I am right now looking at the new functionality in SSIS to cover some of the ways we can streamline proceses in the company. I know that SSIS has SendMail tasks, however I was wondering if there is any functionality for going out and receiving mail and parsing those messages in? Would this have to be done as custom code within SSIS and if so can anyone direct me to what would be needed to do so? Thanks.

plz suggest.
Hi Everyone,
Hopefully someone out there will have an idea as this is driving me nuts.
I've setup a task to email on success/failure and keep receiving the following message when executed:
Progress: The SendMail task is initiated. - 0 percent complete
[Send Mail Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Failure sending mail.".
Progress: The SendMail task is completed. - 100 percent complete
Task Send Mail Task failed
When I configure Outlook Express on the same machine with the same settings it works.
On the SMTP Connection Manager I have left the default name, tested with both an IP address and Server Name, and no authentication or SSL.
On the Send Mail Task, it uses the above connection. The To: , From: , Subject fields are populated. Message SourceType is DirectInput, MessageSource is Test, Priority is Normal and no attachments or expressions etc.
Nothing useful is logged in the Event Viewer even with full logging turned on.
Any suggestions appreciated,
Thanks.
Hi all,
I need to import data into my SQL Server 2005 from an E-mail datasource. It means that when a mail is send to a particular address I must retrieve the mail content or the attached file (in XML) and then I must import these data in my SQL Server 2005.
I am new in SSIS and I don't know if I can perform the import task with SSIS (with a POP3 or IMAP connector) or only with SQL Server 2005 (stored procedures) or can I manage it with C# .Net.
Thanks for your help.

I'm having some trouble with a new SQL 2005 Server. Database mail is configured/enabled. I've used SSIS to create a package that exports data to an Excel spreadsheet and e-mails the file to a user (currently, me).
The Send Mail Task will send a message with the file attached from SSIS while debugging the package but once the package is compiled (no errors compiling) and executed from a job, I don't get the mail message. SQL Server Agent reports successful completion of the job.
I decided to add the Send Mail step as an Execute SQL Task which calls the sp_send_dbmail proc. I can send mail with the attached file from Query Analyzer using sp_send_dbmail. It sends the message successfully in debug mode within SSIS as well. However, once compiled and deployed, it fails to send the message when called from a job. Again, SQL Server Agent reports successful completion of the job but the e-mail never comes.
MSSQL and SQL Server Agent are running under a domain account that is a local admin and member of the sysadmin role.
sp_send_dbmail is using a public profile in Database Mail.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
I'm trying to create a SSIS package that will send me a email when the package runs successfully and when it fails. My entire package runs successfully until it get to the Send Mail Task, where it always fails. Do I have to configure something on the database end or what? Thank you in advance.

Hi
I had a DTS package on sql2000 which i migrated succesfully to Sql2005 and im able to open the package and execute the package.Now i want to add a new database mail component on this package to send emails to recepients.In short i dont want to use SQL Mail component of Sql2000 which required outlook components,instead i want to use the new features of SSIS to my package which was designed on sql2000.
Is it possible to use the SSIS new features to be incorporated on my old DTS package?

SSIS dynamic SMTP mail server
Hi All,
I'm trying to make my SEND MAIL TASK in SSIS dynamic, by retrieving SMTP Server name (amongst other email message information) from a table.
I've got an SP that is getting the information into package variable's, and when I don't try and have a dynamic server name (i.e. I use a specified SMTP server in my SMPT Server connection), then the email get sent off.
I'm trying to use an expression to build alter the send mail to use the server name I have in a user variable.
I've tried using the expression for the property:
SmtpConnection set to: RTRIM( @[User::MailServer])
I also tried without the RTRIM - I only added it because the error messages seem to include a full 'string' length, and there doesn't seem to be a 'varchar' data type for SSIS variables.
so:
a> Is SMTPConnection the property I need to be setting? None of the others seem correct
b> If SMTPConnection IS the property I need, does the value give the SMTP Server Name, or just the Name of the connection from the Connection Manager's?
Thanks
Part-Answer to:
b> The SMPTConnection property sets the name of the CONNECTION to be used. That Connection needs to set the name of the server. So n ow, the question becomes, how do I configure that from SQL (I know how to use package configurations from XML files).
Hi,
I have got the problem connected with Send Mail Task in SSIS.
The general idea was: sending email alert to different email users. I tried to use Foreach Loop task which loops through dataset (where the emails are stored) and assign different email addresses to SSIS package variable.
When I try to use this task inside Foreach Loop task I receive this error message: "Error: 0xC002F304 at Send Mail Task, Send Mail Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "The parameter 'address' cannot be an empty string."
The SSIS package has variable (string) which is binded with ToLine - property of Send Mail task (it was set up in Expressions tab of Send Mail task). This ToLine property should assign different emails during every loop of Foreach Loop task.
But unfortunately is seems to be not true, because Send Mail task does not allow to assign different values to ToLine property while is in Run-Time.
Have you discovered this quite bizzare Send Mail task behaviour before ??
I appreciate every help and suggestions.
Thanks,Marek
Hi,
The send mail task in ssis was failing with following error
[Send Mail Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Failure sending mail.".
Progress: The SendMail task is completed. - 100 percent complete
Task Send Mail Task failed
The firewall for SMTP server was opened.
And successful in sending mail using Database Mail task from the sql server
Do any one have idea why this difference is? Do any one ever faced similar issue?
One reason I could found is McAfee virus scan policy is stopping the SSIS Send mail task.

