SSIS - Package Performance Faster In BIDS?
Feb 22, 2008
I'm working on a fairly straight forward data transfer package and have found that the package runs dramatically faster when I run the package inside BIDS than with DTExec. When I run the package on the server using debug in BIDS, the job completes 1 million rows in around 6 minutes. When I run DTExec with the same package on the same server it is much slower and the package takes roughly 25 minutes to complete.
I know this sounds crazy and that it's supposed to be the other way around with DTExec running much faster, but I'm stumped as to what could be causing the issue. The machine this is running on is a two processor, dual core CPU with GB of RAM and I'm using terminal server to login and create the package with BIDS on SQL Server 2005 SP2.
The main feature of this package is a Foreach container that uses an ADO record set to loop over a set of values from a control table. There are a large number of iterations so the package loops frequently, but the data flow task is fairly simple and uses an OLEDB source and OLEDB destination to transfer data between two SQL Server 2005 databases.
The package works in either BIDS and DTExec, but I'm really puzzled why it would run so much faster inside BIDS?
Thanks in advance,

I have developed a simple SSIS Package that will export data from an AS400 iSeries server to a flat file. When I try to debug the package I receive this error. I have tried to change the security level of the package to EncryptAllWithPassword and specified a password. For some reason the password for the connection to the AS400 is not being retained. when I enter the password the following error disappears when I try to debug the package the error returns.
Does anyone know how to correct this? Thanks in advance for your help.
Things to also know:
I am using a Native OLE DBIBM AS400 OLE DB Provider w/user name and password (Allow saving password checked) Test Connection succeeded.
I am using a OLE DB Source to extract the data with Data Access Mode of Table or View. When I try to select a table I am prompted from the AS400 to enter password. Then I can see the tables.
I can select the columns I need and click OK to save.
Error 1 Validation error. Data Flow Task: OLE DB Source [39]: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "SERVERNAME.USERNAME" failed with error code 0xC0202009.

Hi,
I am surprised to see that in Business Inteligence Studio debugging mode, my packages take shorter. And when I run it through Agent on the SQL Server where data actually resides, it take around 70% longer time.
The package is now very closed to data and database engine itself, in BIDS it wasnt.
Anybody knows why this happen ? Do I need to tune up something ?
Any input in this will sincerely be appreciated.

Hi,
I have created a package that has
2 SQL Execute Task, One Loop container, 2 Data Flow tasks, 1 Foreach loop container, 1 ftp task. The data flow tasks has 1 oledb source, 1 flat file source, 1 row count transformation, 1 recordset destination and 1 oledb destination.
When I load the package into BIDS it takes 125 MB of memory and then everything is slow, the properties panel slides in slowly and exists slowly. The object is the packages are not painted properly. to make changes and run takes lot of time.
Am I doing anything wrong here? Why is it consuming so much of memory?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I have a SSIS package that contains a DTS 2000 package in it. The DTS 2000
package imports data into several tables from an ODBC data source. When I
execute the package through BIDS, no problems. Everything works great. I am
now trying to execute the SSIS package in my stored procedure & it gives me
the following error:
Error: 2007-01-30 11:54:24.06
Code: 0x00000000
Source: Populate IncrTables
Description: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040427):
Execution was canceled by user.
at DTS.PackageClass.Execute()
at
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.Exec80PackageTask.Exec80PackageTask.ExecuteThread()
End Error
I did a search for this & found KB 904796. It had the exact error message
but I don't believe my packages uses 2000 metadata services. Just to be
safe, I reinstalled the backward compatibility features & the DTS 2000 tools
on the server. That still did not fix anything. I found another forum that
suggested loading the DTS 2000 package internally, which I did & it did not
fix anything. I am using a password for the protection level so that is not
causing my issue. Does anyone else have any suggestions as to what I might be
able to try?
SQL 2005 Dev Ed SP1 & post SP1 hotfixes installed
Win 2k3 server
Thanks!

I have an SSIS package with around 25 lookups. Developing the package itself was slow. Now, everytime I try to load the package it takes forever and whenever I execute it I get an error.
Here are my questions:
1. Is there a way I can optimize the package?
2. Is it abnormal to have so many lookups? I am loading a dimension table with many fields and I need to look up on 25 tables to get the keys. I know one alternative is to use left joins in the source query and get the keys in the Source itself but we can have more visibility of what's happenning with Lookups. I would like to know other possibilities with lookups.
Thanks,
Srini

1. Use mssql server agent service to take the schedule
2. Use a .NET windows service with timers to call SqlClientConnection
above, which way would be faster and get a better performance?

