Hi Everyone,I appreciate if you can help on the following procedure. When I ran it in my project in Visual Studio, the compiler always complained that it expected a parameter "@stud_id" that was not provided. What was wrong with this procedure?

I am having a Data flow task in For each loop which will gets 100 sourcetable names and 100 target table names...

I am repeating the Dataflow task which transfers from sourcetablename extracted from for loop to a destination table var.
The problem am gettting is for the first table it is able to transfer correcly because I did mapping for those tables at design time...but for the next coming sourcetable-desttable (which r having different no of cols,datatypes) its giving Validation failed...and...needs to refresh metadata....
is there any way to refresh the metadata of Data flow task (I set the property of OLEDBSource validate external meta to false then also same error is coming)

Hello all,
I'm trying to easily change a value in 80 ssis configuration files from "localhost" to "myservername". I downloaded WinGrep to do this, but it's balking on some of the files, saying that they are binary files.
Does anyone know how to make the *.dtsconfig files NOT binary in SSIS?
Any suggestions GREATLY appreciated.
I won't go into the reason I have my servername in 80 places...

Hi, i'm new in this forum and in SSIS, so I apologize if mine is a stupid question and also for my english.
I have this problem: i have to develop an ETL package and i have to set the transformation between input and output columns using a configuration file, i.e. my client want to change the transformation simply modifying a config file( for example from UPPER to LOWER ).
I tried using dtsconfig and setting EvaluateAsExpression with value 1( true ) and Expression UPPER[Column 2] but i get an error saying that Column 2 is not a variable.
There is a way to do it?
I don't know if i explained the problem well.
Thanks in advance
I have an SSIS package with a small number of connections for various databases, both SQL2K5 and AS2K5.
When I build the package the .dtsConfig file is produced but the contents for some of those connections are not accurate relative to the package itself. There are some old values retained in the .dtsConfig file.
Worse, when I deploy the package to another machine the installation should allow me to change these values to ones appropriate for the new server. While I am able to change them they are not retained and the old values crop back up making the package fail during execution.
Any idea where I can smack this thing to unstick these values?
Would specifics help? I can post the file(s) if need be.
Thank you in advance,

Apologies if this has been posted before and feel free to point me to an existing thread if it has.
I currently have a dev, stage and live environment for a package
i have created a load.dtsconfig file that contains various bits such as connection strings, email to, from, etc which i created via the package configurations in the dev package. I then made a few changes via XML Notepad
I went to use the same config file on stage and decided to add a further property. I selected package configurations on stage and selected edit it the package configurations box, added the property and clicked finish. However it reset all the existing properties to the values that exist in the actual package so all the changes i made via XML notepad were overwritten.
Is there anyway you can get the Package configurations editor to retain the values from the .dtsconfig file rather than reading in the values from the package???
cheers

hi, all;
i'd like to resolve this problem:
We are Developing packages in Dev.Server; if we are Deploying our packages to Prod.Server; we need to modify the connection string and related properties of the connection manager.
1. How to modify the connection manager while deploying to production server?
2. can we create 2 dtsconfig file for a single package; is there any mechanism for instructing sequel server to use a particular dtsconfig file for our package.
i modified the config file in order to change the connection string. but its affecting only the config file not the package. while running the package its reffering the old connection string only.
please provide me some help
Thanks
Hi,
Up to now, we're using SSIS variables for storing values such as server name, database or several paths.
All these variables are required when our developers give to us their DTSX packages for to be updated in production scenarios.
And now, we'd like to use xml files but I don't know how to. We've already got xml files for Data Flow, Sql Task and so on..
Thanks indeed for your time,
I am going thru the Integration Services Tutorial found in Books Online and I'm on Lesson 3. It has to do with creating a configuration file for the source file location. I followed the steps and now I need to open the .dtsConfig file and type in the folder location.
The exact direction says,
"
In Notepad or any other text editor, locate and open the SSISTutorial.dtsConfig configuration file that you created by using the Package Configuration Wizard in the previous task.
Change the value of the ConfiguredValue element to match the path of the New Sample Data folder that you created in the previous task. Do not surround the path in quotes.
Save the change, and then close the text editor.
"
When I open the file, I see this. What am I supposed to do here?
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- <DTSConfiguration>
- <DTSConfigurationHeading>
<DTSConfigurationFileInfo GeneratedBy="FFTWayi" GeneratedFromPackageName="Lesson3" GeneratedFromPackageID="{74BC5CCC-5C51-4ABD-9263-AD3C000E9E1C}" GeneratedDate="4/7/2008 11:25:53 AM" />
</DTSConfigurationHeading>
- <Configuration ConfiguredType="Property" Path="Package.Variables[User::varFolderName].Properties[Value]" ValueType="String">
<ConfiguredValue />
</Configuration>
</DTSConfiguration>
is this possible?
<Configuration ConfiguredType="Property" Path="Package.Variables[User::varFolderName].Properties[Value]" ValueType="String">
<ConfiguredValue>%enviroment variable%</ConfiguredValue>
</Configuration>
it would be really useful. it looks like the .dtsconfig file needs to be maintained on each install independently. This makes maintenance a nightmare. it would be a lot nicer if the .dtsconfig files were more like templates rather than hard coded values to specific system resources.
Hi frnds,
im running the SSIS package " data" in XXXdatabase.
now i have to run the same package in different database and in different server.
so i mentioned all the database config details in sql_server.dtsconfig file.
here i had attached my file :-
<?xml version="1.0"?><DTSConfiguration><DTSConfigurationHeading>
<DTSConfiguration>
<Configuration ConfiguredType="Property" Path="Package.Connections[YYY ].Properties[ConnectionString]" ValueType="String">
<ConfiguredValue>Data Source=YYY;User ID=XXX;Password=XXX;Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;</ConfiguredValue>
</Configuration>
</DTSConfiguration>
after i attached the file in package configurations .
i was unable to see the db connection in connection managers.
i tried to attach the .dtsconfig file in (New OLEDB connection manager) but after clicking the test connection " Testconnection failed because of an error in intializing provider.The connectionString property is not intialized"
Please help me in this.
Thnkx in advance.
I was requested to build and move and existing SSIS package from the developers local PC to the Dev server. Both are running SQL 2K5, I built the following command file so SQL Agent can run the import job.

