Passing Variables As Arguments To Execute Process Task?

Nov 9, 2007

I am running my "execute process task" in a foreach loop that uses two variables (file paths) from the recordset that feeds into it.

My executable line looks like this: C:Program FilesWinZipWZZIP.EXE ,
which runs the command line Winzip executable and my argument line looks like this: -rp @ZipArch @ZipTxt.

When I replace the variables with literal strings, the process works (only once, of course).

My Argument won't parse in the expression editor, nor does the process run when embedded in the foreach loop. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help.

Integration Services :: Execute Process Task / Passing In Variables From SSIS To Powershell Script

May 15, 2015

I am using SSIS 2012 to dynamically backup stored procedures on a list of Servers and Databases.Here are the steps in my package,

1. Execute SQL Task: Captures a result set (configured to save the data set in an Object variable) with all the Servers and Databases on which stored procedures exist.

2. For each loop that is configured to get each each row(server name @[User::Server_Name] and databases name @[User::DataBase_Name]) from the object variable (@[User::Connection_Strings])and pass it to a connection manager that has an expression for servername
and database name.

2a)  Within the for each loop, i have an execute process task that is configured as

 i) Executable:  C:WindowsSystem32WindowsPowerShellv1.0powershell.exe
 ii) Arguments:  Configured this to fetch value from an expression. The expression i am using is,'C:batch - CopyPowerShell Scripts to Backup Stored ProceduresScriptOutSPs.ps1' -$Server_Name "+ @[User::Server_Name]+ " -$Database_Name "+ @[User::DataBase_Name]
             
Note:  @[User::Server_Name] is the Servername from object variable and so is @[User::DataBase_Name] for database name . The execute task is to run a command line that triggers a powershell script with parameters. Here is the powershell script that i am using,

param([String]$Server_Name,[String]$Database_Name)
$Server = $Server_Name
$Database = $Database_Name
$savePath = "SalesDepartmentsData ScienceUsersSANDEEP PStoredProcedures_Backup"

[code]...

When i execute the script, by passing parameters from arguments, it executes successfully but nothing happens. Passing wrong arguments in the expression?

Execute Process Task Arguments

Apr 22, 2006

We are attempting to use SSIS execute process task.

In a cmd.exe session the executable runs with normal arguments:

mycmd < myscript.txt > foo.txt 2>error.txt

We have attempted to several permutations of this without success. We declared variables and assigned them to stdin, stdout, stderr. However, mycmd opens in the SSIS session as if no arguments have been supplied.

Is there some expression that is required to connect the stdin/out/err variables in the Arguments within Execute Process Task. The help/examples are terse.

SQL 2012 :: Passing Record Counts From Execute Task In SSIS To Package Variables

Mar 4, 2014

I've got a package in SSIS 2012 that has an Execute SQL task in the control flow level.

The SQL in question does an Upsert via the SQL merge statement. What I want to do, is return the count of records inserted and records updated (No deletes going on here to worry about). I'm using the output option to output the changed recs to a table variable.

I've tried returning the values as:

Select Count(*) as UpdateCount from @mergeOutput where Action = 'Update'
and
Select Count(*) as InsertCount from @mergeOutput where Action = 'Insert'

I've tried setting the resultset to both Single rowset and Full rowset, but i'm not seeing anything returned to the package variables I've set for them (intInsertcount and intUpdatecount).

D:SSIS ProcessPrepweblogProcessLoad>preplog ex.log > out.log
the above dos cmd works 100%



However when I use the Execute Process Task I get this error

Execute Process Task Error - The Process Exit Code Was 1 While The Expected Was 0.

Jan 30, 2007

How do I use the execute process task? I am trying to unzip the file using the freeware PZUnzip.exe and I tried to place the entire command in a batch file and specified the working directory as the location of the batch file, but the task fails with the error:

SSIS package "IngramWeeklyPOS.dtsx" starting.

Error: 0xC0029151 at Unzip download file, Execute Process Task: In Executing "C:ETLPOSDataIngramWeeklyUnzip.bat" "" at "C:ETLPOSDataIngramWeekly", The process exit code was "1" while the expected was "0".

