I'm trying use the SSIS XML Task to process some XML files that have namespaces and schemas defined . One of the things I am doing is trying to perform an XPATH query on the files. However, I'm unable to provide either a namespace manager or XsltContext to the XML Task and that causes the XML Task to not understand my XPATH queries.
For example, if my XML is:
<o:object id="12345" xmlns:o="urn:some-urn"/>
and my desired XPATH is "/o:object/@id", I get the following error:
Error: 0xC002F304 at Query, XML Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "Namespace Manager or XsltContext needed. This query has a prefix, variable, or user-defined function.".
Of course, the XPATH "/object/@id" returns nothing as expected.
I've been banging my head against this one for a while. There are examples around but I can't seem to find anything that works (or find an explanation).
The problem: The xml document uses an imported common schema to reference common tags/objects (xmlns:cmn) but I can't seem to get openXML working with multiple namespaces. If I remove the primary namespace (emboldened in red) the SELECT returns as expected. Editing the xml document is not an option.
I'm having trouble getting the namespaces correct in the XML that is generated by SQL. The XML consists of two parts: a header part with some context information and the payload part with the actual data. With my current SQL script, the namespace is also copied to the payload part.
Here are some DDL and DML scripts to generate two test tables and some test data:
Code: CREATE TABLE dbo.context( idintNOT NULLconstraint pk_dbo_context primary key, namenvarchar(100)NOT NULL ) INSERT INTO dbo.context(id, name) VALUES (1, 'Here comes some great context information.')
[Code] ....
This is my current FOR XML script that generates the XML:
Code: ;WITH XMLNAMESPACES (DEFAULT 'http://services.registersubscription-02_00.a.cool.url.com') SELECT CEXT.name AS [Context/Name], (SELECT CONT.id AS [Content/Reference],
[Code] ....
This generates this XML (notice that the namespace is repetated in the <Questions> element):
Code: <RegisterSubscription xmlns="http://services.registersubscription-02_00.a.cool.url.com"> <Request> <Context> <Name>Here comes some great context information.</Name>
[Code] ....
The XML should be like this:
Code: <RegisterSubscription xmlns="http://services.registersubscription-02_00.a.cool.url.com"> <Request xmlns=""> <Context> <Name>Here comes some great context information.</Name>
[Code] ....
The generated XML does not pass the XSD validation.
Hi eveyone, I'm reading about namespaces and schemas in MS SQL 2005, and that's exactly what I was looking for for the structure of my database.
I've a database and 4 different applications that will use it, and every application will create a new database every year, for example, i'd like to use the following schema:
MainDatabase.MyApplication.MyYear.MyTable
In MS SQL i've created my main schema using:
USE Mydatabase; CREATE SCHEMA MyApplication GO
Now I want to add sub-groups (in this example, I need to create Year2006, Year2007, and so on).
Even If i create those schemas, how can I "add" them inside the Salary main schema? I've tryed with ALTER SCHEMA MyApplication TRANSFER Year2006
but it doesn't work since Year2006 is not an object.
I am trying to select data from a column that has xml data in it. I have tried all I can think of, but the results keep coming back as NULL. Not sure why but I pasted the top of the xml document so show what I am trying to do.
WITH XMLNAMESPACES('[ns0]' AS ns) SELECT sourceclaimxml.value('(/ST01_TransactionSetIdentifierCode)[2]', 'varchar(300)') XMLValue FROM xclaim_audit_xml CROSS APPLY sourceclaimxml.nodes('//ST') as P(nref) WHERE edixid='2323111'
I have an XML document that I am trying to use within a data flow (XML Source)--the problem is that I keep getting an error message stating that the XML document has multiple namespaces and therefore, SSIS will not create the XSD for me. If I take out the second namespace, I am able to successfully get the task to execute, but this XML is created with 2 namespaces and there is no way to get around this (I cannot get the report server to change these parameters)--my question is: know a way to get SSIS to handle multiple namespaces so that I can process this XML document and extract the necessary data elements from it.
1) Rows ordered using textual id rather than numeric id
Code Snippet select cast(v.id as nvarchar(2)) id from ( select 1 id union select 2 id union select 11 id ) v order by v.id
Result set is ordered as: 1, 11, 2 I expect: 1,2,11
if renamed or removed alias for "cast(v.id as nvarchar(2))" expression then all works fine.
2) SQL server reject query below with next message
Server: Msg 169, Level 15, State 3, Line 16 A column has been specified more than once in the order by list. Columns in the order by list must be unique.