My questions is how do I fix this and is this really and error?

I use an XML configuration file for my SSIS package, and I have "Enable package configurations" checked. When I build the package, however, there is no dtsConfig file in the output (set to in) or the Deployment folder, and the config file is not included in the SSISDeploymentManifest file. There are no build errors or warnings.
This was working fine the last time I worked on this package (~9 months ago), but not now. I have since installed SP2, but can't confirm if the problem is related to a "fix" in SP2.
When I edit package configuration files inside of Visual Studio, it puts all the XML on a single line. Does anyone know how to automatically spread the information onto multiple lines, to make comparing file differentials easier.
Thank you,
Mike
I built my package on my development machine with a config file at a given location. Let's say:-
C:DevelopmentdtsConfig.xml
Then I shipped my package to the Production machine and ran my package (in a .bat file) as follows:-
DTExec /FILE "C:ProductionPackage.dtsx" /CONFIGFILE "C:ProductiondtsConfig.xml"
But I get the following output:-

...
But then it goes on to read values from my Production config file.
How can I stop the annoying warning about my Development config file-path (which doesn't exist on the Production machine)
Thanks

Hello,
I have setup a package configuration and it ran fine; however, I would like to be able to use the script task to change content of the dtsConfig file. For example, I can get the newServerName using the SQL Task, then how can I assign the newServerName value to the DataSource in the package configuration file? Is this possible?
Thanks,
Andrew
I've deployed my ssis pkg to the server and created a sql job to run this pkg. So far, everything is fine. Today, I got a request to change some variables inside the package which is part of the .dtsconfig.  I want to edit the deployed .dtsConfig but it won't allow me and always complained  that this file has been opened by another program. I am sure i've closed my ssis designer and other notpad, why can't I edit and save .dtsconfig file?

I just ran a testbed of 4 types of SQL queries:1. inline SQL with a StringBuilder2. managed sql3. SQL text processing (@SQL as varchar(5000); SET @SQL = 'SELECT ' + @var...)4. a regular sproc that has the columns and table name hard coded1,2, and 4 always end up at about the same time given the averages.3 is always at last 1.5 times slower, and usually closed to 2 times.1 and 2 both use StringBuilders, the code is a direct copy, and 3 is a copy as well.My managed SQL is: [Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure] public static void usp_Items_Select_Managed(SqlString table, SqlString name, SqlString value) { // sql StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder(); stringBuilder.AppendFormat( "SELECT {0}.* FROM {0} WHERE {0}.{1} = {2}", table, col, value ); SqlConnection sqlConnection = new SqlConnection("context connection=true"); SqlCommand sqlCommand = new SqlCommand(stringBuilder.ToString(), sqlConnection); sqlConnection.Open(); SqlContext.Pipe.Send(sqlCommand.ExecuteReader()); sqlConnection.Close(); }Is there anything wrong with my Managed SQL, or is this just the way that it is?Thanks
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running a package on SQL Server 7, SP2 created in the same environment.
When running a package from DTS Designer, I get an execution status of "Error Occurred" in the Package Execution Status dialog on one of the data pump tasks I'm running along with the number of rows inserted. When I double-click on the task, I get the following message: " The Connection is currently being used by a task. The connection cannot be closed or reused".
Both the exception log for the task and the package, specified for error output, indicate the task ran successfully and the clients confirm that the appropriate number of rows have been inserted in the table. Has anyone encountered this error that can explain the cause/cure?

Hi.
I posted similar stuff in one of my previous topic. what i need to do is parse database name runtime
means sample example is
USE <%1>
GO
SELECT * FROM Table_Name
here instead of <%1> i need to pass Test DB name
USE Test
GO
SELECT * FROM Table_Name
my .sql file contains <%1> so i need to replace it
i tried like
declare @t varchar(50)
declare @chg22 varchar(500)
set @t = 'Test'
set @chg22 = 'USE <%1> GO'
set @chg22 = REPLACE(@chg22,'<%1>',@t)
exec(@chg22)
SELECT * FROM Table_Name
but i am not getting it..in above example i am just took one line select * from table_name but actually in .sql file more that 300 lines are there so i m not able to concatenate it..

We run a regular query through Excel that is linked to a Microsoft SQL Server data source.
We have run this query routinely for the past few years. Suddenly this query has started returning an error message - “[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] [SQL Server] Difference of two datetime columns caused overflow at runtime�. It seems to be a common error (as per Google search) however I don’t want to go messing around with something I don’t fully understand. Can anyone point me in the direction of what to look out for?
