SSIS : ErrorCode OnInformation EventHandler
Feb 18, 2008
Hello,
Within my SSIS packages I use a logging logic quite similar as the one described by Jamie Thomson here : http://blogs.conchango.com/jamiethomson/archive/2005/06/11/SSIS_3A00_-Custom-Logging-Using-Event-Handlers.aspx
But I still have a small "problem". When my package end with success the ErrorCode returned at the OnInformation event handler level is :
0x4001100B
1073811467
DTS_I_COMMITTINGTRANSACTION
Committing distributed transaction started by this container.
Instead of :
0x40013001
1073819649
DTS_MSG_PACKAGESUCCESS
Package "__" finished successfully.
Another example.
When there's an integrity constraint violation, I've got the following ErrorCode returned :
0xC0047021
-1073450975
DTS_E_THREADFAILED
Thread "__" has exited with error code __.
Instead of :
0xC020907D
-1071607683
DTS_E_OLEDBDESTINATIONADAPTERSTATIC_INTEGRITYVIOLATION
The data value violates integrity constraints.
Anyone has a clue ?
Thanks a lot by advance.
Cheers,
Bertrand

Hi everyone,
I'd like to alter OnInformation event in order to add more parameters (as TaskHost). Is it possible? I've tried but appears an error:
OnInformation' cannot to implement OnInformation' because of it doesn't exists on the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.IDTSEvents'
Sub OnInformation(ByVal taskHost As TaskHost, ByVal [source] As DtsObject, ByVal informationCode As Integer, ByVal subComponent As String, ByVal description As String, ByVal helpFile As String, ByVal helpContext As Integer, ByVal idofInterfaceWithError As String, ByRef fireAgain As Boolean) Implements IDTSEvents.OnInformation
I suppose that I must add an overload method but how?
Thanks for you help/advices,
Enric

I'm trying to log the information spit out by SSIS but only the rowcount part, e.g. "component xyz wrote 1000 rows", im currently using a execute sql task but that will log all information, any simple efficient way i can filter out that rows written line and log that into a sql server table?
thanks

In my SSIS package (which was created programatically) when I try to log details in OnInformation event I get all the entries twice. One with the source name as the taskhost.name property and another with a guid. I'm not able to figure out which component raises the event. Infact for all the events the sourcename comes as GUID.
So I thought I'll override the events by inheriting IDTSEvents or DefaultEvents, But I'm not sure how to proceed further so that I can pass the sourcename properly instead of GUID.
Code BlockIDTSLogging.Log(string eventName, string computerName, string operatorName, string sourceName, string sourceGuid, string executionGuid, string messageText, DateTime startTime, DateTime endTime, int dataCode, ref byte[] dataBytes)
Thanks

When a user finally confirms his order in a shopping cart application (using MS-Access as the backend), the items he has purchased are populated in a Access DB table named Orders & his personal details (like name, mail, billing address, shipping address etc.) are populated in another table named CustDetails. Both the DB tables have a column named OrderID. This column is the Primary Key in the CustDetails table & the Foreign Key in the Orders table. The Session.SessionID becomes the unique OrderID.After confirming an order, if the user refreshes the page, the app will try to populate the same Session.SessionID in the CustDetails table but since the column OrderID is a Primary Key column in the table CustDetails, it won't accept duplicate OrderIDs. Under such circumstances, an OleDbException will be raised.Since a DB app can throw other OleDbExceptions other than the one about which I mentioned above, I want to display custom error messages to the user. For e.g. if he refreshes the page after confirming his order, I want to display a message saying "Your order has already been placed".To do this, I tried using the ErrorCode property of the OleDbException class but what I found is the ErrorCode changes from time to time! Had a particular ErrorCode been assigned to the error, I could have done something like this (assuming that the ErrorCode for the above error is -12345 which is constant):Try 'some codeCatch ex As OleDbException If (ex.ErrorCode = -12345) Then Response.Write("Your order has already been placed") ElseIf (ex.ErrorCode = <some other constant ErrorCode>) Then Response.Write("Another custom error message") End IfEnd TryBut I can't do the above since the ErrorCode changes from time to time.So how do I display custom error messages to users under such circumstances?Of course, I can use the Message property of the OleDbException class but that would be a rather tedious workaround.

This is a request to the Microsoft SSIS staff.
I did a search for the keywords in the description and can already see a lot of people frustrated about this.
A lot of well designed integration packages will route error messages to an error table or file.
SSIS appends a couple of extra error columns called ErrorCode and ErrorColumn. At runtime, an extra
column is visible in the DataViewer called ErrorCode - Description.
The description is hardcoded into the dtsmsg.h file in the SDK folder of Sql Server.
This file is very hard to parse.
Can some from SSIS please post an XML or CSV file with all the error codes and descriptions for us to download please.
This will be such a big help in debugging.
Many Thanks.

