Wasted a lot of time figuring out the possible cause of this. I was working in connected mode (with VSS), and when it tried to create a Report Model (after doing all its validations/checks), it had to check-out the project file, which is normal. But before doing so, it tries to check-out the .dsv file as well (data source view file from which report model is being generated). While attempting this, the visual studio crashes. I could never guess that this could be an issue. All the time I was trying to figure out if there was anything wrong with the data in my tables. So, for me, a simple solution worked - check-out the .dsv file before you start creating data model. I hope this may save time for others...
Has anybody ever had VS2005 sometimes crash when deploying reports? It only happens once and awhile, but it is annoying. I was hoping this would go away with service pack 1, but it didn't.
Another problem that I thought would be fixed is when you try to close VS2005 after working on reports and it states "Cannot close because an active modal is active" occasionally.
Basically i'm trying to create an SSIS workflow to download Sharepoint List data to SQL Server on a schedule of some kind.do we actually have to use the GAC install approach in order to get the Sharepoint List Destination and Sharepoint List Source entries to appear on the SSIS Project workflow entities?
I have two similar packages that are both experiencing this issue.
I need to add a script step to generate an incrementing id for the packages.
Once I add the script step, and then save the package, next time I open the package I get a "Microsoft Visual Studio has encountered a problem and needs to close" error which kills off Visual Studio.
The error signature is: EventType: clr20r3 P1: devenv.exe P2: 8.0.50727.762 P3: 45716759 P4: microsoft.sqlserver.txscript P5: 9.0.242.0 P6: 443f5ab8 P7: 67 P8: d P9: bbp0yyyc15o2dbouwcacz2m0bodqkotn
If I move the error window to one side, delete the whole Script step, and save the Package, then I can reopen the package again without the error occurring.
Here is the actual code in my script step (in case its of any assistance...) (I have retyped it from a printout, so it may not be 100%. DOCID is supposed to increment from 1. DREF1 is a system-unique id, that takes up from where the last batch left off, and is a string prefixed by "MP")
Code Snippet
Imports System Imports System.Data Imports System.math Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dta.Runtime.Wrapper

I have a package that I was able to edit a week before. But now it is consuming all CPU memory (100%) and not letting me to edit the package (When I try to edit that it says Visual Studio Is busy even after an hour waiting).
Even though I have not changed anything, the package is behaving like this.
We have found that it is common for Visual Studio 2005 to crash when editing or running SSIS packages -- from CTP versions through beta versions and including the release version.
Of course we kept hoping that newer releases would become more stable, or at least more robust -- and now I'm hoping there will be a service pack, which might make it more robust?
I have a package with numerous data flows in it. (I know - this is not recommended as a best practice.) Anyway, one of the Data Flows just started giving me some trouble. When I opened that particular Data Flow, then BIDS would crash. I tried loading the project again, and opening that Data Flow task, and it just kept crashing. I rebooted - same deal.
The Data Flow was itself very simple. There was an OLE DB Source, and OLE DB Destination, a conditional split, a derived column, a data conversion and a Lookup. Pretty routine stuff. Out of the blue really, and long after I created it - it just starting crashing BIDS when I opened it.
My solution was to copy the Data Flow control flow component and paste it back into the same package. This worked perfectly fine, and didn't see any issues after. So, apparently something in the meta data became corrupt, and caused it to crash.
Anyway, just curious if others have seen this behavior, but also wanted to post this as a solution in case someone else has the same problem.
