SSIS - Event Handlers - Logging
Apr 24, 2015
I am currently working to write a progress log for my SSIS packages. So far I am able write a new log entry, update this log entry using OnProgress and OnError Event Handlers. I'd like to take it one step further. Whenever the package ends whether cancelled or finished normally; I'd like to write to my logging table COMPLETED_ABNORMALLY on cancelled or COMPLETED_NORMALLY on a normal finish of the package. I'm not sure where to begin with this process. I'd like to utilize a simple method and event handler.

I have an SSIS Package that loads data to a SQL Server table and also logs package statistics along the way with individual SQL statements. In the event of failure, I want the data loaded to the target table rolled back but I want the statistics updates saved to the database. My package consists of several Execute SQL tasks that handle the logging and a Data Flow task that loads the data to the target table along with a couple of event handlers to handle errors. I have the Transaction Option property on the Package set to Required, to Supported on the Data Flow, and to Not Supported on the Execute SQL tasks and the OnError Event Handlers.
When we run the package (and cause an error) everything runs fine until it gets to the On Error event handler for the Data Flow task. This task hangs and never finishes. If we set the Transaction Option for the Event Handler to Supported (allowing it to enlist in the parent transaction) it works but the updates that it makes roll back along with the data from the Data Flow.
Is there a problem with having Event Handlers stay out of a transaction started by the parent package?
Any help would be appreciated.

I would like to create an event handler that would catch any errors that result from a sys.<table> not existing. The package is designed to run on both SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 and when I query sys.<tables> there is an error when the query is run on SQL Server 2000. I just need a good starting point...I would like something that when the server isn't 2005 it just skips the server and doesn't fail the package and doesn't get counted towards the max error count. Thanks for any help.

When running SSIS packages, the package execution information is logged in the SYSDTSLOG90 table which contains the following columns.
id
event
computer
operator
source
sourceid
executionid
starttime
endtime
datacode
databytes
message
After executing a package, I found that the values in the "executionid" column are the only ones that are unique. Can we use this to determine what package was run? We are trying to architect a solution that would allow us to determine as to how long a package ran, if it ran into warnings / errors etc., We can easily accomplish this by having our own table and using Global variables within packages, we could insert / update this table. Appreciate any help.

I have created a package which has event handlers.
After the end of every data flow task I have a event handler on the data flow post execute which updates a column in the
database. When I execute the package from Visual Studio everything works well. But when I call the package from
.NET I am able to carry out the data flow task, but the event handler does not execute and it does not update the column
in the database. Can anyone tell me why?
Thanks

hello everyone
I'd like to know if there is a way to catch the error messages when a tasks fails, that's because i's like to store every message on a user variable, so i could log all of them later, I was thinking that it may be possible with the event handlers, could it be?

Hi,
We are currently facing an issue in ensuring restartability of an SSIS package. The scenario is explained below.
Context:
The SSIS Package has two Data Flow tasks. The Data Flow task named DFT1 is the predecessor for DFT2 and chained with OnSuccess precedence constraint.
OnPreExecute and OnPostExecute event handlers have been implemented for DFT1. Each task in both event handlers as well as DFT1 and DFT2 have FailPackageOnFailure set to True.
Scenario1: Task in OnPreExecute of DFT1 fails.
DFT1 is attempted and succeeded.
OnPostExecute of DFT1 was not attempted.
DFT2 was not attempted.
Checkpoint file was created; however, no entries were made.
When restarted, execution started from first step in Control flow.
Scenario2: Task in OnPostExecute of DFT1 fails.
DFT1 and its OnPreExecute Event were executed.
DFT2 was not attempted.
Checkpoint file was created and entries were made. Entries had DTS:result as 0 for OnPreExecute and DFT1 tasks.
When restarted, DFT2 was executed. OnPostExecute event, which failed during previous execution, was not attempted.
Each task in the package, whether it is in Control flow or as part of an event handler is crucial for seamless execution. But apparently, as explained above, there is no reliability on the event handlers in case of failures. Has anyone encountered similar scenario? Is this behavior as per design of the runtime engine?
Thanks, in advance,
Regards,
Rajesh

Greetings,
I am developing a package on my local workstation. I have defined two logging service providers. One is for SQL Server and the other is for the Windows Event Log. I am using the Dts.Log method in a script task to write log entries.
Logging is working properly with the SQL Server provider and rows are being inserted into the sysdtslog90 table. However, the only events that are being logged in the Windows Event Log are the package start and end events which I believe SSIS is doing automatically anyway.
Is there something I need to do to enable WIndows Event Log logging other than defining a log provider and making sure it is checked active? Won't SSIS write to two different logs with one Dts.Log call? Any ideas on what might be going wrong with my approach?
Thanks,
BCB

