First of all, I get the following error message for one of my packages which uses user variables:
SSIS package "UsageAnalysis.dtsx" starting. Information: 0x4004300A at Perform xmlState Shredding, DTS.Pipeline: Validation phase is beginning. Information: 0x4004300A at Update Analysis Table, DTS.Pipeline: Validation phase is beginning. Information: 0x4004300A at Update Analysis Table, DTS.Pipeline: Validation phase is beginning. Error: 0xC001700E at UsageAnalysis: A truncation occurred during evaluation of the expression. Error: 0xC0019004 at UsageAnalysis: The expression for variable "GetAnalysisData" failed evaluation. There was an error in the expression. Error: 0xC02020E9 at Update Analysis Table, UsageAnalysis Source [1]: Accessing variable "User::GetAnalysisData" failed with error code 0xC001700E. Error: 0xC0024107 at Update Analysis Table: There were errors during task validation. Warning: 0x80019002 at Usage Analysis Process: SSIS Warning Code DTS_W_MAXIMUMERRORCOUNTREACHED. The Execution method succeeded, but the number of errors raised (5) reached the maximum allowed (1); resulting in failure. This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors. SSIS package "UsageAnalysis.dtsx" finished: Failure.
Now my package has the following variables: GetMaxUsageID: scope package level, type string, statement SELECT MAX(UsageID) AS MaxUsageID FROM XX.XXX MaxUsageID: scope package level, type int32, default value 0, value get assigned from the following statement executed from sql task that runs GetMaxUsageID variable as above GetAnalysisData: scope package level, type string, Evaluate as Expression "SELECT * FROM dbo.UsageAnalysis WHERE UsageID > " + (DT_STR, 8, 1252) @[User::MaxUsageID]
The package has worked fine until MaxUsageID value reached to 10,00,000 and since then I have been getting above mentioned error message. The problematic step is related to Data Flow task where I use GetAnalysisData. I have tried replacing user variable with literal as follows
"SELECT * FROM dbo.UsageAnalysis WHERE UsageID > 1000000"
the error message stays the same. Please note that package has worked fine before and it still works ok if I don't use user variables. Obviously, some of you would see eliminating user variables as workaround but I would appreciate if cause of that error message could be investigated.
I think I know the answer to this but thought I'd ask anyway.
I have a conditional split to check a column for null values or empty string values. It looks like this:
(!ISNULL(Ballot)) || (LEN(TRIM(Ballot)) > 0) My question is: Are both sides of the expression evaluated? My testing says yes, because a Null value causes an error. Is there a way to short circuit the evaluation like the || operator in C# or the (less than elegant, and seemingly threatening) OrElse operator in VB? Whats the best alternative:
A slightly more complex expression that turns a null value into an empty string
A script component
Two conditional splits
Two paths out of one condtional split
I went with the first option, here is the expression I came up with:
I have experienced problem while trying to use variable with expression based on several other variables in tasks running parallel.
The details are as following:
There is a SSIS package with simple Control flow: one Script Task which actually do nothing and two Execute Process Tasks, they run after Script Task in parallel. Then there are three simple (EvaluateAsExpression = False) string variables ServerName, Folder and JobNumber with values ServerName = €œ\test€?, Folder = €œtest€? and JobNumber = €œ12345€?. And there is one variable FullPath with expression @[User:: ServerName] + "\" + @[User::Folder] + "_" + @[User::JobNumber]. All the variables are of the Package scope. Then in Execute Process Tasks I have similar expressions based on FullPath variable: Execute Process Task 1 has expression @[User::FullPath] + "\date.bat" and Execute Process Task 2 has @[User::FullPath] + "\time.bat" one. As you understand these expressions define what exactly task should execute.
Then I€™m going to execute package from command line so appropriate XML configuration file has been created. The file contains following values for variables described above: ServerName = €œ\LiveServer€?, Folder = €œJob€? and JobNumber = €œ33091€?.
After series of consequent executions I have got following log file:
€¦ Execute Process Task 1€¦ Executing the process €œ\LiveServerJob_33091date.bat€?
€¦ Execute Process Task 2€¦ Executing the process €œ\Test est_12345 ime.bat€?
