SSIS Package Unable To Read File From Shared Location.
Jul 17, 2006
We are trying to import data from a .csv file which sits on shared location. This package runs fine when we run it from designer. but we are having problem when we do it at run time (accessing it through a service). Same package runs fine if that file is on same server.
Is any one gone through this issue before? i appreciate any help in resolving this issue.

I have an ssis package that moves data from a new csv file in a share location to sql server database table. However I need to get this agent job triggered whenever a new csv file gets added to the shared location.
What is a best strategy to do this keeping in mind that while package is running and two new csv files come in and package shd copy data from both the files.

Hi All,
I created a SSIS package to extract data from a flat file source and load them into a table in a data base. After I created the package i checked it in to source control(perforce).
But the problem is once a month new flat source file comes and data should be updated.
Once the new flat file comes, is there anyway that SSIS package can identify the path of the flat file and execute the package automatically? In Flat file source only the data will be changed. Not location or data type or anything.
Can i use parameters to do that?
Thanks

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.

Hi
I'm trying to create a package that copyes file from one folder to another. I have created a package configuration for the destination file connection manager and specified that i set the connection string with it. Now when i deploy the package into sql server it uses the package configuration file from this location : C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSPackages . This is not the location of the package configuration file i told the package to use.
when i change the destination folder for the package in the "c:program files ...." the sql server agent picks up the changes,
but when i specify the change in the package configuration file that i specified for the package to use, it gets ignored ???
Previously this worked allways... i dont know what i could have possibly done wrong. Except when i deploy the package
it asks for the location of the package dependencies which points to "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSPackages". I been to course about ssis and there never was any discussion that package dependencies should be changed, nor ahve i encoutered anywhere in the net that this property should be changed ?
Am i wrong to assume, that when i create the package configuration for the package, that the place where i tell it to be is not in fact the place where the sql server agent integration services job looks for it ?
Update
If i delete the package configuration file from "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSPackages" it still doesnt use the package configuration file that i have specified in the package configurations when i created the package ???
Update no 2
The package looks for the corrent package configuration file when i test it in the bids, but when i deploy it into sql server then the confguration is read from the "C:Program Files"....
In short thank you Microsoft for making a product that actually works the way the users wants it to, is simple to use and is simple to debug,
like i can totally read from the logs, event manager or just someplace else that i have yet to discover the reason for the package for reading the freaking config file from the wrong location... not. I have only spend like 6 hours today trying to make it work but it simply doesnt want to co-operate...

Please can anybody help me in transferring existing SSIS Packages saved in a shared folder location from development server 2ED to Live server TWD1.
Both has SQL server 2005 running and has visual studio 2005
Currently about 25 SSIS packages are executed from the development server transferring data on Live server TWD1...these ETL process is called from development server but executed on live server.
Now the problem is when i call these packages from the shared folder from live server it crashes.....i need to changes something to shift the whole package to the live server..and execute on live server itself instead of recreating the whole 25 process from scratch.....also i use optimize for many tables ..and run in a single trancastion....so how can i see the mappings of source and destination tables.
Please let me know the process how i can achieve this.
Thanks

Hi friends,
I have Transfered my dts packages from sql 2000 to sql2005 by directly migrating the rows from Sysdtspackages table on sqlserver 2000 to Sysdtspackages table on Sqlserver 2005.Now im able to see all my DTS of sql2000 in sqlserver 2005 Management studio under MANAGMENT--->LEGACY--->Data transforamtion services and i have all the corresponding records in sysdtspackages table of MSDB database on SQLSERVER 2005.
Now i have to schedule a job for executing these dts packages. In the job schedule window, when i try to select my dts packages on the SSIS package store for the package source and go to SSIS --->MSDB, IM NOT ABLE TO FIND MY DTS PACKAGES? WHERE ARE MY DTS PACKAGES GONE. HOW CAN I SCHEDULE.
i can find another table by name 'sysdtspackages90' on msdb database.do i have to migrate the data from sysdtspackages to sysdtspacakges90 ?
Please help out.

