Metadata On Data Flow Path Not Updating

Jun 18, 2007

I have a data flow task with a single source and destination task. I'm having the source task creating a table from a variable expression and the destination table also created from a variable expression. I'm running this under 3 scenarios in which each scenario has a different source and destination table. They are different in name but close in table structure with the exception of one column being different. The Metadata for the source flow path seems to be "sticky" in that it is not modifying the source table structure in the flow to account for this different column. I'm not sure how to adjust this. Any ideas? I've modified several properties in the task and data flow but nothing seems to make this adjustment in run-time.

Refreshing Metadata Of Transformations In The Data Flow

Jan 10, 2007

Hello,

I created a slowly changing dimension object and used an OLE DB Source object with a SQL Command to feed it. After all the SCD objects are created, I get a warning about a truncation which might happen.

I adjust the source query with the right converts, so the query uses data types and lengths which match the target table. I update the OLE DB Source with the new query. Column names are unchanged.

Now how do I get this data flow to reflect the new column lengths? Do I have to throw away all objects and recreate the SCD? The refresh button in the SCD object doesn't do it. This is also a problem when adding columns to your dimension table. Because I modify the stuff that the SCD generates, it's VERY teadious to always have to throw it all away and start over again.

Thnx. Jeroen.

Updating A Table By Both Inserting And Updating In The Data Flow

Sep 21, 2006

I am very new to SQL Server 2005. I have created a package to load data from a flat delimited file to a database table. The initial load has worked. However, in the future, I will have flat files used to update the table. Some of the records will need to be inserted and some will need to update existing rows. I am trying to do this from SSIS. However, I am very lost as to how to do this.

Any suggestions?

SQL Server 2012 :: Dynamically Map Metadata In A Data Flow Task

Oct 1, 2014

I am tasked with truncating and reloading tables from one server to another. Company policy prevents cross-server queries, but allows SSIS packages with cross-server connections. I am doing this for about 25 tables. I have the table names in a single table & I have created an FEL to execute tasks against each table one-by-one. It works fine to truncate all the tables. I run into issues, though, with the DataFlowTask. I'm able to tell it which server & table to dynamically connect from and to, but it doesn't know how to map the metadata. They're the exact same columns and field names in both source & destination.

Updating Existing Table With Result Of Data Flow

Dec 4, 2007

Hi,

I could use some help on how to save the result of my data-flow in an existing table.

I have created a data flow. I have no trouble storing the result of the flow in a new table. But I'm trying to store the result of my data flow in an existing table. (The flow involves fuzzy grouping, and i would like to store the result in the original table on which the fuzzy grouping was performed). But I cannot get it to work.

I can select the existing table as OLE DB destination. I can write an SQL to manipulate this table, but how do i address the result of the flow in the SQL?

Help is welcome here!

Hi Im using project real framework and have BIDS installed on same server as SQL Server 2005, when I run from BIDs all
good when I run from SQL Server agent via File system --the first package that master package calls fails
I have double checked the environment variables in Project Real and all good because otherwise BIDs would have failed
and of course in each package the expression data uses @[User::RootDir] to point to the package file path
@[User::RootDir] + \LoadGroup_Dimensions_Daily.dtsx

the issue is the package under SQL Agent is ignoring @[User::RootDir] + \ and finding an old package path somewhere in Bids SLN metadata

Any clues how can refresh the metadata of the package for deployment

thanks in advance

How To Pass Parameter Froon Control Flow To Data Flow

Feb 14, 2006

Hi, All,

I need to pass a parameter from control flow to data flow. The data flow will use this parameter to get data from a Oracle source.

I have an Execute SQL task in control flow to assign value to the Parameter, next step is a data flow which will need take a parameter in the SQL statement to query the Oracle source,

The SQL Looks like this:

select * from ccst_acctsys_account

where to_char(LAST_MODIFIED_DATE, 'YYYYMMDD') >?

THe problem is the OLE DB source Edit doesn€™t have anything for mapping parameter.

Thanks in Advance

HELP: How Do I Pass Variables From Control Flow To Data Flow

Mar 9, 2007

I have an Execute SQL Task that returns a Full Rowset from a SQL Server table and assigns it to a variable objRecs. I connect that to a foreach container with an ADO enumerator using objRecs variable and Rows in first table mode. I defined variables and mapped them to the columns.

I tested this by placing a Script task inside the foreach container and displaying the variables in a messagebox.

Now, for each row, I want to write a record to an MS Access table and then update a column back in the original SQL Server table where I retreived data in the Execute SQL task (i have the primary key). If I drop a Data Flow Task inside my foreach container, how do I pass the variables as input to an OLE DB Destination on the Data Flow?

Also, how would I update the original source table where source.id = objRects.id?