€¦ Execute Process Task 1€¦ Executing the process €œ\Test est_12345date.bat€?
€¦ Execute Process Task 2€¦ Executing the process €œ\LiveServerJob_33091 ime.bat€?
€¦ Execute Process Task 1€¦ Executing the process €œ\LiveServerJob_33091date.bat€?
€¦ Execute Process Task 2€¦ Executing the process €œ\Test est_12345 ime.bat€?
€¦ Execute Process Task 1€¦ Executing the process €œ\LiveServerJob_33091date.bat€?
€¦ Execute Process Task 2€¦ Executing the process €œ\LiveServerJob_33091 ime.bat€?
€¦
As you can see one of Execute Process Tasks usually receive correct value of the expression (based on values of variables from the configuration file) while another - incorrect one (based on €œdefault€? values of variables set directly in package). Sometimes wrong value appears in Task 1, next time in Task 2. Situations when both expressions in tasks evaluated correctly are very rare.
Then if you add some more Execute Process Tasks with similar expressions in the package (for ex. simply by copying existing tasks) you€™ll get a good chance to catch error like this:
OnError,,,Execute Process Task 1,,,8/17/2007 2:07:12 PM,8/17/2007 2:07:12 PM,-1073450774,0x,Reading the variable "User::FullPath" failed with error code 0xC0047084.
OnError,,,Execute Process Task 1,,,8/17/2007 2:07:12 PM,8/17/2007 2:07:12 PM,-1073647613,0x,The expression "@[User::FullPath] + "\time.bat"" on property "Executable" cannot be evaluated. Modify the expression to be valid.
Seems variable with expression FullPath is locked during evaluation by one of the parallel tasks in such a way that another task can€™t read it value correctly. Can someone help me with the issue? Maybe there are some options I missed which could prevent such behavior of application? Please let me know how I can make the package work correctly.
When I call ExecuteResultSet(SqlServerCe.ResultSetOptions.Scrollable) I am getting the following error when the data type is Numeric(18, 4): Expression evaluation caused an overflow. [ Name of function (if known) = ]
The numbers involved are not that big and work fine when ExecuteReader() or ExecuteResultSet(SqlServerCe.ResultSetOptions.None) are called on the same SQL.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
Cheers, Dave

i have installed windows 2008 evaluation, during installation i was not asked for username and pssword but when i try and start up its asking for administrator password.
Is there a switch I can use to force a bulk insert and if data is truncated, I'm good with that. The truncated data, in this case, is not data I can use anyway if it is long enough to be truncated.
I need to keep the field at VARCHAR(23) and if I expand it, I won't be able to join on it after the file load completes. I'd like the data to be inserted (truncated if need be) and then I'll deal with the records that are truncated after I load the file.
I need to export some data from sql server 2012 to a excel file(.xlsx). Truncation error happened when executing the exporting task, error happened in conversion from a column of type nvarchar(max) to a column of type LongText. Max length of the source column data is 4303, and documented length limit of LongText, which is a alias of type Memo, is 64,000. why this error happen?
Below is detailed error message:

I have a data file that has numeric data that looks like:
1.123456
And this column is defined as a DT_NUMERIC(18.6) in the flat file conn mgr.
As an experiment, I changed the destination column to a NUMERIC(18,0) - hoping that this would throw a truncation error at the flat file task level (where I have Truncation on all columns set to "fail component").
Not a peep. It loaded the data into the table, chopping off the 6 digits after the decimal point.
You would THINK that this would cause an error, but no. Why is this? The flat file task complains about all kinds of things, but this is such a gross error, you would think it would catch it!
Since a couple days, we are getting this message the errorlog of one of our SQL2012 server
LogEntry: Error [36, 17, 145] occurred while attempting to drop allocation unit ID 451879652360192 belonging to worktable with partition ID 451879652360192. (version Microsoft SQL Server 2012 - 11.0.5058.0 (X64))
I am wondering what is the best way trying to troubleshoot this issues? I do not know from which of out database this is coming.
I have created a variable in a SQL Task and assigned it to a string variable. When I debug the container with a breakpoint, I can see the correct date value being assigned to the variable.