Task failed: Unzip download file

SSIS package "IngramWeeklyPOS.dtsx" finished: Success.

Then I tried to specify the exe directly in the Executable property and the agruments as the location of the zip file and the directory to unzip the files in, but this time it fails with the following message:

SSIS package "IngramWeeklyPOS.dtsx" starting.

Error: 0xC002F304 at Unzip download file, Execute Process Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "%1 is not a valid Win32 application".

Task failed: Unzip download file

SSIS package "IngramWeeklyPOS.dtsx" finished: Success.

The command in the batch file when run from the command line works perfectly and unzips the file, so there is absolutely no problem with the command, I believe it is just the set up of the variables on the execute process task editor under Process. Any input on resolving this will be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Monisha

Execute Process Task - Error :The Process Exit Code Was 2 While The Expected Was 0.

Mar 20, 2008



I am designing a utility which will keep two similar databases in sync. In other words, copying the new data from db1 to db2 and updating the old data from db1 to db2.

For this I am making use of the 'Tablediff' utility which when provided with server name, database, table info will generate .sql file which can be used to keep the target table in sync with the source table.

I am using the Execute Process Task and the process parameters I am providing are:



WorkingDirectory : C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server90COM
Executable : C:SQL_bat_FilesSQL5TC_CTIcustomer.bat

The customer.bat file will have the following code:
tablediff -sourceserver "LV-SQL5" -sourcedatabase "TC_CTI" -sourcetable "CUSTOMER_1" -destinationserver "LV-SQL2" -destinationdatabase "TC_CTI" -destinationtable "CUSTOMER" -f "c:SQL_bat_Filessql5TC_CTIsql_filescustomer1"

the .sql file will be generated at: C:SQL_bat_Filessql5TC_CTIsql_filescustomer1.

The Problem:
The Execute Process Task is working fine, ie., the tables are being compared correctly and the .SQL file is being generated as desired. But the task as such is reporting faliure with the following error :

[Execute Process Task] Error: In Executing "C:SQL_bat_FilesSQL5TC_CTIpackage_occurrence.bat" "" at "C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server90COM", The process exit code was "2" while the expected was "0". ]

Some of you may suggest to just set the ForceExecutionResult = Success (infact this is what I am doing now just to get the program working), but, this is not what I desire.

Can anyone help ?

Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor (Inner Variables Vs Outer Variables)

Sep 4, 2006

Hi,

I am not comfortable with DTS 2000 but I need to execute a encapsulated DTS 2000 package from a SSIS package. The real problem is when I need to pass SSIS variables to DTS 2000 package. The DTS 2000 package have 3 global variables that I can identify on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - Inner Variables ". I believe the SSIS variables must be mapped on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - OuterVariables ". How can I associate the SSIS variables(OuterVariables ) to "Inner Variables"? How can I do it? Much Thanks.

Problem With Package.Execute Passing Variables

Dec 20, 2006

I am having a problem with passing variables into my SSIS package from C#. The variable names match ("Variable1, ...), however they do not seem to be assigned the proper values once the package is executed. The package does run and returns a FALURE notice saying there is a problem with my expressions.

When I added a new data flow, derived all the variables into columns and wrote their values to a flat file I noticed that the values still contain my default values from the SSIS package itself as though nothing was passed in from C#. I am hoping that it is a simple configuration/user error.

Any ideas?



---- C# ----

Reference to Microsoft.SQLServer.ManagedDTS

using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime;

Application DTSApp = new Application();
Package DTSPack = DTSApp.LoadPackage("d:\SSISPackages\Package.dtsx", null);
DTSPack.Variables.Add("Variable1", true, "", var1.ToString());
DTSPack.Variables.Add("Variable2", true, "", var2);
DTSPack.Variables.Add("Variable3", true, "", 100);
DTSPack.Variables.Add("Variable4", true, "", var4.ToString());
DTSExecResult pkgResult = DTSPack.Execute(null, DTSPack.Variables, null, null, null);

Execute Process Task Cmd And Net Use

Mar 20, 2008

Hello all,
I have the need to connect to a network drive as a different user id when my SSIS package runs. If I stick the command into a batch script (forums don't play well with Opera, so sorry for code block not working)

