I have a fairly simple SSIS project that has nested parent-child packages.
I am trying to find the best way to manage the connections strings so as to make the package portable across machines and environments. Currently there is one "master" package which calls 6 child packages. 1 of these child package calls 3 child packages of its own.
For the database connections, I've settled on creating a standardized .dtsConfig file for each server/login. This is a relatively small number (intially 8) that I don't expect to grow much.
I've taken a different approach for the file-system connections used by Execute Package components that call the child packages. For each package that has child packages, I store all the connection strings (paths) to the child packages in a single .dtsConfig file. This works well for the top-level "master" package where I can pass in the .dtsConfig file (that has the paths to the child packages) as a run-time option in the Execute Package Utility.
However, this approach seems to fall apart for the 2nd generation package that in turn call 3rd generation packages because I don't know how to get the .dtsConfig file (with the 3rd generation .dtsx package paths) path to this downstream dtsx package.
Though I'm sure there are others, the only two solutionsI can think of now are
(a)don't nest packages beyond 1 parent/child relationship -- not really an option or
(b)Store the path of .dtsConfig files for each .dtsx package as an environment variable on each machine. This option is unappealing because it would require adding an environment variable for every .dtsx package that has child packages. I don't think it would take long for this to grow into a large number, that would make managing environment variables cumbersome.
So far my experience with SSIS has been that there was a simple solution for each scenario I had. So this hoop jumping I'm going through seems to indicate I am just missing something.
I have a Business Intelligence project containing 4 packages. One of the packages is a parent package that just runs the other 3 packages sequentially (passing in variables via Package Configurations).
When I set the properties of the Execute Package tasks in the parent package, it seems that I can only select SQL Server or File System locations for the child packages.
What I want to do is for the parent to run the packages in the Visual Studio Project so that I can debug the whole process. I don't want to be bothered deploying the child packages so that I can run them from the parent, at least not while I am debugging the whole process.
How do I get the children to run within Visual Studio as well as the parent? I can't for the life of me find anything on the MSDN about this.
I have one package that executes 4 child packages (5 total). All 5 packages are set to log information using a connection string with a variable set at runtime for the location. The child packages use a parent variable to get the log connection string from the parent package.
The parent package logs fine, but a strange behavior occurs with the child packages.
The child packages all log data to the location used in the configuration file variable during runtime (like it's supposed to). However, I would get an error right before the first child package finishes execution saying path not found. Just for giggles, I created the folder I use in my development environment on the production environment. The error goes away, but the log file is created in that folder with no data in it. Subsequently, the log file with the data is created in the location set in the configuration file. Now I have two log files!!!!
I am working on SQL server 2005 Reports. I have one report, one dataset is assigned to it, and one table which displays it. Now I come accros requirement that, the column value in the filter condition for the table is present in one textbox.
I can not use textbox i.e. reportItems in filter condition. Can someone suggest me how to use textbox value in filters?
I want to display parent/child records on report. I am not getting the proper solution.
The data is like this:
Sequence ItemCode IsParent
1 XYZ 0 'do not have child record
2 PQR 1 'have child records with sequence no 3
3 ASD 0
3 AFDGE 0
3 VDC 0
4 ASR 1 'have child records with sequence no 5 5 ASR 0
If IsParent = 1, that record has child records with sequence = parent sequenece + 1
I think u can understand the data I need to bind, and it is like:
XYZ
+ PQR
ASD
AFDGE
VDC
ASR
On + click we can do show/hide of child records.
I m not getting how to achive this in SQL server report. Can u give some hint?
I've found this problem that when I change settings in my configuration file it does not automatically apply to all child packages which uses the same configuration file if run from a job in SQL Server Agent. I need to open the package and save it again from BIDS. I use one "load group" package to execute all other packages.
Is there a way from the job configuration to set a setting so the package allways will have the newest configuration?
Has anyone had experience of using Parent/Child packages while enlisting them in Transactions. I tested this on a small sample and thought that I had got it to work, but in my real-world package it does not.