Hi,
I decided to use the SQL Server log provider to store logging data of all my Integration Services packages. I also created some reports about this data for operating purposes.
I have a problem occurs the name of the executing package is not always written to the log,but the name of the single task which failed. But that is not very useful information for operating, because I do not see any chance to get the name of the package by the information which is logged in the sysdtslog90 table in the database which I defined for SSIS Logging.
How do I configure the package to always log the package information into the table, too?
Best regards,
Stefoon

Hi
We are generating log file in our SSIS package by enabling the built-in feature of SSIS tool. We are generating log for the "OnError" event. This also recorded the error/failed task messages in the text file "log.txt". That error information is too complex with more unwanted information like below
----------------OnError,,,pkgExtract,,,8/30/2006 11:50:04 AM,8/30/2006 11:50:04 AM,-1071636471,0x,An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E21 Description: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".
OnError,,,pkgExtract,,,8/30/2006 11:50:04 AM,8/30/2006 11:50:04 AM,-1071607780,0x,There was an error with input column "create_user_id" (116) on input "OLE DB Destination Input" (103). The column status returned was: "The value violated the integrity constraints for the column.".
OnError,,,pkgExtract,,,8/30/2006 11:50:04 AM,8/30/2006 11:50:04 AM,-1071607767,0x,The "input "OLE DB Destination Input" (103)" failed because error code 0xC020907D occurred, and the error row disposition on "input "OLE DB Destination Input" (103)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
---------------------------------
This is infact not in a better readable format. We also don't want to do our error logging in database.
Is there any way of defining our error log and create error error log with customization of our messages . Can we do it using OnError event handler.
Please help us with some good solution to avoid giving this confused error log messages.
Thanks

When using Dtexec to run a package, is there a way to prevent/suppress the windows event log information messages:
- Package "Xyz" started.
- Package "Xyz" finished successfully.

I'm trying to implement a custom log table. To keep the discussion simple, let's say I only have 1 column in this table and all I want to write in it are
"Start" when the package starts
"Error" when it encounters an error
"Finish" when the package finishes. Even if there was an error, I still want to enter "Finish'.
My Control Flow has 3 task objects, 2 Execute SQL Tasks, and 1 Data Flow Task in between them.
The first Execute SQL Task does an insert statement for the Start and the second Execute SQL Task does an insert for the Finish.
To capture any package errors, I also have an Execute SQL Task (to insert "Error") in the Event Handler for OnError. I see that when I cause an error in my package it can raise multiple OnError events, which will envoke my Execute SQL Task multiple times. (This is good because it will allow me to write a line per error event with the error description.)
The problem I have is, how do I write the "Finish" log when I have an error? If I put the insert for the finish in the same Execute SQL Task with the errors, then it will write a "Finish" for every error. But I can't put it anywhere else because if I put it anywhere else, the package never makes it there because it stops at the OnError Event Handler.
Or is there a way for me to tell the package to do the 2nd Execute SQL Task all the time?
Lastly, is there a better way to do this kind of custom logging?

We are starting to work with SSIS in our production environment & due to support issues; we are trying to get rid of the "Package xxx started" log entries inside of the Windows Application Event Log...
So far, I have tried many different things, including setting the LoggingMode to "Disabled", as well as adding a new logging reference with a different destination... All of which still do not get rid of the extra log entries...
how to get this done?

In my console application code which creates and executes SSIS package I have this code.
Code Block
provider.ConfigString = loggingConnection.Name;
package.LoggingOptions.SelectedLogProviders.Add(provider);
package.LoggingOptions.EventFilterKind = DTSEventFilterKind.Inclusion;
package.LoggingOptions.EventFilter = new string[] { "OnPipelineRowsSent","PackageEnd" };
package.LoggingMode = DTSLoggingMode.Enabled;
I use a custom log component to log the events. However the "PackageEnd" event does not seem to get fired at all.
Am I missing something in this?
Thanks

I recently read the project real ETL design best practices whitepaper. I too, want to do custom logging as I do today, and also use SSIS logging. The paper recommended using the variable system::PackageExecutionId to tie the 2 logging methods together.

Hi:
Just implemented logging on my package, and the type of logging is to a text file. Any ideas on where should i store my log folder/file, so when I do my build and deploy, I end up moving the folder as well. Do I have to manually do that? How would that work? What if I save the log file outside of my project folder? Where is the log folder/file path specified? Thanks.

I am executing the SSIS package and generating the execution log information in SQL server and text file.
i.e. using the SSIS---->logging and there SSIS log provider for SQL server and SSIS log provider for text file.
Now I want to push the execution information of all the events in SQL server whereas in text file I want to log only the OnError events.
Now I am unable to to select the different set of the events for two log provider (SQL server and text file)
Please suggest how to do this.

Logging in SSIS as compared to DTS is more complex to set up with so many events. What events should I choose if I need something similar to DTS package logging i.e. I simply want to see which tasks executed at what time and whether they failed or succeded and if they failed, what was the error?

Hi,
I have migrated DTS package into SSIS. One of the ActiveX Script contains the following code. I have a question regarding changing this code.
What is the equilaent object of reading LogFileName in SSIS? I setup the Logging in SSIS, but didn't fidn any option using which i can refer to logfile as it is done in the following DTS code.
It'll be a great help if somebody can assist me in this.
Thanks in advance.