Code Snippet select cast(v.id as nvarchar(2)) id from ( select 1 id union select 2 id union select 11 id ) v cross join ( select 1 id union select 2 id union select 11 id ) u order by v.id ,u.id
Again, if renamed or removed alias for "cast(v.id as nvarchar(2))" expression then all works fine.
It reproducible on

In both cases database collation is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1251_CS_AS
If I check quieries above on database with SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS collation then it works fine again.
Could someone clarify - is it bug or expected behaviour?
I have a DTS that imports data from an orcle database into SQL Server. Doesn't the processing mostly occur on the SQL Server, not on the oracle database from which the data is being imported? The oracle database is vendor provieded and they are saying our SQL Server DTS package is killing their server. Any insight is appreciated. Thanks
I've got a process that creates records in my database based on XML input that I've gotten. What I am doing it giving this XML to a stored procedure to handle a specific task, then modify the XML and send it to the next stored procedure.
For instance, the XML could hold header records with detail records, I would first send the XML to a stored procedure that creates the header records, then updates the XML so the XML now knows the identity values of the header records I have just created, and then send the XML to the next stored procedure to create the details for those headers.
All works great and fine, but I have a problem with writing the identity values back to the XML. It seems I can only change one item in the XML at a time and thus need to loop this. For many records this really takes a long time.
Here is some sample code of what I'm doing (please excuse any typos, this is a simplified version of the code) :
declare @lvSeq numeric(15) declare @lvRowNo int declare @lvNumRows int
insert into myHeaderTable ( recid, recdesc ) select ref.value('@recid', 'nvarchar(25)') recid, ref.value('@recdesc', 'nvarchar(250)') recdesc from @pXML.nodes('//headers/header') R(ref)
select @lvRowNo=1, @lvNumRows = @pXML.value('count(//headers/header)', 'int') while (@lvRowNo<=@lvNnumRows) begin select @lvSeq = recseq from myHeaderTable where recid = @pXML.value('//headers/header[position()=sql:variable("@lvRowNo")]/@recid)
set @pXML.modify('replace value of (//headers/header[position()=sql:variable("@lvRowNo")]/@recseq with sql:variable("@lvSeq")')
select @lvRowNo=@lvRowNo+1 end
Obviously I am looking for a better way to update the XML with the sequences. The insert takes a second, the loop takes minutes with large XML sets. I guess MSSQL is searching the whole XML to find the item to update.
It would be nice if I didn't have to loop through the XML. One solution I was thinking off is to store the XML in a temporary table with a single record per header item. Then I could do the modify in one go and recreate the XML by simply selecting the contents of the temporary tabel. I have no idea if this is possible.
So something like this:
select ref.value('@recid','nvarchar(25)') recid, ref.value('.','XML') XMLData -- this gives an error into #TMP_XML from @pXML.nodes('//headers/header') R(ref)
insert into myHeaderTable ( recid, recdesc ) select recid, ref.value('@recdesc', 'nvarchar(250)') recdesc from #TMP_XML CROSS APPLY XMLData.nodes('/header') R(ref)
update #TMP_XML set XMLData.modify('replace ....') from myheadertable where #TMP_XML.recid = myheadertable.recid
Hello friends, I needed a suggestion, I am currently working on a reporting website that generates reports and i need to store all the reports in the database.
I usually go by row wise processing as it can be easily controlled but the problem is there will be a lot of reports, that is an estimation of 30,000 rows in a month and i m not sure if sql server can hold more than 2 billion rows per table.
I will just explain whole scenario what I m facing in tricky problem..
We have xml files coming at regular interval by some other source into sql server 2000…daily having records near @10000 to 70000…we have job scheduled to run it regular interval…we doing this by some filter criteria… suppose the flow is like staging table into secondary table and then final into primary table…. We design DTS package accordingly means take the records from staging table put into secondary table and then into primary table…(near @ 8 task involved in it…) Suppose xml file came at 8:30 am and our DTS package will run at 9:00 am…and then 11:00 am and the 1:00 pm like that….what I observing from many days is that after running job at 9:00 am successfully some good data still pending in secondary table not processed into primary table. But when again job ran at 11:00 am it processed that pending good records into primary table…some times when I ran this job manually through DTS design level the good data that pending in secondary table processed!!!
My question is that why this job not processed all the good records in single shot????
Hello everyone.

Which component should be used to process dataset as a whole, and not on per row basis? I have need to process dataset conditionally (condition based on dataset), e.g. if a special row is present in dataset than dataset should be processed in a special way. Should I maybe use one Script Transformation to determine if dataset satisfies condition (and store that result into a variable), and then based on that condition (variable value) perform or not processing (using Conditional Split and Script Transformation)?
