SSIS IMPORTING ISSUE
Aug 24, 2007
Dear friends,
I am trying to import dbf files (which were located in one directory) to SQL Server 2005. All are same structure. So I have to import all files into one single table of SQL Server 2005.
ISSUE 1: dBASE is not supporting directly by 2005 .
DETAILS: 2005 is not allowing directly dBASE files to import but one way I found i.e changing extendend properties in connection manager. But this is for single file only. I have to import all files located in directory.
ISSUE2: Same destination table is not allowing by 2005
DETAILS: All dbf files are having same structure. I have to import them into single table of SQL Server 2005. But it is giving the error while I am using SSIS wizard like "same destination is not allowed and destination table must be unique"
So, plz help me to resolve this issue.
seeking for ur reply asap (very urgent need)

Hi guys
I need help, I am building an Intranet for my company, and we have a system here that we use to clock in and clock out, and the data is stored in an Access database. Now the HR manager needs to run a report weekly for all the temps to see what time they clocked in and out. I have designed a web form where he puts in the date from and date to and select the employee, BUT the problem is I'm using SQL Server, I import the Access database to SQL every morning. Now I need to know How can I have Job in SQL that will import the data automatically without me having to do it manually every morning.
How do I do this using SSIS and DTS I'm using SQL Server 2005.
Thanx guys, plz help

I'm trying to import a text file into a table. The table has a nullable bit field. The corresponding field in the file has Y/N rather than 1/0. I'm getting an error on that column "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.". So I'm assuming I need to convert the Y/N to a 1/0 under the "derived columns" step. Is that correct and can someone tell me how to do that exactly?
Thanks

I can use MS Access to import an XML file and it builds the columns and loads the data. I am trying to use SQL Server 2005 to do the same thing and there doesn't seen to be a way to easily accomplish the same task that works so well in Access.
Has anyone tried this? If so and you were successful, what were the steps to set up the package?
Thanks.

I can't import a package from the SSIS to the file system of my SQL Server Management Studio. Every time i've tried the following message appears. What should i do to correct this problem? Any ideas?

In SQL 2000, I had a working DTS package that would import a Pervasive SQL database into SQL 2000 (There is a good reason, provided on request). The column type definitions came over just fine in SQL 2000 with a few minor changes.
In SQL 2005 (SSIS), i create a Data Source via the Connection Manager (Provider: .Net ProvidersOdbc Data Provider) to the Pervasive database (System DSN, <database_odbc>). I then create a Data Destination via the Connection Manager (Provider: Native OLE DBSQL Native Client) to the SQL database. Both databases reside on the same machine.
I've created a DataSource Reader and used the sql command, "select * from ARCustomer" as an example. The issue is with "data types" for the columns. They don't come close to resembling the results that i had in SQL 2000 DTS.
Is there another method or parameter setting that will preserve the "data types" for the columns being imported from the Pervasive database.
This has been a real stumbling block and any help would be truly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your assistance ... Bernie

Okay... I am now about to pull my hair out: something that worked VERY EASILY in Server 2000 doesn't seem to work at all in 2005. I am trying to pump an Excel table into a 2005 database. I go into the Visual Studio Integration Services Project (this is so much easier... cynicism) and set up a project. I have my data source (Excel), I have my destination (SQL Natve Server, database). I set it up the same way that it worked (perfectly) in DTS and I run it... it grinds away and reports back that all is well... no errors. I go looking for the table... not there. I try with an SA login VS windows authentication... not there. I try with a different table... no there. I try with a different database... not there.
I am certain you can imagine the frustration... that is, if you are a user, not a programmer at Microsoft.
Okay, okay... I won't launch in to abuse here... but hey, how do I make this very complicated process now work?
Thanks...

I want to read data from a XML into SQL Server database tables "tour" and "stop".
There is a 1:n relation between tour and stop.
(a shortened XML sample, relation Tour : Stop = 1 : n)
<Tour>
<Mandator>mein kunde</Mandator>
<TourNoPlan>TNP_1</TourNoPlan>
<TourNo>1</TourNo>
<Stop>
<StopNo>SN_1</StopNo>
<GPSGeoDec>+8.0000,+48.0000</GPSGeoDec>
</Stop>
<Stop>
<StopNo>SN_2</StopNo>
<GPSGeoDec>+8.3000,+48.5000</GPSGeoDec>
</Stop>
</Tour>
I am able to insert elements from <Tour> into the table "tour" with the data flow in the Integration Services. But I need the values from the tag <TourNoPlan> in the rows for the table stop (it is the foreign key) in the second step. How can I get the values in the SSIS from the <Tour> in the dataflow for the different <stop>? It is a hierarchicle structure - normal for a XML. Is there a sample for reading such a XML into a Database? I have tried it with [Tour::TourNoPlan] or similar, but it was wrong. Second try was setting a UserVariable in the tour dataflow to the actual value of the TourNoPlan and using it in the data flow for the stop tags - but only a setting in a script at PostExecution was possible - to late.
I think a very simple problem and the same for each XML Import. Any ideas ???
Thanks and Best regards

