URGENT: Obtaining Actual Name Of ErrorColumn Instead Of Its LineageID.
Mar 21, 2007
Hi,
In a dataflow, I've an OLE DB source before a script component.
When I link the Red Output of the source to the script component, I want to get the COLUMN NAME (which is the source of error), instead of the default ErrorColumn (LineageID). I'm not able to succeed with the following code snippet.
My code is something like this:
Dim temp_Int_EmpID As Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper.IDTSInputColumn90
temp_Int_EmpID = Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper.IDTSInputColumnCollection90.GetInputColumnByLineageID(Row.ErrorColumn)
Pls. let me know if it's possible to achieve what I require & if so, how.
I have a view in SQLServer 2005. It took 30 sec. to finish. Then I deleted 4500 records from one table that is used in view. It took 90 sec. to finish now. I did a comparison on Actual Execution Plan between before I deleted data and after I deleted data, they are almost same, only different is Actual Number Rows become less after deleted data. So, I wonder why data become less but time become more. When I look closely on the Actual Execution Plan, the ridiculous thing is, there are only Estimated Operation Cost on each step, no Actual Operation Cost. I guess there are something wrong with optimizer because reuse same Execution Plan, but how can I tell which step wrong without Actual Operation Cost.
How to find the actual column name of error column? The error output has ErrorColumn parameter but it is the number ( i.e 11219).. how can I convert it to the actual column name in the table?
SSIS automatically adds the columns ErrorCode and ErrorColumn to the error pipe routing bad rows. However, both these columns appear to be meaningless. We need to translate the error column to the actual problem column and the error code to a meaningful error. ErrorColumn is the more important issue for us. The question is 'Are these just useless columns? If not, how do we translate them into something useful?'
Iam redirecting the error output of a OLEDB destination component to a script component. My aim is to create a HTML report having the information about the bad records, the error occuring in the rows and the column name that fails. The error output provided two new columns i.e the errorcode and errorcolumn , the errorcolumn value for a bad record gives the linage id for the column, is there a way to derieve the name of the column by using the lineage id?
The problem is, ErrorColumn contains ID. Is the following code reference safe ? columnname = Me.ComponentMetaData.InputCollection.FindObjectByID(Row.ErrorColumn).Name
Is there any possibility for FindObjectByID to return NULL Reference in any case ?
I'm sorry for asking this, as I'm sure tha the answer is in one of the 208 matches I found searching on "ErrorCode". Unfortunately, this project is overdue and I need a solution fairly soon.
I should add that I've only been developing in SSIS since August 2007.
I have a complicated package, loading about 17 outputs of the XML Source into staging tables. I have been using the error outputs of any standard components I use, out of faith that, if Microsoft provided them, then they should be useful for something. I've been directing all of the error outputs for one of the 17 "tables" from the XML Source into a Union All, and then into an "Error staging table", for each of the 17 outputs. This table includes all of the possible columns, but permits nulls for all of them. It also incldues the ErrorCode and ErrorColumn.
Unfortunately, if these latter two are useful for anyting, I haven't found it yet.
Right now, working with our first "mostly real" data, I'm getting 100% of my input rows written into error tables. Unfortunately, the information in the tables are of limited use in determining what went wrong. For instance, the ErrorColumn seems only to be populated if there was a specific error with a specific column. The Lookup component, doesn't seem to populate ErrorColumn, even if only one column was used for the lookup! No information about the component producing the error output is supplied in the error output, either, which makes it difficult to determine which of the five or so possible error outputs is the one that produced the particular error row.
This proves that I'm missing something simple. How do people handle errors? In my custom components, I learned to use the Fire* methods to produce detailed messages before redirecting the row to the error output, but this sort of thing is not available through the standard components.
Do I really have to create a separate "add useful information to the error output" component, and use it on each error output?
Sorry for the attitude, but just when I think I'm winning, SSIS brings me back down to earth!
Let's say I need to be able to dynamically retrieve the last record in a table (ChData) in order to be able to continuously monitor the flow of data. Since theoretically there is no such thing defined in SQL, let's say I have an index column - ChTimestamp - (which, for some odd reason, is a DOUBLE), which grows monotonically. Thus, I want the row with the largest ChTimestamp value. The data columns would be Ch0, Ch1, and so on. Let's also assume that for some reason I am limited to using the LabVIEW database connectivity toolkit and because of that, I don't have full use of the SELECT statement but I have to supply the table and column names for the "SELECT FROM " and only the WHERE and the like predicates can be freely specified (I don't know how freely). What would be an elegant query to achieve the desired result? Thanks! Kamen
Hi, I'm new to these forums (and to SQL Server), so please be gentle with me.
I am developing a process to obtain information on all our remote servers/databases, and store it in a single local database. I'm after things like db size, last backup date, free drive space etc...the usual weekly statistics.
I've linked the remote servers to my local one, and have written a few simple procedures (which exist on the local server) to grab backup and file size information from the remote tables. The output is stored locally in tables which we can then query as necessary.
