One Package, Many Destinations

Aug 1, 2006

Hello,



I have made a package to import data from a flat file datasource to our development SQL Server database and am very pleased about how well it works.

Now, it's time to import these data into our pre-production database using the same package. I am still wondering how to parametrize the connection string so that I can switch configuration easily. I specifically want to avoid creating 2 similar packages to do the same job but with different destinations.

I have read about variables and configurations but I am still confused. They say that the package has to be reloaded or something for a change to happen. At best, it would be perfect to have a drop down list somewhere, select the correct database and hit a button to execute the package. I would be very interested in knowing if .NET could be of any use for this kind of job.

Where can I get information about this topic?



Thanks!

Cannot Have Two Flat File Destinations In A Package (possible Bug)?

Jan 4, 2007

During my development of a ssis package i've noticed that when creating two control flows that pulling data from seperate tables, each going to its own flat file, that the second keeps the attributes of the column names from the first. So when I create my second flat file, not only does it have the names of its correct columns but has the name of the the first flat file.

I'm hoping that I've explained the correctly. I'll provide more info "OR" I can provide the code to package if anyone would like.

Dynamic Sources --&&> Destinations, Do Package Configurations Help With This?

Mar 28, 2007

I have a dynamic flat file I need to import to a table (in the same format as the file). The problem, I'm realizing, is that dynamic column mappings are a pain with SSIS. I have to know the format of the flat file ahead of time, which I won't.

What are my options here? Can package configurations help with this?

Multiple OLD DB Destinations

Feb 28, 2008

Can you have more then one OLD DB desination connected to the slowly changing task for the NEW OUTPUT scenario. I know I can have more then one if they have different outputs...like New Output for one and the other have fixed attrib output or unchanged output.

I have a query that gets data but I want to insert that data in 2 different tables at the same time. I can not re-query to get the data since it may change the data I get the second time I query.

So if I have a query that returns a data set how can I insert into 2 diff tables?

Sources And Destinations

Nov 13, 2007

I have around 120 tables. I am using script component to pull the values from oracle stored procedures. I do not want to create 120 source & desitinations in my dataflow. Please advice how can this be possible with one script component and one oledb destination.


I noticed I can add mutiple outputs in 1 script component which makes the script component to work like a dataset (container of different recordsets (tables) ), if I am correct. Can this be redirected to an dynamic oledb connection.

Multiple Sources && Destinations...

Apr 13, 2006

Hello,

I am working on a typical data conversion project where we are migrating data from an old data model to a new data model, using SSIS. Both the DBs are in SQL.

Now we have a situation where say there are 25 source tables and 20 odd target tables.

For transporting data, we are using OLEDB Source & OLEDB Destination transforms. However, each transform maps to one view or one table. As a result, the Data Flow is really messed up with 45+ transforms in it. Is there an elegant way of doing this ? With say just one datasource or maybe fewer transforms?

Thanks,

Satya

Order Of Destinations In A Data Flow

Dec 15, 2005

Hi,

A long long time ago I asked for the ability to define an order in which you insert data into multiple destinations in a single data-flow. This was to get around the problem of loading tables in the same data-flow that have FK relationships between them.

My chosen alternative at the moment is to load the table with the unique key first and drop the data for the table with the FK into a raw file and load it in a seperate data-flow. Another alternative is to disable FK constraints and reenable after but I've chosen the raw file method.



Now that I'm using SSIS on a real project this is becoming a much bigger problem that I ever envisaged it might be. Its rare that I'm building stuff where I don't have to use raw files for this very reason and this means that I have god knows how many raw files hanging around all over the place.

I suppose the reason for this post is to flag the importance of this requested feature. I really hope that this makes it into Katmai. Or into a service pack would be even better!

Its a bit of a failing at the moment.



Are there any chances that this will make it into Katmai? its one of my biggest bug-bears about SSIS v1.

BI Dev Studio I See No DATAFLOW DESTINATIONS In The Toolbox

May 17, 2007

I just installed sql2005 and bi dev studio on a vista box. Then VS 2005 and all svc packs.
I create a new SSIS package but don't see any Data Flow Destinations in the toolbox while on the dataflow tab. I choose "show all" and don't see any data flow destinations anywhere.
I can use the wizard to create packages, and it adds destinations just fine.
Anyone have any idea what may be wrong?