If this is a duplicate post I apologise in advance as my search yielded many results about mail alerts but none like this.
The scenario is my SSIS package is scheduled to read data from a remote FoxPro source. If for any reason it fails I have set up an email task to alert internal users and an external helpdesk.
My problem is that if I am running it via Management Studio i.e. SQL Server Agent/Jobs/Start Job and I 'force a failure' by unplugging the network cable it successfully sends an email alert to all recipients (internal and external). If I let the job execute according to the schedule (still with the network cable unplugged) the job fails (as expected) but no email alerts are sent.
I log onto the server with a valid domain user account who has administrative rights to the server as well as dbo rights on the SQL instance. I deploy my package as the domain user and have checked that the domain user is also the 'owner' of the scheduled job.
I suspect it has something to do with ownership or which user is 'truly executing the scheduled job'. Any ideas would be welcome.
Thanks in advance, Craig
Hey there all,
i am having a weird problem with the send mail task in SSIS. I have tried to different things, and i end up with two different errors:
Firstly, i have setup a data dump to excel, and the send mail taks emails this to specific email addresses.
In the Send mail task i have validated to SMTP server, and its correct.
I have manually entered all the information in the Send mail task, and i am sending to multiple email addresses. These are all seperated by a semi colan. I run the task and it fails on the send mail task with the follwoing error:
Error: 0xC002F304 at Send Mail Task, Send Mail Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "Unable to send to all recipients.".
Task failed: Send Mail Task
I have validated all the email address and they are correct. I did some searching and someone suggested to replace the semi colan with a comma. I do this and i get the follwoing error"
Error: 0xC002F304 at Send Mail Task, Send Mail Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "Mailbox unavailable. The server response was: 5.7.1 Unable to relay for rpwallis@bigpond.com.au".
I have checked that the IP for the SQL server is on the list of allowed relays on our exchange server. Does it make a difference if i am running this from Visual studio on my laptop?? by this, does it pick up the ip of my laptop when i test this or does it use the ip address of the server?? This would explain the relay message error if so..
Could someone please explain if i should use comma's or semi colans to seperate email addresses? and also lead me in the right direction in relatio to my problems..
Many thanks in advance

parameterPageCount.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
command.Parameters.Add(parameterPageCount);
// Open the connection and execute the Command
connection.Open();

dr = command.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection);
pageCount =
(int)command.Parameters["@PageCount"].Value; // Null Reference Exception
}

Any thoughts?

I have a scenario whereby I will have 200+ clients putting messages onto a service broker queue. This message will go through a pipes and filters based messaging system, and ultimately the message will pop out the other end.
Here's the question: what is a good way of making sure the same client gets the response to the message he received. Is there anyway I can selectively receive messages from a queue, i.e., pass a correlation id in with the message, and then filter messages based on that id.
Or if someone knows a better way to do it altogether i'd really appreciate it.
Many thanks,
Paul
Is it possible to receive from a queue by a conversation handle? In the documentation there is an example that show you how to do it. Yet, if you "read" the whole document it says that the conversation handle can not be an expression.
The WHERE clause of the RECEIVE statement may only contain search conditions that use conversation_handle or conversation_group_id. The search condition may not contain any of the other columns in the queue. The conversation_handle or conversation_group_id may not be an expression.
Here is what I'm trying to do:
;RECEIVE TOP(1) @MsgBody = CAST(message_body as XML)
FROM ProcessingLetters
WHERE conversation_handle = @Conversation_Handle
It doesn't seem to matter if I use RECEIVE or SELECT. It will return nothing.
I've even tried this:
where cast(Conversation_Handle as varchar(100)) = cast(@Conversation_Handle as varchar(100))
Why am I doing this? I've put something into the queue to let me know that something is processing. When it is done I want to pull it out and end the conversation.
So is the WHERE conversation_handle = @Conversation_Handle supposed to work?
Thanks.

I have just had SQL Server 2005 installed on my machine. I did have SQL Server 2000 on my machine previously and can still access parts of 2000.
In 2005 I do not have the option schema option under security for any of the databases; therefore, I tried creating the schema manually as you will see below.
In 2005 I execute the following
CREATE SCHEMA TEST
GO
The message returned is "COMMAND COMPLETED SUCCESSFULLY"
I, then, execute the following
CREATE TABLE TEST.SalesPeople
(
SalesPersonId INT,
SalesPersonName VARCHAR(50)
)
GO
The message returned is
Msg 2760, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Specified owner name 'TEST' either does not exist or you do not have permission to use it.
Can you give me the correct syntax on how to create the schema manually? Do you know why this is not showing up under security for the databases?

If the service is defined with multiple contracts is there a way to receive a message with a specific contract?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've done a bit of work with the External Activator but I think it may be a bit overkill for what I need to do (which is RECEIVE messages from a single queue and process them with managed code). I've tried creating a Service Broker Interface service that retrieves messages from this queue, but I notice that if I set the timeout to -1 to watch for messages indefinitely, the Service never completes the OnStart code.
I notice if I change the service's timeout to something greater than 0, the message is retrieved, but this defeats the purpose of using a Windows Service app, which I want to continuously monitor the queue. I noticed the External Activator spawns a thread to start monitoring an EventNotification queue, which I can bypass since I want to monitor the notification's target queue.
Rushi, can you point me in the right direction to create a Windows Service that constantly monitors a queue? Also, I'd like the ability to monitor multiple databases (the queue name would be the same) as well, so if that is not feasible from a Windows Service please let me know.
Also, am I sacrificing scalability by NOT using the External Activator and switching to a Windows Service (I believe the External Activator will spawn multiple instances of the processing executable)?
Thanks,
Chris
