In my project i need to call a child package to send email to a group of users. All the configurations for sendemail task such as to, from, subject, attachment, and body are set using global variables. I pass all those variables from parent package and this is workin fine. Now my problem is the BODY MESSAGE. I need to have the body message which looks like the one below....
Status of PCCODS database on (PRODSQL6):
TimeStamp on database: 10/25/2006 6:51:32 PM
FACILITY OPEN/CLOSE STATUS
--------------------------
-- Number of facilities open for month 10 is 80
(See attached PCCCLoseStatus excel file for details on closed facilities.)
Here u need to look at Timestamp, some values like '10', '80' , 'PRODSQL6' are all passed through a different global variables. This is my problem!
I already have a workin project that works fine if i pass just one line of body message. Now follows the issues
1) I cannot enter more than one line in the variable value column(if it's one line then it will work fine!!!!)
2) I need to get some values from parentpackage global variables displayed in the email.
3) I need to have a body message that looks like above one.
I really doubt whether i could implement these by just passing all these in one global variable or i should have a script task, i donno..... may be someone can help me do this!!! How can i have this kindof body message implemented in SSIS?
Suggestions are greatly appreciated....
I have a DTS package in SQL Server 2000 that has a Send Mail task to shoot me an email when it completes. When I tested this manually it ran fine however when it runs as a scheduled job in the SQL Agent the Send Mail task fails.
Prior to being able to send emails I installed Outlook so I could build a MAPI profile. With the MAPI profile there I am able to create and at least manually test a Send Mail task. From experience I believe this issue arises due to the fact that when I'm logged in Outlook is running but when I'm logged out of the Server, it is not running and so the task fails.
i have a package that contains a foreach loop container, in this container i have sql tasks, and execute package tasks, that end with a send mail task. if there something wrong with the smtp server, or it's down, the send mail task fails the package. i don't want this to happen, what i want that if the send mail taks fails, the package will continue it's execution.
--i thought of using the event handler... but i don't know if it works...
I have attempted to report out errors at the end of an ETL process by alerting supporting DBAs of errors using the SSIS "Send Mail Task". Task completes along with the sequenced packages, but does not mail anything out. No logic at this time for trigger, just success from the previous task triggering the task to send mail. I also get no errors in the output, and I get no output indicating the send mail task fired, but it does go "green". Do I have to enable database mail and have privileges?
Component Configuration:
SMTP Connection Manager - SMTP Server: arsocex02
Send Mail Editor -

OK. I give up and need help. Hopefully it's something minor ...
I have a dataflow which returns email addresses to a recordset.
I pass this recordset into a ForEachLoop configuring the enumerator as (Foreach ADO Enumerator). I also map the email address as a variable with index 0.
I then have a Execute SQL task which receives this email address as a varchar variable (parameter 0) which I then use in my SQL command to limit the rows returned. I have commented out the where clause and returned all rows regardless of email address to try to troubleshoot this problem. In either event, I then use a resultset to store the query result of type object and result name 0.
I then pass this resultset into a script variable to start parsing the sql rows returned as type object. ( I assume this is the correct way to do this from other prior posts ...).
The script appears to throw an exception at the following line. I assume it's because I'm either not passing in the values properly or the query doesn't return anything. However, I am certain the query works as it executes just fine at the command prompt.
My intent is to email the query results to each email address with the following type of data by passing the parsed data from the script to a send mail task. Email works fine and sends out messages but the content is empty. I pass the parsed data as string values to the messagesource and define the messagesourcetype as a variable in the mail task.
part number leadtime
x 5
y 9
....
Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
Dear all, I have switched off the firewall settings on my system and as suggested im entering the minimal information and data to send the mail. but still the Mail Task is failing.. plz suggest.
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.