HOW TO: Create Dynamic Excel Destinations

Jun 22, 2006

I have a ForEach Loop Container that is running from a Foreach ADO Enumerator with records telling me which companies have records to export. As I loop through I use a data flow task to export the records to Excel, I want to create separate Excel files using some of the parameters from my recordset as parts of the name.

I have DelayValidation=True for my DFT and my Excel Connection Manager, ValidateExternalMetaData=False for my Excel Destination Adapter, and an expression setting the ExcelFilePath and ServerName properties to the dynamic path & file name from variables.

The layout will be the same (i.e. metadata) for each file. The files are just getting broken up by company and service type and I want to use that in naming the files.

I am currently getting the following errors:

[EX_DST New Enrollments File [238]] Error: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E37.

[EX_DST New Enrollments File [238]] Error: Opening a rowset for "NewEnrollments$" failed. Check that the object exists in the database.

[DTS.Pipeline] Error: component "EX_DST New Enrollments File" (238) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC02020E8.

What do I have to do to create the new Excel File? I thought it would do it when the properties were set. Do I have to create the "table" for the worksheet named "NewEnrollments"? If so, how do I accomplish it.

Thanks in advance.

Spliting Flat Files Into Two Destinations

May 18, 2007

For some reason I am having a really hard time grasping IS and I have a task that I would imagine is easy.

I have a flat file source with 6 columns, I would like to import this file into two flat files. One file containing columns 1,2,3,5 and the second containing 2,4,5,6. I created the connection managers for both destination files, but I can€™t determine what transformation tool I need to accomplish this task? Could you help?

Data Flow Task Multiple Destinations

Sep 21, 2006

Hi,

The further i get with doing my current SSIS package the more i am starting to wonder about best practices and performance.

My current package loops through CSV files in a specified location and extracts events from these files. Each file contains multiple events which are a mixture of different types. Depending on the event there are a different number of comma seperated values. In the package i firstly set each event to one column seperated by a comma delimeter. I then create an array for the event which is split by the delimeter. In a script i weed out all elements of the array that are common to all events and set the remaining events to another array. After some processing i come to my conditional split transformation which splits the processing of each event based on the EventID. This is where i'm having doubts on whether i have approched the package correctly. There are approximately 60 different events so each one of these has a seperate pipeline to process the remaining parameters in the array and output them to the destination table. The destination table is differnet for each ID. Is it viable to have this amount conditions and paths when creating the pacakge and is this likely to have any detrimental effect on performance. Is there possibly another way that i could approach this problem?

Many thanks, i hope that made sense.

Extended Connection Managers For Data Flow Destinations?

Mar 13, 2006

It looks like you can only extended connection managers for data flow sources.

Is there anyway to develop a custom connection manager for the SQL destination in the data flow destinations?

I can€™t use hardcoded connection strings. I can€™t use configurations because they are not encrypted. I already have managed code that will give the corrected connection string. I already have a custom connection manager that I use from the data flow sources. I just need one for data flow destinations but I can€™t see a way to extend into the OLE DB?

SQL Server 2012 :: Handling Flat File Destinations Dynamically?

Feb 5, 2015

After performing a join operation on two tables i get the below resultset

pid, fname, typename, pname, pcost

1, cad, bars, product-1, 100

2, har, witte, product-2, 120

3, nes, bars, product-3, 119

Now i need to create files with the obtained resultset like

Column 'fname' is the folder name and 'typename' should be the file in the particular folder.

For example the first record should be inserted into file name 'bars.txt' in the folder 'cad' and third record should be created in file name 'bars.txt' in the folder 'nes'.

Package Changes Made And Saved Revert To Prior State When Package Closed And Re-opened

Jan 12, 2007

I copied and added an existing package as a new package to a project and have been having trouble with settings reverting to those for the original package after I modify and save the changes for the new package. Sometimes happens with the save itself, other times it happens when I close and re-open the package. Most cases are with connections that revert back to the original file reference, but there are also control flow and data flow elements that keep reverting back to either settings from the original package or defaults that result in the re-opened package being in error. Not sure how to get around this issue short of developing the new package from scratch which I'd rather not do since it is fairly complex. Any help anyone can provide is appreciated. Thanks.