I am having difficulty obtaining the free drive space details. I'm using :- 'exec <remote_server>.master.dbo.xp_fixeddrives' to get the info, but I cannot store the output in a table on the local server. (remote_server_name, date, drive_letter, space_mb)
I wish to avoid creating any objects on the remote servers if at all possible. I really want to pass the remote server name into the procedure, and the output to be inserted into the table.
I need to obtain the path to the master DB in a Wise install script. I know that for SQL2K it is in the registry key: HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftMSSQLServerSetup
It seems that a SQL2005 installation does not have the same default directory.
Is there a way to query this from the server itself so I don't have to read the registry?
I'll be working on a web project that utilizes sql server 2005. Our web host will be providing the server however I'll need a version of Sql Server 2005 management studio to work with it.
I believe the studio software costs around $50 however the express edition software is free.
So my question is, is the express edition software compatible with the full version of sql server 2005 or only sql server 2005 express edition?
In MS SQL 2000, I would like to obtain the timezone offset from UTC fora given date. For today's date, I can doDATEDIFF(ss,GETDATE(),GETUTCDATE()). However, the offset for a futuredate may not be the same as today because some countries go in DaylightSaving mode. Can you suggest a way to obtain the timezone offset forany given date?ThanksYash
Is there a way to query a SQL server such that it will return thecurrent counter value of a field that increments automatically (anidentity field)? Using a MAX query might not necessarily give you thecorrect information because it is possible that the high value recordswere deleted. I checked the system tables and none of them appear tohave what I need. I suppose it would be possible to maintain a tablethat lists all the incrementing columns, but ideally there would be away already built into SQL Server.Thanks.

I am not sure about how to achieve the last column. I hope u understand what exactly is expected. The idea is that, one should be able to track how a particular table was manipulate; whether it was manipulated using procedure or SSIS package or manually. Could someone help me achieving this?
By using DBCC Page I am able to exemine data entered to row and other changes related to the rows. What I want to know is; is it possible to find out (and how) which Login ID commited these change directly from pages or where do I need to look to find it out?
Hi All,I'm having a bit of a problem with a c# program which creates and index file/table. The number of records I need to process is around 3500, the main loop. Each of thoes records I need to look at a 2 text fields and create an entry in an index table for each valid word found in thoes fields. I call a stored proc to save the key word. So this stored proc get called numerous time per record.What seems to be happening is proceese about 400 main rcords the errors out with the following error message: {"Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was reached." }Has anyone had a similar problem? if so any suggestions on how to fix, I've been looking at this problem and recoding for the last 4 days! I need some help! Using SQL Server 2000 & .net v1.1Thanks in advance Davej
Hi I've been doing a website with ajax controls and I have tables that has foreign key relationships and hence the main page requires the data from the tables from the foreign keys stored in a separate table. Can anyone help me out with the proper way of querying the tables. Am not able to work out the way with the joins that SQL express provides. Thanks
I'm hoping someone can shed some light on a reliable way to get Reporting Services if you don't have an MSDN subscription.
I have registered copies of SQL Server 2000 Developer and SQL Server 2000 Standard that I bought late last year.
I've had a backorder with MS Parts since January to get updated CDs with Reporting Services on them. Each month, the back order is pushed up another month. The disks are now due sometime in late May. I called the fulfillment center and the operator end didn't seem too enthusiastic about it coming in stock anytime soon.
All 3 versions (Developer, Standard, and Enterprise) are on a long back-order.
I thought I could get by temporarily by using the 90-day trial copy of Reporting Services, but I'm now concerned it might run out before I get my own non-trial version.
Isn't there a way for legit users to get a hold of this product? I'd be happy to download it, but it's not available unless I want to pay add'l money for an MSDN subscription.
I have quite a few DTS's to work through while analysing current SQL databases for a client. Problem is I can't seem to find a way in SQL (Enterprise Manager) to print the contents of a DTS package. This is quite frustrating in that I have to go an "Design" the package, then click on the properties for each step and copy and paste the contents into Notepad/Wordpad. Surely Microsoft have something to ease the pain?
If anyone can help me on this one, I would be extremely grateful.
I need to lock a table in SQL Server. The reason is that I need to insert a value into an identity column (rather than just taking the next sequence number). I have a program that:
1. Sets identity insert on 2. Inserts into the table 3. Sets identity insert off
The problem is that I believe I should lock the table before I turn identity insert on (otherwise, other transactions will fail). I need to ensure that no other operations will take place on the table while I am doing all three of these steps.
I believe I can set the isolation level, but I cannot find any way to establish the lock without executing the update statement itself - which is a nanosecond too late to prevent another user from getting an error.
I've been having some strange problems lately upon connecting to SQL Server via the Enterprise Manager, or via MS Access. The response time is MUCH slower than usual. The only change I'm aware of is that additional drives were added to the server.