Code:
Function Main()
Const ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2, ForAppending = 8
dim fso
dim pkg
dim filename
dim srcfile, logfile
dim inchar
set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set pkg = DTSGlobalVariables.parent
set logfile = fso.OpenTextFile(DTSGlobalVariables.parent.Properties("LogFileName").Value, ForAppending, True)
filename = Pkg.Connections("CARSBalance").Properties("DataSource").Value
If (fso.FileExists(filename)) Then
set srcfile = fso.OpenTextFile(filename, ForAppending)
' Add a blank character to the file.
srcfile.Write " "
srcfile.Close
set srcfile = fso.OpenTextFile(filename, ForReading)
'Read a line from the source file
inchar = srcfile.Readline
If Len(inchar) <= 1 then
'Have to close the file, then open ForWriting
srcfile.Close
logfile.WriteLine ("File is empty: " & filename)
logfile.WriteLine ("Adding dummy record")
set srcfile = fso.OpenTextFile(filename, ForWriting)
srcfile.WriteLine(" ")

Hi,
My job is to create an audit report. I have two tables A and B which is linked through a common field Id.
if Id column of A table doesnot find value for Field1 in B for the corresponding Id then an error should be reported as follows:
"Missing record in B"
if Id column of A finds value for Field1 but Field2 doesnot have value then warning should be generated.
These Errors and warnings should be logged in Audit Report file.
Can any one guide me how to do it?

What all would need to be done in order to capture a time that an SSIS package ran and completed? I have had a thread about this before here: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1310953&SiteID=1
But, I have been busy and have been off and on with this issue. I really need to find some simple way to show in a report using SSRS the "as-of" date when the data was pulled in. Is using the Execute SQL task going to be that method?
Any information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Second time around w/this one. I'm running my sqlserveragent with a domain admin account and everything works well. I then switch to a domain user and the package fails. Windows app log contains ths
Package "Package1" failed.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
So I go to the sql server agent jobs and select the job I'm trying to run. I then go to Job Step Properties and under the logging tab choose SSIS log provider for Text files. What is supposed to go in the Configuration String?
It will let me type a text file in there or choose from one of my "3" datasources in my package. But since I'm developing this on another machine the choice to log to the file system makes no sense.
Please do not refer me to the kb article (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=918760) I've read and re-read that. All that I want to do is find out why the package is failing.
Thanks.

Hello Everyone,
I have written a custom task which writes the details of an error in the windows event log.
I use the on error event to invoke this task.
To simulate the error I try to convert a string into a number. I see that there are multiple as many as 6 messges with different error codes being logged into the windows event log.
They vary from something tangible like number conversion failed to obsure things like thread was being aborted.
Is this normal? to see multiple messages for one type of error.
Can I control this, so that only one message is sent into the windows event log.
(reason is that we have a monitoring software which may raise multiple admin alerts for the same issue).
Thanks for your help in advance.
regards,
Abhishek.

I'm trying to use the information logged by SSIS packages into the database (the sysdtslog90 table) to track errors. Unfortunately, when the errors are written to the log they are associated with a source and sourceid and not the package and package ID. Sometimes the source is the package, but often it is a process within the package. All I need is some way to associate each error with a package--a package name/ID on each row in the log. This seems like it ought to be a pretty basic need, but I can't figure it out.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

I am having a problem where duplicate log statements are being written to a log file (as defined by a log provider).
I believe that this is because in the logging dialog box, I have ticked the checkbox next to a child task to override the logging functionality.
I need to do this because it is a script task and I want to capture "ScriptTaskLogEntry" events (something that I cannot do at the parent level).
However by doing this I seem to get the script events written at the parent, as well as at the Script Task level.
Is there any way of avoiding this, but still capturing the log events from the script task?
Another issue that is possibly linked is that I am getting an error from the log provider:
The SSIS logging provider "SSIS log provider for Text files" failed with error code 0x800700EA ((null)). This indicates a logging error attributable to the specified log provider.
Could this be because of the parent and child task are both attempting to write to the same log provider?
Thanks in advance

Hi. I've tried several things to log some information inside of the ScriptTask. I've tried Console.WriteLine(), Debug.WriteLine(), and Dts.Log().
All compile and work, but my problem is I can't find the output to save my life.
I have logging turned on in my SSIS package, but the data doesn't show up in that file. I've check SQL Server's log. Event Log in OS. All no luck.

I am currently using the SSIS Logging feature in my SSIS package. Currently, I have defined a destination log file, and each time the package is executed the log file gets appended with that days log.
Im trying to figure out how best to keep the log file name static (it gets emailed out, and my email client looks for a particular log file name) yet include only todays log information and append the rest of the log information to a history log file or something like that.
Has anyone tried doing something similar, or have any ideas on how best this can be accomplished?
Thanks