Hi,
I created procedure which completes execution in 20 mins in sql server 2005 but if i kept the same procedure in Execute SQL Task in SSIS and executing means, it is taking 3 hrs.
Is there any way to increase the performance for the above same.
Any help would be appreciated

Hi,
I have multiple data flow tasks defined in my package. The task of the package is to extract data from Oracle/InfoLease tables and put them on to a SQL Server 2005 database.
Listed below are few queries that I had:
1. In SSIS package, I need to add "Data Conversion" component to convert from Unicode string datatype to String datatype. This was not required in SQL Server 2000 DTS package.
2. By default, Individual transformation is created for each column. Is there a way, to create one transformation for all columns.
3. This SSIS package is being executed as part of a job. The execution time takes around 33 mins.
The same functionality of the SSIS package was replicated in form of SQL Server 2000- DTS package and was executed in form of a job. This execution got completed in 9 mins.
So there has been a drastic increase in job execution time. Are there any ways to increase performance.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
I would like to know if any one out there has the same performance issue with ssis packages once you move from a 2GB of RAM, 4 processors to a 16 GB of RAM with 8 processors. My SSIS packages performance is extreemly slow especially for one of my loading packages. The execution time for that package is almost double as compare to the execution time on the smaller box (2GB, 4 processor). There is no transformation for this package. It is just one lookup for existing or not and then do the insertion. This package is handling insertion of millions of rows.
The 2GB of RAM, 4 processor box is 32 bit with SP1 and the 16GB of RAM, 8 processors is 64 bit with SP2. However, I did try to force the execution of the package in 32 bit on the 64 bit server. The execution time is still the same as it is executed in 64 bit mode.
If any one out there has experienced the same thing and has known the cause to the problem, please let me know I would greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
MN

Hi,
When I installed SP1 on my SQL Server 2005, the performance of the package designer dropped enormously. I have to wait like 30 seconds after I drag-and-drop a datasource from the toolbox to the design area. Also it takes a very long time to run the very simple package. Not to mention opening some complicated package that was done before applying SP1. The package scheduled in SQL Agent went from 3-4min to 5-6min.
Can anyone address this issue? Maybe there's something I did wrong?
While installing SP1 I ecountered strange behaviour (some messages about file locking, rebooting and stuff), but in the end it said that it was successful
Best Regards

Hello everybody,
I have some problems of performance in my machine when i try to work whit a ETL that contains one connection of a excel 2007 file. These file has 3 page and it's 19MB. when i try to edit some data flow, my bids work very slow around 3 or 5 minutes, openning the Data flow source.
My machine configuration is:
Processor: Core2Duo of 1.66Ghz
Ram: 2GB
D.D:80GB
I'm working over a DB engine Sql Server 2005 Developer edition.
So, the excel file has thes load:
Page1: 5 columns X 62000 rows
Page2: 14 columns X 62000 rows
Page3: 12 columns X 123000 rows.
If i work with a file with the same structure but few rows, they work better. How can i correct these situation?.
Thank you!!

Hi,
I have a problem that's baffling me. I have a package that loads some files into the database. If I run it from BIDS, it works fine. But if I run the package from the job, I get this error:
Cannot open the datafile "D:myFoldermyFile.TXT".
It seems like a permissions issue, but the job runs under a local admin account, and not to mention, the very same package/job reads and loads files from this exact same directory, with no problems.
Halp.

I am runing WinXP Pro SP2 with all current updates and also VS2005 Team Ed for Developers. VS2005 is installed on D drive as is nearly all of my development tools. SQL Server 2000 SP4 is on the C drive and just installed SQL 2005 express with advanced services to D drive. I then attempted to install the express toolkit BIDS to the D drive only to learn it's hard coded(really stupid to not check for existing VS 2005) to install on C drive only. I've gotten past the denenv.exe issue.
The issue now is when I open VS2005 with the normal shortcut or the Business Intelligence Development Studio short cut and open any project that contains Crystal Reports reports and attempt to open a report I get package load failures for ReportDesignerPackage and Datawarehouse VSIntegration Layer Package. Also get this same error if you try to now create a BIDS report project.
I thought maybe VS2005 has a search path variable in tools/options or maybe a system envirnoment variable that could be tweaked to tell VS2005 to also look in the IDE folder for the dummy VS install on the C Drive. If there is I have not discovered it yet.
Second thought was to copy the files in the IDE folder of the dummy VS install on C drive to the IDE folder where my VS2005 is actually installed. I saw a post last night by someone that had done that with apparent success. That solution seems a little suspect since the BIDS packages files are registered at the C drive paths, so you certainly don't want to delete or move those files from where they were installed.
I'm nervous about side effects on my existing VS2005 projects during development and deployment and aren't even using BIDS.
So, now the question is how does one resolve this conumdrum?