The parent package essentially calls three child packages. In each child package there are multiple DFT's that import and transform data into SQL Server. All data must be imported or not at all. Therefore I created a FELC container into which three Exec child package tasks were placed. The FELC is set to Trans Option 'Required' and the Exec child package tasks to supported. Unfortunately upon failure of one of the DFT's in the child the data was not rolled back.
So initially we had in terms of container hierarchy for the Trans Option property: Parent package Supported FELC for calling child packages Required Task execute child package Supported Child package Suppored Tasks Suppored
Looking at this more closely we thought that we would need Parent package Supported FELC for calling child packages Required Task execute child package Required Child package Required Tasks Suppored
for it to work. However, the latter now gives us failures with error messages on the tasks on the child packages. [Execute SQL Task] Error: Failed to acquire connection "Conn ECARS1CEDImport". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
Even more strange the first couple of tasks in the child pkg complete successfully even though they use the same connection listed in the error. These tasks also have Event handlers.
Given the sample data and query below, I would like to know if it is possible to have the outcome be a single row, with the ChildTypeId, c.StartDate, c.EndDate being contained in the parent row. So, the outcome I'm hoping for based on the data below for ParentId = 1 would be:
1 2015-01-01 2015-12-31 AA 2015-01-01 2015-03-31 BB 2016-01-01 2016-03-31 CC 2017-01-01 2017-03-31 DD 2017-01-01 2017-03-31
declare @parent table (Id int not null primary key, StartDate date, EndDate date) declare @child table (Id int not null primary key, ParentId int not null, ChildTypeId char(2) not null, StartDate date, EndDate date) insert @parent select 1, '1/1/2015', '12/31/2015' insert @child select 1, 1, 'AA', '1/1/2015', '3/31/2015'
I am running a parent SSIS package (running sp2, 9.0.3042) that calls several child packages.
On our development server, we now cannot run this because we get 1 or more of these errors:
"Error 0x80004003 while preparing to load the package. Invalid pointer . " "Error 0xC0011008 while preparing to load the package. Error loading from XML. No further detailed error information can be specified for this problem because no Events object was passed where detailed error information can be stored. . "
It is not occuring on the same packages. It varies every time it is run.
I can run every one of the child packages individually, using the same login ID that the parent is executed under.
The parent package works fine on my local machine and other servers running the same version of SSIS. Just not on this server.

hi, i have two tables i want the identity value of the parent table to be inserted into the chile table here is my code,but i don't know why it isn't working ! protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { string connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ConnectionString; string pcontent = TextBox1.Text; string data = TextBox2.Text; addtopic(pcontent,connectionString); addfile(data, connectionString); } public void addtopic(string subject,string connstring) { using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connstring)) { SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("INSERT INTO parent" + "(content)" + "Values(@content)", connection); command.Parameters.Add("@content", SqlDbType.Text).Value = subject; connection.Open(); command.ExecuteNonQuery(); } } public void addchild(string name, string connstring) { using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connstring)) {Guid id = Guid.NewGuid(); SqlCommand commandd = new SqlCommand("INSERT INTO child" + "(parentid,data,uniqueid)" + "Values(@@IDENTITY,@data,@uid)", connection); commandd.Parameters.Add("@data", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50).Value = name; commandd.Parameters.Add("@uid", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier).Value = id;
I have a parent/child relationship in a relational database broken out like this: Table Name: categories[category_id] int (primary_key NOT NULL),[category_name] varchar(50),[parent_fk] int The parent references the category_id in the same table to create the parent/child relationships. I can get all the bottom level categories by doing this: select category_id, category, parent_fk from categories where category_id not in ( select parent_fk from categories) Each bottom-level category has a count attached to it. The problem I have is getting the counts rolled up for each parent of the bottom level. A parent could/will have multiple bottom-level categories (and counts). My sql is a little weak, could you help me out? I can utilize everying in SQL 2000 (stored proc, UDF, anything). Thanks!
I want to find all the child of a node in a tree . A child can have multiple parent i.e 2 can be place under multiple parent . The folling is the data:
This structure requires complicated queries (recursive call) to find out all the child of a root node, so I have added another field for the root id. Is this a good relational database design ? kindly suggest.
