I've created a user variable but when I'm going through its variable collections for that TaskHost appears all the system users but not mine.
Why??
?th.variables.count
26
When I have 27 including the mine.
Precedence Constraint Editor Values:
Expression Operation: Expression and Constraint
Value: Failure
Expression: @GotRecs == 1
Radio button: Logical AND. All contraints must evaluate to True
Stored Procedure has an IF (that contains a SELECT) statement that checks for records if no records are returned processing stops. I SET the parameter after the BEGIN that follows the IF statement.
The step that contains the above code is step #3. I placed the constraint between step #3 and step #4 (Data Flow task) just Exports to a Flat File.
When I clicked the TEST button in the Precedence Constraint Editor I got the following msg:
Error at Constraint 3: The variable €śGotRecs€? was not found in the variables collection. The variable might not exist in the correct scope.
All,
We are experiencing some problems when running the same package on multiple threads of a C# application concurrently. The package instances seem to share a Dts.Variables collection.
I have created a test application and package to reproduce the issue. The package is very simple. It has two variables - Instance (Int32) and Content (string). The test application runs two concurrent threads that run through 25 iterations running the package. Each thread loads the package, sets the instance, and then runs the package. The package then takes the instance, sticks it in the Content variable and then writes it to a file called "FileX" where X is the Instance. Thread 1 sets the instance from 1 to 25, thread 2 sets it from 26 to 50. The test execution results in about 15% of the files containing the incorrect "instance content". That is, I'll see "42" in the file named "File14", or something along those lines. This tells me that the variables are being overwritten.
I ran another test where I created a copy of the package, so the code is identical, but the VersionGUID is different. Running the thread test application always succeeds. There is no file name/content mismatch. I then ran another test where I manually edit the XML of the package to change the VersionGUID before the package is loaded (by calling LoadFromXml). Again this never fails.
Changing the VersionGUID may work for us, but it is a total hack. Has anyone else experienced this or have any other solutions? Any thoughts on manually updating the VersionGUID to get around this problem? I hate doing this, but we are getting desperate.
Thanks in advance,
Rob
As far as I can make out it is not possible to access the variables collection from a custom log provider.
I'm interested to know what the rationale for this is. Why aren't the variables available for logging purposes?
Thanks

