SSIS - Get ServerName From A XML Or TXT File Into SSIS Package
Jan 4, 2008
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.
Hey, I've a few jobs which call SSIS packages. If I run the SSIS package, it runs fine but if I try to run the job which calls this package, it fails. Can someone help me troubleshoot this issue? None of my jobs that call an SSIS package work. All of them fail.
I am trying to create and later read a data file from a package deployed in SSISDB, but it is not reading it while it is successfully creating the file. The same package when run from the file system package, runs successfully. Generating ispac and deploying in SSISDB is running for infinite time. Is it a permission issue?
I am new to SSIS world, so my question is very basic.
Setup:
In a company I work for we have 12 SQL servers each running between 1 and 3 databases with anywhere between 10 to 20 tables. I need to query some of these tables and merge results to the destination database.
The list of all these tables is stored in the separate table <SOURCES> of the following format [ServerName,DatabaseName,TableName]. Tables of my interest have identical structure (same columns) accross servers and databases.
Question:
How can I loop over servers and databases specified in <SOURCES> to run otherwise identical query against these tables?
I can easily retrieve [ServerName,DatabaseName,TableName] from <SOURCES> as string variables using FOREACH loop. The problem is now - how do I use string variables to set up Server, Database and Table name at run-time?
Ok everybody. I am new to sql. I have ms sql staging database that pulls data from mysql database. Then once a day I run a ssis package that moves the data to a live database and also creates a flat file that is posted to a ftp site then truncates the table. One problem I am running into is if the mssql staging database has no records the flat file is still created. How do I stop it?
I want to unzip a file through "Execute Process Task".
For compressing(zip) a file i write the following.
In Process Tab: In Executable: C:Program FilesWinZipWINZIP32.EXE In Arguments: -min -a "C:file.zip" "C:file.mdb"
What arguments should i write to unzip a file? And in case i want to copy a file from one location to another through Execute Process Task what should i do?
Is there a way to unzip files in a SQL Server 2005 SSIS package. I now I can do it using winzip and executing the procedure, master..xp_cmdshell, but that is not what I am preferring at the moment. Anything direction in this regards will be much appreciated.
I am trying to get a handle on the new SQL Server Integration Services in SQL Server 2005. There is a legacy DTS package that I need to get working on our new server (using SQL Server 2005) but I can't seem to get it to work.First, I migrated it and attempted to run the package. It gave me many errors. So, I thought I would just rebuild it in integrated services. Everything was going smooth until I got to the real data transformation part.I added a data flow task and it took me to the Data Flow tab. Then I added a DataReader Source. I am trying to read from a dBase III file and I assumed I would be using an ODBC driver for that. Well... it has been hell trying to get it to see the dBase III file and access it.I have tried two solutions from the internet.This one and this one (by Wenyang) with no positive results.No matter what I do I still get an error in the bottom of the Advanced Editor for DataReader Source that reads: "Error at Sales Transformation [DataReader Source [81]]: Cannot acquire a managed connection from the run-time connection manager."Has anyone attempted anything like this before? Are there any SSIS experts around here that can drop me a few pearls of wisdom?Thanks in advance... I'm dying here.
I have a bat file that kicks off a master package, which kicks off about 300 child packages. My bat file is working correctly, however there seems to be issues executing packages in 64 bit mode.
So my question is...
Is there a way to specify in the bat file to execute packages in 32 bit mode and not 64 bit?
bat file: "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server110DTSBinnDTExec.exe" /f "E:MasterPackage.dtsx"
I've have a simple question. After running the SSIS deployment utility to install a couple of SSIS packages into a SQL Server, is there a way of determining programmatically (at some later stage) where the dependency files (in my case a simple xml configuration file) for the SSIS packages were installed (if the user chose not to install it into the default location).
I would like to have some key-value pairs set up in the form of a XML file and read the same from within a SSIS package. What I mean is something like business information needs to be configured using XML or INI or something similar. Could anyone help me with a similar sample solutions or give me some links which will lead me to the solution.

I have a ssis package which has 2 tasks, first it builds an excel sheet with data on the server from where I am running the ssis pkg and the second task (a sql process task), runs a bat. the bat file that basically copies the excel sheet created from the first step to another server. Problem is that the ssis pkg runs succesful when i run it from BIDS, bust when I run is as ajon, it gets hung. It completes the first step, it is the sescond step that is get hung. I noticed that when i run from BIDs, it does come up with a window open file - security warning and says the publisher could not be verified, are you sure you want to run this software. why does it do that ??? the file I am asking to run is a .bat file. it should automatically use the cmd.exe app to run the bat file. Please help !!!
I have an SSIS package that has an "execute process task" that executes a batch file. The package has been deployed to the msdb database, and is called from a stored procedure using xp_cmdshell dtexec ...
I can execute the package just fine if I'm logged onto the server as a system administrator, by running the stored procedure from a query window.
However, if I log on to the server as a non-admin user, the package attempts to run, but breaks at the file system task, with "Access Denied". It can't run the batch file. It seems to be a permissions issue at the file system level.
I am not sure if we can execute SSIS package using t-sql, but I want to do the following: Step1. Execute SSIS package1 Step2. Check for the file1.txt in c drive using the below code: Declare @result int exec xp_fileexist 'c:file1.txt', @result output IF (@result = 1) --if file exists exec ssis package begin Execute SSIS package2 end
If we can't use t-sql, please let me know how I can do that as part of sql job. Thanks!!
Trying to figure out the best method of reading in a number of flat files, all with different number of columns and data types and outputting them to a database.
Here's the problem: They are EBCDIC encoded and some of the columns are packed decimal. I've set up one package that takes the flat file, unpacks the decimal (Using UnpackDecimal component) and then sending the rest through a second component to go from EBCDIC -> ASCII.
What I need is a way to do this for every flat file based on the schema for that flat file. One current solution is to write a script/app to create the .dtsx XML file and then execute that for each flat file. It appears like this may be possible, but I haven't gotten far enough to know for sure. So my questions are this:
1) Is there an easier way to do this (ie somehow feed the schema to the package and use it to dynamically set up the column makers and determine which columns get fed to the unpack decimal component.
2) If there isn't a better way, will dynamically creating the .dtsx XML file based on the necessary input/output columns for each flat file work? If so, what is a good source of information on this (information about how the .dtsx XML file is set up, what needs to be changed/what doesn't, etc).
After developing SSIS Package (.dtsx file) if I need to deploy to all environments dynamically, then how can I create .dts config file and mention properties in it ?Â
Hello everybody... I have a very simple SSIS package that loop throught the worksheets of an Excel file and insert the data into a SQL server 2005 table.
The SSIS is very simple and works fine the problem is that after the Package executes if I double click on the Excel file imported I have the message that the file is in use.
I think that the Excel connection manager of the package doesn't release the Excel resourse but this is only a guess..
Do am I right? If yes how can I release the resource?
Trying to run a SSIS package from a SQL job, and the package itself has a step that calls a process task that runs a batch file. The syntax in the process task I have is the following:
executable: c:windowssystem32cmd.exe Arguments: /C e:SungardPTAencryptfile.bat Working Directory: e:sungardpta
I keep getting the following in my log:

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?
