I'm doing a bulk insert from a text file to sql server 7
I'm getting an error:
Server: Msg 4867, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Bulk insert data conversion error (overflow) for row 1, column 169 (LOT_WIDTH).
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'STREAM' reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.
The statement has been terminated.
Now my lot-width field coming in is defined as a numeric 9(5).
My table is defined as an INT.
I receive the following error message when I try to use the Bulk Insert Task to load BCP data into a table:
Error: 0xC002F304 at Bulk Insert Task, Bulk Insert Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.The bulk load failed. The column is too long in the data file for row 1, column 4. Verify that the field terminator and row terminator are specified correctly.Bulk load data conversion error (overflow) for row 1, column 1 (rowno).".
Task failed: Bulk Insert Task
In SSMS I am able to issue the following command and the data loads into a TableName table with no error messages: BULK INSERT TableName FROM 'C:DataDbTableName.bcp' WITH (DATAFILETYPE='widenative');
What configuration is required for the Bulk Insert Task in SSIS to make the data load? BTW - the TableName.bcp file is bulk copy file as bcp widenative data type. The properties of the Bulk Insert Task are the following: DataFileType: DTSBulkInsert_DataFileType_WideNative RowTerminator: {CR}{LF}
Any help getting the bcp file to load would be appreciated. Let me know if you require any other information, thanks for all your help. Paul
I'm trying to use Bulk insert for the first time and getting the following error. I think it might have something to do with my Format File and from the error msg there's a conversion error for the first column. In my database the Field is nvarchar(6) so my best guess is to use SQLNChar for the first column. I've checked the end of each line is CR LF therefore the is correct for line 7 right?
Msg 4863, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Bulk load data conversion error (truncation) for row 1, column 1 (ASXCode). Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error. Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".
BULK INSERTtbl_ASX_Data_temp FROM 'M:DataASXImportTest.txt' WITH (FORMATFILE='M:DataASXSQLFormatImport.Fmt')
I'm just learning SSIS and I've hit my first bump. I am doing a bulk import from a tab delimited text file to an empty sql table that has a Idendity column defined. How do I tell the bulk insert task to skip that column when inserting from the text file. If I remove the identity column it imports the data fine, but I want to create the indentity column in the table too.
I am attempting to bulk insert a comma delimited text file with double quotes as the text qualifier but I keep getting an error message(EOF) on the bulk insert.
I think the problem lies in my format file (see below)
Please take a look and let me know what I am missing?
Thanks, Matt