Hello, I am trying to configure a Script Component as a data source. Although this should be a simple exercise, I am running into a problem.
My control flow contains a Foreach Loop with a file iterator. The Directory Expression of the Foreach Loop Editor is supplied by an expression mapped to a package level variable called inputdirectory. The FileNameRetrieval Expression is mapped to a package scoped variable called filename.
My data flow is encapsulated by the Foreach Loop, and contains a Script Component as Source for the Data Flow Source, and a Flat File for the Data Flow Destination. The contents of the Script Designer are as follows:
Code Block
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Math
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper
Imports System.IO
Public Class ScriptMain
Inherits UserComponent
Dim thisFileDate As Date
Dim thisFileName As String
Dim thisFilePath As String
Public Overrides Sub CreateNewOutputRows()
thisFileName = ReadOnlyVariables("filename").Value.ToString()
thisFilePath = ReadOnlyVariables("inputdirectory").Value.ToString()
thisFileDate = File.GetCreationTime(thisFilePath & "" & thisFileName)
FileSpecBuffer.AddRow()
FileSpecBuffer.FileName = thisFileName
FileSpecBuffer.FullPath = thisFilePath & "" & thisFileName
FileSpecBuffer.CreateDate = thisFileDate
End Sub
End Class
When I debug the package, I get the following error:
The collection of variables locked for read access is not available at this point.
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponent.get_ReadOnlyVariables()
at ScriptComponent_67311120e6eb4162a3ea1f70847f04de.ScriptMain.CreateNewOutputRows()
at ScriptComponent_67311120e6eb4162a3ea1f70847f04de.UserComponent.PrimeOutput(Int32 Outputs, Int32[] OutputIDs, PipelineBuffer[] Buffers)
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponentHost.PrimeOutput(Int32 outputs, Int32[] outputIDs, PipelineBuffer[] buffers)
My googlefu fails me at reconciling this. I have read various posts about changing the line ReadOnlyVariables("filename").Value to ReadWriteVariables("filename").Value, and handling the buffer assignment in PostExecute. The problem is that all examples shown are either for Script Component as Destination or Script Component as Transformation. I have tried playing with the Custom Properties in the Script Commponent set the ReadOnlyVariables and ReadWriteVariables, using a PreExecute method, a PostExecute method, all with different errors returning. I'm at a loss here. Could anybody provide me with a simple working example so that I can correctly populate my output buffer in the context of Script Component as Source?
I fully understand that I could just run a Script Task Using System.IO.Directory, and System.IO.File, but I really want to make this package work in the manner I've described. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
John T
I'm new to SSIS, but have been programming in SQL and ASP.Net for several years. In Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition I've created an SSIS that imports data from a flat file into the database. The original process worked, but did not check the creation date of the import file. I've been asked to add logic that will check that date and verify that it's more recent than a value stored in the database before the import process executes.
Here are the task steps.
[Execute SQL Task] - Run a stored procedure that checks to see if the import is running. If so, stop execution. Otherwise, proceed to the next step.
[Execute SQL Task] - Log an entry to a table indicating that the import has started.
[Script Task] - Get the create date for the current flat file via the reference provided in the file connection manager. Assign that date to a global value (FileCreateDate) and pass it to the next step. This works.
[Execute SQL Task] - Compare this file date with the last file create date in the database. This is where the process breaks. This step depends on 2 variables defined at a global level. The first is FileCreateDate, which gets set in step 3. The second is a global variable named IsNewFile. That variable needs to be set in this step based on what the stored procedure this step calls finds out on the database. Precedence constraints direct behavior to the next proper node according to the TRUE/FALSE setting of IsNewFile.
If IsNewFile is FALSE, direct the process to a step that enters a log entry to a table and conclude execution of the SSIS.
If IsNewFile is TRUE, proceed with the import. There are 5 other subsequent steps that follow this decision, but since those work they are not relevant to this post.
Here is the stored procedure that Step 4 is calling. You can see that I experimented with using and not using the OUTPUT option. I really don't care if it returns the value as an OUTPUT or as a field in a recordset. All I care about is getting that value back from the stored procedure so this node in the decision tree can point the flow in the correct direction.
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[p_CheckImportFileCreateDate]
/*
The SSIS package passes the FileCreateDate parameter to this procedure, which then compares that parameter with the date saved in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate.
If the date is newer (or if there is no date), it updates the field in that table and returns a TRUE IsNewFile bit value in a recordset.
Otherwise it returns a FALSE value in the IsNewFile column.
Example:
exec p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', '2/27/2008 9:24 AM', 0
*/
@ProcessName varchar(50)
, @FileCreateDate datetime
, @IsNewFile bit OUTPUT
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
--DECLARE @IsNewFile bit
DECLARE @CreateDateInTable datetime
SELECT @CreateDateInTable = FileCreateDate FROM tbl_ImportFileCreateDate WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName
IF EXISTS (SELECT ProcessName FROM tbl_ImportFileCreateDate WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName)
BEGIN
-- The process exists in tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. Compare the create dates.
IF (@FileCreateDate > @CreateDateInTable)
BEGIN
-- This is a newer file date. Update the table and set @IsNewFile to TRUE.
UPDATE tbl_ImportFileCreateDate
SET FileCreateDate = @FileCreateDate
WHERE ProcessName = @ProcessName
SET @IsNewFile = 1
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- The file date is the same or older.
SET @IsNewFile = 0
END
END
ELSE
BEGIN
-- This is a new process for tbl_ImportFileCreateDate. Add a record to that table and set @IsNewFile to TRUE.
INSERT INTO tbl_ImportFileCreateDate (ProcessName, FileCreateDate)
VALUES (@ProcessName, @FileCreateDate)
SET @IsNewFile = 1
END
SELECT @IsNewFile
The relevant Global Variables in the package are defined as follows:
Name : Scope : Date Type : Value
FileCreateDate : (Package Name) : DateType : 1/1/2000
IsNewFile : (Package Name) : Boolean : False
Setting the properties in the "Execute SQL Task Editor" has been the difficult part of this. Here are the settings.
General

CodePage = 1252
ResultSet = None
ConnectionType = OLE DB
Connection = MyServerDataBase
SQLSourceType = Direct input
IsQueryStoredProcedure = False
BypassPrepare = True
I tried several SQL statements, suspecting it's a syntax issue. All of these failed, but with different error messages. These are the 2 most recent attempts based on posts I was able to locate.
SQLStatement = exec ? = dbo.p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output
SQLStatement = exec p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output
Parameter Mapping
Variable Name = User::FileCreateDate, Direction = Input, DataType = DATE, Parameter Name = 0, Parameter Size = -1
Variable Name = User::IsNewFile, Direction = Output, DataType = BYTE, Parameter Name = 1, Parameter Size = -1
Result Set is empty.
Expressions is empty.
When I run this in debug mode with this SQL statement ...
exec ? = dbo.p_CheckImportFileCreateDate 'GL Account Import', ?, ? output
... the following error message appears.

This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.

