Hi all,
my PKG have a variable "strI"D and have a value like 'ABC'.
When execute the PKG from utility I can set dinamicaly the new value for that variable...but this action overwrite that one in the pkg or the value set in the PKG always is last choose.
I got a trouble if the variable value must be empy for dinamic set from execution utility...or if it isn't dinamic set is failure.
Thanks, Alen
My SSIS package carries out one data flow task after another e.g.
truncate tables
Copy table 1
cleanup tables
When using the execute package utility in SSMS to run the package , the data flow tasks are listed alphabetically, so it reads:
cleanup tables
Copy table 1
truncate tables
Can I change this so the data flow tasks are listed in the logical order I have specified them in the package as it makes it difficult to work out which step the package is at. And while I'm at it, it keeps telling me every separate task's elapsed time is zero when it's finished. It records the start and end time ok, but it can't seem to work out the elapsed time?!
I created a package within BIDS which tests successful. However when saved into MSDB and I execute the package, the package completes without any issues however doesn't work.
All the package is doing is a simple backup and copy operation but fails without any errors within the Execute Package Utility.
I'm a SQL Server 2000 user trying to get my head around v2005, in particular the changes from DTS to Integration Services.
I've build a few packages in BIDS and they work fine there, but saving them to either the file system or MSDB locations and running them in Management Studio results in:
Execute Package Utility has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
If I click on the debug button, I get this:
An unhandled exception ('System.IO.FileNotFoundException') occurred in DTExecUI.exe [404].
I've searched the Internet and found a few people who has also experienced this, but not received any answers.
Is there a kind guru out there with some idea of what is going on? Preferably something that doesn't involve re-installing, because the database has already been configured for our Blackberry users and I can't re-do it now.
I need the file created by my BCP QUERYOUT command I'm executing from XP_CmdShell in Transact-SQL to have a specific OWNER. I've tried using the sp_xp_cmdshell_proxy_account to setup the correct owner. The owner is always SERVERNAMEAdministrators.
I'm looking for a way to refer to a package variable within any Transact-SQL code included in either an Execute SQL or Execute T-SQL task. If this can be done, I need to know the technique to use - whether it's something similar to a parameter placeholder question mark or something else.
FYI - I've been able to successfully execute Transact-SQL statements within the Execute SQL task, so I don't think the Execute T-SQL task is even necessary for this purpose.
When I run my package, a task will fail, however, the package will claim that it was successful. Why is this, and how can I trigger a failed package when one task fails?
Hi everybody. I have such problem: After I move my integration services packege to another machine it failed. I tried to recreate connection manager, but result is the same. If I create a simple SQL task in that package and try to execute it - it fails with info:
SSIS package "Main_Package.dtsx" starting.
Error: 0xC00291EC at Execute SQL Task, Execute SQL Task: Failed to acquire connection "SRV-DSA3.TIA_EXTRACTS_OriginalData.sa". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
I have an Execute SQL Task (OLE DB Connnection Manager) with a SQL script in it. In this script I use several SQL variables (@my_variable). I would like to assign an IS variable ([User::My_Variable]) to one of my SQL variables on this script. Example:
DECLARE @my_variable int
, <several_others>
SET @my_variable = ?
<do_some_stuff>
Of course, I also set up the parameter mapping.
However, it seems this is not possible. Assigning a variable using a ? only seems to work in simple T-SQL statements.
I have several reasons for wanting to do this:
- the script uses several variables, several times. Not all SQL variables are assigned via IS variables.
- For reading and mainenance purposes, I prefer to pass the variable only once. Otherwise every time the script changes u need to keep track of all questionmarks and their order.
- Passing the variable once also makes it easier to design the script outside IS using Management Studio.
- This script only does preparation for the actual ETL, so I prefer to keep it in one task instead of taking it apart to several consecutive Execute SQL Tasks.
- I prefer to use the OLE DB connection manager because it's a de facto standard here.
Could anyone help me out with the following questions:
- Is the above possible?
- If so, how?
- If not, why not?
- If not, what would be the best way around this problem?
Hi I have one problem in SSIS for passing Variable Values while executing Package. I'm giving in details as below:
I opened Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Made Connection to Integration Services To Execute Package I Right Clicked and Click on Run Package Then I Clicked on Execute and package was executed successfully.
Problem is that if I try to Set Values then Package through Error DTExec: Could not set ProcessMode value to M.
Basically I could not understand in which format I should pass the Variables. What I tried is listed below:
ProcessMode;M Package.Variables[User:rocessMode].Value;M Package.Variables[ProcessMode].Value;M But every time I got errors.