I am going to set up a new SSIS package that will import data into 5 different tables on a SQL Server database. Â The source of the data is on another SQL Server and I will use to select the data. Â If one of the tables fail to import I do not want the SSIS package to import any of the data.What is the best way to create this package? Â Is it best to create one SSIS package, with five data flow tasks that are linked to each other. Â Within each data flow task, is a Source and Destination to transfer the data to each table. Â

I'm currently trying to pull data from a ProvideX database and replicate it in a collection of SQL Server tables. However, I'm having a heck of a time trying to convert some strange decimals stored by the ProvideX database. As an example of the data I'm trying to retrieve, I'll see something like [. 1] or [. 1] ([]'s are to show the bounds of the field). After analyzing the data, it seems the decimal in the field represents a 1,000 placeholder. Thus [. 1] really means 1, and [. 1] really means 10. Something like .100 would be 100. 6.500 would be 6500.
As you can imagine, the spaces are causing errors when trying to pull the data, and I can't for the life of me figure out to just pull it as a string, run a script to convert it to a correct number, and then save the transformed data into SQL Server. When running the import wizard, it seems I'm being forced to pull these columns as decimals. Currently I'm trying to just pull the data out "as is" and throw it in a raw file, to be processed out of SSIS. Obviously doing it all within SSIS would be ideal, but if that can't be done, I'll do whatever it takes. I should also say I'm new to SSIS packages, but not necessarily new to SQL Server or SQL in general.
1) How can I pull these columns as strings? If I try to change the Export columns in the source query data flow step, it gives me an error saying that I can't do that.
2) If I have to pull as decimals, how can I capture the row on error, process it, and send it back to the export? So far, when I get an error, I lose all information in the row to the right of and including the error field.
I appreciate any responses, as I'm kind of going in circles at this point. If this sort of thing has been discussed here prior, I apologize...I didn't find it in any searches I did. Please just point me in the right direction if you've dealt with this sort of problem before. It seems to me that it should be an easy thing to do. I'm just not finding any tutorials on it.

If I have an XML without an XSD what is the best way to create and import data in SQL Server? I know I can use xsd.exe to create an XSD from my XML.
But if I want my structure to be somewhat different in SQL server how would I go about creating a reliable and repeatable import system for my data so i can easily manage the data updates?

We have a 2014 SQL Server. I have a SSIS package written in VS 2008 where I am simply importing an .xlsx into an existing table via a mapped drive. I have it working on my development machine using the 2007 Access 32 bit driver from [URL]..... Our DBA is trying to schedule the package to execute on a schedule job on the 2014 server and we received an error. He installed the 32 bit driver and still getting the error. I set the package to run in 32 bit and we are still getting the error.

I saw this post by dterrie in the Wishlist thread and I just wanted to second it:
"How about bringing back a simple dBase import. The SSIS guys are clearly FAR out of touch with reality if they think people who handle data no longer need to work with dbf files. I've seen alot of dumb stuff in my day, bit this is just sheer brilliance. I just love the advice of first importing into Access and then importing the Access table. Gee, why didn't I think of such a convenient solution. I could have had a V-8."
I've been struggling with this the last couple days and finally decided to import the dBase III file into Access and then import that into SQL Server 2005. Imagine my surprise when I discovered this was the current recommended method.
That's just ridiculous. Can someone tell me why they would reduce some of the functionality of SQL Server from 2000 to 2005? This was a very easy process in SQL Server 2000...

I've imported an SSIS package into Management Studio (2008 R2) and I've set up a SQL Server Agent job to call the package but it fails due to error code: 0xc00160aa.
As far as I can tell this is because it is unable to read the location of the package despite it being a file system location within Management studio. Also I can run the package manually within Management Studio, but when I try to call it via the job it fails.

Hi,
I'm just learning SSIS. As I was following the tutorial on foreach loop container (lesson 2) to export multiple flat files in creating a simple ETL package in SSIS, I get the following error:
SSIS package "Take17.dtsx" starting.
Information: 0x4004300A at Extract Cobra EBA, DTS.Pipeline: Validation phase is beginning.

Warning: 0x80019002 at Take17: SSIS Warning Code DTS_W_MAXIMUMERRORCOUNTREACHED. The Execution method succeeded, but the number of errors raised (2) 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 "Take17.dtsx" finished: Failure.
I spent some time in understanding where could be the error. I traced it to the following place. If you take a look at the Lesson#2 in creating a simple ETL package in SSIS, using foreach loop container to import files into SQL server, as soon as I finish going through steps in configuring the file connection manager to use the variable for connectionstring, it immediately disappears. I repeated the tutorial three times exactly as I pointed out and when I reach to this step of configuring file connection manager for connectionstring, it takes the path and when I start debugging it, I get this error. When I go and check if everything is Ok, the connectionstring value is empty.
Why the value in connectionstring disappears?
Thank you.