When the above is run tbl_ImportFileCreateDate does not get updated, so it's failing at some point when calling the procedure.
When I run this in debug mode with this SQL statement ...

... the tbl_ImportFileCreateDate table gets updated. So I know that data piece is working, but then it fails with the following message.

SSIS package "MyPackage.dtsx" finished: Failure.
The IsNewFile global variable is scoped at the package level and has a Boolean data type, and the Output parameter in the stored procedure is defined as a Bit. So what gives?
The "Possible Failure Reasons" message is so generic that it's been useless to me. And I've been unable to find any examples online that explain how to do what I'm attempting. This would seem to be a very common task. My suspicion is that one or more of the settings in that Execute SQL Task node is bad. Or that there is some cryptic, undocumented reason that this is failing.
Thanks for your help.
If I load up a local variable defined as varchar(MAX) with a 10,000-character continuous string, i.e. '123456789.....100000' the variable retains the full value as expected. However, if I break that string up into '123456789....5000' + '5001...10000', the variable is truncated at 8000 characters.
Is there a way around this?
Thanks.

Hello to all,
I hope that somebody can help me.
I have written a sql query to search Partner. I have a wtcomValidRelationships Table. There are two Fields (IDMember(type: Int) and RelationshipIDs(type: varchar(1000)) in this table.
Example: 3418 has 3422 RelationshipID and 3422 has 4088 RelationshipID, if i want to check if there is a relationship between 3418 and 4088.
declare @IDM int;
declare @IDO char(100);
set @IDM = 3418;
set @IDO = '4088';
select B.IDMember
from wtcomValidRelationships as A, wtcomValidRelationships as B
where A.IDMember = @IDM and charindex(cast(B.IDMember as char(100)),A.RelationshipIDS) > 0
and charindex(@IDO,B.RelationshipIDs) > 0
Using this query i get nothing.
I try to use constant in charindex and i get result.
declare @IDM int;
declare @IDO char(100);
set @IDM = 3418;
set @IDO = '4088';
select B.IDMember
from wtcomValidRelationships as A, wtcomValidRelationships as B
where A.IDMember = @IDM and charindex('3422',A.RelationshipIDS) > 0
and charindex('4088',B.RelationshipIDs) > 0
So i think that charindex doesn't work with variable. But I must use variable. Can someone help me? What should i do ?
Thanks

I am writing some functions that work on a time series database of prices, ie volatility, correlation. I need to use the SELECT TOP syntax, but cannot do this with a variable, ie 'SELECT @x TOP * from prices'. My solution is to simply have a function for each potential period that will be looked at - 30day_volatility, 60day_volatility, etc. I looked at setting the ROWCOUNT variable but this is not allowed in functions. I haven't posted any DDL because I think the question is general enough - How do I return n ordered rows from a function without using SELECT TOP, or is there a way to use SELECT TOP with a variable that I am not aware of.
Thanks!
Dear All.
I'm a fairly new SQL programmer so apologies if this is a silly question.
I'm trying to create a new column/variable from 3 other variables where the new column = column 1 unless column 1 is blank, then = column 2, unless column 2 is blank, then = column 3.
But I don't know where in my query to begin building this. Should I build it in a subquery? Thanks in advance for any replies.
I want to create a SP that creates a new database, so I script-ed out the db and paste the script into new SP gui (SQL 2000). I want to pass it a variable for the data/log file location that is not the default location. The original script looks like this:
CREATE DATABASE [PWRR_DDS] ON (NAME = N'PWRR_DDS_Data', FILENAME = N'F:SQL SERVER FILESDatabasesdbName.mdf' , SIZE = 3118, FILEGROWTH = 10%) LOG ON (NAME = N'PWRR_DDS_Log', FILENAME = N'F:SQL SERVER FILESDatabasesdbName_Log.LDF' , SIZE = 5000, FILEGROWTH = 10%) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS.
I replaced the path of the FILENAME variable like this:
CREATE DATABASE [PWRR_DDS] ON (NAME = N'PWRR_DDS_Data', FILENAME = @DBPath, SIZE = 5000, FILEGROWTH = 10%) LOG ON (NAME = N'PWRR_DDS_Log', FILENAME = @LogPath , SIZE = 5000, FILEGROWTH = 10%) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS,
declaring the variables as char(500). The error I get is "Incorrect sybtax near '@DBPath'.
Any ideas for workaround?
Thanks,

Has someone managed to pass successfully a variable from a parent package to a child package? I€™ve tried a zillion permutations and I can€™t get it to work. The strange thing was that I was able to successfully do this with pre-RTM builds. Basically, what I am trying to do is:
The parent package has a variable, e.g. ExecutionID which I set using a script to System::ExecutionInstanceGUID. I verified that the variable is set correctly by dumping it to a SQL Server table.
I created a child package variable with the same name.
In the child package, I€™ve created a parent package configuration that points to the ExecutionID variable.
I am trying to read the variable in a Derived Column Task in which I have a column linked to @ExecutionID.
This doesn€™t work. Step-by-step instructions from someone who managed to concur this will be greatly appreciated.
Oh, I didn€™t have any luck hitting a breakpoint in a script task inside a child package with both in and out of process execution also.