In our database we have a list of devices in a "Device" Table, eachhaving one or more IP's located in the "IP" Table linked through aforein key on the DeviceID Column.I would like to retrieve this information as SuchDeviceID IpAddress1 10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.2, 10.0.0.32 ...345etc.Is it possible to do that without using cursors? Through a query?
Hello all, I'm having a real hard time trying to figure this one out. I'm trying to create a sql query that selects both the parent name and it's children, but it's got to loop through all the record sets to populate a drop down as an end result.
I think I thought this out correctly: I have 2 tables
category relationship
tbl category cat_id //auto int cat_name // varchar
relationship r_id // auto int parent_id // int child_id // int
both the parent_id and child_id are associated with the cat_id in my category table I could have 1cars // this is parent 2 audi 3 bmw 4 chevy
Table data example
r_id parent_id child_id **************************** 1 1 15 2 1 16 3 1 17 4 2 55 5 2 56 etc... I want to select both the parent cat_name from category and also select the child cat_name where the parent_id = #
I can do it manaully like this select cat_name, cat_id, parent_id , child_id from category, relationships where child_id = cat_id and parent_id = 1
what is the best way to loop through all the parent ids to find child category? Could this be done in a stored procedure?
I am having problems creating a trigger in SQL Server? I have 2 tables (parent and child) with one to many relationship. When I save a record, one row gets inserted in the parent and one to many gets inserted in the child. The trigger is on the parent table and it is trying to select the number of new records just inserted in the child table that meets a certain criteria. Since the transaction hasn't been committed I can not select the number of records from the child. Does anyone know how to handle this? My manager insists this be done in a trigger. Thanks, James

with an unknown number of children for each parent.
Then I would like to be able to query against this view with something like this:
SELECT * FROM FamilyView Where Child2 = 'Peter'
I have no idea how to write the SQL for this View. Is it possible? Is this possible without using a cursor?
Below is my sample data of my table named "Groups"
Code: with Groups as ( select 1 as GroupId,'Oracle' as GroupName,0 as IdParentGroup union all select 2 as GroupId,'Microsoft' as GroupName,0 as IdParentGroup union all select 3 as GroupId,'IBM' as GroupName,0 as IdParentGroup union all select 4 as GroupId,'SunMicrosystem' as GroupName,1 as IdParentGroup union all select 5 as GroupId,'peoplesoft' as GroupName,1 as IdParentGroup union all select 6 as GroupId,'mysql' as GroupName,1 as IdParentGroup union all select 7 as GroupId,'Nokia' as GroupName,2 as IdParentGroup union all select 8 as GroupId,'EShop' as GroupName,2 as IdParentGroup union all select 9 as GroupId,'Meiosys' as GroupName,3 as IdParentGroup union all select 10 as GroupId,'UrbanCode' as GroupName,3 as IdParentGroup ) select * from groups;

Code: with ExpectedResult as ( select 'Oracle' as GroupName,'SunMicrosystem' as SubGroup union all select '' as GroupName,'peoplesoft' as SubGroup union all select '' as GroupName,'mysql' as SubGroup union all select 'Microsoft' as GroupName,'Nokia' as SubGroup union all select '' as GroupName,'EShop' as SubGroup union all select 'IBM' as GroupName,'Meiosys' as SubGroup union all select '' as GroupName,'UrbanCode' as SubGroup ) select * from ExpectedResult;
some sample query to how to achieve this parent-child has the same table.
I'm an entre level junior programmer. My question is kind of confusing but I'll try to put it as simple as I can.
First we have a main table called "job1". This table consists the order information. The file_id is the unique id and the primary key for this table. This table also pertains other information such as customer data (max limit 5), job data etc. This table is actively (non-stop) used throughout the day.
We have a non-interactive process which will take customers information from the main table and insert into the child table table "jobcust". Jobcust would have file_id, cust, cust_type. For example, if Job1 table had fiel_id=100 and cust1="Tom" and Cust2="David", now Jobcust will have two records file_id, cust1 and file_id,cust2. The main problem is the child table needs to be updated right away and our non-interactive process is good at doing that.. but it is causing a major DATA LATENCY. I would like to ask you all, if you know any better way of doing this without any process.. like in the back end with a trigger/procedure or something like that.