I do read a few article saying that after apply SP2 and hotfixes, this error should be fix, but unfortunately, it is not in my case, what should i do to fix it?
This is my script: - BULK INSERT wng01_work..nw_business_person FROM 'g:SQLFTPCDIS_Extractew_worker.dat' WITH ( MAXERRORS = 1, FORMATFILE ='g:sqlftpcdis_extractew_work.fmt' )
When I try to execute the code, I get the following error, on this line: select @cmd = @cmd + ' with (Fieldterminator = ',')'
Msg 141, Level 15, State 1, Procedure Imp_Header_PO_sp, Line 46
A SELECT statement that assigns a value to a variable must not be combined with data-retrieval operations.
I've tried to find a fix for this error, but it seams to only relate to a select statement and not a Bulk Insert. Can someone please help me figure out how to fix this error?
Simple test project. Created Flat File connection, database connection (both local), and Bulk Insert Task. When running the package I get the following error:
[Bulk Insert Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.Bulk load: An unexpected end of file was encountered in the data file.".
I've tried different settings for the Flat File config, and the database connection, but still get the error. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Help! I am importing a large comma delimited text file into an existing table useing the BULK INSERT command. The table is 4 colums (char16, char16, varchar50, char1). The first 100 or so lines go in without an error. then, I recieve an error stateing that an entry is too long for the field in the database, and kicks me out. The entry is 50 characters, which is allowed. Any ideas why this would happen?
bulk insert DB_Kash.dbo.tb_category from 'C:cpdataSUPPLIER_5305OUTPUTTb_Category.txt' with (formatfile = 'C:b_category.txt')
This works on one sql server and the same code does not work on another server.I have taken care to see that the path is appropriate. Are there any server settings involved? The table structure is the same in both cases and the select into nulk copy option has been selected. The table has full text indexing set on it but I don't think that this would make any difference. The only error it gives is "ILE DB Stream reported an error.The stream does not provide any expalanation regarding this error." Something like this.
Infact the same format file and datafile work fine when I am doing BCP. I have tried with select into bulk copy option on and off too. Any info on this is greatly appreciated.
Hi, Can someone help me out with capturing the bulk insert error.I have a job which calls a procedure in which I used the bulk insert command .If the bulk insert is failing due to some reason as wrong delimitor,wrong path etc then the job fails.I need to track that error and see that the job doesnt stop and goes onto the next cursor record. Thanks, Nodbek
I use code below to upload a csv file to SQL but got an error said that
Msg 4860, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Cannot bulk load. The file "C:Test.csv" does not exist. BULK INSERT Test FROM 'C:Test.csv' WITH ( FIELDTERMINATOR = ',', ROWTERMINATOR = '' ) GO
I have a query for bulk insert. It works fine. But when I use it today and run into following error message. error 7301:Cannot obtain the required interface ("IID_IColumnsInfo") from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".
SET @Sql = 'BULK INSERT #FVF_Tmp FROM ''' + @FilePath +'''' + ' WITH (BATCHSIZE = 100000,FIRSTROW = 2,TABLOCK, DATAFILETYPE = '''+ 'widechar' + ''')' EXECUTE (@Sql)
The @FilePath points to a .csv file
then use data in temp table inser into a permanent table.
I do not understand the error handling of SQL Server here. Any error inbulk insert seems to halt the current T-SQL statement entirely, renderingit impossible to log an error. The first statement below executes asexpected, and were I to replace "print" with something meaningful I coulddo some useful error handling. The second statement just seems to totallybail out after the error, preventing me from doing any useful errorhandling. This is a problem b/c I would like to schedule bulk inserts andneed to be notified if there is a problem.The following can be run in QA to demonstrate:print 'BEFORE TYPICAL ERROR'raiserror('Some Error', 16, 10)if (@@ERROR <> 0) print 'I can catch and log this error - good!' elseprint 'I can not catch and log this error - bad!'print 'AFTER TYPICAL ERROR'goprint 'BEFORE BULK INSERT'Bulk insert Northwind.dbo.ordersfrom 'ThisFileDoesNotExist'if (@@ERROR <> 0) print 'I can catch and log this error - good!' elseprint 'I can not catch and log this error - bad!'print 'AFTER BULK INSERT'goTIA,Dave

I am new to MS DTS and i am using MS SQL 2000 as my database. I am trying to do a Bulk insert using MS DTS package. The package is trying to load data from Text file to a SQL 2000 table. When runninh the package i am getting an error saying that 1 task failed during execution and the task is shown in red colour indicating that the task has failed. Now when i get the details of the error it shows the follows:
Could not bulk insert because the file D:DtsFile.txt could not be opened. Operation system error code: 21 (The device is not ready).
Please help me in solving this problem, if any one has got this error and resolved or have any idea of the error please help. :)

I think based on my testing so far (also tried ' ' as the rowtermination param, but then it gives me a truncation error for the first row only, leading me to think it cannot find the end of the row that way.
I am still looking through archives and on the web, but have not seen anything specific to my issue yet...and cannot believe that I am the first to BULK INSERT this kind of data.