I keep getting a generic "Error Sending Mail" error. For testing purposes I am just trying to send using my own email account. What goes in the SMTP Server box in the connection manager? I have tried:
A - the exchange server address (SOMETHING.us.company.com) B - The SMTP properties I see when I look at the properties of my email address: (my.name@abcd.efgh.company.com) C - Just the end portion of the SMTP properties: (abcd.efgh.company.com) D - My email address (my.name@company.com)
I don't know what to enter, or what is giving me such a generic error message.
I know you can specify additional recipients in the To column by sepperating them with a semicolon. But whats the easiest way to send to several users, when the email address must be retrieved from a table with a query like this:
select email from problem_subscribers
where project = 'project1'
and statusmail = 'OnError'
So when the eventhandler gets an OnError i want the mail task to be sent to each problemsubscriber.
Folks,Using NorthWind as Example: Parent Table derived from: Categories. I added a new Column E-Mail and Selecting rows where Category Id <=3. Here is my Data.
Category ID Category Name Category E-mail
1 Beverages Beverages.com
2 Condiments Condiments.com
3 Confections Child Table derived from: Products. I am Selecting rows where Category Id <=3. Here is my Sample Data.
Category ID Product Name Quantity Per Unit
1 Chang 24 - 12 oz bottles
1 Côte de Blaye 12 - 75 cl bottles
1 Ipoh Coffee 16 - 500 g tins
1 Outback Lager 24 - 355 ml bottles
2 Aniseed Syrup 12 - 550 ml bottles
2 Chef Anton's Gumbo Mix 36 boxes
2 Louisiana Hot Spiced Okra 24 - 8 oz jars
2 Northwoods Cranberry Sauce 12 - 12 oz jars
3 Chocolade 10 pkgs.
3 Gumbär Gummibärchen 100 - 250 g bags
3 Maxilaku 24 - 50 g pkgs.
3 Scottish Longbreads 10 boxes x 8 pieces
3 Sir Rodney's Scones 24 pkgs. x 4 pieces
3 Tarte au sucre 48 piesI would like to read 1st Category Id, Category E-Mail from Categories Table (ie. Category Id = 1), find that in Products Table. If match, extract matching records for that Category from Both Tables (Categories.CategoryID, Products.ProductName, Products.QuantityPerUnit) and e-mail them based on E-Mail Address from Parent (Categories ) Table. If no E-Mail Address is listed, do not create output file. In this instance Category Id = 3.Basically I want to select 1st record from Parent Table (Here is Category) and search for all matching Products in Products Table. And Create an E-mail and sending just those matching records. Repeat the same process for remaining rows from Categories Table. I am expecting my E-Mail Output like this: For Category Id: 1
2 Northwoods Cranberry Sauce 12 - 12 oz jarsI am not extracting the Data for any user Interface (ie. Grid View/Form View Etc). I will just create a Command Button in an ASP.NET 2.0 form to extract Data. My Tables are in SQL 2005. I was thinking to read the Category records in a Data Reader and within the While Loop, call a SP to retrieve the matching records from Products Table. If matching records found, call System SP_Mail to send the E-mail. The drawback with that for every category records (Within While Loop) I need to call my SP to get Products Data. Will be OVERKILL? Ideally I would like extract my records with one call to a SP. Is there any way I can run a while loop inside the SP and extract Child Data based on Parent Record? Any Help or sample URL, Tutorial Page will be appreciated. Thanks
We have jobs running successfully on one server. The jobs incluce a send mail step as one of the steps. We migrated the DB to a new server. I also migrated the jobs. Now the job is failing. We are getting error with the send mail task. The error says the stored procedure 'master.dbo.xp_smtp_sendmail' could not be found. I am not sure what is the problem. Please advise.
I have a task to send mail when the source file contains null values against id column.
I have set conditional split to split the null value rows to the different destination.Please help me how do i achieve this task when the source file contains null values against id column.
Well I thought it should be easier but send mail task supports only windows authentication but i want to give different user id/password, is there any other way to do it except script?

