Scheduling Tasks
Mar 13, 2008Hi guys,
Here it goes...
I've created a package in SSIS and deployed it. When I click the deployed package, it will let me execute it, so far, so good!
Now I need to create a scheduled task that will run the package every 5 minutes and I did so by using the Windows Server Task Scheduler. It is configured to run the package every five minutes... Although, I thought it would run the package, it actually just opens the same window as it would if I double-clicked the deployed package - which is to be expected...
What should I do to create a task that acutally runs the package by itself instead of just opening that window?
Thanks all

Scheduling Tasks In SQL Server 2000
Nov 9, 2006Hi all
I want to schedule a task that checks if a file(s) exists on d:Acc and then run the sql script shown below i.e. with the file(s) to load the content of the file(s) every day new files will be loaded. after the file(s) are loaded the file(s) are deleted.
I currently can achieve the above using Java and sql server and running the program as a scheduled task... (only reason for change would be that i wouldnt require java, JDBC etc to run the software it would be easy manage, migrate etc)
I wanted to find out if it can be done with sql server directly? (i.e. check if file exist and ased on that carryout the task or other wise just ignore) What do i need to look for? does sql server have a procedural language in it to be used for such thing? does sql server have an inbuilt task scheduler?
I am currently using the following script in a java program please note that i have used fixed values in this script for readabliity (of what i am doing)..
@bulk_cmd varchar(1000)
SET @bulk_cmd = 'BULK INSERT AccInv..VW_AccInvoice
FROM ''d:Invbatch2001.txt''
WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR = '','', ROWTERMINATOR = '''+CHAR(10)+''')'
EXEC(@bulk_cmd)
How To Count The Tasks Inside A Package Programmatically?
May 7, 2007Hi there,
I'm trying to keep track of the ETL process inserting/updating a row in one table for each package that finish in my ETL process when executing. So far, I created a Script task that increments by one a variable (counter) and then open a connection to my database an insert/update my table. What I want to see is Step 1/30, Step 2/30 and so on. Right know I can display Step 1, Step 2 but how can I get the overall number of tasks within a package?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
Sincerely,
Ricardo
Unable To Execute Package Programmatically With Expression Based Tasks
Dec 8, 2006Hi,
I am trying to programmatically execute a package that contains an Execute SQL Task component bound to a variable for its "SqlStatementSource" property (via an expression). The variable is of type String and contains a simple value of "SELECT 1". The Execute SQL Task contains an expression that sets the SqlStatementSource property to the value of this variable.
The package runs fine when I execute it via dtexec or BIDS, but when I attempt to run it via the object model, I receive the following error message:
The result of the expression ""@[User::Sql]"" on property "SqlStatementSource" cannot be written to the property. The expression was evaluated, but cannot be set on the property.
I did a search on this forum and noticed quite a few threads about this same issue, but no explanation/solution. We have quite a few packages that have dynamically constructed SQL statements for Execute SQL Tasks, and they are all failing to run via the object model. Is there something that I am missing?
Thanks,
Vitaly
About Programmatically Disabling The Tasks, Manually Terminating Further Flow In A Package
Apr 19, 2007Hi folks,
I have come across a situation where there 10 tasks. The second task on the flow is a script task which disables all further tasks based on a condition. I thought that the logic would be better if we force terminate the package successfully at this stage itself. How can this be done.
Thanks

