SQL 2012 :: SSIS Conversion Between Types Is Not Supported
Nov 18, 2014
As part of an ETL conversion I have dataflow task created that copies data from one table to another, we use it as a way to rename fields and change data types. What is strange is that the OLE DB SQL destination has not issue if I copy data from an int to smallint and in another case from an int to a numeric field and it runs fine. So I decided to test using a SQL Server Destination as I heard it may be faste that using OLE Db.
No I am getting the following error
Error: 0xC02020F5 at Insert into TRANSACTION, SQL Server Destination [32]: The column "ID" can't be inserted because the conversion between types DT_I4 and DT_NUMERIC is not supported.
Error: 0xC02020F5 at Insert into TRANSACTION, SQL Server Destination [32]: The column "ID1" can't be inserted because the conversion between types DT_I4 and DT_I2 is not supported.
I do understand the error but not why it runs fine using the OLE DB but when running it through SQL Server Destination I get this error.
I'm not a DBA but I'm doing what is turning into way too much work... Yes I understand you want to do memory intensive data conversions and SQL server is not tolerant, etc....
But, I have to get my data from a flat source into a table in SQL server. I know DT_I1 is a 1 byte signed integer, I see System.Byte, but surprise, NONE of the TYPES in defining my table in SQL Server Management Studio correspond to any type that it accepts.
What am I doing wrong?
I have a table in SQL Server. I know DT_I8 is Bigint, I know DT_I4 is Int. Bigint and Int, for example, are two types I have access to when I'm building my table. But what on EARTH is DT_I1? It is NOT a TYPE that I can dropdown and choose.
My SSIS package has a Flat File Source that points to my comma delimeted file on my PC, it has a Data Conversion element that seems to do nothing..., and of course a SQL Server Destination which is my table.
I would rather just have the SSIS package create the right table on the fly.
DTS was much easier, I know, not as efficient for 1,000,000 rows, but guess what, there are still small to medium size businesses that don't need that efficiency to get in 1MM rows +, we just need to get our jobs done.
Help...
P.S. I'm creating the SSIS in MS Visual Studio Professional.
Error at Data Flow Task [SQL Server Destination [14]]: The column "Opened On" can't be inserted because the conversion between types DT_DATE and DT_DBTIMESTAMP is not supported.
Error at Data Flow Task [DTS.Pipeline]: "component "SQL Server Destination" (14)" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_ISBROKEN".
Error at Data Flow Task [DTS.Pipeline]: One or more component failed validation.
Error at Data Flow Task: There were errors during task validation.
I tried using Data Conversion and Derived column, still this error prevails. Any help ????
and coupled it to a Flat File Source. The Flat File Source suggested that the type was DT-I1.
Next I created a €śSQL Server Destination task and connected the output of the Flat File to the Sql Destination. In the Destination editor I created a table, whose one column was declared to be a sql smallint.
Here€™s the problem: the Sql Server Destination now displays a red circle with a white €śx€?. The tooltip says that: €śThe column €śColumn 0€? can€™t be inserted because the conversion between types DT_I1 and DT_I2 is not supported€?
Can anyone explain why the conversion is not supported?
TIA,

P.S. It's not kidding! When I changed the Flat File Source type to DT-I2 everything worked fine.
I´m exporting an ms-excel file, then I use a lookup transformation to get a field from a SQL Server 2005 table. The Lookup transformation editor, after selecting the table, shows a warning that says:
at least one mapping between a column from available input columns ans a column from available lookup columns must be defined on the columns page.
So I try to make a relationship in the Lookup transformation editor's column tab where I find the Available input columns and the available lookup columns but I get the following error:
The following columns cannot be mapped: [Department, DEP_CLEGALCODE] One or more columns do not have supported data types, or their data types do not match.
The field in SLQ Server is varchar(10) and the input field is a derived column transformation; I have tried different Data Types but I always have the same error.
The DataFlow is: ExcelSource --> Derived Column --> Lookup --> Flat file destination
I'm trying to import data from an Informix Database to my SQL Server 2005 database with the import/export wizard. I have an ODBC-connection that works, Access fetches data with no errors. From the wizard I can only choose to use the IBM Informix OLE DB Provider as datasource. As fare as I know the OLE DB Provider is using settings from the ODBC-driver?
