Picking A Data Source File From Configuration
Mar 7, 2008
Hi there,
I believe this is simple requirement but to me it seems to be complicated. My data source is excel. I would like to configure the path of my data source in SSIS Package and file name is not a constant value. SSIS package should pick the file named as Today's (current) date from the configured path. As well, package should catch the exception for example file not found and log into custom log. It would be gr8 if some body helps me out.

My package is having .csv file as a source and I kept OLEDB destination to load it.
Stored the .csv file in a shared folder and the exact path is given in Enumerator configuration of the foreach loop container. When I execute my package, it is giving the warning as below:
It is saying that file is not there in the specified path and directory is empty. I am running the SSIS package from TFS. I am sure that I have read and write access for the shared folder for my userID. Is there any access there to pick up this file from path.

Hi,
I've created a solution with 5 packages in. I've scripted a config file for each package where I would be able to change the source file connection and the database servers (source and destination). On the first package, I am able to change the config attributes and the affects are picked up, but the rest of the packages do no pick up the changes.
For example, if the source file is "C:Filessource.txt" and this is changed to "C:Filessource123.txt" (Just to make sure it fails) it wont pick up the new changes and still uses "C:Filessource.txt".
Also, I tried changing the name of config file itself and the package still ran as if nothing had changed. It's as if it's not recognising the config file.
Any ideas ?
Thanks, Richie.

I have a got a package with source as sql table which has got 50 columns. We are using only 10 columns out of this. Recently one column name has changed and thus throws error invalid mapping. When I open the source to do the changes noticed that all the colums are prselected now and also the datatypes got changed to default ( I had changed the datatypes as per my requirement while i developed). So now I had to select required columns from source and redo the datatype changes in advanced editor.Is there any option which doesnt disturb this settings and we just need to correct the mapping alone.Â

hi all;
1. Excel file Source--> monthly Revenue details
2. Derived Colum Transoformations
3. Oledb Destination
its my flow in one of my packates (ETL job)
Excel file contains monthly revenue details, i wanna import the excel data to my database staging table, so i've created the package.
its working fine...
Problem
if we change the new data for the next month and running the package its not running;
the same file, same format, only we delete the contents, of the file except first row of the excel sheet,
and pasting the new data;
new data is coming from Oracle DataBase in the form of excel sheet ( manually they will copy the data and sending to us)
i open that package in design mode and while double clicking the excel file source it says <column name>'s Meta Data needs to be synchronized
Do you want to Fix this issue automatically with the available external column's meta data
Clearly noted that its a data type issue; i have changed the corresponding data types as it is in the previous Excel sheet which is equivalant to the Table its copying to.
now the package is running with validation warnings, External Column "Invoice Amount" needs to be updated...etc. some 2 or three warning messages i can able to see in the package Execution wizard,
ok, i'm ready to accept these warnings, and i want my package running from my server;( packages had been deployed in to the Centeralized server; every time if we want to run the package, we have the asp.net webpage, that is executing the package in an On_click event)
The package is not running from the server, its due to the meta data change in the Excel file( i guess)
please suggest me some guide lines to resolve this meta data issue, i want my excel sheet meta data should not change when we have new updates in it;
otherwise suggest me some solutions that i can validate the excel sheet before running the package and testing whether the data is in correct format or not? its a kind of Data Profiling activity;
i know its some what crazy, but i need to maintain the system with permanent solution, instead of facing this meta data mismatch issue!!!
some what lenthy explanation--> its needed for my dear powerful microsoft responders. i think i 've explained my problem clearly, if i don't let me know your queries, i'll try my level best.

Hi all,
my problem is that: I do read informations (e.g. connectionString) from configuration file by one custom assembly.
My environment is RS2005, VS.NET 2005 Prof.Edition, WIN2003 Server SP1, .NET Framework 2.0.50727
The scenario is that:
A text box into my report require a function contained into MyCustom.dll. This code do read information from MyCustom.dll.config.
This file contains:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<connectionStrings>
<add name="IS2009cfg" connectionString="data source=servernameinstancename;initial catalog=dbname;user id=xx;password=yy;" />
</connectionStrings>
<appSettings>
<add key="DefaultHeaderLogo" value="This is a test" />
</appSettings>
</configuration>
Using
ConnectionStringSettings conn = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["IS2009cfg"];
the result is null.
Also using
string defaultHeaderLogo = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["DefaultHeaderLogo"];
the result is null.
MyCustom.dll and MyCustom.dll.config are located into locations of Report Server and Report Designer, with this Build Events on succesfully build:
rem Copy custom assembly to ReportDesigner location...
copy "...mydeveloplocation...inDebugMyCustom.dll" "C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssembliesMyCustom.dll"
copy "...mydeveloplocation...inDebugMyCustom.dll.config" "C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssembliesMyCustom.dll.config"
rem Copy custom assembly to ReportServer location...
copy "...mydeveloplocation...inDebugMyCustom.dll" "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.4Reporting ServicesReportServerinMyCustom.dll"
copy "...mydeveloplocation...inDebugMyCustom.dll.config" "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.4Reporting ServicesReportServerinMyCustom.dll.config"
The question is simple: where I do locate configuration file for obtain value during report execution?
Many thank's in advance

