I've tried creating several Web Service Tasks and had no problems until I came across one that requires authentication. I have a standalone program to handle this Web Service, but I'm experimenting with SSIS to see if I can replace it.
Anyone know how to handle this?
Thanks

Hi,
In SSIS web service task - when you specify the Service and Method in the input tab for a WSDL file being used,
it seems to prompt for the parameters to be supplied only in the body of the WSDL file, and not the header.
I need to be able to provide security information (present in the SOAP header of the WSDL) like username, password etc..which is necessary to post any response to the web server, and I cannot see where I can give this in the input tab of the web service task.
Any help highly appreciated.
Thanks
Hi,I have a client that needs to issue soap calls to a third-party webservice from within a DTS package. Is this even possible? I'velooked everywhere and found the sqlxml, but that looks like itprovides a soap web service, not consumes one.Right now, we are consuming the same web service in an ASP.NETapplication and would love to use the same code, but am really justlooking for the best solution. Basically, the only firm requirementsare that the client needs to provide a text file of items that need tobe posted to the third-party via their web service. Right now, we usedts for the client to upload other text files, that's why I was hopingto use the same procedure, but if we need to go another route, I'msure I can convince them.Any suggestions?Trey

Does Report manager in Reporting Services 2005 support form Authentication?If so where can i go to enable it?

Hi, this is probably a simple question but I just can't figure it out. I'm using SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 sp1.
I'm trying to design a report that displays a particular embedded image on the first page, and then a different one on every subsequent page. I.e full, fancy company logo on the first page, and a trimmed down version on every other. In Crystal, I would have simply used the Report Header and Page Header sections to achieve this - easy.
However, in SQL Reporting Services, there is only a Page Header section - therefore whatever I place in the Page Header shows on every page. Now, I know how to stop it displaying on the first page, but I don't know how to display the other image instead.
I read in a support forum that it is possible to do this by "placing report items above or below your data regions" but I can't get it to work.
Grateful for any assistance.

I am trying to upgrade my default instance from SQL Server 2000 Standard to SQL Server 2005 Standard. I get to the service authentication window and hit my first problem. On that window, there is a dropdown box where you should be able to choose the default instance service AND the SQL Server Agent service and set the authentication information for both of those services. That's the way it is in my test environment. However, on my production server, when I click that dropdown box, only the instance appears, and not the agent. Why?
I tried the upgrade this past weekend and ran into this problem. After researching it and not finding anything out about it online, I decided to just go forward anyway since I had lots of backups and copies of everything. The upgrade appeared to go ok, but the agent service wouldn't start. It gave the usual message when you try to start a service that doesn't have anything to do, like the Performance Logs and Alerts service. When I looked at the agent in SQL Server Management Studio, it had (Agent XPs Disabled) next to it. So I researched this and found how to enable it. For some people online, this allowed them to start the agent service, but of course that didn't work for me. Finally in my research online I found that some individuals had a lot of missing system tables in their MSDB and Master databases after the upgrade due to some of the SQL scripts that are part of the upgrade process not running properly. So I compared my system tables and SP's against another SQL 2005 instance I have, and sure enough, there appears to be a lot of missing tables. It was at that point I decided to just restore everything and try again later.
My point in writing that second paragraph is to ask if that was all due to the fact that the SQL Server Agent wasn't listed in the upgrade wizard like it should have been? Or maybe the fact that it wasn't in that dropdown box was evidence of a deeper problem? Is it likely that if I do whatever it is I need to do to make the agent appear in the upgrade wizard that my missing system tables and agent service not starting problems would probably not be an issue anymore? And why would the agent not be appearing in the upgrade wizard?
Thanks for your help!
Maybe someone can help me. I am running the reporting service add in for Sharepoint and we have only Basic Authentication running on our site (it is on SSL). When i try and open a report in sharepoint it errors out on me. When i go back into IIS and set Windows and Basic authentication it works, but it requires me to enter our domain and username. We need to only use Basic so it will not need the domain. Anyone have any suggestions on what i can do to make this work?

Is it possible to configure a datasource using data from a web service (java) requiring basic http authentication?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am struggling to get my linked indexing service to return something when I query it. The thing is, when I use Management Studio and log in through Integrated Windows authentication I have no problems. However, when logging in through a test account that only exists in SQL server I get nothing returned. Some observations:
1. Changing the test account to have sa priveliges changes nothing
2. The test account has db_owner role on source db
3. I have tried to create a login using
sp_addlinkedsrvlogin FTIndexWeb, true, 'SomeLogin' but that didn't work. I also tried to do this manually in Mgt Studio.
4. I did not find any authentication related stuff in the management console of my pc in or near the Indexing Service. I'm not sure if my system imposes any security restraints that are invisible to me.
5. My query is
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(DNN4_BF_DMX, 'SELECT Path, Rank FROM SCOPE() WHERE FREETEXT(Contents, ''"Confidential"'')')
6. My setup: Win XP (SP 2), SQL SRV 2005 Express, Mgt Studio Express (SP1), (if relevant) .net frameworks 1.1/2.0.
I need to tell my customers how to get this going reliably and now I feel unsure whether this is at all possible. Anyone abe to shine some light on this?

