Is possibile configure as expression the properties XMLData and XMLdataDefinition of a "XML Source"? looking the editors it seems it is not possibile... I think it is a great limit of the component because I must hardcode the path!

I have a got a package with source as sql table which has got 50 columns. We are using only 10 columns out of this. Recently one column name has changed and thus throws error invalid mapping. When I open the source to do the changes noticed that all the colums are prselected now and also the datatypes got changed to default ( I had changed the datatypes as per my requirement while i developed). So now I had to select required columns from source and redo the datatype changes in advanced editor.Is there any option which doesnt disturb this settings and we just need to correct the mapping alone.Â
Hi all,I am having real problems allowing a client to connect to sql 2000through enterprise manager.. I have tried all sorts but to no avail:From our local network all works fine.. Using the adsl line.. Even ifi try and connect to the external IP and use login details..(Asopposed to connecting local and using windows accounts) I can ping andtelnet the server and port.The server is behind a firewall so i opened up port 1433 and port1434(? is it needed).. To replicate the client i took the same laptophome that i use to connect in the office.. However using the exactsame config on my dial up at home i can ping the server but cannottelnet onto port 1433.. I think that this is the vital missing stepbut do not know hpw to resolve it..Any ideas anyoneCheersAnt
How can I move data from an external source to SQL-server 6.5.
If you for example has an oracle database on a UNIX or VMS-system and want to move table data from a table in the oracle database to the SQL-server database.
There must be plenty of tools to do that via ODBC.
We run a weekly update on one of our databases from a download (FTP) from our mainframe. What I want to do is start the update job automatically after all of the files are downloaded.
I have a similar process in another database where the users set a flag in an application after they've made certain changes. The job fires daily at 18:00 and checks the value of the flag in the table. It then processes or goes back to sleep. This works great but there is no flag that the users can update in this application.
I'm looking to create a table in SQL using data from the as/400. I need some code that extracts it from as/400 using odbc and I need it to loop and create that table every minute. The file its retrieving is a live file but not very large.. I need to basically poll the data. Does anyone have code for something like this.. thanks
I have a knowledge of SISS and CRM 3.0 but don't get any proper steps to create such Integration Service in SQL Server 2005 using CRM 3.0 as external data source.
I don't get any option of external data source for CRM.
So if anybody know about this then let me know steps to do that.
I have an XML file that my XML Source component is accessing. I have noticed that is possible to set a column in the external metadata collection to a certain datatype and the matching output column to a different datatype and this doesn't not generate a warning like it does with other source components (e.g. Flat File Source Adapter).
Try it. Set a column in your external metadata to have a datatype of DT_WSTR. Set the matching output column to DT_UI8. You will NOT get a validation error. I think you should.
This behaviour was noticed on RTM (i.e. no service pack installed) by the way.
Hopefully someone can help me with what I'm sure is a very simple question (new to the XML thing). I receive an XML file from "someplace" that I need to parse out using the XML Source in SSIS. I have SSIS generate me an XSD document, as one isn't provided for me. However, after I do this, SSIS does not show any available external columns to pull data from- the "Columns" section of the source is just blank. I'm pretty sure this has to do with a syntax error in either the XML file that is being provided to me, or the XSD doc that SSIS is generating. Below are both (obviously with data dummied up). Can someone take a look and let me what needs to be changed in either file to get this up and running? I'm looking to grab the AccountNumber, RecordNumber, ProcessedDate, Status, and StatusMessage elements.
I have a SSRS 2012 report which references a custom c# assembly.  This report exists in multiple environments (alpha, beta and  production ) which are each associated with different data sources.
Is there a way for the assembly to determine the datasource used by the calling report so it can also connect to it?
I have a SSIS package with a Data Flow task. This task transfers the data from SQL Server 2000 to a table in SQL Server 2005.
I deployed and tested this package on the Test Server. Then put this package in a job and executed it - Works fine.
On the production server- If I execute the package through DTEXECUI, it works fine. But when I try executing it through a job- the job fails and it gives me following error:
Description: The external metadata column collection is out of synchronization with the data source columns. The "external metadata column "T_FieldName" (82)" needs to be removed from the external metadata column collection....
What I don't understand is, why are there no errors displayed when I execute the package through DTEXECUI.
Hi there, I believe this is simple requirement but to me it seems to be complicated. My data source is excel. I would like to configure the path of my data source in SSIS Package and file name is not a constant value. SSIS package should pick the file named as Today's (current) date from the configured path. As well, package should catch the exception for example file not found and log into custom log. It would be gr8 if some body helps me out.
I am new to SSIS programming, so bear with me if my question seems naive to you gurus. I have a situation that needs to set the data source for a data flow from external .NET application ('external' means that the application will run on different process than the SSIS). I am trying to set the data source on which the data flow works from my C# application in a DataSet format. Ideal solution is not to save the DataSet to any file on harddisk (I know that will work, but has the overhead of writing, reading and managing the temp file). What I want to achive is that the business logic of picking data for SSIS Data Flow to process is controlled inside my C# application, the Data Flow just does what it does best - Transformation. Have any of you successfully done this before?. Thanks!