I am having trouble trying to construct the following process in SSIS/SQL 2005:
1. Grab a set of unprocessed rows (ProcessDT = null) in an 'Action' table 2. For each of these rows, execute multiple stored procedures base on the action type If actiontype = 1, exec spAct1a @param1, @parm2 exec spAct1b @param1, @parm2, @param3, @param4 If actiontype = 2, exec spAct2a @param1, @parm2, @param3 exec spAct2b @param1, @parm2, @param3 etc.... 3. Update ProcessDT so it's not processed again 4. Repeat until all rows are processed
Note - all sp params are contained in additional columns in the Action table. Basically the Action table is a store for post-event processing of sorts but is order dependent, hence the row by row processing. And some of my servers are 2000 so Service Broker is not an option (yet).
I first attempted to do this totally within the control flow - using an ado recordset/foreach loop control, but I could not figure out how to run conditional process paths based on the ActionTypeID. I then tried to do this within the dataflow using on OLEDB data source, a conditional split, and an oledb command control which almost got me there - the problem being for each row I need to execute multiple sp's and it appears as if the oledb command only gives me one sp.
I'm populating a new table based on information in an existing table. The new table is a list of all "items" and contains a primary key. The old table is a database of receipts where items can appear many times in any order.
I have put together the off-the-shelf components to do this, using a lookup transformation to see if the item is already in the new table. Problem is, because there's so much repetition in the old table I need to process the old table one row at a time. Batch processing is generating errors because the lookup doesn't detect duplicates within the buffer.
I tried setting the "DefaultBufferMaxRows" property of the task to 1, but that doesn't seem to have any effect.
To get the data from the old table, I'm using an OLE DB source. To get the data into the new table, I'm using the OLE DB Command transformation with parameters to execute an INSERT statement.
This is a job I have to do exactly once, so I don't care if I have to run it overnight. I'd rather have a simple, easy to understand but inefficient script so I understand what it's doing completely.
Any help on forcing SSIS to process one row at a time?
I am verifying my reports processing time. I get the information from the Reporting Service DB - [ExecutionLogs] table. I have the following information:
[TimeEnd] €“ time that reports generation ends.
[TimeStart] - time that reports generation starts.
[TimeDataRetrieval] - amount of time spent running the data sources.
[TimeProcessing] - time spent processing the report.
[TimeRendering] - time spent generating the output format.
If this information is correct the following statement should be true:
When using the AS processing task with a connection to "an Analysis Services project in this solution", only some processing options are available for processing dimensions. For instance, it is not possible to select "Process Update". Once I change the connection manager to point to the deployed cube database, I can choose from all the options. Is this by design?
I need help from sql experts for the following problem
DOCTYPE DATE QTY PRD LOT Purchase 1 jan 20+ AA 2007FW Purchase 4 jan 50+ AA 2007SS Purchase 9 jan 10+ AA 2007FW Sale 3 jan 10- AA Sale 4 jan 20- AA Returned Good 4 feb 10 AA
As you can see I don't have the LOT code in sales records, so I must update these records with the following logic:
I have to assign LOT code to sales in FIFO order: from the table above the 3rd of January I find the first sale of 10, take the first LOT (ascending date order), check for qty on hand (20+), consume 10 from LOT (10 remaining), update sale record with 2007FW LOT code.
Then I find next sale of 20, as before I take the first LOT with qty on hand to consume, again it's the first record with only 10 remaining so I set LOT qty on hand to zero but I have 10 more to allocate to a LOT code. So I find next available LOT of 50 and consume 10, with 40 remaining.
It's important to remember that I can sell part of a "lot", have to track the remaining goods per LOT
Is it possible in SQL to do that in batch mode? How? If I have to split sale record consuming 2 or more LOTS, how can I do? Can you show me SQL or good hints?
I have 3 cubes in a single SSAS database and these cubes should be processed using the following schedule
Cube 1 - Every Day Cube 2 - Every Week Cube 3 - Every Month Cube 4 - Every Day
The issue that I face is that these cubes share the dimensions and so I cant do a FULL process of these SHARED Dimensions as it will affec other cubes.
I can expect additions and deletions to my dimension data , but the structure remains the same. It would be great if someone can suggest how to go about processing the dimensions. I am confused with the number of options(Process Incremental, Process Update etc.,) available for processing the dimensions.