My parent package calls packages stored in the file system. While developing, I would like to call packages in the project bin directory. In production, I would like to call packages in a different development. Is this possible?
I can change the package connection string with an expression that refers to user variables PackageLocation1 or PackageLocation2. I would like to do this automatically. Is this something that should be done at deployment time? Or is there a run time value that I can check and conditionally use PackageLocation1 or PackageLocation2?
Development and deployment is done on the same server, so the same enivronment variable value would be used in an indirect configuration. Same thing applies to a file configuration.
Another question: Is it possible to set up a different Installation Folder for use during deployment? Every time I deploy, I have to navigate the folders, you can't even paste in the folder name.

I am having frustration with issues I'm seeing within Development Studio. Here's the problem:
A fixed-width flat file is to be imported into SQL 2005. I am running from within BIDS on my workstation and send the data remotely to the server. It has over 200 fields, and I am attempting to import them into dimension tables, and one fact table. I had to manually create the columns on the flat file connection manager for this process, since the data file is delimited.
The SSIS solution has one project, and several independent data flow tasks within it. After I set up the fcm, I mapped fields using a flat file source, hooked up a derived column and sort transform. The idea was to use a 3rd party tool, TableDifference, to implement a Type 2 dimension. I was able to successfully build three data flow tasks that ran correctly. Later, as was building new data flow tasks, our project people decided to change the data types of several of the fields from Datetime to character, and also rename another 40+ fields. I dutifully kept my fcm synchronized, since column mappings are automatic when the names match; data type changes were also unavoidable on some of the columns.
The problem was noticed after I changed some of the columns in the fcm. My flat file source adapters on all the tasks needed to resolve changed metadata so I had to 'edit' and save them again. The derived column, sort, and downstream transforms also had to be updated. I saw strange behavior on previously tested data flow tasks. Some of them gave me errors even connecting to their sources. Other times I saw erroneous paths being taken which led to data being changed incorrectly on the dimension tables (new records being added even if there was an existing match, records being marked as expired incorrectly, etc.).
Are there known issues with editing a shared file connection manager after it has already been referred to within data flow tasks? It appears that the only way to avoid the problems I've seen is to either:
1. Create separate fcm's for each data flow task. Use 'filler' fields for the ranges of all the columns in between each referenced column. This way if you have to change anything with it, the only rework involved is limited to the data flow task using it.
2. Create one fcm for the entire package and NEVER change anything with it. If a column name is wrong, use a derived column to rename it in the data flow. If a data type changes, try to use a data conversion transform, but be sure to rename its output column so that it is not called 'data conversion.<field name>'. I think that's done in the Advanced Editor for the sort task.
My experience using BIDS has been hot and cold. It's nice to be able to quickly build the tasks you need, but it's as if the metadata (pipeline) is much too sensitive to change and requires a lot of touching up, either upstream at the source adapter level, or across data flow tasks when you make changes to the FCM. Maybe the problem is just limited to flat files...
Are there any tips or lessons learned from anyone on this? I've got another developer willing to create the FCM for other data feeds so I can copy/paste them into other projects. It would just be nice to know there was a bug fix or a good method to avoid all this 'rework' when you have to make changes to the FCM after the fact.
Thanks in advance.

There are two options to specify the subpackage location (SQL Server or file location). I'd like to know how I can specify a variable name that points to the file location so I avoid hard coding the file location which could change during production installation.

Hi,
We have an extensive set of SSIS packages that run daily to build our datawarehouse. We have run into a bit off a maintenance issue which I am hoping someone can help me with. The SSIS packages execute stored procedures. What I would like to know is, is there a quick way to determine what SSIS package is running a certain stored procedure?
My first approach was to load the packages into a table in a database using various xml functions. Basically, the table would contain the package name, and then the stored procedures that package executes. I have run into some difficulties with this though. Has anyone tried anything similar or perhaps know of a tool which could provide similar functionality?
Some help would be much appreciated.

