SSIS SMTP Connection Manager
Dec 3, 2006I plan to send a email from SSIS package after performing a task.
In order to do that, I need to incoporate my account Name and Password in SMTP connection Manager in order to connect to SMTP server in Yahoo.
How can I do that ?
How To Set Port Number On Smtp Connection Manager Send Mail Task
Oct 29, 2007Hello,
We have an SSIS job that runs once a day and sends emails.
For security reasons, IT switched the send-mail porton the smtp server from 25 to a different number (let's say 1234).
So, I changed the SSIS SMTP Connection Manager's smtpServer string to smptserver:1234
However, this does not seem to be working. I keep getting 'Send Mail Failure' error.
Any ideas how to set the port number for sending emails using SSIS?
thanks much,

Changes To Shared Flat File Connection Manager Adversely Affect Package
Jul 14, 2007I am having frustration with issues I'm seeing within Development Studio. Here's the problem:
A fixed-width flat file is to be imported into SQL 2005. I am running from within BIDS on my workstation and send the data remotely to the server. It has over 200 fields, and I am attempting to import them into dimension tables, and one fact table. I had to manually create the columns on the flat file connection manager for this process, since the data file is delimited.
The SSIS solution has one project, and several independent data flow tasks within it. After I set up the fcm, I mapped fields using a flat file source, hooked up a derived column and sort transform. The idea was to use a 3rd party tool, TableDifference, to implement a Type 2 dimension. I was able to successfully build three data flow tasks that ran correctly. Later, as was building new data flow tasks, our project people decided to change the data types of several of the fields from Datetime to character, and also rename another 40+ fields. I dutifully kept my fcm synchronized, since column mappings are automatic when the names match; data type changes were also unavoidable on some of the columns.
The problem was noticed after I changed some of the columns in the fcm. My flat file source adapters on all the tasks needed to resolve changed metadata so I had to 'edit' and save them again. The derived column, sort, and downstream transforms also had to be updated. I saw strange behavior on previously tested data flow tasks. Some of them gave me errors even connecting to their sources. Other times I saw erroneous paths being taken which led to data being changed incorrectly on the dimension tables (new records being added even if there was an existing match, records being marked as expired incorrectly, etc.).
Are there known issues with editing a shared file connection manager after it has already been referred to within data flow tasks? It appears that the only way to avoid the problems I've seen is to either:
1. Create separate fcm's for each data flow task. Use 'filler' fields for the ranges of all the columns in between each referenced column. This way if you have to change anything with it, the only rework involved is limited to the data flow task using it.
2. Create one fcm for the entire package and NEVER change anything with it. If a column name is wrong, use a derived column to rename it in the data flow. If a data type changes, try to use a data conversion transform, but be sure to rename its output column so that it is not called 'data conversion.<field name>'. I think that's done in the Advanced Editor for the sort task.
My experience using BIDS has been hot and cold. It's nice to be able to quickly build the tasks you need, but it's as if the metadata (pipeline) is much too sensitive to change and requires a lot of touching up, either upstream at the source adapter level, or across data flow tasks when you make changes to the FCM. Maybe the problem is just limited to flat files...
Are there any tips or lessons learned from anyone on this? I've got another developer willing to create the FCM for other data feeds so I can copy/paste them into other projects. It would just be nice to know there was a bug fix or a good method to avoid all this 'rework' when you have to make changes to the FCM after the fact.
Thanks in advance.
SQL 2005 Standard Won't Accept Remote Connections - Followed All FAQs But Options Aren't Available
Sep 24, 2006Hi,
SQL Server 2005 isn't accepting any connection other than SQL Management Studio from the local machine. However, even that's exhibiting strange behavior (please see below for more details).
I've read through all the common errors regarding enabling remote connections via the SAC tool, making sure protocols are enabled, etc. This case seems to be completely outside. Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Elias
[1] Client side:
What is the connection string in you app or DSN? N/A. Can't connect via any remote method, including client Control Panel > ODBC > create DSN, SQL Server Enterprise Manager, third party application.
If client fails to connect, what is the client error messages? Several, depending on method: "server does not exist or access denied", "error has occurred... under default settings, SQL Server does not accept remote connections", etc.
Is the client remote or local to the SQL server machine? Remote
Can you ping your server? YesCan you telnet to your SQL Server? No. However, there's a functional instance of SQL Server 2000 on the same domain which has no problems- telnet also fails to that instance, even locally from either machine using the 127.0.0.1 address. Telnet functions for other ports.
What
is your client database provider? N/A Or/And, what is your client
application? SQL Management Studio and others
Is your client computer in the same domain as the Server computer? Same domain
What protocol the client enabled? TCPIP when I attempted to create the DSN. Not sure what protocol SQL Management Studio uses.
Do
you have aliases configured that match the server name portion of your
connection string? NoDo you select force encryption on server and/or client? No
[2] Server side:
What is the MS SQL version? SQL Server 2005
What is the SKU of MS SQL? Standard
What
is the SQL Server Protocol enabled? [Shared Memory | TCPIP | Named
Pipes ] Have tried all three individually and together. Configuration Manager exhibits strange behavior (see below)Does the server start successfully? Server starts successfully when the machine boots. However once it's stopped, it can't be restarted (see below)
If SQL Server is a named instance, is the SQL browser enabled? Default instance
What is the account that the SQL Server is running under? Local SystemDo
you make firewall exception for your SQL server TCP port if you want
connect remotely through TCP provider? Not sure, but SQL Server 200 instance is working OK
Do
you make firewall exception for SQL Browser UDP port 1434? Unknown
[3] Platform:
What is the OS version? Client: Windows XPSP2 Server: Windows Server 2003
Do you have third party antivirus, anti-spareware software installed? Client: Trend Micro Server: UnknownOther behavior:
A separate instance of SQL Server 2000 on a different machine on the same domain is functioning without problems.
Telnet to either SQL Server (functional 2000 or problem 2005) on port 1433 is not possible - even when attempted from the local machine using 127.0.0.1! Telnet to both machines works using other ports.
When creating a DSN from a client machine, problem 2005 instance is in list of available SQL Servers, however connection fails ("SQL Server denied access or does not exist").
MSSQLSERVER service starts automatically on boot. However, once stopped the service can not be restarted. Message given: "SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service on Local Computer Started and then Stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for example, the Performance Logs and Alerts Service."

