XML Source - No External Columns Avail-- Syntax Error In XML/XSD?

Jan 28, 2008

Hi All,

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.


XML File:



Code Snippet
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<AccountResponse xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<AccountNumber>S12345678</AccountNumber>
<RecordNumber>AAA1122</RecordNumber>
<ProcessedDate>Monday, January 28, 2008 11:07 AM</ProcessedDate>
<Status>0</Status>
<StatusMessage>Complete</StatusMessage>
</AccountResponse>

Error: The External Metadata Column Collection Is Out Of Synchronization With The Data Source Columns

Apr 17, 2007

Hello,

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.



Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.



Thanks.

XML Source Error Output Columns Set To NTEXT?

Aug 17, 2007

I've read about the XML Source sometimes setting error output columns to DT_WSTR(255), but mine is now setting them to DT_NTEXT.

Anyone have any suggestions short of an XML editor? I'm concerned that I might do something to "refresh" the columns and cause the problem again.

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!

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.

Any suggestions ?

Starting A Job Based On External Source/event

Jun 6, 2003

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.

Thanks in advance.

DataReader Source Error - Cannot Change The Datatype, Precision Or Scale In The Output Columns

Oct 3, 2007

I have a data source that I access via odbc in a DataReader Source component in SSIS. I can access the data fine. However, I am having problems with certain fields that are numeric (specifically home prices ranging from 100,000.00 to 99,999,999.00). In the advanced editor for my data reader source under the input and output properties tab, in data reader output under the external columns and output columns, these fields for some reason default to numeric data types with a precision of 4 and a scale of zero, not large enough to hold the data that is coming in. This causes errors that make the data come in as null (after i specify to ignore the errors).

I can change the precision and scale to 18 and 4 in the external columns, but when I try to change the datatype, precision or scale in the output columns I get the following message:

Property Value is not valid.

The details are:

Error at Import DataReader Source: The data type of output columns on the component "DataReader Source" cannot be changed.
Error at DataReader Source: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0xC020837D)
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.DataReaderSourceAdapter.SetOutputColumnDataTypeProperties(Int32 iOutputID, Int32 iOutputColumnID, DataType eDataType, Int32 iLength, Int32 iPrecision, Int32 iScale, Int32 iCodePage)
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ManagedComponentHost.HostSetOutputColumnDataTypeProperties(IDTSManagedComponentWrapper90 wrapper, Int32 iOutputID, Int32 iOutputColumnID, DataType eDataType, Int32 iLength, Int32 iPrecision, Int32 iScale, Int32 iCodePage)

Any help is greatly appreciated.

XML Source Doesn't Validate External Metadata Properly

Sep 26, 2007

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.

I think this is a bug. Anyone agree?

Flat File Source - If An Error Occurs, Continue Parsing The Remaining Columns In The Row Before Failing

Jan 14, 2008

Hello everyone,


I have a package that extracts data from a Flat File. If any errors or truncation occur during the extraction of the input data, the package should fail. All fields that have erroneous values should be reported in the log file.


My Solution:
- I have created a Data Flow Task that contains a Flat File Source Adapter and a dummy destination.

- I have left the default "Error Output" configuration of the Flat File Source adapter, namely if a truncation or an error occur for a certain column, then the reaction is "Fail Component".


Problem:
This configuration gives me only the first erroneous column in the row being processed.


Question:
Is it possible to make the Flat File Source adapter continue parsing the current row before it fails? This way, I would be able to get all the erroneous columns in the row in one shot.


Thanks in advance...
Samar

No External Columns Available From SQL Command?

May 9, 2008

Hello.

I have a OLE DB Data Source Component that uses an SQL command as the data access mode. On the Connection Manager "tab" of the OLE DB Source Editor I can sucessfully parse my query and produce a preview of the data.

However, when I go to the Columns tab I see no available external columns? Apart from the fact I'm using a union I can't think of any reason why I can't see any columns, it doesn't make sense.

Please Help.

External Columns From Sybase Stored Procedures

May 31, 2006

I need to execute several stored procedures on a Sybase server and copy the results to SQL Server 2005 tables. While using an ad-hoc sql statement the "Available External Columns" list is correct, however when using a stored procedure the list is empty. I've tried to work around this a couple of ways without success.