At any rate, when logging in to Access my login (not my query) times out. I get SQL State: S1T00; SQL Server Error: 0; MS ODBC SQL Server Driver: Timeout Expired.
I'm not sure where to begin to troubleshoot this. The version of SQL Server ODBC driver I have is 2.65.0252. Perhaps this one is corrupt. How would I ascertain what the latest version is? And, if it's appropriate to replace it, how do I go about it? Is it a simple overwrite of the file?
I want to know how to obtain the relationships of foreing keys when they have diferent names in diferent tables using SQL querys from VB.net in SQL Server 2000.
Dear GroupSorry for posting this here. I'm desperate for a solution to thisproblem and thought some of you might have come across it with .NETand SQL Server.Let's assume I've the following code:Private Sub Button4_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e AsSystem.EventArgs) Handles Button4.ClickDim sqlConnection As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionsqlConnection.ConnectionString = "workstation id=THEINTREPIDFOX;packetsize=4096;user id=sa;data source=""(local)"";p" & _"ersist security info=False;initial catalog=TestDB"sqlConnection.Open()sqlConnection.Close()sqlConnection = NothingEnd SubWhen I click 100 times on the button the page finally times out with:Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining aconnection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooledconnections were in use and max pool size was reached.Of course I could increase the max pool size but this isn't thesolution to this problem. I wonder what's wrong with my code?According to MSDN, if the connection is closed it's released back intothe pool. Also tried to dispose but nothing helps. It looks like thatit keeps connections and doesn't release them. I'm grateful for anyhints, ideas, suggestions on this problem as I'm very desperate tosolve this.Thanks very much for your time & efforts!Martin
I really need some help here! I have spent the last few days upgrading a clients system to SQL 2005, part of which involved upgrading their sales people's laptops to Sql 2005 Express and setting up Merge Replication. I have configured the Server to use Web Synchronisation, and have tested that the replisapi.dll?diag all works ok and it does.
I am running into problems now with getting the laptops to synchronise. I have set up the Replication task, and am getting an error when I run the Wndows Synchroniser:
====================
The schema script '\PTC42ParklandsWebsiteV2ftpPTC42_PARKLANDS_PARKLANDS20060812131209' could not be propagated to the subscriber.
The process could not connect to FTP site 'mail.parklands.net' using port 21.
A connection with the server could not be established ==============
I have tested independantly connecting to the FTP server using Windows explorer and it works fine using the same username and password. I am at a loss here!!! I am going in circles looking for help too as there doesnt seem to be much info on this in SQL 2005 yet. I have re-read all the books online articles for Replication, Replication in SQL 2005 Express, and also gone back & reset up the Server & the Client several times - with no luck!
The client needs to get these sales guys laptops back ASAP and I am starting to really stress out here!! (can you tell I havent had much sleep in the last few days??) Any help would be so wonderfully apreciated!!!
Is there any way to get the new identity values created after an OLE DB Destination has finished its inserts?
Basically my problem is this...
My source database has its primary and foreign key columns as a GUID datatype. In my conversion, my destination database will be using INT (identity) columns for primary/foreign keys. How do I propagate the foreign key relationships to the destination database in an SSIS package? So obviously I can use an OLE DB Destination to generate the data with identities for the parent table, but after that I am stuck in how to create the relationships for the child tables.
I know how to do this in TSQL fairly easily (cursor or temp tables), but it doesn't seem so simple in SSIS.
Hi, I want to be able to spot when the same employee name gets added to my grid. This is to ensure that I cannot not have the same firstname and lastname (i.e. cannot have 2 John Smiths). It is kind of like spoting for duplicates but they are not PKs. I was hoping if there was a way you could identify the the feild values on the "inserting" event of the datasource so I could put some logic in. The reason for placing it there is because we have the e.cancel = true command. Thanks in advance, Jon
Morning All,Can I have some help with this one please, I am having to make a fixed length text file based on information from the DBDeclare @EDIString varchar(MAX)Declare @RecordType varchar(2)Declare @RegistrationMark varchar(7)Declare @Model_Chassis varchar(11)Declare @LocationCode Varchar(4)Declare @MovementDate varchar(8)Declare @IMSAccountCode varchar(5)Declare @MovementType varchar(8)Declare @NotUsed1 Varchar(28)Declare @NotUsed2 varchar(7)Select @RecordType = RecordType, @RegistrationMark = RegistrationMark, @Model_Chassis = Model_And_Chassis, @LocationCode = LocationCode, @MovementDate = MovementDate, @IMSAccountCode = IMSAccountCode, @Movementtype = MovementTypeCode from Fiat_OutBoundOnce I have selected the information from the DB I need to ensure that each field is the correct length. I therefore want to pass the variable and the length of the variable into a function to return the correct length.So if location Code = 'AB' this needs to be four characters long so want to pass it into a function and return 'AB 'As I need to do this for 70+ variables is there an easy way to obtain the length of the collation for the variable?regardsTom
How do I get the values of a column from a table separated by a comma.