Hello Experts,
I am createing one task (user control) in SSIS. I have property grid in my GUI and 2 buttons (OK & Cancle).
PropertyGrid has Properties like SourceConnection, OutputConnection etc....right now I am able to populate Connections in list box next to Source and Output Property.
Now my question to you guys is depending on Source Connection it should read that text file associated with connection manager. After validation it should pick header (first line of text file bases on record type) and write it into new file when task is executed. I have following code for your reference. Please let me know I am going in right direction or not..
What should go here ?
->Under Class A
public override DTSExecResult Execute(Connections connections, VariableDispenser variableDispenser, IDTSComponentEvents componentEvents, IDTSLogging log, object transaction)
{
//Some code to read file and write it into new file
return DTSExecResult.Success;
}
public const string Property_Task = "CustomErrorControl";
public const string Property_SourceConnection = "SourceConnection";
public void LoadFromXML(XmlElement node, IDTSInfoEvents infoEvents)
{
if (node.Name != Property_Task)
{
throw new Exception(String.Format("Invalid task element '{0}' in LoadFromXML.", node.Name));
}
else
{
try
{
_sourceConnectionId = node.Attributes.GetNamedItem(Property_SourceConnection).Value;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
infoEvents.FireError(0, "LoadFromXML", ex.Message, "", 0);
}
}
}
public void SaveToXML(XmlDocument doc, IDTSInfoEvents infoEvents)
{
try
{
// // Create Task Element
XmlElement taskElement = doc.CreateElement("", Property_Task, "");
doc.AppendChild(taskElement);
// // Save source FileConnection
XmlAttribute sourcefileAttribute = doc.CreateAttribute(Property_SourceConnection);
sourcefileAttribute.Value = _sourceConnectionId;
taskElement.Attributes.Append(sourcefileAttribute);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
infoEvents.FireError(0, "SaveXML", ex.Message, "", 0);
}
}
In UI Class there is OK Click event.
private void btnOK_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
_taskHost.Properties[CustomErrorControl.Property_SourceConnection].SetValue(_taskHost, propertyGrid1.Text);
btnOK.DialogResult = DialogResult.OK;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex);
}
#endregion

Hi,
Is it possible in any ways to Configure a SSIS package in such a way that based on the User Input the package runs. For e.g if there is a table which has say 10 distinct groups. Normal SSIS package would ideally pick all the data from the source to the Destination
I want to know how to configure in Such a way that I should be able to say Group X as the input and data related to GroupX alone should be copied.
Select * from SomeTable where GroupName = @CongigVar.
how to achieve something like this?
thanks

I'm trying to gather information from within a SSIS package for benchmarking, reconciliation, and reporting purposes in regards to cube processing, which I'm initiating using the AS processing task.
What is the easiest way to capture this information?
The only way I've been able to come up with is to use a profiler trace. If this is really the only way, what is the easiest way to execute and read the trace from within SSIS?
Also, if a script task has to be used, does anyone have a code sample?
Thanks in advance!

I (actually my DBA did it) have created an SSIS package in MS SQL Server 2005. It can be found under Integration Services under:
Stored Packages
MSDB
VisBridges
ExportTime
Using the Execute Package Utility, it runs perfectly.
I used the article at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms403355.aspx to build an application to run it.
My code includes the following (written in VB.Net):
a Web Service Function called LaunchPackage:
Public Function LaunchPackage(ByVal sourceType As String, _
ByVal sourceLocation As String, _
ByVal packageName As String) As Integer ' DTSExecResult
Dim packagePath As String
Dim myPackage As New Package()
Dim integrationServices As New Application
' combine path and file name
packagePath = Path.Combine(sourceLocation, packageName)
Select Case sourceType
Case "file"
' package is stored as a file.
' add extension if not present.
If String.IsNullOrEmpty(Path.GetExtension(packageName)) Then
packagePath = String.Concat(packagePath, ".dtsx")
End If
If File.Exists(packagePath) Then
myPackage = integrationServices.LoadPackage(packagePath, Nothing)
Else
Throw New ApplicationException("Invalid file location: " & packagePath)
End If
Case "sql"
' Package stored in MSDB.
' Combine logical path and package name.
If integrationServices.ExistsOnSqlServer(packagePath, <servername>, <UserID>, <password>) Then
myPackage = integrationServices.LoadFromSqlServer(packageName, <servername>, <UserID>, <password>, Nothing)
Else
Throw New ApplicationException("Invalid package name or location: " & packagePath)
End If
Case "dts"
' package is managed by SSIS Package Store.
' Default logical paths are File System and MSDB.
If integrationServices.FolderExistsOnDtsServer(packagePath, <servername>) Then
myPackage = integrationServices.LoadFromDtsServer(packagePath, <servername>, Nothing)
Else
Throw New ApplicationException("Invalid package name or location: " & packagePath)
End If
Case Else
Throw New ApplicationException("Invalid sourceType argument: valid values are 'file', 'sql', and 'dts'.")
End Select
Return myPackage.Execute()
End Function
My TestPage includes the following:
Protected Sub btnSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSubmit.Click
Dim launchPackageService As New LaunchSSISPackageService
Dim packageResult As Integer
Dim sourceType As String = "dts"
'Dim sourceLocation As String = "M:mssqlssiconfig" ' for "file"
'Dim sourceLocation As String = "MSDBVisBridges" ' for "sql"
Dim sourceLocation As String = "VisBridges" ' for "sql & dts"
'Dim sourceLocation As String = "MSDB"
If rdoCreateTimeTrans.Checked Then
Try
packageResult = launchPackageService.LaunchPackage(sourceType, sourceLocation, "ExportTime")
Catch ex As Exception
Response.Write("The following exception occurred: " & ex.Message)
End Try
End If
End Sub
I've tried both "sql" and "dts" with all the various permutations that are listed (and commented out) above. I either get an error that says:
The top level folder "VisBridges" is not found. ("dts" "VisBridges") -- or --
Invalid package name or location: MSDBVisBridgesExportTime ("dts" "MSDBVisBridges") -- or --
Cannot find folder "MSDBVisBridgesExportTime" ("sql" "MSDBVisBridges") -- or --
The specified package could not be loaded from the SQL Server database ("sql" "VisBridges")
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Michell