I have an ADO Net source setup to an Oracle connection. I need to pull the Oracle data down that has an updated date greater than the updated date in my ODS.
My issue is that the variable is not being passed through to my expression that I use for an ADO Net source.
"SELECT * FROM BI_EDW.GL_JE_HEADERS WHERE LAST_UPDATE_DATE > To_Date('" + (DT_WSTR, 19) @[User::varLastUpdateDate] + "','yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss')"
I have been using SSIS for a while now, originally in SQL 2008 but more lately SQL 2012.
I discovered the GETDATE() function in SSIS so I thought I would use this in a variable expression in a Master/Driver package with the child parameters mapped to this variable. A big mistake. The value is not persisted, it gets updated each time the variable is read, so it's back to setting the variable value using a script task in the Master/Driver package.
I am getting error [[Msg 116, Level 16, State 1, Line 7 .Only one expression can be specified in the select list when the subquery is not introduced with EXISTS.]] for the below script.
I have a multi-tenant database where each row and each table has a 'TenantId' column. I have created a view which has joins on a CTE. The issue I'm having is that entity framework will do a SELECT * FROM MyView WHERE TenantId = 50 to limit the result set to the correct tenant. However it does not limit the CTE to the same TenantId so that result set is massive and makes my view extremely slow. In the included example you can see with the commented line what I need to filter on in the CTE but I am not sure how to get the sql plan executor to understand this or weather it's even possible.I have included a simplified view definition to demonstrate the issue...
ALTER VIEW MyView AS WITH ContactCTE AS( SELECT Col1, Col2, TenantId
I have a simple SP that returns 2 columns with 4 inner joins, results are about 100 odd rows max, nothing complicated. When I run the SP via SSMS it works fine, as soon as this is run via an application server the SP fails to complete with the error :
Internal error: An expression services limit has been reached. Please look for potentially complex expressions in your query, and try to simplify them.
We are not getting anywhere near the expression limit so I cannot understand why we are suddenly receiving this error. 2 weeks ago this query was running fine, no updates have been rolled out to the SQL database servers or application servers but the error is suddenly appearing on both prod and dev environments.
SQL 2012 SSIS package.I have a package connection that has the initialcatalog set in the connection string/properties page. This package connection also has an expression defined to set the initial catalog at runtime according to a passed in parameter. It works fine.
I am trying to create a second package in this same manner, but the connection does not seem to want to keep both the hardcoded initialcatalog and the expression to set it dynamically.
I can hardcode the initcatalog just fine, when when I add the expression to set it dynamically later, it clears out the initialcatalog I added.
What am I missing, why was I able to do this in the other package? I compared as much as I can think of between the two packages, all seems similar.
We are using SSRS 2012. We have a report that conditionally formats a background color for some cells. The report renders properly in a browser and in Excel 2003 format. In Excel format all cells after the first one that meets the condition are highlighted, even if only one cell should.
The sample expression that triggers this condition looks like this: =IIF(Fields!VIOL_NOTE.Value="Internal","Green","No Color")
All cells after the first one that meets the condition Fields!VIOL_NOTE.Value="Internal" have a green background.

I have created 1 report with 2 datasets. This report is attached to the 1st dataset.For example,1st one is "Smallappliances", 2nd is "Largeappliances".
I created a tablix and, the 1st column extracts Total sales per Sales person between 2 dates from 1st dataset (Small appliances). I used running values expression and it works fine.
Now, I would like to add another column that extracts Total sales per sales person between 2 dates from 2nd dataset (Large appliances). I am aware that I need to use Lookup expression and it is giving me the single sales value rather than the total sales values. So, I wanted to use RunningValue expression within lookup table to get total sales for large appliances.
This is the lookup expression that I added for the 2nd column.
I get this error when I preview the report.An error occurred during local report processing.The definition of the report is invalid.An unexpected error occurred in report processing.
If you are running in Full Recovery Mode and do a full backup every night but never do a backup of the log during the day does the log file ever truncate? From what I read this should be in Simple Recovery Mode but I'm wondering what happens in the case that I mention in the first sentence. Thanks.