SSIS automatically adds the columns ErrorCode and ErrorColumn to the error pipe routing bad rows. However, both these columns appear to be meaningless. We need to translate the error column to the actual problem column and the error code to a meaningful error. ErrorColumn is the more important issue for us. The question is 'Are these just useless columns? If not, how do we translate them into something useful?'
Thanks

Hi again!
I have another problem, this time with a flatfile source component. The file is pretty simple organized and in fact everything works as expected.
The file itself comes from an FTP server, so it is not available at designtime. For setting up the flatfile source i downloaded it, but afterwards i delete it, set 'dalayvalidation' to true and try to execute.
FTP download works fine, the file is there but then i get the errormessage:
Copier ErrorCodes [586]: The data type for "output column "Flat File Source Error Output Column" (610)" is DT_NTEXT, which is not supported with ANSI files. Use DT_TEXT instead and convert the data to DT_NTEXT using the data conversion component.
When i try to set the datatype of the Error Output Column (610) to DT_NEXT i only get an errormessage telling me that this would not be a valid value for this property.
The only chance i have to get it working again is to completely delete the flatfile-source, readd and setup it again, then everything works... but only until i remove the files and try to download them via FTP. It's strange :-( and annoying.
Anyone any idea?
kind regards,
Wolfgang

I have an OLE-DB Command transformation that inserts a row. If the insert SQL command fails for some reason, I use the "Redirect Row" option to send the row to another OLE-DB Command transformation that logs the error on that row to a "failed rows" table. In this table I log the ErrorCode and ErrorColumn values that come with the error path from the first OLE-DB Command.
OK, that's all working great. However, here's the kicker: there's no error description value. The ErrorCode value, naturally, is the decimal form of an HRESULT--for example, -1071607696. Without some further information, however, this code is not useful for troubleshooting.
Has anyone figured out a trick here? I'm not even certain that this is an SSIS HRESULT, since it could for all I know be from the OLE-DB layer, the database layer, or somewhere else.
Thanks,
Dan

I am currently redirecting lookup failures into error tables with ErrorCode and ErrorColumn. It works fine until I want to transfer data into the archived database. The SSIS pacakage generate by SQL Exporting tool is throwing an "duplicate name of 'output column ErrorCode and ErrorColumn" error. This is caused by oledb source error output. The error output automatically add ErrorCode and ErrorColumn to the error output selection and not happy with it.
I think the question is down to "How to importing/exporting data when table contains ErrorCode or ErrorColumn column?"

I'm sorry for asking this, as I'm sure tha the answer is in one of the 208 matches I found searching on "ErrorCode". Unfortunately, this project is overdue and I need a solution fairly soon.
I should add that I've only been developing in SSIS since August 2007.
I have a complicated package, loading about 17 outputs of the XML Source into staging tables. I have been using the error outputs of any standard components I use, out of faith that, if Microsoft provided them, then they should be useful for something. I've been directing all of the error outputs for one of the 17 "tables" from the XML Source into a Union All, and then into an "Error staging table", for each of the 17 outputs. This table includes all of the possible columns, but permits nulls for all of them. It also incldues the ErrorCode and ErrorColumn.
Unfortunately, if these latter two are useful for anyting, I haven't found it yet.
Right now, working with our first "mostly real" data, I'm getting 100% of my input rows written into error tables. Unfortunately, the information in the tables are of limited use in determining what went wrong. For instance, the ErrorColumn seems only to be populated if there was a specific error with a specific column. The Lookup component, doesn't seem to populate ErrorColumn, even if only one column was used for the lookup! No information about the component producing the error output is supplied in the error output, either, which makes it difficult to determine which of the five or so possible error outputs is the one that produced the particular error row.
This proves that I'm missing something simple. How do people handle errors? In my custom components, I learned to use the Fire* methods to produce detailed messages before redirecting the row to the error output, but this sort of thing is not available through the standard components.
Do I really have to create a separate "add useful information to the error output" component, and use it on each error output?
Sorry for the attitude, but just when I think I'm winning, SSIS brings me back down to earth!

I want to achieve the following in (SSIS/SSDT for SQL 2012) -Â
I have a generic SSIS package which simply sends out email notifications using SMTP email task (this package is within its own project, and has project level input parameters).
I need to be able to call this package in the Event handler section of every package (numbering in about less than 60) that we have. These packages are within their own respective projects.
I thought I could use the "execute package task", but it turns out , using this, I cannot call a package that is part of some other project. I also cannot call a package that is stored in the CATALOG. Is there any way I can do this ?
When I call the child package , I should be able to send in parameters like - error information and package name of the Parent package.

I have an SSIS package (TransAgentMaster) that I recently modified to include a call to a child package via the file system. The child package creates a text file. When I run the package in dev studio then the child package/text file is produced.
I then imported the TransAgentMaster as a stored packagesfilesystem package into SQL SSIS and executed the package. The child package produced the text file.
I then ran the SQL Server Agent to see if the child package would work and it did not generate the text file. Thus after updating a SSIS package importing the package into SSIS the job that calls the package will not call the child package. Please not that the TransAgentMaster package calls 7 children packages €¦ just not my new one.
Any thoughts why the agent will not run the child newly crated childe package?