could anyone tell me how to get around this? also tell me how shud i add a send mail task so that i can check myself if i went wrong somewhere when i added it to my package.
I just created a very simple package in SQL 2005 using the Send Mail task - i made a connection manager & specified the Exchange server - and then ran the package and i got the below message: I am not sure what i did wrong since the message is pretty general. Anyone help would be very appreciated. Thanks
SSIS package "Test.dtsx" starting. Error: 0xC002F304 at Send Mail Task, Send Mail Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "Failure sending mail.". Task failed: Send Mail Task SSIS package "Test.dtsx" finished: Success.
Hello, I have the following problem. I have a (Test-) package containing a task that deletes rows in a table. On Failure I implemented a Send Mail task that informs me about the output. Now the problem: If I run the package in BIDS on my client computer the mail is sent and I get it. The same is true if I run the package on BIDS on the Testserver where the package is stored. Also I get a mail when running the package as SQL Agent Job. But I never get a message when I simply execute the package from the Managament Studio. Then I get the error message: "The task Send Mail Task cannot run on this edition of Integration Services. It requires a higher level edition. " This is the same whether the package is stored in msdb or in the Filesystem. Does anyone know why this is the case or how I can get rid of this error?
I want send email if certain conditions are met (by send mail task)... if compnay records does not exists in some table (returns null)... not task failure.... how do I achieve this without using Script task?
I am trying to use Send Mail Task to send mails within my package and I get the following error. "The server response was: 5.7.1 Unable to relay for test@mail.com". Can anyone help me on this?
I setup a "Send Mail Task" task and an SMTP connection objection. I ran the package and got this error:
>>>
SSIS package "Package.dtsx" starting. Error: 0xC002F304 at Send Mail Task, Send Mail Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "Failure sending mail.".

This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors. SSIS package "Package.dtsx" finished: Failure.

Usually the SSIS error messages are too complicated for me to understand but this one doesn't say enough to be useful. Next, I purposely put in an invaid IP address (last octet = 3456 !) for the SMTP address, ran the package, and got the identical error message. I learned something.
What SSIS toolslogsstrategies can help me track down the problem?
There is an ssis package which has 3 sql tasks and one data flow task in the control flow.And as per the reuirement for each task failure on the control flow a mail has to be sent across as a notification. I have placed the send mail task for each and every task onerror eventhandler.
The problem comes when i run the task individually as execute task only one notification is sent but as i run the whole package, the send mail task sends one mail each for the sql task failures but for the data flow task it send across two mails instead of one mail. Why is this weared behaviour?? Are there any properties to be set for this?
Plz do let me know how this can be done.so that on data flow failure the send mail task sends only one notification on the package run instead of two.
I am using a Send Mail task inside a For Each container that pull variables from a query. The package finishes without any errors every time. When there is no CC recipient, however, the email is seeminlyg never sent/recieved. I checked the SMTP logs and it looks like the SMTP relay is getting the message. The mail works fine if I add a CC. I've tested this by itself, and outside the For Each container there is no problem.
I have a problem using the send mail task with expressions. What I want to do is send a mail to all email addresses stored in a particular table.
What I already did:
I created a dataflow task that retrieves all email addresses from that particular table and writes them to a recordset destination; After that, I created a 'for each loop container' that loops through all email addresses. Until here, the package runs without any problems, and all email addresses are returned. Now I put a 'Send Mail' task in this 'for each loop container'. I enter a smtp connection, a from, a subject and a messagesource manually. But of course, I want the 'to' to be filled dynamically on runtime. Because of that, I added an expression on the expression tab where I map the ToLine with the variable filled during the loop. And now the problem: confirming everything and exiting the 'Send Mail' task result in a red cross appearing on the task, telling me 'No recipient is specified'. Of course, no recipient has been specified, as I want it to be filled on runtime. What I already tried, was to enter a recipient in the 'to'. Then the red cross disappears, but when running the package I get the same error.