SQL Server Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections tool does not display Database Engine option as indicated by this MS guide to enabling remote connections: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;914277
SQL Server communication manager shows TCP, Shared memory, named pipes enabled. However event log seems to show instance not listening via any protocol. Message displayed as: "SQL Server listening on ." (should read: "Server is listening on ['any' <ipaddress> <ipv4> <Port Number>])
Several answers indicated uninstall and reinstall could solve these problems. However, wizard refused to uninstall SQL Server.
Attempted disabling Shared Memory as documentation indicates this protocol gets used first. No luck.
Access through SQL Server Management Studio works, from local machine only.
Able to ping machine by name and IP.
Using Connection Manager Connections Inside A Script Component
Feb 14, 2006Within a data flow I have a script component that I want to perform some data calls from. I want to execute SQL commands to connections already defined in the package's connection manager.
Is there a way to set my script's connection variable to the connection manager connection? Or, can I use the connection manager connections directly from within the script?
Deleting Old, Unused Connections From Connection Manager Causes Errors
Oct 29, 2007For some reason, when I try to delete old DB connections from the connection manager, it causes compilation errors because it is not removing the references from the meta data. I get Object ID errors where it is still trying to find the connection after it has been deleted. I have tried going to the code behind and searching then deleting the invalid reference, but that still does not work. I have a connection for 2 totally different databases that are no longer being used in the SSIS package and I would like to get rid of them.
Suggestions?

The Connection Type OLEDB Specified For Connection Manager Is Not Recognized As A Valid Connection Manager Type - Why?
Mar 17, 2008Greetings,
I have an SSIS package that I need to modify. It was developed in Visual Studio 2005 and runs faithfully in production on SQL Server 2005. Suddenly, I can't open the package on my own workstation. I see a big red "X" image and a message stating "Microsoft Visual Studio is unable to load this document." The real reason the document can't be loaded appears to be:
Error loading DataWarehouseLoader.dtsx: The connection type "OLEDB" specified for connection manager "Warehouse Logging OLE DB" is not recognized as a valid connection manager type. This error is returned when an attempt is made to create a connection manager for an unknown connection type. Check the spelling in the connection type name.
Does anyone know what causes this and what I can do? The package has been in production for 9 months and I've never seen this problem before.
Thanks,

