I want to move a DTS package from one server to a new server.
I know I can do a "Save as" and then redo all the different property settings once on the new server....but is there a way to do a Import/Export through the wizards ?
I tried this method, but was not able to choose a DTS package...only thing I was able to choose was database, tables, views, etc., but no DTS package.
Thanks for your insight
I have two servers running SQLserver 7.0. I have a number of DTS packages/jobs that are configured to import files each day. I do not want to recreate these packages on the second server, for it took quite sometime to set up only one. Can I copy these packages to my second server. Please help!

Hi All, I am new to SSIS and SQL Server. I have a development copy of SQL Server 2005 on my desktop, and have just completed my first SSIS package, which replaces an Access appplication that I have on our server. Now I want to move my package to one of our live SQL Server 2005 instalations on our Network. Is there an easy way to move the work I have done on my Development version? I guess that I will need to sort out security etc, but I am hoping not to have to re key everything I have done so far.

Hi,
I have a Users table in Oracle database and same table (Users) in SQL Server 2000 database. I want to create a DTS Package through which I can copy the data from Oracle database to SQL Server 2000 database. This package should run automatically at mid-night daily so that if there are some entries done in Oracle database then it get copied in SQL Server 2000 database. Also is there any way to copy only those entries from Oracle database which are not present in SQL Server 2000 database. Please help me in this regard as I am new to DTS.
Thanks

I will try to explain things the best I can.
When the data is transferred from source to destination (replace not append), the data in one field in one table is incorrect. Both source and destination tables have the same number of rows (8493). The ProductID field data range at the source is from 58958 to 73008. When the table is copied the ProductID field data runs from 1 to 8493.
What would cause this skewing of data?
This happens on brand new dtsx packages and this only happens in one field out of 5 different tables.
I am baffled. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
After I had transfered SSIS package to another PC I tried to open package and I got an error. ".. Failed to decrypt protected XML node "PackagePassword" with error . ".
It turned out, that the password wasn't saved in a OLEDB connection manager of the Package. However "save password" options checked!
But password field was empty.
As soos as I enter password the package executes successfully.
Question: How can I transfer a password for OLEDB Connection within a SSIS package to another developer's VS2005?
I am using transfer manager in SQL 6.5 to copy a database and
all objects with data to another server. Transfer manager is not recreating all stored procedures. This even happens when I used it to another database on the same server. Any ideas??
Is it possible/advisable when transfering very large amounts of data from server to server to:
trasnfer the data to a new table first
second alter new table adding indexes, defaults, ets based on original table
if it is what flow item would be used to transfer/alter the indexes and defaults?
I'm very new to ssis so the more detail you can give the better.
Thanks
Hello:
I have been trying to run transfer manager to transfer all of the data
from the production database on one server to a test database on another
server(to refresh it). In order to make sure it runs on the server, I have
been scheduling it under EM to do so and I am pointing to the log on the
destination server on the EM Transfer panel.
For some reason, I am getting the following message in the destination
server error log:
99/02/16 10:24:41.42 ods Error : 17824, Severity: 10, State: 0

99/02/16 10:24:41.42 spid17 A network error was encountered while sending
results to the front end. Check the SQL Server errorlog for more
information.
I checked the event viewer error log and see no messages for today.
Can any one advise me what I need to do for this to run successfully?
Thanks. Any information furnished will be greatly appreciated.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a corrupt master db due to a rogue script that inserted lots of information into it. I have two SQL servers, and I could use some advice on the best way to copy the files over to the second server, then back after a reload of the first server. My main concern is the DTS packages I have built- I can't afford to lose those.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHello. Firstly apologies for what might appear as a basic question, but being a newbie and all :-). .
I have a SQL 7 DB, loads of sp, vw, tables etc. I want to copy this DB to another server so that all the DB and sp permissions stay current, all the sql logins come across etc etc.
I have tried restoring a backup to the new server (which worked fine), but then I appear to have lost the permissions for the tables and sp's.
I have then tried taking a copy of the original SQL master table and restoring this to the new server - but no luck.
Can anyone advise a sure method of copying an entire table and related entries (meaning sql logins etc) to a new server.
Appreciate any comments.