Passing Execute DTS Package Result (success/failure) To Calling SSIS Package

Mar 6, 2008

I have a SSIS job, one of the last steps it performs is to execute a SQL 2000 DTS package. This has to be done as a SQL 2000 DTS package as it is performing rebuilds of SQL 2000 Analysis Services dimensions and cubes. We've found that when the DTS fails the SSIS job is happily completing showing as a success, we would prefer to know it went wrong.

As far as I'm aware SSIS merely starts the DTS off and doesn't care about it's result. I've taken a look in to turning on the logging for the execute DTS package and thought that the ExecuteDTS80PackageTaskTaskResult would give me the answer I need...but is merely written to the log not available as an event-handler. It also looks like it is not safe to put a SQL task in as the next item to go look at the SQL 2000 system tables to look at the log for the DTS package as the SSIS documentation warns that the DTS package can continue to run after the execute DTS package task has ended.

Ideally I want any error raised within the DTS package to cascade up to be an error in the SSIS job, I can then handle it appropriately. I cannot find a way to do this. Is there a way?

If not, can anyone suggest how in the remainder of the SSIS tasks I can be sure that the DTS has completed before I start any other tasks that will check for the SQL 2000 log of its execution?

Execution Of Child Package From Parent Package In Sql Server 2005 Integration Services

May 21, 2007

Hi,

I created a package which passes some infornmations( through parameters) to its child package.

I need to do some processing in parent package based on execution status of child package.i.e.

if child fails then some operation and if child succeeds then other operation.

To determine the status of execution of child package I am using two differnt constraint ..one constraint is having value "Success" and other having value "Failure".

My problem is that when child packge is executed successfully the constraint with value = "Success" works properly but when child fails the constraint with value "Failure" does not work.

Package Validation Error : The Package Designer Deletes The Code From Script Task.

Jun 14, 2006

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>

Several Different Errors When Creating And Running SSIS Package. Package Runs Successfuly Sometimes.

May 2, 2008

Hi All,



I am in the process of moving from a 32-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise (9.0.3054) to a 64-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise (9.0.3054 with 4 CPUs and 8GB of memory on Win 2003 SP2) and the process has been very frustrating to say the least. I am having a problem with packages that I created on my 64-bit SQL Server. I am importing a few tables from the 32-SQL Server into the 64-bit SQL Server using the Task --> Import to create the package.



Sometimes when I am creating a package I get the following error in a message box:



SQL Server Import and Export Wizard

The SSIS Runtime object could not be created. Verify that DTS.dll is available and registered. The wizard cannot continue and it will terminate.

Additional information: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. (System.Windows.Forms)





Other times when I run a package that has run successfully before I get the following error:



Faulting application dtexecui.exe, version 9.0.3042.0, stamp 45cd726d, faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, stamp 00000000, debug? 0, fault address 0x025d23f0.





Other times I get this error message:



.NET Runtime version 2.0.50727.1433 - Fatal Execution Engine Error (79FFEE24) (80131506)





And still other times



The package appears to hang when running. By this I mean that the Package Execution Progress shows progress up to a point then it just stops. (The package takes about 17 seconds to run normally) CPU usage is at 1% and the package cannot be stopped.





I have deleted and re-created the package several times and I have also re-installed the service pack on the SQL Server (9.0.3054) but that did not help.





Does anyone have any other suggestions to try?





Thanks.

Does Not Work --ETL Package Tutorial (Lesson 1: Creating The Project And Basic Package )

Nov 4, 2006

Hi,

I am new to SSIS. I followed the direction of the tutorial Creating Simple ETL Tutorial package in BooksOnline. I have tried more than five times and have done exactly as suggested in the tutorial but it does not work.

The URL is:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms169917.aspx

I get these warnings and finally fails:

1)[Lookup [30]] Error: Row yielded no match during lookup.

2) [Lookup [30]] Error: The "component "Lookup" (30)" failed because error code 0xC020901E occurred, and the error row disposition on "output "Lookup Output" (32)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.

3) [DTS.Pipeline] Error: The ProcessInput method on component "Lookup" (30) failed with error code 0xC0209029. The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput method. The error is specific to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data Flow task to stop running.

4) [DTS.Pipeline] Error: Thread "WorkThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0209029.

Can someone help me with this tutorial error? or Am I doing something wrong.

Thank you,