Hi, I'm trying to implement an incremental data pull (Oracle to SQL) based on Andy's blog: http://sqlblog.com/blogs/andy_leonard/archive/2007/07/09/ssis-design-pattern-incremental-loads.aspx
My development machine is decent: 1.86 GHz, Intel core 2 CPU, 3 GB of RAM. However it seems the data flow task gets hung whenever I test the package against the ~6 million row source, as can be seen from these screenshots. I have no memory limitations on the lookup transformation. After the rows have been cached nothing happens. Memory for the dtsdebug process hovers around 1.8 GB and it uses 1-6 percent of CPU resources continuously. I am not using fast load to insert new records into my sql target table. (I am right clicking Sequence Container 3 and executing this container NOT the entire package in the screenshots)
The same package works fine against a similar test table with 150k rows. http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg168/boston_sql92/7.jpg http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg168/boston_sql92/8.jpg
The weird thing is it only takes 24 minutes for a full refresh of the entire source table from Oracle to the SQL target table. Any hints,advice would be appreciated.
I use the SQL Compact Edition 3.1 as database for a desktop application. Everything works fine, but is it possible to edit the data (e.g. tables and views) in the SQL Server Management Studio? I can make a connection to the SQL CE database, but I can only edit the objects of a table. The option 'Open Table' as in SQL Server (2005) is not avalible? Does anybody know if it posible to edit the data with the Managementstudio (express)?
I have a script that changes the name of a file after a data upload. The script works fine if I execute the package in Visual Studio but when I run the file package from a SQL server job it does not rename the file. The data does get uploaded it just does not run the final script.

I am running into issues with custom objects interaction with visual studio 2005.
1. Custom connection manager. I am setting the name of the connection manager ( to standardize naming convention ) that user created, however when the CM is created, the name displayed in visual studio is still the default name even if the real name is the one i set. I have to do things like, edit it or save package - close - reopen, create another connection, ... etc in order to get it refreshed.
2. Custom Task I am managing some variables in this custom task so that I will be adding and deleting variables in the package. The challenge i am running into is, when I added 2 variables for example, even though the variables are successfully added to package, the Variable Window in visual studio designer will not reflect the new variables. I have to save package, close, and re-open in order for the variables to show up.
So this brings to my question - is there any way to tell Visual Studio programmatically to refresh the contents of these 2 sections, 1 is the Variable Window and the other is the panel containing the list of connection managers.
I have been searching around and found some clue about visual studio SDK but I still cannot find an exact way of doing it. Visual Studio SDK example tells you how you can access the Variable window as
I have several DTS packages that connect to various Oracle databases. An upgrade has recently been done to one of the databases from 7.3 to 8i. The other databases were always 8i. Last week, I could edit data transer tasks normally, this week, DTS hangs and I have to use task manager to kill the process. It worked fine last week. I can successfully run the packages, I just can't edit them. I have no trouble editing or running packages that connect to databases other than the one recently upgraded. I have tried both OLE DB and ODBC connections with the same results. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
I am trying to create a simple BI Application for SSIS. In Visual Studio 2005 I just get a Data Flow Task from the toolbar and add it to the project. When I double click it I get the following error:
The task with the name "Data Flow Task" and the creation name "DTS.Pipeline.1" is not registered for use on this computer.
Then when I try to delete it it gives this other error:
Cannot remove the specified item because it was not found in the specified Collection.
I am creating this application in an administrator account in this computer, so I doubt the problem is related to permissions. I am running SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 in WinXP Tablet PC Edition.
Any suggestions why this is happening and how to fix it?
I am using SQL 2005 SSIS. I am joining several large tables and then the move result into another table in the same database.
I would like know which method is faster:
Use Execute SQL Task to insert the result set to the target table
Use the Data Flow Task to insert the result set to the target table. (Use OLE DB source to execute SQL command and then use the SQL destination) Could you tell me why then other is slower?
I have a stored procedure that is executed via a sql script task that returns a full result set. I map this result set to a variable or object type. Is there a way to use this variable as a data source in a subsequent data flow task?
I'm trying to get a record count out of a databse using OLE DB Source and row count tasks but keep getting an error. I set up a variable as int32 and select the variable name in the row count task and when I go to the Input Columns tab to select a field to count, it gives me this error:
Error at Data Flow Task[Row Count[505]]: The component "Row Count" (505) has forbidden the requested use of the input column with lineage ID 32.