I am seeing a particular problem in the XML Source Editor "Columns" configuration where it is not persisting the "Output name" selection.
Control Flow Tab: 1. I use a "Exec SQL Command" to drop, create, or alter the destination tables in the database that I want to be repository for the inbound XML data. The data types are fairly straightforward.
2. I add a singular "Data Flow"
Data Flow Tab:
1. I add a "XML Source" task, and assign a well-defined XML file. I then use the "Generate XSD" option in the "Connection manager"; and I am fairly satisfied with the generated XSD.
2. I create "OLE DB Destination"
3. I wire the "XML Source" to the "OLE DB Destination". In the "XML Source" in the "Columns".
4. I go to the dropdown list of "Output name" and see the list ordered with the various complex-types that I want to map and transfer to a target table.
For the sake of this report, I select the 5th one down on the list (for which I already have a target table) - let's call this "Mesh"
5. In the "Input Output" dialog, I select the "output" to be the desired 5th item, "Mesh"
6. I check all my mappings so that they map one-to-one ... XML name entries match SQL table destination mapping entries; correct types; correct size
7. Check the metadata and it all looks good.
8. When I hit "Debug" to test the package the failure occurs at the "XML Source". The error report comes back saying that it failed because "field xxx in Contributor was truncated". However, "Contributor" corresponds to the 1st name in the dropdown list presented in "Columns" "Output name:".
If I select return to Step 4, when I open up "Columns" I see that my previous selection of the 5th item on the list named "Mesh" was not persisted, but invariably and no matter how often I select item #5 "Mesh" and save to ensure that selection sticks, it is not persisted.
I hand-edited the .dtsx file and only then was I able to make this stick. However, if I ever re-save the package this non-persistency pops up again.
Am I doing something wrong here or is this a known defect? As I have several dozen XSD mappings that I want to transfer to tables, hand-editing is not something I relish.
Hello allMy computer was installed with SQL Server 2005 Developer version, however, I checked the Default Web Site in Internet Information Service console and saw that the ASP.NET configuration was not correct as below."data source=.SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI; AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true"I have a question that can I replace the string, “.SQLEXPRESS”, with my server name and my SQL Server 2005 Developer named instance as below“DEVSERSQL2005Dev”?Thanks in advance for your help.

I have just finished installing SQL 2005 Ent Edition on Win 2000 Adv Server, SQL2005 SP2, and SP2 Hotfix KB934458. After the installation, I could see and configure all services via SQL Configuration Manager and SQL Server Surface Area Configuration tools. This worked for a couple of days and now both configuration tools no longer detect SQL2005 components. SQL Server Surface Area Configuration issued an error that said "No SQL Server 2005 components were found on specified computer. Either no components are installed, or you are not an administrator on this computer. (SQLAC)". SQL Configuration Manager did not list any installed services. I don€™t know what caused this. Anyone has any idea? Please help! Below is the Installation Report which shows installed components.
===================================
The following components are installed on this server
Hi --I was wondering if this is a bug when I add new data in my table SSIS Confiurations and give wizard a new Configuration filter the package configuration wizard can not see the new values --the old values from the previous configuration are still showing---is there any known workaround or forced refresh I can do
thanks in advance Dave
Background:
SQL Package Configurations are most important because they provide the possibility of a central configuration store for your entire enterprise!!!!!!!! and is in my mind the only way to go
USE [ETLConfiguration] GO /****** Object: Table [dbo].[SSIS Configurations] Script Date: 05/23/2006 13:34:35 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SSIS Configurations]( [ConfigurationFilter] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL, [ConfiguredValue] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL, [PackagePath] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL, [ConfiguredValueType] [nvarchar](20) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL ) ON [PRIMARY]
It seems to me, that the best way is to have one Environment Varible containing the name of the SQL Server, so that you can look up the configuration in the SSIS Configuration Table when you run the package.
Is this the preferable way of doing it ? I would like to hear some positive/negative comment of why chosing a configuration type instead of another.
It seems to me that putting all of the configuration in the Environment variable is harder work but most secure (server breakdown vs table corruption/database error...)
Hi, I want to transform an xml flow to an html flow. For this, I create an XmlDataDocument, I add on it, all that I want, and I store it in a file (in a dataflow task). After that, in an xml task, I set the input properties like that: Operation type: xslt SourceType: File connection Source: ras.xml
All works fine. But now, I want to use a variable to store my xml data. So, instead of storing my data in ras.xml, I store it in a variable like that:
Dim v As Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.IDTSVariables90 Me.VariableDispenser.LockOneForWrite("RAS", v) v("RAS").Value = doc.OuterXml v.Unlock()
and in the xml task, I set configuration like that:
But when I execute, I got this following exception:
Error: 0xC002F304 at Format HTML Mail, XML Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "Root element is missing.". Error: 0xC002928F at Format HTML Mail, XML Task: Property "New Source" has no source Xml text; Xml Text is either invalid, null or empty string.