Hi.
There is a "text" file generated by mainframe and it has to be uploaded to SQL Server. I've reproduced the situation with smaller sample. Let the file look like following:
A17 123.17 first row
BB29 493.19 second
ZZ3 18947.1 third row is longer
And in hex format:
00: 41 31 37 20 20 20 20 20 ”‚ 31 32 33 2E 31 37 20 20 A17 123.17
10: 66 69 72 73 74 20 72 6F ”‚ 77 0D 0A 42 42 32 39 20 first row™ª—™BB29
20: 20 00 20 34 39 33 2E 31 ”‚ 39 20 20 73 65 63 6F 6E 493.19 secon
30: 64 0D 0A 5A 5A 33 20 20 ”‚ 20 20 20 31 38 39 34 37 d™ª—™ZZ3 18947
40: 2E 31 20 74 68 69 72 64 ”‚ 20 72 6F 77 00 69 73 20 .1 third row is
50: 6C 6F 6E 67 65 72 ”‚ longer
I wrote "text" in quotes because sctrictly it is not pure text file - non-text binary zeros (0x00) happen sometimes instead of spaces (0x20).
The table is:
CREATE TABLE eng (
src varchar (512)
)
When i upload this file into SQL2000 using DTS or Import wizard, the table contains:
select src, substring(src,9,8), len(src) from eng
< src ><substr> <len>
A17 123.17 first row 123.17 25
BB29 493.19 22
ZZ3 18947.1 third row 18947.1 35
As one can see, everything was imported, including binary zeros. And though SELECT * in SSMS truncates strings upon reaching 0x00's, still all information is stored in tables - SUBSTRINGs show that.
When i upload this file into SQL2005 using SSIS or Import wizard the result is following:
< src ><substr> <len>
A17 123.17 first row 123.17 25
BB29 4
ZZ3 18947.1 third row 18947.1 25
This time table is half-empty - all characters behind binary zeros in respective rows are lost.
I stumbled upon this problem while migrating my DTSes to SSIS packages. Do you think there is some workaround, or i need to turn on some checkbox or smth else could help? Please...

I setup this package to import data from a Sharepoint list to a SQL Server data table. The primary key of my SQL table is mapped to the Title column of my Sharepoint list. There is a possibility that duplicate values will be entered in the Title field of the Sharepoint list. So when importing data into my table via SSIS, my package always error-out when there it comes across duplicate values. how you others have managed data integrity when importing from a Sharepoint list with the Title column being mapped to the primary key of a table.

I have a couple of hundred flat files to import into database tables using SSIS.
The files can be divided into groups by the format they use. I understand that I could import each group of files that have a common format at the same time using a Foreach Loop Container.
However, the example for the Foreach Loop Container has multiple files all being imported into the same database table. In my case, each file needs to be imported into a different database table.
Is it possible to import each set of files with the same format into different tables in a simple loop? I can't see a way to make a Data Flow Destination item accept its table name dynamically, which seems to prevent me doing this.
I suppose I could make a different Data Flow Destination item for each file, in the Data Flow. Would that be a reasonable solution, or is there a simpler solution, or should I just resign myself to making a separate Data Flow for every single file?

For the life of me I cannot figure out why SSIS will not convert varchar data. instead of using the table to table method, I wrote a SQL query so that I could transform the datatype ntext to varchar 512 understanding that natively MS is going towards all Unicode applications.
The source fields from Access are int, int, int and varchar(512). The same is true of the destination within SQL Server 2005. the field 'Answer' is the varchar field in question....
I get the following error
Validating (Error)

Error 0xc02020f6: Data Flow Task: Column "Answer" cannot convert between unicode and non-unicode string data types.

DTS used to be a very strong tool but a simple import such as this is causing me extreme grief and wondering of SQL2005 is ready for primetime. FYI SP1 is installed. I am running this from a workstation and not on the server if that makes a difference...
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello everyone and thanks in advance.
Ok, here's the deal. I am 1 of 2 developers at my organization, the other is a COBOL programmer. Long story short, every night he sends me a 22MB XML file containing our company's inventory. This contains about 40,000 items. In C#, I'm basically looping through all the XML nodes and on each node I load up an object with the particular properties (manufacturer, SKU, serial number, etc.) and call a Stored Procedure to to save the item.
In saving the item, I'm checking to see if it was already in my inventory and I either perform an update or an insert on the table as approriate. The query does a couple of other things like retreiving the Purchase Order Number, Cubic Feet, etc. from other tables. All in all, the query takes about 1-2 seconds to complete. I've optimized the query as much as I know how (including the addition of indexes), but this still takes at least 6 hours to complete the 40,000 items. Is this the best approach? Any other suggestions?
So far the only things I've thought about changing is:
1. Break it out into multiple queries to avoid poor compilation of execution plans
2. Multithread the C# app so that I'm running like 10 queries at once.
3. Get the COBOL programmer to give me a delimited file and do a BULK INSERT on it into an empty HEAP, then run a single INSERT and a single UPDATE (using CASE statements)
Again, Thanks in advance!