And then I tried from Command Line DTEXEC /DTS "MSDBLoad_Order" /SERVER SERVERNAME /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING V /SET Package.Variables[ProcessMode].Value;M
First time Process run successfully. And it has changed the ProcessMode to M also. But after that it was also not changing the ProcessMode Value to M.
Please help in regarding. I tried a lot from Site examples also, but could not get proper solution.
I have a variable SYear with the data type Integer and the value 2005.
Connection type is OLE DB, and my sql statement is:
DECLARE @MyYear Int
SET @MyYear = ?
I have set the variable User::Syear as Input with the parameter name=0, there is no result set. I set BypassPrepare both True and False. However, this simple statement does not work. I keep having an error. If I put integer value directly into @MyYear, it is fine. What is wrong in here? Somebody help me!
I need help with some C# code. I have build a SSIS package with an Execute Process Task. I need to send dynamic variables in to my C# program so I thought it was a good idea to use the StandardInputVariable.
I need to use a variable as column in SQL statement in Execute SQL task of integration services. I am setting Parameter Setting to map variable use it in the query like; select ? , col1name from tablename. But its not working. Anybody having any idea; would be of great help.
How to define a Input variable in a Execute Sql Task?? I've defined a User::Inicio variable which contains 4 as value.
In Parameter Mappins it has been defined. Then, I've gone to General->Sql Statement and allocated the following SQL Statement: UPDATE CARGAPROCESOS SET FECHAULTIMACARGA = [Inicio] or UPDATE CARGAPROCESOS SET FECHAULTIMACARGA = [User::Inicio]
Anyway, I'm stuck, both did not work Thanks in advance for your comments
I've previous posted a message with error building the expression of the dtexec.exe string. But now, the problem is other, and I've decided to create other threat.
Here is what I'm doing: I've a SP that receives every parameter so I can build my dtexec.exe statement to be executed by a variable with something like this exec @rc = master.dbo.xp_cmdshell @CMD
Till now I have no problem executing it, not from a variable, but just with the statement itself, like this: exec master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'C:PROGRA~2MICROS~290DTSBINNDTEXEC.EXE /SQ PACKAGE /SET "Package.Variables[PERIOD].Value";20070101'.
But now, I have this SP that builds the string into a variable and then I just want to execute it throught the variable like this: exec @rc = master.dbo.xp_cmdshell @CMD.
When I make a SELECT @CMD just before the exec @rc = master.dbo.xp_cmdshell @CMD, so it prints the builded string, copy it and pasted to exec master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'copied string' it works fine. But the step of exec @rc = master.dbo.xp_cmdshell @CMD returns the error: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
Why is this, if I copy the generated string and execute it by the other way it works fine, but executing the generated string throught the variable it gives me that error?
I am getting an error message (mentioned below) in the variable mapping of Execute SQL Task in SSIS.
" Error: ForEach Variable Mapping number 9 to variable "User::Value" cannot be applied. "
" Error: The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::Value" differs from the current variable type. Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object. "
Pls anyone have a look and give me a solution asap.
I am designing an SSIS package and need to change the value of a DateTime global variable with the value returned from an Execute SQL task. The queary is as follows:
Select Versiondate = dateadd(dd,+1,Max(CreateDate)) from msdb..sysdtspackages p with(nolock) where name = '@name'
The error message is as follows:
SSIS package "Package.dtsx" starting.
Error: 0xC002F210 at VersionDate_Set, Execute SQL Task: Executing the query "Select Versiondate = dateadd(dd,+1,Max(CreateDate)) from msdb..sysdtspackages p with(nolock)
where name = '@name'" failed with the following error: "The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::VersionDate" differs from the current variable type. Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object.
". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
Task failed: VersionDate_Set
SSIS package "Package.dtsx" finished: Success.
The variable is set to data type DateTime, but the value will not change. Any ideas?
I've asked this question before and I've read the answers before and I still cannot get it to work. My task is simple, I want to use the execute sql task container to grab a value from a database and put it in a variable. I've done all the preliminary stuff such as running profiler to make sure that the package is getting the call to the database, setting up the ResultSet to be "single row" in the general tab, mapped the Result Set correctly, but nothing works. I get the same error every time.
This is my sql command:
select output_location as output_location from script_master
Result Set is set up like this:
Result Name: output_location ; Variable Name: User::output_location
Here is the error I get:
Error: 0xC002F309 at Execute SQL Task, Execute SQL Task: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "output_location": "The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::output_location" differs from the current variable type. Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object.
".
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I've followed all the instructions exactly on how to populate a variable in this container. My variable is set up as a string, if I change it to object I can get it to work. I think this is because the object is allowing nulls. I really believe that the variable is not populating and that is why I'm getting errors.