Hi, all,
I have this SSIS data flow ( Flat file to sql server) that I want to add a step to redirect any "bad" data instead of fail out.
I had the red arrow hocked up to a sql new table to dump the bad data, but the flow still failed.
Here is the first error, and I knew what was wrong. A description field in that line has pipe(|) character in it, which also happen to be the column delimiter in this case.
[Flat File Source [1]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "Column 22" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".
I knew if I fixed the data, every thing will be fine, but I just want to use this redirect feature of SSIS. Is there a place where I can turn off validation, or do something to make it work?
Thanks!

I am attempting to pull in data from a flat file data source that contains dates in the following format "01012007 10:22" which translates to Month Day Year and Military Time. I want to turn this into a DateTime format so that I can insert it into the proper column. I have a SQL statement which will do this (see bellow), but I can't figgure out how to run the statement on the data before it reaches its destination.
Can anyone help?
The code is:
Code Block
cast(convert(varchar(16),(substring( REPORT_RUN_DATE,1,2 ) + '/' + substring( REPORT_RUN_DATE,3,2 ) + '/' + substring( REPORT_RUN_DATE,5,10 )),1) as datetime) AS REPORT_RUN_DATE

I am trying to create sql code that restores a backup of a master database to a new database on the same server. It “seems” to run correctly as no errors are produced. However, the most recent updates to the master database are not present in the new databases. All databases are using the Full recovery model. What is really strange is that if I do (what I think is) the same function in Enterprise Administrator, the restore works fine! For both methods I used the same backup file!
Any and all help is sincerely appreciated.
The master databases from which the backups are made start with “MODTRNMaster”
The databases which are created from the restores start with “M1_” and “M2_”. (We call them training room databases.)
My script for backing up the master databases:
-- Backup the master training database
backup database MODTRNMaster
to disk = 'f:kupMODTRNMaster.bak'
backup database MODTRNMaster_IMG
to disk = 'f:kupMODTRNMaster_IMG.bak'
backup database MODTRNMaster_MNC
to disk = 'f:kupMODTRNMaster_MNC.bak'
backup database MODTRNMaster_VM
to disk = 'f:kupMODTRNMaster_VM.bak'
go
This is the restore script for restoring the first training room databases. I’m hoping that there is just something simple that I’m overlooking in these restore statements! J
-- Restore the backup of the master training database into the
-- training room #1 database.
use master
go
drop database M1_MSLH
go
restore database M1_MSLH
from disk = 'f:kupMODTRNMaster.bak'
with move 'DEV5_Data' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH.mdf',
move 'MM' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH_1.mdf',
move 'AMB' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH_2.mdf',
move 'DM' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH_3.mdf',
move 'IMM' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH_4.mdf',
move 'ED' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH_5.mdf',
move 'DEV5_Log' to 'f:mssqllogM1_MLSH_log.ldf',
recovery
go
Thanks in advance

I'm getting a bit lost in SSIS. I've got an Excel source file that I'm trying to load into a table. I keep getting validation errors that warn about not being able to convert between unicode and non-unicode string data types.
I'm trying figure out where I have to change this and am frankly confused. It seems SSIS is selecting various columns as unicode/WSTR data types, but I want them to import as regular string types.
On the Data Flow tab in SSIS, I right-click on the source Data Flow component (the Excel file) and select Show Advanced Editor. Then on the last tab, Input and Output Properties, there's a tree view for the Excel output. There are "External Columns" and "Output Columns" containers in the tree view.
I tried setting some of these but they don't seem to "take". Do I need to change the data type for each column under both the External and Output columns?
That seems like a lot of work! And, as I say, I tried setting some, but I still got the same validation errors. So, then I go back to this spot (Advanced Editor -> Input and Output Properties tab) and my changes seem to have been lost.
Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,
I am trying to impliment a SSIS package where data source is a Flat file(.csv) file and destination is a sql server database.
The problem is my data source a flat file which consists of thousands of rows which are manually entered, so there is always a chance that in some rows they may miss a column value while entering data which results in an error.
Example: My flat file has headers like Sln, Name, Age, Designation. While entering data they may miss age and type it as 1,aaa,Consultant,,
Using SSIS package i want to track all row number in the flat file where data is entered wrongly so that i can correct only that row instead of checking all rows each time when my SSIS package throughs an error. I want to get all the row numbers in a sql server database which are wrongly entered.
Any suggestions are sincerly apriciated.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
gcs.