Most of my packages that I've created in BIDS will NOT run in SQL Server 2005. The simplest one that I have fails during a script task that calls external managed code. I've done all the steps outlined in "Referencing Other Assemblies...", but I'm still getting "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." Here's a sample of a script that's having a problem. The line in green is the one that seems to be cause of the error. This is extremely frustrating. This code will even run from a command line console without error. Why is it so difficult to deploy one of these projects with managed code?
Code Snippet
Public Sub Main()
Dim variable1 As String = DirectCast(Dts.Variables("packagevariable1").Value, String)
Dim variable2 As String = DirectCast(Dts.Variables("packagevariable2").Value, String)
Dim variable3 As Integer = DirectCast(Dts.Variables("packagevariable3").Value, Integer)
Dim variable4 As String = DirectCast(Dts.Variables("packagevariable4").Value, String)
Dim filePath As String = DirectCast(Dts.Variables("filePath").Value, String)
Dim variable5 As String = DirectCast(Dts.Variables("packagevariable5").Value, String)
Dim results As Boolean
Dim fileGenerator As IProviderInterface
Dim intFactory As integrationServiceFactory = New ProviderIntegrationServiceFactory()
fileGenerator = intFactory.GetProviderEnrollmentGenerator(variable2, variable5)
results = fileGenerator.GenerateFile(variable3, variable1, filePath, variable2)
If results Then
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
Else
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Failure
End If
End Sub

I have a 7 step SSIS package that manipulates some data on a DB2 database. The package executes perfectly in Business Intelligence Development Studio. I save the package to my SSIS store and then point my scheduled task to it and it fails after about 9 seconds everytime. I have an identical job that works with a different DB2 database that works without any problem. The only difference is the database it's pointing to.
The package is executing as the same user who created it, which has sysadmin to both the SSIS store and the SQL instance the package is executing on. When I saved the package I selected "Rely on server storage roles for access control" for the protection level.
This one is driving me crazy, can't figure it out. Any idea's?

HI,
I have problems with executing packages in the SQL Server 2005 and before I go into the details I would like to check, if my workflow is correct.
Can someone explain me the best way to move a package from BIDS to a SQL Server? I would like to store the packages in the SQL Server.
In addition if I login to Integration Services with SQL Server Management Studio I can see in the folder "stored packages" my package but I cannot view the folder "MSDB". Ususally I receive an error message from the named pipe provider, that I could not connect to the server (I am using Windows Authentication and my login is an administrator on the SLQ Server box)
Thanks in advvance

Yesterday, SQL Server 2005 SP2 was installed on our DEV Server (Windows 2003 SP1 x86) and now I cannot right-click a package in the Solutions Explorer window in BIDS and Execute Package. When I do, I get the following error
===================================
Object reference not set to an instance of an object. (Microsoft Visual Studio)
------------------------------
Program Location:
at Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Project.DtsPackagesFolderProjectFeature.ExecuteTaskOrPackage(ProjectItem prjItem, String taskPath)
I know I could do this yesterday morning pre SP2. I've attempted this with a couple of different packages and solutions, so it is probably not a corrupt package (unless now they are all corrupt). I can execute in debug mode if I open the package first and then hit Start Debugging. However this is not always an optimal solution because I sometimes have many connected packages and sometimes what gets executed is not what is expected.
Your thoughts would be appreciated.

All:
As the subject suggests I am encountering an error while running a package through an agent. Unfortunately the error does not provide much information for me to diagnose the problem, and hence the post.
I have pasted the error below and appreciate help from anyone.