Hi,
I'm finding that the standard components often just don't quite meet my
needs, but would only need some fairly minor changes to save me and my team a lot of
work (and produce more elegant solutions). So I was just wondering whether the source code was available for the standard components that come with SSIS, or if there is anyway to extend their functionality?
Or do you just have to start form scratch?
Thanks,
Lawrie

I need to build an asp.net/C# application to read values from an Excel spreadsheet. Once the values are read from the spreadsheet, the C# code will do some elementary statistics on the values read. Then the values read and their computations will be written to a sql server database.
My manager suggested that SSIS might be a good candidate technology for doing this type of work. Does that sound correct? My only hesitation with using SSIS is that I want to keep the application as simple as possible, so that the code can be more portable. Maybe might argument is not a good one, but maybe someone can help me out here.

Dear Friends,
I store several configurations in the main database of my SSIS packages. I need to get the servername from a xml or txt file in order to get those configurations stored in my database.
How you think is the better way to do that?
Using a FlatFileSource to read the file and a script to save the value into a SSIS variable?
Using the package configuration I cant do that... maybe I dont know, but I can save the SSIS variale in the configuration file, but what I need is to do the inverse, read the configuration file and save the value in the SSIS variable.
How the best way you suggest?!
Regards!!
Thanks.

Hi Gurus,
I am new to SSIS. I am trying to install just the SSIS in one machine("SSIS Machine") and just the DB Engine ("SQL Server Machine") in another machine. What I am trying to do is, separating the SSIS service and packages from the Database Engine and trying to run in in another machine. I have few questions on this topic. I searched on this forum but I couldn't find a concrete answer to those questions. Forgive me if it already answered/asked multiple times.
1. When I install SSIS in "SSIS Machine", do I need to install client components also in the same machine?
2. I already established this setup (SSIS with client components in one machine and SQL Server in another) but when I tried to connect to the SSIS thro' Management Studio from Sql Server machine, I keep getting "Access Denied" error. Is it possible to connect to SSIS server from another machine (using Management studio)? I tried the DCOM security permission options I found in the internet(I don't have domain id so I gave "Everyone" full access) but still I get the same error. Any help would be appriciated.
3. Do I need 2 SQL Server Licenses (Enterprise) if I go with this environment?
4. Is it possible to configure SQL Job to run SSIS installed in another machine?
I would appriciate any help on this issue.
Thanks

Hello everyone!!
I am completely new to SSIS and have been given a large project (of course with a tight deadline) that has the absolute requirement of using SSIS. I am/was very, very good with DTS and could easily accomplish what I need to do with an ActiveX script task in DTS in no time, but as this is new development, we are not to use ActiveX script tasks within SSIS since it will not be supported in the next SQL Server release. I'm thinking script task, but please give some comments on how you would accomplish the following in SSIS (please remember I'm new to SSIS, so don't assume I know anything. )
I must accomplish this: in a nutshell, I need to create separate tab delimited text files of customer informaion. One for each region. Each region consists of X amount of states and we have X amount of regions. (Pseudo code followed by standard explanation)
Select a max value from region lookup table in SQL (this is the # of regions)
for N=1 to MyMaxValue
select states from region lookup table where region code = N (the current region we are on)
'this returns a list of states in a region, need these in array or recordset object or something
Open an output file which will be a tab delimited text file we will write results below in loop to (in DTS I would programatically kick off a transformation task in the package)
'loop thru states returned, so if in a rs object...
do while not rs.eof
execute customer stored procedure, passing as a variable the current state we are on
'this will return all customers within a state, this whole result set (approx 1 million) needs to go to the tab delimited file
'I have to execute this stored procedure for each state & then write results to the SAME file, until we are onto a different region
rs.movenext
close file
loop
next
OK, so basically, as you can see, Its sort of simple in a way what I need to do, i just have no idea how to go about doing this in SSIS. I can not hard code any state or region values. I MUST read them in from the lookup tables as region codes are constanatly changing and we are constantly adding in new states and new regions, so with above coding idea, it would always dynamically pick up any new states, new regions or changes.
So in a nutshell, I need to create separate tab delimited text files of customer informaion. One for each region. Each region consists of X amount of states and there are X amount of regions. Pretty strait forward, huh? The requirements are strait forward, but SSIS is throwing me for a loop... it does not seem flexible enough to be as dynamic as I need it to be to do this. I'm sure it is, just my understanding of it is very basic so far.
Please provide your suggestions! I think a lot of newbies would benefit from some SSIS design info... how to do common things in SSIS, but beyond just retrieving a recordset and writing it to a file... what do you do when you need to add just a few layers of decision processing, and retriving recordsets and writing files based on that decision processing?????
THANK YOU!!!!!!