Hi all,
I have created a package to copy 10 tables from a database to another one. I have created a datasource with SQL Authentication mode. And it couldn't run until I changed the datasource connection to Windows Authentication mode. How could it be like that, it's just the authentication mode?
Is there anyone have the right answer for this situation?
I am attempting to set up an always on cluster on VMware for testing. setting up everything through the Failover cluster is fine, the trouble comes when I try to set up the AlwaysOn availability group. Whenever I attempt to specify a network location I receive the following error: Operating System Error 1265(The system cannot contact a domain controller to service the authentication request..).
I looked up this error and most sites point towards a Windows 8 homegroup issue. Since this is a on a domain, I don't think it is relevant. I also added the service accounts from server A to Server B and visa versa. I even added the computer objects to its opposite partner..I have attempted to use "Join Only" and do a manual copy.
Using Bulk Insert Task extensively in our solution. Everything was working great till we deployed it in stage columns. The database server is different from application servers. We have ASP.NET web services driving SSIS packages on application server. After struggling thru several security issues to get this working (ended up creating an application pool with a domain account) we are now stuck with this problem. On a different note still don't understand what specific security permission is available to domain account that makes it work.
Read in some blog that SQL Server 2005 SP2 Beta had this (Bulk Insert) fixed but not in final production version. Is there a specific reason why this is so?
SSIS and the API is quite easy to work with but associated security and deployment issues are not always clear. A lot of answers seem to be coming from end users - thanks a lot to all for sharing your experiences - sadly not presented clearly in SSIS documentation.
Hi!
I have a HttpConnection with an url to an existing webservices f.ex. http://myweb/ws/ssis.asmx?wsdl
My Web Service Task is using this HttpConnection and I have specified a path for the WSDL-file, f.ex: c:SSISMyProj.wsdl
This leads to that I have to deploy the WSDL-file to exactly the same location on the Sql-server that hosts/executes the Package.
Is there a way to point out a URL or anything else? I don't want to have this dependency.

Hi,
I am an ETL Developer.Very new to web service task.I created a package where I am using For loop Container.Within the container I used Execute SQL Task (retrieve a single row using store proc).Output of the Execute SQL Task is passed to webservice task.The output of Web service task is a XML data which is used in the data flow task and transfer the xml output to flat file destination.The package works fine for a batch of hundred rows. But for a batch of 10,000 rows at a stretch the performance is very poor. The webservice can take only one input at a time. Is there any other method other than web service task to solve this problem?
Thank You

Hello All,
I am a using a web service task inside a package. I configured the url and also got the wsdl file into my local envirioment and mapped the path of the WSDL file into the package. The Test connection for the site also succeeded. The problem I am facing is as follows.
When I go to the input tab there the service name automatically comes up allright but in the Method when I use the drop down I do not see any of the functions that are listed. Am I doing something wrong? Please do advice. It is very very urgent.
Thanks in advance
Hello,
I tried to use an Web Service from SSIS (Web Service Task), this Web Service returns arrays of int and
an array of a data contract. It always returns the following error msg while selection the method after downloading
the WSDL-file:
Item has already been added. Key in dictionary: 'Arrayofint' Key being added:
'Arrayofint'.
When I remove the arrays and just use an data contract as return parameter. SSIS-project also returns the
same error message, but not with Arrayofint, instead it has the name of data contract. If I implement the
same webservice with ASP.Net everything works fine.
Is there a solution to this problem besides of using ASP.Net or a stored procedure in SQL Server, which
implements the web service access? Or has anyone has integrated a WCF web service with data contract?
Comment 06/12/16 (UH): Stored Procedures doesn't work either, since the assemblies from WCF can't be
added to SQL Server.
Thanks,
Uwe
Executing the simplest of Web Service tasks consistently fail with the error: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".
This really isn't a very helpful message for this task, and there's nothing from the task editor that can be adjusted. I am using SP1, the HTTP connection to the service tests OK, the WSDL file downloads OK, and the methods and parameters appear OK.
Suggestions?