In DTS 2000 I had a situation where I had a text file as input source and text file as output source. On migrating the package to 2005 it puts a wrapper around it which executes it as a 2000 package, the rest of the tasks are neatly converted to 2005 style tasks. I presume this to mean that this will not be supported through to the next version, and there is no direct equivalent in 2005.
My question is how do I import a non-flat file source which has different numbers of columns per line. I did ,somehow, manage to do this with 2000 but cannot seem to get anywhere with 2005.
The flat file source seems to be expecting a common number of columns and just can't seem to cope with no column delimiters on some lines. If anybody knows different I would be glad to hear about it.
Raw data is not helpful to me as only works with a specific raw type (apparently)
Went onto Bulk Insert Task but got this message
[Bulk Insert Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.Bulk load: An unexpected end of file was encountered in the data file.".
Have already browsed with this on web but only find comments about changing timeout setting.
Can find timeout settings in DataFlow source and DataFlow destinations but not in Bulk Insert Task.
As you can see this is a long and protracted question.
If the answer is simple I apologise if not blame Microsoft. Other than that have found SSIS has some nice improvements, apart from the odd vague error message I keep coming across.

Hi All,
In one of my SSIS Interface I have to Merge data from a Oledb source and a Flat file source.But after I read from the flat file I have do a basic validation of the file for the length of header,detail and trailer records and then process further.The above Validation I am doing within Script Component.If the validation fails the flow should pass out of the DataFlowTask without Initailsing the Oledb source.
But the problem is i am not able to connect anything to the Oledb source,i.e Oledb source is not taking any incoming Pointers.
Earlier I had done the same Validation in Control Flow Task,but then the interface was reading the same file twice,once in the Control Flow Task and then again in the DataFlowTask.Which i should avoid now.
I hope many of you could have come across such a problem.
Any help on this will be appreciated.
cheers

I'm getting a very strange potential loss of data error on my flat file source in the data flow. The flat file is fixed width and the column in question is defined as numeric [DT_NUMERIC]. The transform runs great if this column IS NOT A ZERO. As soon as a zero value is found, I get the error. It errors on the flat file source, so I haven't been able to use a data viewer to see what's going on.
Please Help!?
Thanks,

Is it possible to import data from an Excel spreadsheet using OPENROWSET or OPENDATASOURCE without having to explicitly define the filepath of the source file? Currently, I have this piece of code within a sproc:
INSERT INTO [dbo].[ProductionRequirementDetail]
([ProductionRequirementHeaderID], [SKU], [Quantity])
SELECT @ProductionRequirementHeaderID,
[SKU],
[LAMPS]
FROM OPENROWSET ('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0; Database=C:WeeklySchedule.xls', 'SELECT * FROM [Master$C5:Q65536]') AS XL
LEFT JOIN [dbo].[PartMaster] ON (RIGHT([XL].[CODE], 7) = [PartMaster].[SKU])
WHERE [SKU] IS NOT NULL
AND [CODE] IS NOT NULL
AND [LAMPS] IS NOT NULL
AND [LAMPS] > 0
AND [LampTypeID] = @LampTypeID
I would like to remove the hardcoded reference 'Database=C:WeeklySchedule.xls' and replace it with a parameter for the filepath. Is this possible? This is in SQL Server 2000. Also, if there is a way to do this with DTS I'd be open to doing it that way too.

Hi All,
I have this very big text file (2.5 GB - which of course I am not able to open). This resides on a server which has SQL 2005.
I have created a linked server for this text file on my SQL database, and when I try to query the table, I get an error:
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "txtsrv".
Why am I getting this error? When I make a dummy linked server on my local machine and test the steps it all works OK. but when I go to this server where the file and it's SQL instance is lying, I get this error. Please can someone provide me with some help on this?
Many thanks,
~S
P.S. Here is how I created the linked server (I also have the Schema.ini lying under the same folder):
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver txtsrv, 'Jet 4.0',
'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'C:SSAnalysis',
NULL,
'Text'