Thank you for your assistance. I have spent the day trying to figure this out (and thought it would be simple), but I am just not getting SSIS. Sorry if this has been covered.

Thanks,

Steve

Is There A Way To Set A Variable In A Data Flow From A SQL Statement (like In Control Flow)

Jan 12, 2006

I'm currently setting variables at the package level with an ExecuteSQL task.  This works fine.  However, I'm now starting to think about restartability midway through a package.  It would be nice to have the variable(s) needed in a data flow set within the data flow so that I only have to restart that task. 

Is there a way to do that using an SQL statement as the source of the value in a data flow? 

OR, when using checkpoints will it save variable settings so that they are available when the package is restarted?  This would make my issue a moot point.

Lookup Task Data Flow Transformation Causes Data Flow Task To Hang?

Dec 28, 2007

Hi,
I'm trying to implement an incremental data pull (Oracle to SQL) based on Andy's blog:
http://sqlblog.com/blogs/andy_leonard/archive/2007/07/09/ssis-design-pattern-incremental-loads.aspx

My development machine is decent: 1.86 GHz, Intel core 2 CPU, 3 GB of RAM.
However it seems the data flow task gets hung whenever I test the package against the ~6 million row source, as can be seen from these screenshots. I have no memory limitations on the lookup transformation. After the rows have been cached nothing happens. Memory for the dtsdebug process hovers around 1.8 GB and it uses 1-6 percent of CPU resources continuously. I am not using fast load to insert new records into my sql target table. (I am right clicking Sequence Container 3 and executing this container NOT the entire package in the screenshots)

http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg168/boston_sql92/1.jpg
http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg168/boston_sql92/2.jpg
http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg168/boston_sql92/3.jpg

http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg168/boston_sql92/5.jpg
http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg168/boston_sql92/6.jpg


The same package works fine against a similar test table with 150k rows.
http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg168/boston_sql92/7.jpg
http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg168/boston_sql92/8.jpg

The weird thing is it only takes 24 minutes for a full refresh of the entire source table from Oracle to the SQL target table.
Any hints,advice would be appreciated.

Need To Save A Value From Data Flow A To Use In Data Flow B

Mar 20, 2007

Good morning, all,

I am working on importing an Excel workbook, saved as multiple CSV flat files, that has both group level data and related detail row on the same sheet. I have been able to import the group data into a table. As part of the Data Flow task, I want to be able to save the key value for the group, which I will use when I insert the detail rows.

My Data Flow has the following components: The flat file with the data, which goes to a derived column transformation to strip out extraneous dashes, which leads to the OLEDB Destination component.

I want to save the value as a package level variable, so that I can reference it in another dataflow.

Is this possible, and if so, at what point do I save the value?

Thanks,
Kathryn

MetaData Data Mining

Oct 17, 2007

I am looking for anyone who can help me find an existing tool that will allow my programming team to build reports and data extracts simply and easily from a form of query builder. Unfortunatley, my database is structured as a metadata store using name data pairs. The actual structure is something like:
DateTime; Customer (integer); fieldname(string); fieldvalue (string)

In addition, I have another table that is structured similarly to store numeric data
DateTime; Customer (integer); fieldname(string); fieldvalue (Integer)

So, for the query tool to even start, it needs to scan both tables for distinct values in the fieldname column for a specific date/time range for a specific customer. Once that is done, it can display the field names and begin to search for the data I am looking for.

In addition, If I want the names of all people in the system who have bought a pie from my customer 1, the query tool will have to search for the fieldvalue "pie", return the key cells and then search for the fieldnames "Name" where the fields match (that or do it in a compound query).

Is there any tool anywhere out there that might have such capabilities?

Metadata Query - Navigate Without Data

Mar 5, 2005

Greetings, I'm interested in learning how to create queries against a cubes metadata. Specifically I'm interested in writing a aquery, using VB, to return a collection of bottom level members relative to a given member name.

Using the MDX Sample appication I can execute the query:

select
Descendants([Customer].[All Customer].[Canada],,leaves) on columns
from Sales

to get the members, however, the query appears to attempt to bring back data, thus is probably an expensive method.

It would be great to understand how to implement a meta data query without have to resort to recursion,

TIA

How To Update Metadata Data Types Without Editing XML Code

Feb 21, 2007

SSIS seems to automatically set the metadata type and for "typed" sources like database and XML connections it seems to take whatever the source column datatype is. If you use a cast or convert in the your source SQL query, it will not change the datatype of the metadata. This becomes an issue when doing things like merge joins on data from different sources and the join columns are different types (e.g. a ZipCode in one system is a varchar and it is an int in another system). I've been working around the issue by editing the XML code and changing the datatype there. Is there any way to do this through the GUI?

