Let me apologize in advance for what I know is a very basic question,
but so far I'm not being terribly successful trying to find sample code
to learn from.
I'm trying to write (my first!) .Net Script in SSIS to check for the
existance of a file (since that seems to be the only way to do it).
I've created the Script Task, with the following settings:
PrecomplieScriptIntoBinaryCode = False (it complained at one point in time (possibly on validation))

Within the execution of a t-sql script how do I check for the existance of a temporary table associated with the session or a global temporary table?
My understanding is that the table name doesn't get placed in the current database sysobjects table - it goes into tempdb. But the object name is cryptic (so as to be unique) and I see no way of associating it with the current session (@@SPID).
I am trying to add columns to several tables in a singular database. I want to check to see if the column exists in a given table first before executing the alter table command so that I can skip that command if the column already exists, and avoid aborting my script prematurely. I can't seem to find a way to check for the column's existance. Any suggestions?
I am using a SSIS package to import the .xml data file from FTP location and process them into SQL Server DB by using Stored Procedures. I am using FTP Task to retrieve the file from FTP location but it only works when ever internet is available otherwise it fails, I placed this package as a SQL Server Agent Job. Can anybody tell me the way to check the CONNECTION before FTP Task start its process to avoid the errors???
Please see the error below which I get from SQL Server Agent:
"Description: Failed to decrypt protected XML node "DTSroperty" with error 0x80070002 "The system cannot find the file specified.". You may not be authorized to access this information.

How do you determine in a (SQL table or view) calcualted field (yes/no) if a file exists.
Specifically, I have a view with a field (column) that calculates a filename (path plus file name from another field, plus extension. I want to determine if that calculated file name represents an existing file.
Also, if you could consider replying to this as well: How to determine file existance in ASP, when the file is not on the same server as the internet service (which is easy), but resides on another server, or when a URL is given for the file location.
I have built a package that firstly shrinks a database and then backs it up which is scheduled to run each day, but I would like to add a check (Check Database Integrity) in as the first task and if the Database checks out ok then continue on, if not send an email.
Now, I am unsure if the Check Database Integrity Task in SSIS actually returns the success or failure message back to the package that I am after. The SQL behind the task includes the NO_INFOMSGS option.
Can anyone advise if it is possible to have the status/integrity of the database returned to the SSIS task and to proceed based on the result?
I need to check if a file exists (using a filename pattern as the filename will be dynamic) in a directory.
I am trying to use the File.Exists() method in a Script Task. However, it does not allow me to do something like - File.Exists("C:Files*.xls") Or File.Exists("C:Filesabc*.xls")
Could you tell me which code of vb scrip that i can check file size as follow ?
Dim FSO, Fyl Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set Fyl = CreateObject("File")
If FSO.FileExists("C: emplcbseg.log") Then Set Fyl = FSO.GetFile("C: emplcbseg.log") If Fyl.Size > 0 Then Main = DTSStepScriptResult_ExecuteTask Else Main = DTSStepScriptResult_DontExecuteTask End If End if
I need to create a script task in sql server 2008 R2 to check if a file exists in a directory. For example, to see if output.dat exist under c:results. If the file exists, then send out an email stating the file exists, if not then send out another email stating the file does not exists.I noticed there is a huge difference between the script task in sql 2005 and sql 2008 r2.
Using SSIS, I want to check if a specific file exists on an FTP server or not. If yes, then i'll go with a flow, and if not, i'll go with another flow. Any help with that?
A common issue that I run across with clients is they want only want to process a file if it's finished transmitting to the server. This SQL Server 2005 task reads the properties of a file and writes the values to a series of variables. For example, you can use this task to determine if the file is in use (still be uploaded or written to) and then conditionally run the Data Flow task to load the file if it's not being used. You can also use it to determine when the file was created in order to determine if it must be archived.
I have huge data and i am loading data from EXCEL to database table, after loading 80 percent data i am getting some error. My package got failed and it has lots of transformation and took around 6 hours to process completely because of that i don't want it to reload from start. if i run it again it should start from next record from where i got the error.
I have a data flow task inside a foreach loop container which will take multiple excel files and load into a sql table. Once all the excel files are loaded into the table, then at the end one of the column gets updated using execute sql task. Now I am trying to check for a file existence, if the file is not present in the folder then the data flow task should not be executed. Any help is greatly appreciated, I am thinking of using file system task for this, but not exactly sure. Thanks in advance.
Historically I've always written a VB script to copy a file from a sharepoint library. I don't like this method because I have to input a username & password in the script and maintain a config file.
Yesterday I was playing around with using a file system task. The sharepoint file has a UNC path so why not? I created a simple test package with a single file system task that copies the sharepoint file (addressed via UNC) to another network location. Package runs fine locally.
I try running on our utility server but am getting a "The file name [SHAREPOINT UNC PATH] specified in the connection was not valid" error. Package is running with a proxy on the server and the proxy account has the same permissions to the sharepoint site (so far as I can tell) as me.
I need to move files from one location to another location and rename the file using File System Task in SSIS.. There are curent file and archived files in the folder ( C:donwload) and i need to grap only current file ( i.e Zipcode062407) and move to C:staging folder and rename it to currentzipcode.txt how can i grap only current file and move it to the different folder and rename the file using File System Task in SSIS?
I'm having an issue with a file system task & I'm not sure whether it is user error on my part or a bug. I'm using a SQL Task to create a transaction log backup & I'm saving the name of the file in a result set which I then am mapping to a package level user variable. After that runs I'm trying to copy this .BAK file to another folder using the file system task. I'm setting the following properties on the file system task.
Isdestinationpathvariable: False
Then I have entered the static directory for the file move.
Operation: Tried it with both copy file & move file.
Issourcepathvariable: True
Sourceconnection: User::File_name
After setting this I immediately get a validation warning telling me the source directory cannot be empty. If I try to run it, it fails. The weird thing is that if I set up a connection manager to a flat file & pass my user variable in as the connection string to this connection. Then set the Issourcepathvariable to false & the Sourceconnection to this connection manager it works.
I also have gotten it to work by substituting an ftp task in place of the file system task. The ftp task has no problem when I set the Islocalpathvariable to true & then pass my variable to Localvariable property. This is why I believe there is some sort of issue with the file system task. Has anyone seen this before? Is there some sort of problem with the way I'm setting it up?
Wanting to use File System Task in SSIS to move files from one location to another for archiving. I can't seem to figure out how to use a wild card for the file name. It seems that I must specify the actual file name which is a problem because only the first 4 letters in the file name remain a constant.
Does anyone know how to use a wild card or a way to work this in?
I have just loaded SQL Server 2005 SP1 and it is playing havoc with any SSIS packages that use the File System Task.
I am using the FST to copy a file to a directory after it has been loaded. This worked fine prior to SQ1 but now I am getting the following error if there are one or more files already in the target directory:
[File System Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "The directory is not empty. ".
If I remove all files from the directory it works fine.
Has anyone come across this problem and got a workaround for this? Will it involve me writing a FSO script task???
I get a "sample.txt.z" file from an ftp site. My work is to unzip the file and load it into SQL Server Database. Please give me VB Script to write in the SSIS Script task. to unzip the file. Please help i have posted the question in many blogs and i could not get the right answer. Thanks in Advance
I have a problem in which I want the run an SSIS based on a file being dropped in a directory. I've tried the WMI event watcher as well as the File Task Watcher component. The problem that I'm seeing is that if the process is currently processing in the pipeline while another file dropped, the newly dropped file doesn't get picked up. Is there a way to create a FileWatcher Task in SSIS which will spawn a SSIS job and return immediately for watching files?
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:

I'm trying to call WinSCP in a SSIS Execute Process Task using a .bat file to automate. SSIS is returning a generic failure error message ("Error: 0xC0029151 at Execute Process Task, Execute Process Task: In Executing "MyServerC$Program Files (x86)WinSCPWinSCP.exe" "-script=MyNASShareWinSCPFTP.bat " at "", The process exit code was "1" while the expected was "0"."). So now I'm trying to run the .bat file by itself. Unfortunately, the command prompt rushes by so fast that I can't see what the server is doing.
I can't find anything on the WinSCP site that indicates how to slow down the .bat file processing or log the remote server responses. I do see how to use the /log switch when using the interactive command line console, but that's not what I want to do.
Can't an SSIS package run "in the background", so to speak, without having either the cmd.exe or dtexecui windows open while executing? I'd obviously rather not have to have a window open when the thing is running right?
Hi, I am using SQL Server2005 for SSIS. I want to change the source connection dynamicaly evertime. Let me clear, I have to extract some column from excel to MS-Access. I am using Data Flow Task and able to successfully complete the job. But problem is that, whenever a new file comes , i must have to reconfigure my Excel Source. All the time column in file are same, so no need to worry about mapping but how can my package select a file automatically. I have a directory, suppose "C:dpak". I should able to pick the filename and sheet name from this directory every time when my package will execute.
I have an SSIS package that inserts website URLs from a SQLServer table into a variable used by an HTTP Connection Manager, then downloads the data files from those URLs using a ForEach Loop and a Script Task. Works beautifully when a data file is found at the URL, but hangs if no data file is found. I've set the Timeout property on the HTTP Connection Manager to 30 seconds, but doesn't work. how to first check if a data file exists, of if the request returns nothing, or how to trap this situation in a try-catch?
Here is the VB code I'm using in the Script Task:
Public Sub Main() Try ' Connect to website using HTTP connection manager Dim nativeObject As Object = Dts.Connections("HTTP Connection Manager").AcquireConnection(Nothing) ' Create a new HTTP client connection Dim connection As New HttpClientConnection(nativeObject)
I have a package which is creating a excel file 'ExcelName.xls' and storing in 'E:ReportingDelivered_Reports'. Now I have to attach this report using send mail task and send it to given mail id. To achieve this I have configured the send mail task and in Expression Builder, I have selected the below expression:
I need file name should be 'ExcelName_20150601' where suffix is the current date. But I recieve file which name is 'ExcelName', which is the original file name.
I want to open a excel file in script task and assigned the wraptext to one of the column. In the below code the final variable gives the path of the excel file. But i got the error at excel.workbook.open.