As pointed out in the SQL Express blog recently http://blogs.msdn.com/sqlexpress/archive/2006/11/15/sql-express-sp2-and-windows-vista-uac.aspx (look for the section that starts "Watch out!"), the SQL Express SP2 argument ADDUSERASADMIN will not work correctly if the user is a normal user. If the user is a member of the BUILTINAdministrators group then Vista will prompt to elevate them to allow the Admin rights to be effective.
However, my reading of the blog post is that if they are normal users, Vista will prompt for the Administrator credentials. This effectively runs the install as the Administrator user. So the ADDUSERASADMIN argument works, but adds the Administrator rather than the normal user.
This is not what I need to happen. Is there any way around this? I have a ClickOnce application. Is there any way to restrict the ClickOnce install to require the user to be a member of the BUILTINAdministrator group?
Thanks.

Hi all
I have a DTS package that users of the database can run which basically acts like a 'live update' (as the database is based on a values produced from another system) and it takes roughly 30 or so seconds to run...
The dts package is not going to have a particularly large hit rate but i am interested in knowing what will happen if a user (user 1) attempts to run the package when it is in already in use by another user (user 2) ?
The dts package is from a sp using the dtsrun utility (passes in global variables).
I know that a second DTS will start before the first has finished but what i am not sure about is what will happen to the Global Variables when the second DTS package starts - i.e. will starting a second instance of the package with different variables have an effect on the first DTS's global variables while it is running?
I hope the answer is "No Tom, it work fine!"
What I want to do is return a row of data when my query doesn't return a record. I have two tables:
CREATE TABLE dbo.abc(
SeqNo smallint NULL,
Payment decimal(10, 2) NULL
) ON PRIMARY
[Code] ....
So when I run the following query:
SELECT 'abc' + '-' + CAST(SeqNo AS VARCHAR) + '-' + CAST(Payment AS VARCHAR) FROM abc WHERE SeqNo = 1
UNION
SELECT 'def' + '-' + CAST(SeqNo AS VARCHAR) + '-' + CAST(Payment AS VARCHAR) FROM def WHERE SeqNo = 1
abc-1-200.00
abc-1-500.00
As you can see since 1 doesn't exists in table 'def' nothing is returned as expected. However, if a row isn't returned I want to be able to enter my own row such as
abc-1-200.00
abc-1-500.00
def-0-0.00

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've looked all over but can't find a solid answer. I've got afunction that runs from a View and when the function runs the firsttime it is calculating a Temperature for a group of Formulas.

On everyexecution after that I'd like to use the value stored so I don't haveto recalculate the value again for the specific group defined.I've looked at storing the data in a table from the UDF but UDF'sdon't support dynamic SQL statements and can't run a stored procedure.The key here is we have a view that calls a UDF (user-definedfunction).

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy derived column transformation with a user variable expression displays the user variable's default and not its assignned value.
Background: I built a script component that seems to effectively assign a new value to a user variable. I use local variables within the component, make the assignment in the PostExecute subroutine, and check by writing the user variable to a messagebox there.
In the derived column transformation I create a new column and insert the user variable in its expression field, add a data viewer, and send it to a data destination. The data viewer shows the user variable default and not the assignned value.
I replaced the user variable with a system variable in the expression field and that works fine.
Have folks successfully used this scenario before? Any ideas? Thanks.
I have created two User variables at Package level (OldRunID{Int32} and NewRunID{Int32}).

In short can any one tell me a correct way of using a table name as variable in
Data Access Mode : Table name or view name variable ?
One other question: can I make use of a dynamic SQL in Execute SQL Task? If yes, how do I write the query
exec( 'select * from ' + @table)
or just
select * from @table
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
This problem is a bit weird but I'm just wondering if anybody else experienced this.
I have a package that has file system tasks (copying dtsx files actually). Basically the package copies other packages to a pre-defined destination. Thing is, it only works if one of the packages it is configured to copy has some sort of sensitive data (e.g., a connectionstring with a password), otherwise it reports a success message on execution but doesn't actually do anything. I've checked the forcedexecutionresult and it is set to None for that matter.
Just wondering if anybody else experienced this problem and of course if there's a way to solve it.
Thanks.