@echo off
C:windowssystem32cmd /c net use \ServereeShare SecretPassword /usererverSecretUser

If I call that batch script from SSIS, at the conclusion of execution I'll have a share mapped. To ease deployment and maintenance, I want to refrain from using the batch script. So, I set my task as so
Executable: cmd.exe
Arguments: /C
WorkingDirectory: C:windowssystem32
StandardInputVariable: User::FileShareMappingParameters
StandardOutputVariable: User::FileShareMappingOutput
StandardErrorVariable: User::FileShareMappingError

and the rest are the default values. The value of User::FileShareMappingParameters is "net use \ServereeShare SecretPassword /usererverSecretUser"

My task does not fail nor do the output or errors variables get populated but I do not get my share. Anyone out there run into a similar situation or have a pointer on this one?

Hi,

We have an SSIS Execute Process Task which calls an executable along with the required parameters.
When we run this package, it intermittently gives the error as shown below in red

Executing "ppscmd.exe" "StagingDB /Server http://SERVERNAME:46787 /path OSB_FY08.Planning.dimensionECFuncArea /Operation LoadDataFromStaging" at "", The process exit code was "1" while the expected was "0". End Error DTExec: The package execution returned DTSER_FAILURE (1). Started: 5:05:08 PM Finished: 5:08:40 PM Elapsed: 212.203 seconds. The package execution failed. The step failed.

We are not able to debug this issue. We had a look at the logging information as well but we are not getting any information on this issue.

How can we resolve this issue ?

Any help on this would be highly appreciated.

Thanks & Regards

Problem In Execute Process Task

A batch file when being executed using the "execute process task"(DTS package) gives problems whereas the same batch file without any change when executed manually from the explorer runs fine.

The problem in debugging is that sometimes the same task runs fine and sometimes not....

The batch file contains code to extract a zip file(zipped using arj) to a paricular directory.

DTS Execute Process Task Question

In the properties sheet for a DTS Execute Process Task, there is a input box for 'Parameters' which allow you to add command-line options to the task exe specified. How can you use the DTS Global variables to be passed in this parameter field? Is there a special format to indicate that the parameters are in fact global variable tokens?

Problem With Execute Process Task

Mar 26, 2007

Hi,

I have what should be a very simple process.

I have a FOREACHLOOP container, that is set up to loop through files in a directory:

Enumerator: Foreach File Enumerator

Folder: c:myfolder

Files: *.txt

Retrieve: Name and extension

Variable mappings: User::file_name, Index 0

So far, so good...

Then, inside the FOREACHLOOP, I have an Execute Process Task, which is simply a .bat file that I am running, and passing the name of the file to:

For example: myBat.bat file_name

In the Execute Process Task, I have:

RequireFullFileName: false

Executable: c:myFilemyBat.bat

WorkingDirectory: c:myFile

StandardInputVariable: User::file_name

Everything else is set to the defaults.

However, when I execute my container, I get the following error:

Error: 0xC0029151 at Execute Process Task, Execute Process Task: In Executing "c:myFilemyBat.bat" " " at "c:myFile", The process exit code was "1", while the the expected was "0".

Is there anything I am obviously doing wrong here at the package level? When I run the .bat file from the command line, it works fine.

Thanks

Running C#.exe From Execute Process Task

Mar 13, 2008

My problem is that I am trying to set up an Execute Process Task to run a C# executable. The .exe captures information from an ftp site and downloads it into a directory on our server. Here is the command line run:

C:SAXOEodinReleaseSaxoEod

I have set the Execute Process Task up as follows:

Require Full name: True
Executable: C:SaxoEODobjReleaseSaxoEod.exe
FailTaskIfReturnCodeIsNotSuccessValue: False
SuccessValue:0
TimeOut:0
WindowStyle:Normal

I have the FailTaskIfReturnCodeIsNotSuccessValue set to False because when it is set to true I get the following error:


Error: 0xC0029151 at Execute Process Task, Execute Process Task: In Executing "C:SaxoEODobjReleaseSaxoEod.exe" "" at "", The process exit code was "-532459699" while the expected was "0".