I would like to report what appears to me to be a bug. I found it while researching an answer for another thread. http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=554926&SiteID=17
Since that thread has not received any further replies I thought I would start a new one to see what answer we can get from MS as well as if anyone else would care to reproduce.
The bug is not a major one and the work around is easy, but it can be annoying.
The bug is this: if I open an SSIS package in BIDS (RTM or SP1) and the only change I make is adding or modifying an annotation and then click on Save and then close BIDS does not save the new annotation or changes made to existing annotations. If I change something other than an annotation then BIDS does save the annotations with the package.
A careful observer will notice that when opening a package and then modifying or adding an annotation that BIDS does not even register that the package has been changed. This is evident by the lack of the trailing asterisk in the title bar after the package name.
In summary if I go into a package for the sole purpose of adding and/or modifying annotations they will not get saved. Workaround: modify something else in the package and then save.

Any way to run a package without having VS Data Tools or BIDS installed in the local machine? Scenario: I build a package and I put the package in a folder. I would like that one of my colleague run the package all by himself but I don't want install BIDS or DTT in his machine. Is there any plug in, trick or something else I can do?

Hi,
I have a package with a custom log provider, which runs in BIDS. However when I deploy the package onto SQL Server and run it on the deployed machine, if fails:
"failed to decrypt protected XML node DTS:Password...key not valid for use in specified state..."
Now this is definately to do with the custom log, as if I take it out & redeploy, I can run it on the deplyed server + also run it within a job. I have entered the custom log provider library (+ other required DLLs) in the GAC on the deployed machine, but I'm clearly missing something.
Any ideas pls??? I'm really stuck.
Many thanks in advance,

Hi I have completed my first SSIS master package which runs a whole lot of child packages depending on value of expressions on workflow. (refer http://www.sqlis.com/306-3.aspx)
Each of my child packages is .dtsx file location and each Excute Package task uses the file connection.
The master parent package is also a dtsx file location which will be run by a SQL Server 2005 Agent
All good--problem is testing from BIDs--each time a Excecute package task is run--turns yellow a new tab appears apears in the design window --showing you that particular .dtsx file control flow detail. DTS never had this behaviour --can I turn this off in the BIDS ie as I have dozens of new tabs at run time which makes it very hard to keep track of the master package. All I want is the master package running from BIDs, and no new tabs appearing at run time???
Thanks kindly
Dave

Hi
My PM and me are on a discussion. He wants SSIS to simply upload the source excel files in staging and do rest of the ETL in SQl server stored procedure which I feel is primitive.
I have suggested him to use SSIS for whole ETL and not Stored procedure( method which indistry has discarded)
He sayd Stored procedure are more efficient than SSIS.
Please guide with some facts.

Hi,
I have been working on an SSIS project for sometime now. The project files are located on a remote server. Suddenly I am not able to open the solution I get a lot of error messages and all the data flow taks are gone. I later found out that SSIS encrypts packages, so that other users will not be able to see them. Fine, but I have been using the same windows user account for months now. What could be the problem?
This is what I get when trying to open the solution:
There were errors while the package was being loaded.
The package might be corrupted.
See the Error List for details.
And the error list also contains messages saying "Could not load from xml".
Any pointers will be much appreciated.
TIA

We are using SQL Server 2005 Workgroup Edition SP2. I have a fixed-length flat file import spec created in SQL Server Mgmt Studio using the Import wizard. I then created an Integration Sevices project in BIDS and added the existing SQL Server package created with the wizard to the project. When I try to edit the package with the SSIS designer, it does not appear to handle the package properly. That is, only some of the fields are selected (and when I select all the available fields, still only some show up in the detail pane of the Input Columns tab), the data types are incorrect, and the starting location (it's a fixed length file, remember) for each field (LineageID?) is incorrect. My understanding is that, with Workgroup Edition, there are only two ways, other than say programmatically from a VB program, to run the package: (1) by creating a SQL Agent job or from a BIDS project. I have seen a Cumulative Update package (#2) for SP2 that mentions some problems in BIDS' handling of SSIS pkgs, but the symptoms are in no way similar to this. Can anyone tell me what is going on here?? Thanks.

Why are some SSIS files, generated by the Import/Export Data wizard put into the local users temp folder? Why are these not compiled with the package when the solution is built?
Is there some setting I am missing?
This architecture is kind of silly, as the server always needs access to the temp folder on the local machine to run.
How can I get these temp files packaged with the rest of the package and deployed to the server so the server can run independent of the machine I develop the package on?
Thanks,
Jeff