Msg 4862, Level 16, State 1, Server PATH-SQLDEV, Line 2 Cannot bulk load because the file "c:DATABATCHBCPFormat.fmt" could not be read. Operating system error code (null).
Above is the error I get. The problem is I do not know what is causing this error. It occurs when I attempt to use SQLCMD with bulk insert.
I am using SQLserver 2005 and I have a similar set up in a test database that works, why this format file does not is beyond me, but my experience is when the format file has an error in it, such as a mispelled datatype or a incorrect column number, the error will zero in on that, rather then declare the entire file unreadable. Furthermore if I go into the file, change something so where it is incorrect (like a column number) it will zero in on that error. So I know that the format file can be read. If I knew what this error was all about I would at least know where to begin in fixing it. I have also tried using a very small sample file for the data being inserted. Same error.
I am trying to bulk insert a text file into SQL 2005 table. When I execute the bulk insert I get the error
"Msg 4860, Level 16, State 1, Line 1. Cannot bulk load. The file "\ENDUSER-SQLEnduserTextB1020063.txt" does not exist."
The text file that it is saying does not exist I recently created thru my code. I can open the file but only when I rename the file will the Bulk Insert work. After creating the text file I am moving it to the server that SQL server is running on. Also if I run sp_FileExists it also says the file does not exist unless again I rename the file then this stored procedure recognizes the file. I dont' know if I have a permission issue or what is the problem. Any help would be appreiated.
"Bulk insert data conversion error (truncation) for row 1, column 1 (id)."
when you get the error above or similar in sql server 2000 does it continue inserting the data by truncating it or does it stop beacause looking at the data that i have got it seems to continue inserting the data but just truncates the colunm. i have tried it several time its seeems to be consistent.
I have data that has white spaces after the actual data e.g. '00093 ' hence i am happy aslong as i can be sure that it does always continue as i will be loading alot of data using a similar process.
hence my question is that will it load all the data all the time and just truncate it to fit the column size?
I am having a problem using the Bulk Insert task. I am getting the msg: SSIS package "Package.dtsx" starting. Error: 0xC002F304 at Bulk Insert Task, Bulk Insert Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "You do not have permission to use the bulk load statement.". Task failed: Bulk Insert Task SSIS package "Package.dtsx" finished: Success.
I have been granted ownership of the database. I also tried in one of my old databases that I just finished developing and I got the same msg.
The file I am importing is comma delimited. I am importing it into a table that has 50 bytes allocation for each field (the max input field size is 40 bytes).
The connection is solid; Format = “Specify� RowDelimiter = {CR}{LF} columnDelimiter = Comma {,}
No other options are set.
The data looks like: "tstLName","tstFname","000 N Tst DR","IDAHO sp","ID","00000000",
Does sql server have a way to handle errors in a sproc which would allowone to insert rows, ignoring rows which would create a duplicate keyviolation? I know if one loops one can handle the error on a row by rowbasis. But is there a way to skip the loop and do it as a bulk insert?It's easy to do in Access, but I'm curious to know if SQL Server propercan handle like this. I am guessing that a looping operation would beslower to execute?
I want to do a bulk insert of a file located on a different machine then the SQL Server database.
machine1 and machine2 are running Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition. SQL Server v8.0 is running on machine2. Neither machine1 nor machine2 are in any domain. (These are servers at a hosting company.)
I use a UNC filename to specify the file to load. It looks something like this:
\machine1.someplace.com eportdata eport200602.txt
I get this error message when I attempt the bulk insert using SQL Query Analyzer:
Server: Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Could not bulk insert because file '\machine1.someplace.com eportdata eport200602.txt' could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.). The share reportdata on machine1 has READ permissions for EVERYONE. What do I need to do enable allow the database machine (machine2) to access the files on machine1?
Using BULK Insert with a format file I am receiving the following message:

I have am having some issues bulk inserting from a flat file (CSV) to the database. I have also tried this by using the import and export wizard and get the following error:
I dont understand what the issue. The table that i have created looks like this:
CREATE TABLE IderaPatchAnalyzer ( IP_Adresse varchar(64) NOT NULL, Release_ varchar(50) NOT NULL, Level_ varchar(50)NOT NULL, Edition_ varchar(50) NOT NULL,
[Code] .....
I have in the changed the outputcolumnwidth in Ip_Adresse to 64. The length of the cells are not near 50 however i want it to be sure that its not the case. When I try to do the same in my SSIS project, i also get an error. I do get a warning: Truncation may occur due to inserting data from data flow column """"KB Available""" with a length o..... in that column there are max 5 varchar:  "yes" and "no". The  """"KB Available""" is the column name in the flat file (CSV), I have made checkmark in Column names in the first data row.Â