Furthermore, when I want to debug it, in replacing the xml task, by a script task, I can see that in my RAS variable, I get the xml data which is well formed.
I was trying to load data using SSIS, Data Flow Task, OLE DB Source, source was a view to a OLE DB Destination (SQL Server). This view returns 420,591 rows from Query Analyzer in 21 seconds. Row length is 925. When I try to executed the Data Flow Task from SSIS, I had to stop the process after 30 minutes, because only 2,000 rows had been retrieved. I modified the view to retun top 440, 000 and reran. This time all 420, 591 rows were retrieved and written in 22 seconds. Next, I tried to use a TOP 100 Percent. Again, only 2,000 rows were return after 30 minutes. TempDB is on a separate SAN Raid group with 200 gig free, Databases on a separate drive with 200 gig free. Server has 13 gig of memory and no other processes were executing.
The only way I could populate the table was by using an Execute SQL Task and hard code an Insert into table selecting data from the view (35 seconds) from SSIS.
Have anyone else experience this or a similar issue? Anyone have a solutionexplanation?
I am having a huge xml file with nested section. i also have a xsd file for that xml. i have a destination table where the data from the xml should be loaded into. i am using the xml source transformation. But o get all the data i need to use multiple merje joins to get the data in a single row which i can insert into the destination.i was not quiet convinced with using so many joins.
so i tried using the script source transformation where i am using xml objects to get the node and dynamically construction the data row. and the output is then inserted into the destination. on comparing the two approach the one using the script source is working much faster than the xml source transformation.
i wanted to know is there any limitaion using the script source to parse through xml files. also i would like to know any other better way of getting the data from xml source without using the joins.
I am creating a windows application to manage my ssis packages.
My SSIS packages use package configurations, and by default connect to the "SSIS Configurations" table in sql server.
However, I want it to connect to a view instead of this table, so i create a view "vwSSIS_Configurations" and point the package configuration to use the view in sql server.
The application SHOULD be capable of altering the package configuration's configuration and switch its connection between the default "ssis configurations" table, and the view.
Is this possible? I cannot think of a way which I can have my application switch the package configuration's connection.
I'm trying to develop an application for a friend, who has his own server and SQL 2005 setup on it Is it possible to add a connection to an externally hosted SQL Database using VWD2008? I have a login and password for it, I just don't know where I set the IP address to connect to and the name of the DB etc...?Any help greatly appreciated.
hi,am working with my friend so we need to use the same DB ..how can i get him DB and insert it in mine to use it.i 've try to copy it and paste in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData then try to connect it by New connection bt it doesn't workNote:am working n Web Matrix ProjectRegards,
have setup SQL 6.5 on a machine. I have verified that port 1433 is opened for SQL. I am also using a router dell 2300. I am running Windows XP. I have set up my machine to port forward and have setup a static ip 192.168.2.136 nothing I do seems to work.
but when I try to connect to the external IP 12.xxx.xxx.xxx I get the dreaded sql does not exist error.
I can register the server by external ip. When I try to start the server I get an (RPC server unavailable) error.
I can ping the external ip.
I can telnet 192.168.2.136 1433 without error
I can connect though security manager using 12.xxx.xx.xx
I can't telnet 12.xxx.xx.xx.
I think its router but I do not know what I'm missing. I have static ip 192.68.136 set up.
Router Port Forward Settings
Service Enabled In Port Dest Addy Dest Port Type MSSQLSER Y 1433-1434 192.168.2.136 1433-1433 TCP MSSQLSER Y 1434-1434 192.168.2.136 1434-1434 UDP
I have also read that some ISP's block port 1433 due to the worm problem. So I changed the listining port from 1433 to 1971. I am still able to connect using this new port with local ip or local name. I still cannot connect to external IP. (I did change router setting to reflect new port forward to 1971)
I am not sure what I missing. Thanks in advance for any help
Hello,I want to access my database server from the internet. I've created a ruleon my router to redirect port 1433 to the desired machine, but still get aServer does not exist, or access denied message. When I change the(external) ip to the local IP address, connection succeeds. Is thereanything i need to change within SQL Server to allow external (internet)access?
I am looking for some guidance on the following CE based project. The project would mean placing a program on multiple appliances (either PDA mrtphone) which would then periodically connect onto a SQL 2005 server and both read and right to a table on the server. This would mean multiple connections to the server.
I have read various articles which discuss the use of SQL_ce to achieve this but SQL_ce is a single user application. Is it possible to achieve this objective by publishing a share of the SQL 2005 database tables to an internet share folder to allow multiple external connections? Also if it is possible can I test the application on a windows XP platform?