Hello Everyone and thanks for your help in advance. I am working on importing a flat text file into SQL Server 2005 and am having problems. The flat file is a CSV text file with " being used as a text qualifier. Each line is broken by a CrLf combination. When I try importing this file into a SQL Server 2000 table using the same datatypes and sizes for each column, it works perfectly fine with the data importing as expected. However, in SQL Server 2005, again using the identical column datatypes and sizes, the import fails giving me warnings such as: * Warning 0x802092a7: Data Flow Task: Truncation may occur due to inserting data from data flow column "Column 0" with a length of 50 to database column "MLS_ID" with a length of 10. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard) Virtually every columns gives this type of warning, yet I don't understand why since the columns are all variable in length (every message says a column length of 50) and all are delimited rather than fixed size. Then later in the import, errors occur something like: * Error 0xc02020a1: Data Flow Task: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "Column 15" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.". (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard) * Error 0xc020902a: Data Flow Task: The "output column "Column 15" (70)" failed because truncation occurred, and the truncation row disposition on "output column "Column 15" (70)" specifies failure on truncation. A truncation error occurred on the specified object of the specified component. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard) I haven't got a clue as to why this is happening. For the record, on the flat file source screen, I have ensured that delimited has been selected rather than fixed width. Any help on this issue owuld be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Could someone please let me know what are the exact steps to follow to truncate the transaction log files? As these log files grow very fast and there seems to be no space in the drive.
Currently am using the below steps to truncate the log file: Step1:Use the below syntax: backup log <database name> with no_log Step2:shrink the log file. Right click the correct database and choose shrink file ->chosse the log -> ok
I would be grateful if someone can give me a proper solution.
Hello All,I am attempting a bulk load of fixed position flat file data via bcpand I have noticed that I get a Right Truncation error when trying toload a row where the last column value is NULL.For example:Flat file row:0000016MFMT file:7.031 SQLCHAR 0 7 "" 1 RECORD_KEY2 SQLCHAR 0 1 "" 2 SEX3 SQLCHAR 0 1 " " 3 HEIGHTIn this row, the height info is null and I get a right truncationerror. The row below, with height info goes in fine:Flat file row:0000016M510Let me know what I am doing wrong!Thanks in advance
How is it possible to avoid truncation errors in MS SQL? For example,if I run the followingdeclare @a as decimal(38,8)declare @b as decimal(38,8)declare @c as decimal(38,8)set @a = 30.0set @b = 350.0set @c = @a/@bselect @cset @c = @c*@bselect @cI get 29.99990000 instead of 30.0. Is there a way around this?ThanksBruno
Hi,I'm trying to upload a large number of log entries currently stored astext files into a database table using bcp. For a few rows I get a"right truncation" error and the offending rows are not uploaded to thetable.I don't want to increase the size of the table varchar fields becauseit's only about a dozen out of almost million rows that have thisproblem ... I want to provide an override - i.e. if a row will resultin truncated data, truncate but still bulk copy the offending row. Isthat possible?I couldn't find such an option in the documentation.Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks,Mudassir Latif
Hello,I am attempting to write a stored procedure that builds and executes adynamic SQL statement which can be up to 8000 characters long.Therefore, I have declared a variable of type varchar(8000) which,according to the documentation, is the maximum acceptable length ofsuch a variable. Unfortunately, however, SQL Server seems allowvarchars to only be half this size: the resulting string keepingsgetting truncated to 4000 characters as reported by the len function.Is there setting somewhere that would fix this behavior or somework-around that I can employ that would allow me to execute a dynamicsql statement that is longer than 4000 characters?(note: I am not using the sp_executesql proc as it maxes out at 4000; Iam simply calling EXEC which, according to the docs, should be fine)Thank You.
We use SQL Server 2005 x64 Enterprise and I have created a SSIS routine to replace a legacy DTS routine that reads from a Data Reader Source and writes to a SQL Server 2005 database. The field I am receiving the truncation error on is "Description" and it is set as nvarchar(50), which it always has been, and the old DTS routine works fine on it. I checked the contents of description and the maximum number of characters in any row is 28. I have tried changing it to nvarchar(max), nvarchar(4000) and ntext but it still fails with a truncation error. Any leads on how I may solve this issue?