In SQL Server 2000 there is a posibillity to choose Other(ODBC provider) as datasource which works against this database. Any ideas how i can use an ODBC-datasource?
If I try to use the IBM Informix OLE DB Provider I get an error message after the first step of the wizard:
Cannot get the supported data types from the database connection "Provider=Ifxoledbc;Password=;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=uid;Data Source=db@server".
I have a data flow task in which I have a ADO NET source and OLE DB Destination. I have in the ADO NET source a sql command which pulls all the columns in a table. My requirement is to ignore a particular column,say column99. I opened advanced editor and deleted the mapping between the external and output columns for column99. I had also set the Error and Truncation to "Ignore Failure" for column99. I had also mapped the destination column to <Ignore> in OLD DB destination.
But this still throws the error-
Description: The ADO NET Source was unable to process the data. Field table-column99 missing an escape character for a quote.Unable to update PK WHERE clause.Error processing data batch.
I created an Integration Services Package that runs fine from my local computer using BIDS. However when I imported into our SQL Server and try to run it from there I get the following error:
DTS_E_PRODUCTLEVELTOLOW. The product level is insufficient for component "Data Conversion"
We are running SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition 64-bit.
We have integration services installed on the server. Is data conversion something that is not supported on Standard Edition?
Also have a similar message for "Send Mail Task."
Is there anywhere that outlines what features are supported on each version?
Below is the error I get when trying to convert a Visual FoxPro memo field to a DT_WSTR (4000 ) in a SQL table. It does not let me convert a DT_TEXT to a DT_WSTR.
The component is not in a valid state. The validation errors are: Error at NMF [Data Conversion [6328]]: Conversion from "DT_TEXT" to "DT_WSTR" is not supported.
Do you want the component to fix these errors automatically?
I have a DTS that pulls data in from a table in MysQL and inserts it into a tablle in SQL Server. it's failing when I run the step with the "requestd conversion is not supported" error, but when testing each single column copy in the Data Transformation step, it passes.
I just want an exact copy of the data.
the source MySQL table is....
CREATE TABLE `entry` ( `web_id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `web_name` varchar(40) NOT NULL default '', `web_email` varchar(60) NOT NULL default '', `web_cli` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '', `web_pu_id` varchar(60) default NULL, `web_answer` varchar(60) NOT NULL default '', `web_ddi` varchar(30) default NULL, `web_time_entered` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00', `web_ip_address` varchar(20) default NULL, `web_entry_status` set('failed','success') NOT NULL default '', `web_polled` enum('true','false') default 'false', PRIMARY KEY (`web_id`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM;
and the SQl Server destination is....

I have an SSIS package that pulls data from a MYSQL DB (Using RSSBus for Salesforce in SSIS to accomplish this). Most of the columns are loading properly, but I have many columns that I need to convert.
I have been using the Data Conversion dataflow task in SSIS to convert the rows.
I have 2 data conversions that work on most of the columns, but the DESCRIPTION column continues to return an error saying "Cannot convert between unicode and non-unicode types", regardless of what I choose on the Data Conversion task. So, basically I want to dump this column data into a SQL table with NVARCHAR datatypes. Here is what I am doing in my SSIS package...
1) Grab subset of data from SOURCE 2) Converts to TEXTSTREAM. (Data Conversion) 3) Converts to STRING. (Data Conversion) 4) Load Destination table. (OLE DB Destination)
I have also tried to simply convert the values to STRING, but that doesn't work either.
So, I have 2 Data Conversions working here that process most of the data correctly. What I can do to load the DESCRIPTION column?
fix the below SP which is having cursor output with an alternate logic which can make the SP work.(may be using temp table or any other option)
CREATE PROCEDURE Get_IDS /* * SSMA warning messages: * O2SS0356: Conversion from NUMBER datatype can cause data loss. */ @p_uid float(53), @return_value_argument varchar(8000) OUTPUT
There are a few databases I work with that have been designed where varchar columns are used to store what actually displays on the front end as Ints, Decimals, Varchars, Datetimes, checkboxes.
I often have to write integrations with these databases bringing data in and prefer to validate the data whilst loading from the staging tables.