Programmatically Iterating Tasks/components In The Data Flow Portion Of A Package.
Mar 6, 2007HI All,
In several threads there has been discussion regarding adding connection managers to a package's data flow, etc. My challenge is that I have a large solution that contains many packages, and I need to change the connection manager linked to the data flow in all of the packages. When the solution was initially designed, data sources were used, and it has become a tedious maintenance issue to keep those in sync. We want to use a standard OLEDB connection manager, but adding a connection manager to each package and editing the corresponding data flow tasks in each package to use that new connection manager is a daunting task. I've coded a .Net module to access the packages, remove the old connection manager (data source) and add the new OLEDB data source. However, as I traverse the objects in the package hierarchy, when I come to the data flow object, the innerobject is not a dts object, but rather a _com object.. I can't seem to find any documentation/examples as to how to iterate the tasks within a data flow and change the connection manager. If you have any information, that would be quite helpful. If you reply with a code sample, if you would be so kind as to relate it to one of the sample packages provided with SSIS so I can run it, that would be great.
Thank you.
Steve.
Job Scheduling In Sql 7.0
May 30, 2002I have set a job to run hourly between 8 am and 8 pm. I mark the schedule as enabled and mark the job as enabled. It will run for that day and then the enable check on the schedule clears out. I have several other jobs that run without this problem. Has anyone heard of this before and can this be effectively monitored?
thanks, mary

DTS Scheduling
Aug 11, 1999Hello all,
I am trying to schedule DTS package. Seems like I have two options
1. Save DTS package as a File and Run it using dtsrun function
2. Save DTS package on server and use scheduling wizard
If I use method #1 it works fine but you have ti create job, schedule it
and yada, yada, yada.....
Method #2 seems mach more simple but then I use it it does nothind.
Am I missing something?
Thank you an advance.

DTS Scheduling
Jul 22, 1999I'm having a little trouble getting a DTS package to run as a scheduled event. I have created the same one(an export to Access db on the same computer) as a local package and a repository package. Both will run normally when I start them manually from the DTS screen, but they will not run from the scheduler. It seems like this might be some kind of permissions problem, but it could easily be something else, since I've never used DTS before.
Thanks
DTS Scheduling
Feb 21, 2001I created a DTS to transfer two tables from one server to another and set up a schedule to run once everyday. I could not get it to run. I got this warning message from evetlog:

But when I execute it manually, it run successfully.
I am using MS SQL 7.0
Your help is much appreciated.

Job Scheduling
Jan 29, 2004Hi,
I have two jobs scheduled on the Agent. Each job has ten steps. The next step is executed only if the previous suceeds.
I want Job 2 to execute only if Job 1 suceeds. How do I schedule that?
I was thinking that I can have the ten steps of Job 2 as steps (11 to 20) of Job 1 with each step executing after the previous one succeeds. If I do that then I can get rid of Job 2.
Let me know what approach you would advise.
Thanks
Job Scheduling
Jun 24, 2008I am trying to schedule a simple job to run a stored procedure in my database. The stored procedure runs perfectly when I do so manually, however when I ask a job to run it, it gives me the following error:
Access to the remote server is denied because the current security context is not trusted [SQLSTATE 42000](Error 15274).
The stored procedure does create a linked server (to an ORACLE database) and executes some commands across it. I've tried doing the link server creation as a separate step in the job and it executes that just fine so it has no issues creating the server, it just dies when it tries to use it. The job owner is the same user I've been using the execute the procedure manually. I also run the procedure step as that same user. But I still have this problem. Someone please help me!!

Nov 15, 2007My boss wants to schedule a job that will run on the Wednesday night before the first Thursday of every month, recur on the first Thursday, and again on the Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday following the first Thursday of the month.
I've already got the first Thursday scheduled. Is there a way to schedule the other days. I haven't been able to find any documentation on how to do it, if it is possible. And I've looked at the sp_add_jobschedule to noavail.
Any help would be much appreciated. Even if it is telling me it can't be done.

Scheduling Bug?
Dec 20, 2006Hi!
I'm trying to create a subsciption for my report. In first creation I can do scheduling just fine, but when I try to edit my schedule, it's totally different. It shows value 1.1.0001 and when I try to change it, it's gives me first message:
value of '1.1.0001 0:00:00' is not valid for 'Value'. 'Value' should be between 'MinDate' and 'MaxDate'. Parameter name: Value (System.Windows.Forms)
and after that when pushing OK it gives me message: "The required field StartDateTime is missing from the input structure. (rsMissingElement)".
Do you think it's a bug or is there something which I'm doing wrong?