1) DelayedValidation.
I ran the sql from the stored procedure body in the OLE DB Source to set the column list, then turned on DelayValidation for the Data Flow component. When I switch to using a stored procedure it still connects to the Sybase database and removes the column list. Still does this even after turning on DelayedValidation for the sequence container and entire package (the OLE DB source itself does not have the option).

2) Using a variable that changes during runtime.
I copied the sql from the Sybase procedure into the default value of a variable. A script changes it to a procedure at runtime. This provides a column list in design mode but throws the error "The external metadata column collection is out of synchronization with the data source columns. The external metadata column xxxx needs to be removed from the external metadata column collection" and repeats for every column in the list. I know that the column names and data types are identical.

3) Manually updated the external/output columns list.
Was very painful and gave me the same errors.

It seems that DelayedValidation is the route I'm supposed to take, but I don't see how it would be any different during runtime.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

OLE DB Source To Flat File Destintation Using Fixed Width Columns - Determining Source Column Width

Feb 13, 2007

Hi,

I am trying to create a program that transfers tables to flat files.
At this point in time, I have suceeded in created one that creates delimited files.

However, I am now trying to create fixed-width files as you can do with the SSIS designer, but programatically.

Is there a way to programatically determine the width of a column from the source table? I can not seem to find any kind of function or member that stores this information or allows me to retrieve it.

I know what I need to change in order to set a width for a column, but I just don't know how to find the width without just asking the user to provide one.

Set The Data Source Of Data Flow From External Application (C#)

Jan 11, 2006

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!

delete from sys.availability_group_listener_ip_addresses where listener_id = '26d37cdb-5a6f-43a0-ab0c-f4343eeac0f2'

delete from sys.availability_group_listeners where group_id = '6B060505-CDDC-44B6-A9AD-38FC6AD4A7AA'

Ad hoc updates to system catalogs are not allowed.How can I remove the invalid IP?

Trying To Select Info With If Exists Statement With No Avail

Jan 6, 2004

Im trying to select rows on the following criteria

My app has a user that can have x jobs, each job has related entries which are marked has unread or read. I need to return any jobs that contain any unread entries also I need to return other jobs that have no entries marked as read.

I am able to return the following:


Comment UnReadMy Job 164
Comment UnReadFor Cam 166

Comment ReadThe Job 157
Comment ReadThird 159
Comment ReadMy Job 164

but as you can see jobid 164 appears in both groups and I need it to be one or the other

I tried using the if exists statement and was only able to return one group either unread or read, not both. I've tried everything but I'm new and I figure that theres got to be a more elegant way. Heres my sql:

My queries run fine on my local machine in SQL Server 2005 Management Studio. I have run queries for up to an hour or more. The minute i put them in a SP and execute them they time out at 90 sec.

I have a linked server set up to the 400 with the connetion timeout set at 600 and the Query timeout at 600 through port 8471. Is there a port timeout on the server I need to change?

SQLCE Syntax For Multiple Word Columns

Feb 2, 2005

What is the syntax when creating a SQL statement and using a column that has a multiple word name?

I know that in query analyzer it should be delimited? by double quotation marks like such:
SELECT Item, "Item Description" FROM ComponentList WHERE Item = 'CPU'
The above works great in Query Analyzer on the device and in the device emulator.

but I'm attempting to build a SQL string in code...VB.Net using CF and PocketPC SDK, SQLCE on the PocketPC device....

Here's the snippet that does not work:
sql = "SELECT Item, 'Item Description' FROM ComponentList WHERE Item = '" & selectedItem & "' "

Try
cnITSComponents.Open()
cmdItems = New SqlCeCommand(sql, cnITSComponents)
drItems = cmdItems.ExecuteReader()
fieldCount = drItems.FieldCount

While drItems.Read()
.....More code here not copied

I'm trying to fill a listview control and when I use the above syntax one of the columns is filled with the text Item Description instead of pulling the actual Item Description from the table...So what is the correct way to construct the SQL string?

Thanks
Greg