I created a package with SQL 2005. The package gets the Access DB and then inserts it into SQL Server.
If I open the package in .NET, I can see the SQL Task and Data Flow Task. The SQL Task has a property sqlstatementsource, which has the necxessary SQL code to create the tables.
How can I tell the SQL Task to recompile the SQL code if I give it another DB name, because the tables differ and don't map in the Data Flow Task
I have a table which has been loaded from various source feeds. The SourceId relates to the source name and the SourceCompanyId is the sources primary key for the company. I am basically trying to create one row with all the SourceCompanyIds in my column headers. What data flow tasks would be necessary in SSIS?
I want to export data from SQL Server2005 to an Excel spreadsheet thru "Data Flow Task". I am using OLE DB for SQL Server for the source connection and a Connection To Excel as my destination source. The Excel spreadsheet (2003) exists and has the first row with column names. I don't have any warnings before trying to execute.
While executing the tasks, I got the error Error: 0xC0202025 at Data Flow Task, Excel Destination [427]: Cannot create an OLE DB accessor. Verify that the column metadata is valid. Error: 0xC004701A at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: component "Excel Destination" (427) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC0202025.
After analysing I found in the DataFlow --> Excel destination --> Advanced Editor for Excel Destination, the default data type for txtRemarks shows as "Unicode string [DT_WSTR]". But this is supposed to be "Unicode text stream [DT_NTEXT]". Even if I change the data type in the design time, It doesn't accept.
I need to call a stored procedure to insert data into a table in SQL Server from SSIS data flow task. I am currently trying to use OLe Db Destination, but I am not sure how to map inputs to OLE DB Destination to my stored procedure insert. Thanks
I am new to SSIS. I need some help in designing the below dataflow task.
-- Teacher creates several tasks and each task is assigned to multiple students -- The teacher table contains contains all the tasks created a every teacher use ods go create table teacher ( yr int, tid int, tname varchar(20), taskid int
)
insert into teacher values(2007,101,'suraj','task1') insert into teacher values(2007,101,'suraj','task2') insert into teacher values(2007,102,'bharat','task3')
insert into teacher values(2007,103,'paul','task4') insert into teacher values(2007,103,'paul','task5') insert into teacher values(2007,103,'paul','task6')
-- Teacher "suraj" has created 2 tasks -- Teacher "bharat" has created 1 task
select * from ods..teacher yr tid tname taskid ============================ 2007 101 suraj 1111 2007 101 suraj 1122 2007 102 bharat 2222
-- Students table contains studentid(sid),teacherid(i,e tid ) & taskid drop table students
create table students ( yr int, sid varchar(10), tid int, taskid varchar(10) )
truncate table students
insert into students values(2007,'stud1',101,'task1') insert into students values(2007,'stud1',101,'task2')
insert into students values(2007,'stud2',101,'task1') insert into students values(2007,'stud2',101,'task2')
--Note : stud1,stud2 comes under teacher with tid "101"
insert into students values(2007,'stud3',102,'task3')
-- Note : stud3 and stud4 comes under teacher with tid "102"
insert into students values(2007,'stud4',103,'task4') insert into students values(2007,'stud4',103,'task5') insert into students values(2007,'stud4',103,'task6')
insert into students values(2007,'stud5',103,'task4')
select * from students yr sid tid taskid ---------------------------- 2007 stud1 101 task1 2007 stud1 101 task2
Now in my target table i need to load the data in a such a way that
use targetdb go drop table trg go
create table trg ( yr int, -- data should load from teacher.yr tid int, taskid int(20), cnt int
)
Mapping in target column and value to be loaded ================================================== yr -- teacher.yr tid -- teacher.id taskid -- this need to start a new sequence of numbers starting from 1 for each teacher and dont want the task id to be copied as it is. cntofstudents -- need to count no of students from "students" table for a given teacher and for his assignment
For example for teacherid "101" and taskid "task1" there are 2 students again for the same teacher "101" and taskid "task2" there are 2 students
For teacher "102" and taskid "task3" there is only 1 student
Similary for teacher "103"
Relation ========
Teacher table | Students Table yr | yr tid | tid
After i run the ETL the data should look as follows :
insert into trg values(2007,101,1,2) insert into trg values(2007,101,2,2)
insert into trg values(2007,102,1,1)
insert into trg values(2007,103,1,2) -- task4 is created by teacher "103" and assigned to 2 students stud4 and stud5 insert into trg values(2007,103,2,1) -- task5 is created by teacher "103" and assigned to 1 student i.e stud4 insert into trg values(2007,103,3,1) -- task6 is created by teacher "103" and assigned to 1 student i.e stud5
Note : If u observer the values in 3rd column of the trg table, instead of directly mapping the taskid we need to generate a separate sequence for every teacher.