DBA Tasks
Feb 21, 2008Hi guys
Just want to know whether you guys do the following as a dba:
1. Setup a logging for tracking database as well as table size that containing size, indexing size. You can measure the growth.
2. Record for indexing for each database. I think this is over kill task.
3. Record database setup such as create statistic, update statistic etc.
These tasks can be automate to record every month for example and record this into Administration database for instance.
What else you guys record?
Thanks
How To Run Only Certain Tasks
Mar 14, 2006If I'm in the Data Flow tab in VS 2005, how can I select only certain components to run to test? I tried highlighting the ones that I want to run but it's running all of them in the tab...some of the components I want to take out for testing then maybe put back in later. If I delete the tasks I don't want to run, then I end up having to recreate them

View 15 Replies View RelatedCan I Set Expressions Programmatically?
Apr 16, 2007I'm building SSIS packages through code and I would like to set the properties of some custom tasks (not data flow tasks) to expressions. I've done some searches but turned up nothing. This is the only thing I'm hitting a brick wall on at the moment; Books Online has been excellent in detailing how to create packages via code up to this point.
For the sake of argument, let's say I want to set the SqlStatementSource property of an Execute SQL task to this value:
"INSERT INTO [SomeTable] VALUES (NEWID(), '" + @[User:omeStringVariable] + "')"
What would the code look like?
Programmatically Saving As PDF?
Jun 9, 2007Ok. So I have this ASP.NET page and I've programmatically taken a report from the report server and rendered it in PDF. Now I would like to take this a step further and save the report as a pdf document on the local machine.
So at this point I have a byte array representing the document, now how would I save this as a pdf on the local machine? I'm unaware of an ASP Response method to allow this and I'm unaware of a SSRS ReportingService method, but as I said I'm unaware...
Any ideas, thoughts, resources are all welcome.
Scheduling With SQL Databases.
Feb 22, 2007I know enough about Databases to get myself in trouple. So maybe someone can point me in the right direction, or help me out. I work for the American Red Cross in Provo UT. We want to be able to put class registration on line so that someone can visit our website chose the class they want to take, register and pay for it all on-line. Our website http://www.redcrossut.org is hosted with godaddy and I am able to post a SQL Database. I know that our website as it stands is very poor. The people who have maintained it in the past have no idea what they were doing, my job is not the website, I am over Health & Safety Training, but have done some work with websites for fun in the past. I know a little about Visual Studio and plan to rebuild the site using C#. I can build a basic Database and interface to it with Visual Studio, Godaddy can help me with the payment part, but I have no idea how to set up SQL to allow scheduling. Any help would be appreciated. Even if it’s just a link to a tutorial.

Manual Job Scheduling
Aug 30, 2002We are using an MSDE database engine (1.0=sql7) as a report scheduler on a web server. I can access MSDE via SQL7 Enterprise Manager to connect and view MSDE, but cannot use the DTS and job scheduling as MSDE seems to lack needed components. Using Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q241397 as a guide, I was able to create a backup of the msdb database using stored procedures including sp_add_job, sp_add_jobserver,etc, that are already present in the msdb database.
My problem is that I need to create and schedule a job for another MSDE database called CE8. This database was created by the reporting app, and contains no stored procedures. It looks to me like only msdb has the needed job scheduling procs. Does this imply that I am supposed to schedule all jobs for all databases via msdb database, or will I need to copy all job scheduling stored procedures into the other CE8 database, then create a job? Hope this makes sense,
Randy
DTS Scheduling Problem
Mar 30, 2001Does anyone else ever have a problem getting scheduled DTS packages to run? I have a package that is replicating from an Access database. If I manually execute the DTS package, it works fine. If I try to schedule the same package, it bombs. Also what password do you use for the Owner and User when you are trying to schedule a SQL Server (not repository) DTS package? I've tried my loging password and it I still get problems.