I have seen allsorts of values being passed into the staging tables that will load into the target database because the columns are all varchars but the values don't display on the front end because the app actively filters bad values out.
What I would like to do is for my validation scripts to warn up front of potentially invalid datatypes. My problem is that forexample the ISNUMERIC() function return 1 for the value ',1234' but a CONVERT(NUMERIC, ',1234') or CAST(',1234' AS NUMERIC) will fail with a "Error converting data type varchar to numeric).
I've been trying to locate a set of reliable datatype testing functions that will reliably determine if a varchar can be converted to a given data type or not.
When I opened the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio(Administrator), the message below is shown up.
`C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server1 10 ToolsBinnManagementStudioSQLWorkbenchProjectsSSMSEmptySqlProject.ssmssqlproj` cannot be opened because its project type (.ssmssqlproj) is not supported by this version of the application.
To open it, use a version that supports this type of project.
Using SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio, when I try to create a new OLEDB connection manager and I try to connect to the SQL 2005 DB, I get an error message saying that "Client is unable to establish connection Encryption not supported on the client"
This is ONLY in SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio!
If I connect to the same server using SQL Server Management Studio and using server type Integration Services, everything works just fine.
However this way I cannot create a working SSIS package from the client, if not working locally on the server, which is a bit nonsense.
I'm looking at building an SSIS workflow to integrate new XML product data from our supplier (they're switching to XML instead of the Current MS Access database they use). They're using a schema based on the OAGIS structure. When I try to load a Data Flow Task with the XML file, to attempt to parse it, and I specify the XSD schema they have provided, SSIS errors out by telling me:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio ------------------------------
Error at Data Flow Task [Data Import [1]]: The component "Data Import" (1) was unable to process the XML data. Substitution Groups not supported. See element "Dimensions" with "substitutionGroup=http://www.openapplications.org/oagis/9: Dimensions".
Pipeline component has returned HRESULT error code 0xC02092B0 from a method call. (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)
------------------------------ BUTTONS:
OK ------------------------------
Is there any way at all to get around this, or am I screwed? As I said, this data is provided to us by our supplier - we have no control over it, but I am looking to pull the data from XML and put it into a regular SQL table which I am in the process of defining - we have a large traffic e-commerce site and obviously cannot use XML as the "back-end".
Hi, I am trying to create a maintenance plan on an MSX server and push it out to a TSX server. When I try to run the job on the TSX server it goes into suspended status.
If I look in the SQLAGENT log I see the following error

my sql info is Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.3239.00 (X64) Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)
We have a query that joins column A int which is an int onto column B with contains only int's but was created as a varchar and can't be changed to an int at the moment.
Casting column a as a varchar in the ON of the join to left join seems to void the index altogether and the query just runs for every.
We are talking a few hundred million rows of data in each table.
Temp solution is select into a #Hash table as correct data type and index then use the #Hash table in the join.
I have a requirement of creating nested tables in SQL server. how to create them. Just to give a background I am trying to move the RDBMS from oracle to SQL server.
Structure of tables is as follows. I have table 'Employees' with address as one of the column. I have one more table with columns Street, Town, Dist, State. When I query the table 'Employees' I should see the attribute name and values of all the columns in address table in address column.
Employees: with columns: ID, FirstName, LastName, dept, gender, dob, address
Address (Nested table): with columns : Street, Town, Dist, State
This was done in oracle using Nested tables and user defined data types. what is alternative for this in SQL server. How can I achive this requirement in SQL server.
I have a win.forms application part of functionality of which is to show rdlc report. When I try to launch the application it says that ReportViewer assembly is missing, which was expected. When I downloaded and try to install viewer runtime from here: [URL] .....
I receive that Microsoft SQL Server System CLR Types are not installed and must be installed first. I downloaded appropriate installation from [URL] .... and it installed successfully. But when I try to run viewer runtime installation it still says that Microsoft SQL Server System CLR Types are not installed. What do I miss?
I've just started looking at SSIS and have encountered what should hopefully be a simple problem to solve. I have a pipe-separated source file that looks like this (I've added Line numbers for simplicity):
In addition to a header and footer records, this file contains three record types for each person.
Record types are identified by the second column.