Subject: BCM Install Error - Logfile && SQL Path Path && MSSQL.1?

Apr 16, 2008

When trying to install Business Contact Manager (BCM) for Outlook 2007, the setup failed and I was refered to a log file in my Local Settings/Temp folder. The log actually says that Business Contact Manager was installed sucessfully! BCM is supposed to install SQL Express 2005 as an instance or as instance if SQL Express is already installed. There is an MSSMLBIZ instance in Services..

Who can I send the Log File to for analysis and the fix feedback?

When I first went into Computer Management and clicked on Services and Applications in the left panel, the error message appeared "Snap-in failed to intialize. Name: SQL Server Configuration Manager CLSID:{CA9F8727-31DF-41D2-975C-887D84903967} This message diappeared when I clicked on Services and Applications again. Under Services, there are 3 SQL services - one is an application that was uninstalled 3-4 weeks ago and I disabled this service. The other 2 are: SQL Server (MSSMLBIZ) and the other one is SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) When I tried to start either of the last 2, the message appeared: Services "Could not start the SQL Server (MSSMLBIZ) service on Local Computer. Error 3: The system cannot find the path specified. Under Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server/MSSGL.1 folder is mostly empty. So, it seems like the Path in the Registry is not valid and that nothing is being installed in the MSSQL.1 folder. If so, how do I fix this?

How do I get the BCM SQL instance to install and run properly? what do the messages in Services mean and how do I resolve these.

Thank you!

Error: The External Metadata Column Collection Is Out Of Synchronization With The Data Source Columns

Apr 17, 2007

Hello,

I have a SSIS package with a Data Flow task. This task transfers the data from SQL Server 2000 to a table in SQL Server 2005.



I deployed and tested this package on the Test Server. Then put this package in a job and executed it - Works fine.



On the production server- If I execute the package through DTEXECUI, it works fine. But when I try executing it through a job- the job fails and it gives me following error:

Description: The external metadata column collection is out of synchronization with the data source columns. The "external metadata column "T_FieldName" (82)" needs to be removed from the external metadata column collection....



What I don't understand is, why are there no errors displayed when I execute the package through DTEXECUI.



Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.



Thanks.

Data Flow Stuck In Phase The Final Commit Data Insertion Has Started

Jun 19, 2007

Hello,



I have noticed that for one of my data-flows, the process is really long during the phase "the final commit data insertion has started".

To be accurate, the process is fast until it reaches this phase. It happens often when I load millions of lines.



The extraction is done from a database SQL Server 2005 to a database SQL Server 2005, on the same server (with the SQL Server native provider).

I used a SQL Server destination but I have tried with an OLE DB destination and it is the same situation.



Why the process could be so long during this phase?

There is a way to optimised my package to avoid that?



Any idea is welcome.



Thanks.

Guillaume

Data Flow Task Error To Extract Data From Sql Server To Excel

Mar 28, 2008

Hi All,

I want to export data from SQL Server2005 to an Excel spreadsheet thru "Data Flow Task". I am using OLE DB for SQL Server for the source connection and a Connection To Excel as my destination source. The Excel spreadsheet (2003) exists and has the first row with column names. I don't have any warnings before trying to execute.

The SQL datable fileds are
i) ID - Int

ii) RefID
iii) txtRemarks - nvarchar(MAX)
iv) ddlWaterLevel - nvarchar(50)

While executing the tasks, I got the error
Error: 0xC0202025 at Data Flow Task, Excel Destination [427]: Cannot create an OLE DB accessor. Verify that the column metadata is valid.
Error: 0xC004701A at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: component "Excel Destination" (427) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC0202025.


After analysing I found in the DataFlow --> Excel destination --> Advanced Editor for Excel Destination, the default data type for txtRemarks shows as "Unicode string [DT_WSTR]". But this is supposed to be "Unicode text stream [DT_NTEXT]". Even if I change the data type in the design time, It doesn't accept.

Please do help me out.

I am having one store procedure which use to load data from flat file to staging table dynamically.

Everything is working fine.staging_temp table have single column. All the data stored in that single column. below is the sample row.

AB¯ALBERTA ¯93¯AI
AI¯ALBERTA INDIRECT ¯94¯AI
AL¯ALABAMA ¯30¯

After the staging_temp data gets inserted into main table.my probelm is to handle such a file where number of columns are more than the actual table.

If you see the sample rows there are 4 column separated by "¯".but actual I am having only 3 columns in my main table.so how can I get only first 3 column from the satging_temp table.

Output should be like below.

AB¯ALBERTA ¯93
AI¯ALBERTA INDIRECT ¯94
AL¯ALABAMA ¯30

How to achieve above scenario...
