
- In BIDS, I have added a configuration file and specified the properties I want to expose.
- When I build the project, I get the standard bindeployment folder which contains the package file (.dtsx), the configuration file (.dtsconfig) and the deploymentmanifest.
- Before deploying the package, I edit the config file to have the settings I want it to for the environment I am deploying to.
- The package deploys OK
- When I work directly on the SSIS server (64 bit), I can go into SQl Mgt Studio, choose 'run package' and when I look in the connection manager window all the settings are as I desire ( I havent had to add a configuration file manually)
- When I work on a client machine, I connect to the SSIS server and choose 'run package' - the properties/connections are the same as on the server but the values themselves are completely different.
Why is this? Why when I run the package from the client (32 bit) do the configuration values appear to be completely different? How can I run the package remotely and pick up the configuration values that I deployed with?
Or have I misunderstood this whole configuration function?
Please, please help!

We recieve about 4 million rows of data from a client per week. Each file is a complete snapshot of their data, we need to be able to find the rows that are different or new in the current weeks file compared to last weeks file.
Is this possible using 2 Flat file sources and some kind of sort/merge join?
If you are familiar with ORACLE or postgres its similar to a "MINUS" or "EXCEPT" respectively. Right now we load both files to separate tables and compare them in sql server which is very slow.

http://blogs.conchango.com/jamiethomson/default.aspx has a lot of great tid-bits for SQL 2005. I am currently on a tight deadine for 25 SSIS packages that need to be able to move from Dev to QA to Staging to Prod. For the life of me I cannot get any of the packages to *READ* the config files created with the package config wizard. All I want to do is move the connection string out of the package so we can change the config file and not have to touch (hand edit) each package. Any help is appreciated!

Hello everyone - wonder if you can help.
How do you process all files in an FTP directory - similar to the for each loop for files.
I need to be able to download each file and then move it to an archive folder on the ftp site.
Might also want to do some things in between.
I have a feeling it means getting the directory listing into a recordset or variable then enumerating that.
Sounds like a common requirement and would be quite easy by other means. Can't help feeling that SSIS has built in tasks to do it.

I could not find the exact details on how to create a SSIS script that would ftp files on these forums, so I am adding my code to help save time for anyone else that might be wanting to do something similar. Here is the VB code for my script task to FTP files (hope this helps someone):
' Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Script Task
' Write scripts using Microsoft Visual Basic
' The ScriptMain class is the entry point of the Script Task.
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Math
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Public Class ScriptMain
Public Sub Main()
Try
'Create the connection to the ftp server
Dim cm As ConnectionManager = Dts.Connections.Add("FTP")
'Set the properties like username & password
cm.Properties("ServerName").SetValue(cm, "Enter your Server Name here")
cm.Properties("ServerUserName").SetValue(cm, "Enter your FTP User Name here")
cm.Properties("ServerPassword").SetValue(cm, "Enter your FTP Password here")
cm.Properties("ServerPort").SetValue(cm, "21")
cm.Properties("Timeout").SetValue(cm, "0") 'The 0 setting will make it not timeout
cm.Properties("ChunkSize").SetValue(cm, "1000") '1000 kb
cm.Properties("Retries").SetValue(cm, "1")
'create the FTP object that sends the files and pass it the connection created above.
Dim ftp As FtpClientConnection = New FtpClientConnection(cm.AcquireConnection(Nothing))
'Connects to the ftp server
ftp.Connect()
'Build a array of all the file names that is going to be FTP'ed (in this case only one file)
Dim files(0) As String
files(0) = "Drive:FullPathYourFileName"
'ftp the file
'Note: I had a hard time finding the remote path directory. I found it by mistake by creating both the FTP connection and task in the SSIS package and it defaulted the remote path setting in the FTP task.
ftp.SendFiles(files, "/Enter Your Remote Path", True, False) ' the True makes it overwrite existing file and False is saying that it is not transferring ASCII
ftp.Close()
Catch ex As Exception
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Failure
End Try
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Sub
End Class

Hi,
I'm trying to join outputs of two text files combined in to one text file. The lenght of both the input text files are same (590)
For example,
If contents of text_file_1.txt is: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
and contents of text_file_2.txt is: bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
My final text file should be :
final_text.txt
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
I use flat file source for both the input file and then use "Union all" and then write out to final text file destination.
The issues is:
The second file (bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb) is coming up first in the output and then there is no carriage return.
My output looks like:
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb...(goes up to 590)aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
What is that I'm missing here. Could some one plese help.
Thanks

I have a number of XLS reports in template form. I want to move these to a new location on the File Server and after they have been populated move them to another location on the File Server.
I have seen some proposed solutions but I haven€™t found any that work. This should not be difficult and I envisage using a File System Task and a Foreach Loop Container. However passing the multiple file names to the File System Task errors repeatedly.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi,
I have created a job that will execute a SSIS package which will unzip some zip files. For unzipping we are using WinZip. In the package I have used a .Net script task for unzipping. This script is using WZUNZIP. When I am executing the package directly it is unzipping all the zip files. But when I am executing the job that will execute the SSIS package for unzipping it is going on with the execution and not unzipping the zip files. So finally I stopped the job.
Can you please help me to resolve this issue?