I will creating a SSIS package to automate the processing. One more question is say, if Cube 2 fails during a day and Cube 1 has succesfully processed on the same day earlier, how do I revert back to the old state of Cube 2? Does this mean that I need to do a back up of the SSAS database before processing each cube?
I am in the midst of designing a new Data Warehouse system. As we get further into the design of the system, the more we are realising how complex our ETL is going to be and that the amount of time it will take to run could be significant i.e. a few days! My question is obviously I don't want to have a down time in my relational system for this long and prevent my users from accessing the data for days at a time each month. So what functionality should I be looking at to allow me to maintain a working copy of the data that users can query whilst I perform database updates and then perform a quick promotion of the updated data to users for querying?
If you can point me in the direction of the right functionality in SQL Server 2005 and possible some relevant white papers that cover this sort of scenario I would be grateful.

Is there anybody out there that can help me on how can I know the processing time taken for one transaction by using SQL Analyzer??
1)For example, I want to update using Analyzer and I would like to know time taken to do this update???
2) How to reduce processing time by using Store Procedures that using cursor?? I have add in some commit statement in my update statement.. Is there any other ways??
I've noticed lately that my queries through ADO/VB are taking alot longer to process at certain times. The query and the result information never changes, only that at certain times the query takes alot longer than usual. I thought that I possibly need more licenses, or it might be network traffic. I currently use MS SQL Server 2000 small business Ed(5 Cals).
Has anyone any information about performance problems due to licensing issues?
I need to extract a particular file from our AS 400 system on a daily basis and do some processing on it. Also I want to do the daily processing only on those records that have been added/updated since the initial load. Here is the approach and possible implementation.
Approach I have the DB2 source data containing 10 columns (Col1 to Col5 together form the key) and the rest are attributes. I am interested only in the key and two attributes. So I load my table with only Col1 to Col7 ( 5 for key and the two attributes). I then do my processing on this table.
Here is the implementation given by a member of dbforums -
You'll then have to deal with 3 potential actions,
INSERT: New records on the file. DELETES: Records that don't exists. UPDATES: Records that are on the file, but attributes have changed.
INSERT INTO myTable99(Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5) SELECT '1','1','a','b','c' UNION ALL SELECT '1','2','d','e','f' UNION ALL SELECT '1','3','g','h','i' UNION ALL SELECT '1','4','j','k','l' --DELETED
INSERT INTO myTable00(Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5) SELECT '1','1','a','b','c' UNION ALL--NO CHANGE SELECT '1','2','x','y','z' UNION ALL-- UPDATE (My comment - Instead of an update I want to insert a new record) SELECT '1','3','g','h','i' UNION ALL--NO CHANGE SELECT '2','3','a','b','c'--INSERT GO
SELECT * FROM myTable99 SELECT * FROM myTable00 GO
--DO DELETES FIRST (My comment - Before deleting, I want to copy the rows that I am going to delete on a separate table to maintain history. Then I want to delete from a). I don't get the logic. If the rows of the old extract are not in new extract then delete them. So shouldn't it be <> instead of =. why the where clause condition) DELETE FROM a FROM myTable99 a LEFT JOIN myTable00 b ON a.Col1 = b.Col1 AND a.Col2 = b.Col2 WHERE b.Col1 IS NULL AND b.Col2 IS NULL
-- INSERT (My comment - I don't get the logic of the where. If the rows of the old extract are not in new extract then delete them. So shouldn't it be <> instead of =)
INSERT INTO myTable99(Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5) SELECT a.Col1, a.Col2, a.Col3, a.Col4, a.Col5 FROM myTable00 a LEFT JOIN myTable99 b ON a.Col1 = b.Col1 AND a.Col2 = b.Col2 WHERE b.Col1 IS NULL AND b.Col2 IS NULL
-- UPDATE
UPDATE a SET Col3 = b.Col3 , Col4 = b.Col4 , Col5 = b.Col5 FROM myTable99 a INNER JOIN myTable00 b ON a.Col1 = b.Col1 AND a.Col2 = b.Col2 AND ( a.Col3 <> b.Col3 OR a.Col4 <> b.Col4 OR a.Col5 <> b.Col5) GO ------------
Can anybody look at My comments and answer them or revise this code template if need be?

I created a DTS which does some data transformations before processing some cubes. It finished processing in abt 10mins when I run this DTS manually. However, when I schedule this DTS to run, it took around 3 over hours to run. Does anybody know where the problem lies? I have been looking for a solution for this for a long time and I'm hoping that somebody can help me...