I am importing data from a paradox table and trying to clean it up. I have this query that finds all the child records that are not in the parent table.
Select MemberID FROM memtype AS a WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM members AS b WHERE a.MemberID IN (b.MemberID));
Now I'm trying to delete all those child records instead of just selecting them so I tried...
Delete MemberID FROM memtype AS a WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM members AS b WHERE a.MemberID IN (b.MemberID));
I have a parts table which has partid (GUID) column and parentpartId (GUID) column. Need to copy the records to the same table with new GUIDs for partids. How to do that? cursor or temp tables?
I have an application that has an existing query which returns org units (parent and child) from organization table with orderby on createddate + orgid combination.
Also I added another log table Organization_log with exact columns as Organization table and additional 'IS_DELETED' bool column.
WITH Org_TREE AS ( SELECT *, null as 'IS_DELETED', convert (varchar(4000), convert(varchar(30),CREATED_DT,126) + Org_Id) theorderby FROM Organization WHERE PARENT_Org_ID IS NULL and case_ID='43333'
[code]...
I need to modify the query:
1. To display the records both from the Organization table and Organization_Log table. 2. The orderby should be sorted on 'Organization Name' asc and it should follow the child order in alpha sort as well.
I am wondering if there is a way to insert one parent record with multi child records in one transaction? I am using dataset to update my database. I want to use transaction so if one record insert fails all the transctions rollback.
I think I might know the answer to this, but I wanted to see if any one has come up with a slick idea for enforcing this relationship. If I have two tables and one is dependent on the other (parent-child relationship), how can I enforce that every parent record has a corresponding child record? Here is a code example
USE tempdb
GO
CREATE TABLE dbo.Parent ( ParentId int NOT NULL )
ALTER TABLE dbo.Parent ADD CONSTRAINT PK_Parent PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (ParentId)
CREATE TABLE dbo.Child ( ParentId int NOT NULL ,ChildId int NOT NULL )
INSERT INTO dbo.Parent VALUES (1) INSERT INTO dbo.Child VALUES (1,1) INSERT INTO dbo.Parent VALUES (2) INSERT INTO dbo.Child VALUES (2,2) INSERT INTO dbo.Child VALUES (2,1) INSERT INTO dbo.Parent VALUES (3)
SELECT p.ParentId, 'I SHOULD HAVE A DEPENDENT RECORD' FROM dbo.Parent p LEFT JOIN dbo.Child c ON p.ParentId = c.ParentId WHERE c.ParentId IS NULL
ParentId 3 should have a child record associated with it. I am assuming that these are my choices:
1) code all inserts to the parent table along with a insert to the child table and wrap those in a transaction
2) place a trigger for insert on the parent table that ensures that the child table is populated after data for the parent.
Here is the gotcha, we will be using a middle-tier data access layer (nhibernate or dlink) so .NET application developers will be creating the data modifications at the transactional level. Also there might be several ongoing ETLs that populate this schema as well, so multiple points of entry and seperate code blocks. I don't want to hide business logic within triggers.
I assume that all our coders are competent and could enforce this properly via code, but I know that mistakes happen. Has any one come across this situation and have a solution for enforcing the integrity of the schema with constraints?
how can we delete parent table as well as child table using a single query applied on parent table, can someone please help me onn this topic? it will be very nice of you guys.
so if i give input say categoryid=1[This falls under main category-boxing] i need to get result as 1 boxing [main category] 4 mayweather [sub category] 5 tyson [sub category] 6 clinton woods [sub category]
if i give categoryid=5[Note:Tyson] result should be as 1 boxing [main category] 5 tyson [sub category]
dear friend,, i have two table.in my first table id is primarykey and in my second table id if foreign key. so my need i have to use one query to delete the primary key table values. so if i am deleting one id in primary key table the child in the second table has to be deleted automatically.if parent get deleted the child should get deleted automatically. so plese help me to do this please give me sample query please
Greetings,I just wanna know if anyone can tell me how to get all user definedtables in parent-then-child manner. I mean all the parents should belisted first and then childs.I dont think there is any direct way to do this, but i am not able toform any sort of query to achieve this.Any help will be greatly appreciated.TIA