Client Connection To SQL Server On Shared Hosting
Jul 23, 2005I'd like to do this:Have a SQL Server database hosted on a public facing web server.I want it to be held at an ISP/Web hosting company. Though I have ADSL hereI don't want to manage a server.I want some ASP pages accessing the database.I would also like for a very small number (probably 2) of users to accessthe database from a richer client. Perhaps Access/VB.I've tried using www.shanje.com, as a test. It seems to work, though thereare worries about security.I want to keep cost down!On 'normal' shared MS hosting, would it be possible to connect to the dbfrom a client like Access. The way most web hosts talk it doesn't look likeit.Is there any way of providing a richer client interface than plain webpages? I want things like autocomplete (beyond the first character) for dropdowns, keyboard shortcuts etc.This would be low volume. Essentially a private database held on theinternet.Yours, Jo

Mar 18, 2008Hi,
Our 32-bit applications connect to SQL Server 32-bit through OLEDB with Shared memory as preferred protocol. Our client applications and SQL Server generally reside on same machine.
We are evaluating possible impact when SQL Server 2008 64-bit is accessed with our 32-bit client applications running on 64bit WindowsServer 2008. Can shared memory protocol will be still used by underlying SQL server OLEDB dll considering the client application is 32-bit where as SQL Server is 64-bit ? Or it will switch to Named pipes or TCP/IP automatically ?

Failed OLEDB Connection: Cannot Aquire Connection From Connection Manager

Sql Server Express - Shared Hosting - Connection String - What Do You Guys Do?
Feb 2, 2007Hey,
I have a asp.net 2.0 app that has a sql server express backend. I have been scratching my head for weeks trying to find a good wasy to encrypt my connection string. I store the string in web.config (which in itself is in theory "safe" because it's not servable) and I have scoured the web to try to find a simple way to encrypt the connection string. Even using user store would require running aspreg_iis.exe on the host with a command prompt (which clearly I cannot do). It seems that everyone's solution requires running a command prompt executable on the server.
So I am left to wonder what everyone else does. I am not comfortable using just the web.config because a determined hacker could get to that info. Then again, a determined hacker could get into any system , I guess. There are no credit card #'s stored in this app, but in theory there must be a way. I run all access to the db through stored procedures with permissions, for whatever it's worth.
Thanks in advance!

I know the alternative solution is to make the "Transaction Option=Supported", but in my case I have run the whole flow in a single transaction. I came to know that this has been fixed in the service pack1(ref. to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914375). FYI.. some time it was running successful.
I have taken all the necessary step to run the SSIS package in a distributed transaction(like the steps for MSDTC) and also created the package flow in a sequence.
I was going through the link - http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=160340&SiteID=1 but all those didn't solve my problem.
If anyone can help me it will be great. or it is a bug in SSIS?

SQL Server 2008 :: Connection Manager Not Using Connection String Value
Feb 19, 2015I have a child package where the ConnectionString property of a Connection Manager is set by a Parent Package Variable Configuration. I set up a script task that brings up a message box with the value of the ConnectionString property right before the dataflow task.
MessageBox.Show(Dts.Connections["CPU_*"].ConnectionString.ToString());When I run the parent package, the message box shows that the connection string is changing with every iteration, but in the dataflow it always draws the data from the same source.
The connection manager is an ADO.Net type, RetainSameConnection is set to False, and I've been researching this for days.
(Update 2/23/2015): To make this stranger, when I look at the diagnostic logs, they tell me that when the new connections are being opened they are using the new connection strings.
Connection Manager Not Showing New Connection From Data Source...

I want to change the package before the Data Soruces were created to use them, but when I right click in the Connection Managers pane "New Connection From Data Source.." is not an option.
Did I not add it to the Solution properly?
How do I get it to show?
Did I not refresh something?

Edit Connection Manager Connection String At Runtime With C#

I have a super simple package that inserts x000's of rows into a temporary table. The data source is a file that the user will upload. I need to be able to tell the package what file to upload. I'm thinking the simplest thing would be to edit the connectionString property of the SourceConnectionFlatFile at runtime. Is this possible? What form should the file path be in (UNC, other)? And, are there any other considerations I should be aware of?