A package contains a web service task which makes a call to a web service. This call may take some time to complete (maybe up to 5-10 minutes). In it's simplest form, my package is reporting a failure. Error message is
"Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.WebServiceTask.WebserviceTaskException: The Web Service threw an error during method execution. The error is: The operation has timed out.
I can find no way to set the timeout period of a SSIS web service task. Is this possible, or is it something which Microsoft is addressing?

I am trying to configure a web service task. I have created the HTTP Connection, and specified the WSDL. When I select the service name on the Input page, I get the error ...
Item has already been added. Key in dictionary: 'BaseTO' Key being added: 'BaseTO'
I have previously been able to successfully configure the task in a separate project.
The Webservice methods take and return complex parameters. e.g. BaseTO above is custom transfer object type which the other transfer objects inherit. It is a List<> of some type of this object which is being passed/returned from the service.
I suspect these complex types will not be supported anyway but am puzzled by the original problem.
Any help much appreciated.

I have a web service running from multipule locations. Its the same service at all the locations. I am trying to use a for loop to execute a web service task dynamically setting the url of the http connection manager that the webservice task uses. I have succesfuly done this, but the task is using a url from the wsdl file that is stored locally to access the service regardless of what the url is in the http connection manager is. Is there any way to force the web service task to download the wsdl file every time it's executed or is there an easier way for accomplishing this?

hi all,
I am creating a simple ssis package in business inteligence studio 2005. In that i am going to use an webservice task. I have assigned the wsdl and the configured the HTTP connection too. I have selected the service name and the method to be called. I have to give 2 input values for the web method. I need to make it dynamic. so i have planned to assign the variables for those input parameters. But In the webservice editor window there is only the provision to assign the vales for the input parameters. how can i assign valriables instead of setting the values directly.
I have also find in blogs that there will be a variable checkbox available. But i cant find the one..
Any one plz let me know the solution for this
Thankz
I have been struggling with a problem with the Web Service Task. I have a package that uses this and has to authenticate to the web service. This works fine on my development server but if I export the package to file and run from another computer / user, the package fails as it doesn't log in to the web service. I have found the problem to be the package was set to default of EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey and I understand why this is. If I change to use EncryptSensitiveWithPassword, it prompts for creds and works fine. My question is how do I use a package configuration file to use different creds (there is not password option for the http connection) so I can standardize on use of config files for this operation. Thanks.

My problem is that I cannot create a xsd schema for the xml file output from the "web service task", and because of this I cannot insert the data in the xml file into the Database, because the xsd schema is reqired by the XML Source which I use in my DataFlow task for inserting the data.
Do you have any ideas how to solve this strange problem?

I'm attempting to use the Web Service task to call a method provided by a vendor. The inputs are all simple types so that helps a lot, but for one input it's a string array. If I enter a single string value for a given id using the array dialog, the method works fine.
However if I try to change the input to use a variable to provide the value it fails. I'm assuming that you can't create a variable to return a string array. Please let me know if this is the case or if I'm missing something obvious ;-)
In addition, is there a way to specify a null value for an input? Currently there doesn't appear to be a way to do this in SP2. I tried leaving the string empty which didn't work and I tried using a variable with expression "NULL(DT_WSTR, 1252)" but that failed too.
Hello,
I have a web service contained in a apache tomcat server and I try to execute a webservice and store the result into a flat file.But I have a message saying me that there is an error in the xml document.
I suppose that it's my wsdl file.
But my wsdl file is fine!!!
Can the error come from the provider of the web service (Apache Tomcat).
I suppose that because in every example on the internet I didn't see an example an tomcat or other web server use.
When trying to set up a Web Service Task in SSIS I get this error message when I click on the "Test Connection" button:
Invalid URI: The format of the URI could not be determined.
The web service is http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx. When I enter the same URL into Internet Explorer it connects to the web service with no errors. We do have a proxy server. What is causing my problem?

I am trying to call a web service using the web service task and passing it variables, but even when I set variables to be Strings/any other data type, they always get passed out as objects. The call is then rejected based on the fact that there is no web service that accepts those parameter types. If there is a workaround to this problem, that would be great, otherwise I think I'm going to have to call the web services in a script task. Would someone please give me an example of the steps necessary to call a web service from the script task?
Thank you,

Hello,
I am trying to sync a database with data from a web service.
In my control flow I have the Web Service Task setup correctly (I can run the project and the expected data is output to a file if I set the output of the web service task to type "File Connection").
What I would like to do is set the OutputType of my Web Service Task to "Variable" and have the Xml Source component in my Data Flow read the variable and process it.
I have already created a variable of type string to link the two parts together, but I have not figured out how.
Any suggestions? I have been searching the web, but have not found an answer to my question.
Greg.