Hi,
I've created a new SSIS package and am trying to run it as a sqlagent job. If I 'Run as' the 'SQLSERVER AGENT' account I get 'Executed as user: domainadministrator. The package execution failed. The step failed'. If I change this to 'Run as' 'sql agent service account' I get the following message 'Executed as user: [[servername]SYSTEM. The package execution failed'. The step failed.
I can successfully run the package in visual studio, management studio and via the command prompt.
Presumably it is a permissions problem?? I've tried setting up the logging but nothing was written to the log when I run the job, there is otherwise(via Visual studio). I've also tried the following http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918760, but it made no difference.
Anybody else experienced anything similar?
Thanks,

Hi
I was wondering how I could pass on the following parameters from an ini file to a stored procedure within a DTS package. The parameters in the ini file look like:
[DatabaseCleaner]
! -- TableToBeCleaned_N=<table name>,<months to hold on db>,<months to hold on hd>
! -- <N> must be a successive number starting from 1 ...
TableToBeCleaned_1=Transactions,24,24
TableToBeCleaned_2=Payments,24,24
TableToBeCleaned_3=PresenceTickets,24,24
As I do not know how many tables that will be declared in the ini file I have to loop through until the last parameters and pass it over to the SP.
How can I do that? Any idea?
Thanks

Can multiple instances of SQL 2005 Express attach to the same database files on a network share? I have seen this done before with MSDE where the database files are stored on the server, but instead of having a SQL server running on the network and then connecting to it, only the database files exist on the network share and the users connect through MSDE running on the local machine. Is this possible with SQL2005Express? I do not have the ability to share an SQL instance from one workstation to another nor do I have the ability to install an instance on the corporate server. Is it as simple as creating the database and storing the files on the share then attaching the database to the SQL Instance on each workstation?

I’ve been trying for a while now (won’t say how long), to get BIDS to read a very simple Excel file.
I’m talking SIMPLE!! No matter what I don, SSIS keeps throwing an error, and of course it doesn’t say what the error is, so I can’t really debug it.
I’ve tried this at least 20x with flat files, and it works perfect each time. I’ve done Data Conversions, Sorting, Union All, and several other Transformations; all work perfect.
Trying to used Excel as a data source, is proving to be a mind numbing experience. Of over 20 different attempts, it hasn’t worked even once. I can make it as simple as you can possibly imagine, and SSIS, refuses to even perform the first step (I’m not even trying to create a table in SQL Server anymore).
I have the Excel file path (very simple)
I have the Excel version (very simple)
I have the Connection Manager (very simple)
I have the Sheet name (very simple)
All I can do is see a preview of the Excel sheet before the process runs. As soon as I het F5, I get an instant error, for no reason whatsoever, and no debugging options,whatsoever.