BottomLine : for each and every task created by each teacher there should be a unique record along with the count of students in "STUDENTS" table
Can anyone help me out in designing the Data Flow task for this Functionality.
Hi there. I'm trying to learn SSIS, please, help me. I have 2 questions:
1) There are 2 databases on 2 different servers. I need to get data from Table1(database1) and put it to Table2(database2). But I have to insert rows, which ID is not exists in Table2. How Can I do necessary filter?
2) In the OLE DB DataSource Component I have used SQL Command(it's simplified):
declare @TmpTable TABLE (WorkCode int not null);
INSERT INTO @TmpTable (WorkCode) select WorkCode from Table1
SELECT WorkCode FROM @TmpTable
SSIS Package works without any exception. But there is no any inserted record in destination table. If I try similar query without temporary table - it works good. Why?
I have SQL Server 2005 Express edition on my machine. On an SSIS project in BIDS, when i drag a "Data Flow Task" to the package it returns the following error:
The designer could not be initialized. (Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Design)
Does this has anything to do with the fact that i don't have SSIS installed on my machine?
I thought that SSIS was only needed (on my machine) for the runtime, just to run the packages. To create and edit the pachages i need to install SSIS on my machine too? this doesn't makes sense, maybe it's another problem.
I am having problems with the Data Flow task. It does not even show up in the list of items to drop into the SSIS project.
If I go to the Data Flow tab and hit create, I get the follow error. I have tried repairing and reinstalling, but nothing seems to clear up the error. Without rebuilding my machine, is there anyone who knows how to get the Data Flow Task reinstalled properly?
Thanks
Wayne

I have a simple data flow task setup... 2 ADO.NET connection managers, each referencing a DSN pointed to a Unidata database. 2 DataReader sources, each using a single ADO.NET connection managers, running a simple SELECT statement from a table. I have a Union All transform setup to merge the data and write to a OLE DB Destination (SQL05 database)
When I run the package, each source will validate, but only one will execute. The other source will do nothing. The data source will be colored yellow, and will just sit there. The package will just sit, almost like it is waiting for input.
This behavior is not consistent, however. It varies which data source will hang, pretty much 50-50. About 25% of the time, both sources will execute, and all rows will be written to the destination.
I have a Windows XP X64 machine with SQL 2005 Developer and VS 2005 Team Edition for Architects on it. For the most part it appears that all normal VS and SQL functions are working properly with the exception of SSIS. If I open the developer studio and drag a Data Flow Task onto the design surface I get the message below. I have tried doing an unistall and reinstall of Integration Services as well as a repair on VS 2005 with no success. I've searched the web and newsgroups and can't find any mention of the problem I'm having. Any help greatly appreciated.
I wanna know if we can have more than one "OLEDB Destination" within a Data Flow Task, I want to use the same data flow and write to two different tables in a database with some changes. If we cannot do this within the same data flow what is the best way to do this.