Each record type has a different number of columns:
Type 100 has 5 columns Type 200 has 4 columns Type 305 has 12 columns
The Row delimiter for all records is the {CR}{LF} character
I've set up a flat file input source and specified {CR}{LF} as the row delimiter for both header and data rows and the "|" character as the field delimiter.
It appears that SSIS is assuming that because the first data row has 5 columns, then everything must fit that format too. So the {CR}{LF} character that separates lines 02 and 03 is interpreted as text rather than a separation character and all remaining | field separators after 305 are interpreted as text containing in the fifth column. SSIS is also complaining that the last row is incomplete.
A bit like this (I've used tildes to indicate column separation):
I've seen one other reference to this behaviour but the response seemed to be SSIS doesn't know which columns are missing. In this scenario, we don't have missing columns, rather, we have different types of record in a single file. in DTS I would effectively parse the file once for each record type thus:
I've been writing this stuff for a while, and can't seem to come to the conclusion of how I should be retrieving data and assigning this data to variables.
Since i'm using SQL Server, I'm convinced that I should be using the datareaders GetSqlDouble (or whatever) function, but this would mean i need my local variables to be one of the SQL types. The problem with that is, that there will have to be lots of conversions done by me to be able to use a SQL type in my application.
For instance, I have a class where i'm retrieving dates. In order to retrieve them correctly (Null values included), I need to retrieve them with GetSqlDateTime(), then when it comes time to display the date in a table, i must first check for nulls, then convert to a string. This seems to be very cumbersome. Would I be better off just using GetDateTime(), and the .ToString method, and ignoring Sql Types all together?
so, basically, how are you guys using your sql server data? with the supplied sql types, and doing all of the post-processing work manually? I feel like i'm having trouble conveying my issue...hopefully someone knows what i mean....i'd just like some direction to save trouble in the long run, since i feel like there's got to be a better way...
I am importing the values for field Atype from a .csv file as DT_STR, 13 and I need to fit them into a bit type CType field.
When I write the conditional split ((ISNULL(Atype)?"a":Atype)!=(ISNULL(CType)?"9":CType)) it says that the DT_WSTR and DT_I4 types are incompatible and that I need to explicitly cast with a cast operator. I haven't been able to make it work, how to explicitly cast?
I am in need of converting serial date to regular date ie...735510.40461 and only need the hours, minutes and seconds, I have used the examples I've seen on different forums,
CREATE PROC CLEAR_MY_TABLE @TableStat varchar(30) AS If OBJECT_ID('MyDB.dbo.' + @TableStat + '') is not null BEGIN ---PRINT 'I FOUND THE TABLE' DECLARE @count INT = -1; SELECT @count = (Select COUNT(*) FROM [dbo]. + @TableStat); IF (@count > 0) BEGIN TRUNCATE TABLE @TABLESTAT END
Within in Visual Studio 2012 solution, I have several projects, one of which is a Database project. I am defining several tables. The one in question is:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblKppHierarchyPcl] ( [ID] NUMERIC(18,0) NOT NULL, [Name] VARCHAR(500), [PartStructureKey] NUMERIC(18,0) NOT NULL, [PartNumber] VARCHAR(500) NOT NULL, [ParentPartNumber] VARCHAR(500) NULL,
[code]...
Error SQL72014: .Net SqlClient Data Provider: Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 76 Conversion.failed when converting the varchar value 'Coolant Quick Disconnect' to data type int.So it has a problem with inserting 'Coolant Quick Disconnect' into the Name column. The Name column is CLEARLY a varchar column but somehow it thinks it's an int column.
I have a table ("MyData") with string columns that have nvarchar data that looks like this:
ColA -------- 42/90 78/109
I plan to do a mathematical grouping on the numerator (eg: 0-10,11-20,21-30, etc... ), So I need to grab the numerator and turn it into an int. For reasons I can't get into, I have to do this in pure T-SQL.
So my question: How would I write a select statement that regex pattern matches "^([0-9]+)/" on ColA and returns integers instead of text?
E.g. THis Query:
SELECT [magic t-sql syntax] as Converted_ColA from MyData
I have been trying to convert datetime but keep getting this error(Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string.It works just fine if I don't use execute sp_executesql,.