Hi,
I created a package which passes some infornmations( through parameters) to its child package.
I need to do some processing in parent package based on execution status of child package.i.e.
if child fails then some operation and if child succeeds then other operation.
To determine the status of execution of child package I am using two differnt constraint ..one constraint is having value "Success" and other having value "Failure".
My problem is that when child packge is executed successfully the constraint with value = "Success" works properly but when child fails the constraint with value "Failure" does not work.
-Prashant
Hi,
I'd like to know if there's a way to pass parent package parameters to a package executed by SQL Server Job Agent? It appears that sp_start_job doesn't have any variable that could accomodate this.
Hope to hear your ideas.
Hi there
We have a SSIS run which runs as follows
The master package has a configuration file, specifying the connect strings
The master package passes these connect-strings to the child packages in a variable
Both master package and child packages have connection managers, setup to use localhost. This is done deliberately to be able to test the packages on individual development pc€™s.
We do not want to change anything inside the packages when deploying to test, and from test to production. All differences will be in the config files (which are pretty fixed, they very seldom change). That way we can be sure that we can deploy to production without any changes at all.
The package is run from the file system, through a job-schedule.
We experience the following when running on a not default sql-server instance (called dkms5253uedw)
Case 1:
The master package starts by executing three sql-scripts (drop foreign key€™s, truncate tables, create foreign key€™s). This works fine.
The master package then executes the first child package. We then in the sysdtslog get:
Error - €œcannot connect to database xxx€?
Info - €œpackage is preparing to get connection string from parent €¦€?
The child package then executes OK, does all it€™s work, and finish. Because there has been an error, the master package then stops with an error.
Case 2:
When we run exactly the same, but with the connection strings in the config file pointing to the default instance (dkms5253), the everything works fine.
Case 3:
When we run exactly the same, again against the dkms5253uedw instance, but now with the exact same databases defined in the default instance, it also works perfect.
Case 4:
When we then stop the sql-server on the default instance, the package faults again, this time with
Error - €œtimeout when connect to database xxx€?
Info - €œpackage is preparing to get connection string from parent €¦€?
And the continues as in the first case
From all this we conclude, that the child package tries to connect to the database before it knows the connection string it gets passed in the variable from the master package. It therefore tries to connect to the default instance, and this only works if the default instance is running and has the same databases defined. As far as we can see, the child package does no work against the default instance (no logging etc.).
We have tried delayed validation in the packages and in the connection managers, but with the same results (error).
So we are desperately hoping that someone can help us solve this problem.
Thanx,

Hi
We are planning to upgrade from sql server 7 to sql server 2000.The sql server 2000 will be installed on another server.
If we have to move back from sql server 2000 to sql server 7 (if there are any problems on sql server 2000).is there a way to do it?
Is there a way to restore the changes made on sql server 2000 to 7?
Thanks

I am replacing a server so I need to migrate everything. The old server is running SQL2000 and the new server is running SQL2005. I am trying to write an SSIS solution to migrate everything for me and I can't even get started because I get the error "The source server can not be the same as the destination server". At the same time I am changing the name of the Domain so the two machines arenot even members of the same Domain. I am doing this over the Internet so the machines are not even on the same subnet. The only thing I can think of is that the machine names are the same so even though the domains are different therefore the full names are different, the NetBIOS names are the same. Could that be the problem?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi!
I have two servers. Server A and Server B Both the servers are in different domains and both have different names.
Server A runs a clustered sql server (sql 2005 standard sp1)
Server B also runs a clustered sql server (sql 2005 enterprise sp1)
Both server A and Server B has same virtual server name X.
So, when I try to copy all the logins from server A to Server B using Transfer Login task in ssis, I gert the following error-
"Source Server Can not be same as destination server"
I am using IP addresses to connect to both the servers.
How do i solve this issue now?
Thanks
Hi
I think I must operate a similar system to the rest of you here, where I have a Shared SQL Server Database on the web for my website and since I cant afford the full SQL Server to develop on I'm developing on the MSDE that comes with VS.net(I think thats where I got it longtime ago). Anyway my point is since in the database project on VS.net I cant generate Create Table SQL Code against MSDE, Apparently you need the full SQL Server to do that. Whats the best way for me to transfer any changes from my dummy development database to my production database on a real SQL Server.
Any help would be appreciated I'm still rather new to SQL Server(been using cheap MySQL) so could do with some pointers.
Thanks

Hi,
I have several databases on one MSQL Server which I want to transfer to new server. So, basically it is tranferring all contents of sql server databases on one server to another one. I know I can use import Wizard, but it will take long time, is there a more better way to do this.
Thanks,

We will migrate our SQL 7.0 databases into SQL 2000 on another server. Since I have hundreds of DTS packages on my Repository, is there a better way of transferring to the other server's Repository then ... Package -> Save As -> choose server and location etc,etc...?
Thanks, Suat.

Hi,
I am new to the database concepts, maybe my questions are very basic.
I transfered data from one sql server to another thru object/database transfer. The transfer was successful, ie.,
all the data was present in the new server too. I am using an application with ASP as front end and SQL server 6.5 as back end.
So i am able to all new records, delete them, update them thru my ASP programs. But, i am not able to update the records
which where transfered from the old server. I hope some one of can help me, as i said earlier i am new to databases,
so give me a detailed solution.
Thanks,

Please give me a direction where to go to solve this problem...
our organization regularly pumps data from an AS/400 database (db2) to SQL Server 7 tables with the help of DTS. Some of the data transfers are straight column copy and several are ActiveX transformations. Also, we've got some of the transformations defined directly inside the select statement in the Source tab of the DTS designer. There is one stored procedure which collects and does computations with the data to put into a number of Excel reports. The strange thing is that some of the data seems to be getting corrupted somehow as it is transferred, because the resulting data in sql server is not identical to that which was transferred. We get outrageously high values for one of the columns with no apparent pattern. There are no error log entries for this, and we've already confirmed that all the transformation scripts and stored procedure functions that we've been using are correct. Would doing a server trace be of any help, and if so what should I be looking for and could you just brief me on how to start one, since I've never had the need to do one so far. Thanks for the help in advance.
Does anyone know of a script that will transfer a 6.5 database on server "A"
to a 7.0 database on server "B". Currently I am using Microsoft Access to
export the 6.5 data and the import to a 7.0 server database. The problem with
this technique is that the field NULL settings are changed and the primary key
settings are changed.
Thanks,