Please help. If you could provide step by step example's that would really make my day.
I am building this as an expression, but it is not working. I am trying to return the row count into a variable to use later in an update statement. What am I doing wrong? I am using a single row result set. I have one variable defined in my result set. I am receiving an error stating: Execute SQL Task: There is an invalid number of result bindings returned for the ResultSetType: "ResultSetType_SingleRow". Any help is appreciated!

Hi all, I'm working with Execute SQL task. Connection type: OLE DB. With the following settings, the task works fine:
Parameter mapping:
Code Snippet
Variable Name Direction Data type Parameter Name User::InputFile Input NVARCHAR 0 User::DesiredOutput Input NVARCHAR 1 SQLStatement:
Code Snippet
exec [spu_CreateOutput] ?, ?
However, I want to put in some conditions so I modified the task as:
Parameter mapping:
Code Snippet
Variable Name Direction Data type Parameter Name User::OutputFile Input NVARCHAR 0 User::InputFile Input NVARCHAR 1 User::DesiredOutput Input NVARCHAR 2
SQLStatement:
Code Snippet
if(? <> 'NotUsed') Begin exec [spu_CreateOutput] ?, ? End
But the modification doesn't work. The following message was thrown:
Error: 0xC002F210 at CREATE OUTPUT, Execute SQL Task: Executing the query "if(? <> 'NotUsed') Begin exec [spu_CreateOutput] ?, ? End " failed with the following error: "Syntax error, permission violation, or other nonspecific error". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly. Task failed: CREATE OUTPUT
Can anyone tell me what I have been wrong with it? It seems that parameter mapping can only apply for a single select statement/function/procedure call :-?
I cannot find the data type for parameter mapping from Execute SQL Task Editor to make this works.
1. Execute SQL Task 1 - select max(columnA) from tableA. ColumnA is varbinary(8); set result to variable which data type is Object.
2. Execute SQL Task 2 - update tableB set columnB = ? What data type should I use to map the parameter? I tried different data types, none working except GUI but it returned wrong result.
Does SSIS variable support varbinary data type? I know there's a bug issue with bigint data type and there's a work-around. Is it same situation with varbinary?
The SSIS Package deletes the current week's data, reloads it with fresh data, then calculates the difference between the current week and last week.
The problem is that randomly, instead of deleting the current week, it will delete the previous week. This happens maybe 5-10% of the time. At least it does until I rebuild the package and import it into SQL Server again.
I'm guessing that the Execute SQL Task is not updating the value of the Week variable before it executes. I started with the source type being a variable. Then I decided to try Direct input and pass in the Week as a parameter (OLE DB Connection Type). That didn't work either.
Most recently I tried writing the Week variable to a table first, then having a sequence container with all the tasks second. Slightly better but I still saw the date was wrong 2 times in about 90 executions. I was hoping that writing the Week variable out to the database would force an update of any associated connections to it, but that didn't seem to work.
I'm trying to use "findstr.exe" to extract some lines of interest from a data file, which I will later load to a table. I'd like to issue this form of a command:
findstr.exe "^SEARCHSTRING" "srcfile" > "dstfile"
I build the arguments using expressions, and both the search string and source file get correctly set. However, the ">" seems to be ignored--I can see the lines spitting out to the temporary window when I run under VS.
QUESTION: how do you redirect the output of a command run under an Execute Process Task?
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.
I've encountered a new problem with an SSIS Pkg where I have a seq. of Execute SQL tasks. My question are:
1) In the First Execute SQL Task, I want to store a single row result of @@identity type into a User Variable User::LoadID of What type. ( I tried using DBNull Type or Object type which works, not with any other type, it but I can't proceed to step 2 )
2) Now I want to use this User::LoadID as input parameter of What type for the next task (I tried using Numeric, Long, DB_Numeric, Decimal, Double none of there work).
In my ssis 2012 package, I have a 'object' type variable with some table like records. I want to do some SQL operations like insert/update on the records in another table based on this 'Object' type variable records. Basically I want to use a MERGE statement with another physical table with the records in the 'Object' type variable.how to map/use the Object type variable in Execute sql task.I am not good in script task. How to utilize this Object variable in a Execute sql task?
I am having a hard time setting the executable path for an Execute Process Task in SSIS. I have a variable that is initialized at package statup which holds the path to an executable in Windows. When I set the property "Executable" Path in an expression, I get a warning that the path for the executable is not set. One workaround was to try and initialize the variable with a bogus path with the hopes that the "correct" value will be written on run-time. NO LUCK. I still get the error and I cannot run the package until I put a static path.