Setting FailTaskIfReturnCodeIsNotSuccessValue to False does not work either because the files are not downloaded from the FTP site.

I am relatively new to the SSIS arena. I have googled this thing to death and have not found an answer. Any help in the right direction is appreciated. Thanks.

Execute Process Task Error

Mar 10, 2008

Hi

I am having trouble running a package in SQL Agent. The step involves zipping up a number of files using SQL Agent. I know in the error message it states "Access is denied" but I can run the package manually in BIS. Also I have applied a SQL proxy to the step using my own credentials which have rights to the file location, but still no luck.

I get the following error:

Error: 2008-03-10 09:04:02.04 Code: 0xC002F304 Source: Call ZipFiles Batch Execute Process Task Description: An error occurred with the following error message: "Access is denied".

Does anyone know what the problem could be?

Result From Execute Process Task

Mar 5, 2008

On an Execute Process Task, are there properties I can examine to determine the outcome of a process? I know that I can use a Success/Failure constraint to direct my workflow appropriately, depending on the outcome, but I would prefer the workflow continue on to the same task regardless, and then be able to change the flow later on based on the outcome of the process.

I see there is an ExecValueVariable property, and this may be what I'm looking for, but I have no idea what this is and can not find any documentation on it. I tried using it, but kept getting a runtime error trying to set it to a variable.

I know that a process returns a numeric value, and it would be nice if I could store this somewhere.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Execute Process Task Using StandardInputVariable

Feb 15, 2007

Greetings!

I am using a Excute Process Task calling a selfwritten EXE and I'm trying to pass a command line argument to it. The code for the EXE is quit simple:

Public Sub Main()
Try
Dim info As String = My.Application.CommandLineArgs.Item(0)
MessageBox.Show("Info:" & info)
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString)
End Try
End Sub

According to the help files there are two ways to pass an argument, using the property Arguments, which I guess is for hard-coded stuff, and the StandardInputVariable for passing dynamic info.

When I use the Arguments property everything works fine. I get the info messagebox with correct data. But when I leave that blank and instead use the StandardInputVariable property setting it to my package variable User::Info then I crash into an exception meaning that no arguments existed (array is out of bonds).

The variable User::Info was at first filled from a previous SSIS task and using the OnPreExecute breakpoint I verified that it contained a stringvalue. I then hardcoded a string value into the variable, but nothing helps. The task refuses to start my EXE with the data in the StandardInputVariable as an argument.

Why is this not working???

Execute SQL Task To Update Variables

Jun 30, 2006

Hi there

I'm attempting to update a variable using the Execute SQL task, I've read a lot of posts on this and seems reasonably simple but obviously not. The first time I ran it the variable was updated correctly, I then manually changed the variable value and since then it doesn't work.

I have a task with the following properties;

Resultset: SingleRow

SQLStatement: SELECT MAX(Player_Daily_Data_Pull_Date) as 'PlayerDaily' From Job_Control

On the resultset tab I have the resultsetname = PlayerDailyand the variable I want to update.

The variable has a type of datatime and it's scope is the container that I'm running the sql task within.

Any help would be appreciated.

Problem With Variables In Execute SQL Task

May 2, 2007



I am trying to run a simple update (just to establish it works) passing in a variable in the execute SQL task. It is within a Foreach loop and the incoming data is from a RecordSet destination. One of the fields in the recordset is UniqueID. I have a variable called User::UniqueID which holds the uniqueID value. I then have a second variable which is the insert statement of

"INSERT rptlifespan_transactionimagecopy SELECT " + (DT_WSTR, 20)@[User::UniqueID] + ", null, null,null,null,null,null,null"

with delayvalidation set to True.



when I run the package i get the following error:



Error: 0xC0014054 at Execute SQL Task: Failed to lock variable "INSERT rptlifespan_transactionimagecopy SELECT 543, null, null,null,null,null,null,null" for read access with error 0xC0010001 "The variable cannot be found. This occurs when an attempt is made to retrieve a variable from the Variables collection on a container during execution of the package, and the variable is not there. The variable name may have changed or the variable is not being created.".



543 is the value of my first UniqueID so that bit is working ok. What I do not know is why the insert statement is failing.



Please help i have very little hair left!!
