Extended Connection Managers For Data Flow Destinations?
Mar 13, 2006
It looks like you can only extended connection managers for data flow sources.
Is there anyway to develop a custom connection manager for the SQL destination in the data flow destinations?
I can€™t use hardcoded connection strings. I can€™t use configurations because they are not encrypted. I already have managed code that will give the corrected connection string. I already have a custom connection manager that I use from the data flow sources. I just need one for data flow destinations but I can€™t see a way to extend into the OLE DB?

Hi,
A long long time ago I asked for the ability to define an order in which you insert data into multiple destinations in a single data-flow. This was to get around the problem of loading tables in the same data-flow that have FK relationships between them.
My chosen alternative at the moment is to load the table with the unique key first and drop the data for the table with the FK into a raw file and load it in a seperate data-flow. Another alternative is to disable FK constraints and reenable after but I've chosen the raw file method.
Now that I'm using SSIS on a real project this is becoming a much bigger problem that I ever envisaged it might be. Its rare that I'm building stuff where I don't have to use raw files for this very reason and this means that I have god knows how many raw files hanging around all over the place.
I suppose the reason for this post is to flag the importance of this requested feature. I really hope that this makes it into Katmai. Or into a service pack would be even better!
Its a bit of a failing at the moment.
Are there any chances that this will make it into Katmai? its one of my biggest bug-bears about SSIS v1.

Hi All,
I wanna know if we can have more than one "OLEDB Destination" within a Data Flow Task, I want to use the same data flow and write to two different tables in a database with some changes. If we cannot do this within the same data flow what is the best way to do this.
Thanks

Is there a way to programatically set (using expressions, variables) the FastLoadMaxInsertCommitSize property of an OLEDB destination in a data flow for Fast Load Operations.
Basically, what I want to do is based on the # of records which are going to be inserted want to set the FastLoadMaxInsertCommit size.

Hi,
The further i get with doing my current SSIS package the more i am starting to wonder about best practices and performance.
My current package loops through CSV files in a specified location and extracts events from these files. Each file contains multiple events which are a mixture of different types. Depending on the event there are a different number of comma seperated values. In the package i firstly set each event to one column seperated by a comma delimeter. I then create an array for the event which is split by the delimeter. In a script i weed out all elements of the array that are common to all events and set the remaining events to another array. After some processing i come to my conditional split transformation which splits the processing of each event based on the EventID. This is where i'm having doubts on whether i have approched the package correctly. There are approximately 60 different events so each one of these has a seperate pipeline to process the remaining parameters in the array and output them to the destination table. The destination table is differnet for each ID. Is it viable to have this amount conditions and paths when creating the pacakge and is this likely to have any detrimental effect on performance. Is there possibly another way that i could approach this problem?
Many thanks, i hope that made sense.

What I am trying to do is move data from a staging table into a live environment and then update the staging table AFTER the row has move (and not errored). There does not seem to be a reliable method for doing this.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

When I set up a Flat File, Excel, or XML source, I have to specify the complete file name, in particular the folder where the file exists. I would like to specify the location dynamically, via a variable or property -- but how?

Greetings my SSIS friends
This is probably a silly question but what exactly is the purpose of creating Data Sources when it is possible to set up individual connection managers?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hello Experts,
I€™m new at SSIS and would like to try the follow easy function.
Just get some data from my database und put into a text-file.
All function going well.
Right now I€™ve got just one problem I can€™t resolve.
At the window €śConnection Managers€? are the connections I used in my project. But how can I make this connection more dynamical? E.g. I have a connection.txt file and the Connection Manager should set his properties after read this txt-file.
Have someone an idea?
Best regards,
Alex

apologies if this is the wrong group ..
whenever I create an Integrated Services project and attempt to add a Connection Manager I get the error
Connection Manager 'blah' is not properly installed on this computer.
(Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.Design)
This happens with all menu options except New Connection..
I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005 and made sure I have selected everything in each case
what am I missing?
Thanks
Chris

Hi,
I am unsure if i am managing my connections in the correct way... but as it stands we have them in a .dtsConfig file that each package references in order to get the relevant details..
This is working fine, except that in total our ETL project uses 6 different connections, and none of the packages utilise all 6.
This leads to an error message upon opening up EVERY package stating that there are connection strings in the .dtsConfig that are unused, yeah, thats the idea!
The way i have gotten around this, is to just include all 6 connection managers in every package, but my question is, is there a better way to achieve this same result??
are we going about this in a bit of a cackhanded way?
any incite would be useful..
Best Regards
Chris

I'm trying to create a new package and keep getting different errors. The package uses the same .NET ODBC provider as another package.
I can test the connection fine.
When I add a DataReader Source and select my connection I get the following warning:
Not all connection managers have been set. Set all connection managers.
If I click the refresh button I get this warning message:
Error at Data Flow Task [DataReader Source [6338]]: The runtime connection manager with the ID "" cannot be found. Verify that the connection manager collection has a connection manager with that ID.
All my collections have ID's and they are all read only.
If I ignore those warning I can enter my SQL command and go to the column mappings tab and see all the columns I selected but I then see several warnings all saying the same thing.
Driver does not support this function
I'm not able to close the Advanced Editor at this point.
Any ideas?

I'm trying to create a custom connection manager and I have ConnectionType in the DtsConnection attribute set to "MSMDM". When I tried to create one in a package I got:
The connection type "MSMDM" specified for connection manager "{A8543B4B-41D9-4E69-9580-3D1A491AD719}" is not recognized as a valid connection manager type. This error is returned when an attempt is made to create a connection manager for an unknown connection type. Check the spelling in the connection type name.
(TestHarness1)
So, a few questions:
What are the valid connection manager types?
Why can I not create a new connection manager type of my own?
If I cant create new connection manager types then the purpose of being able to build custom connecton managers is defeated. Hence, what's the point in giving us the ability to create custom connection managers?

Hi,
My database admin just migrated my packages from development to user testing server.
My packages configured to read the connection manager properties from the .dtsconfig.
But I am getting "The connection "CRPRDNMSQEZ.CIReporting2" is not found"
CRPRDNMSQEZ.CIReporting2 is being my connection manager.
I did find and replace server name in the dtsconfig but I guess it didn't work.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
We are using a €śFlat File Connection Manager€? in our SSIS package.
The package fails occasionally while loading in the validation phase with the error
€ś-1073659899,0x,The connection type "FLATFILE" specified for connection manager "<some name>" is not recognized as a valid connection manager type. This error is returned when an attempt is made to create a connection manager for an unknown connection type. Check the spelling in the connection type name.
This error is not returned always.
Also I feel €śFLATFILE€? is a valid type of connection manager. This value €śFLATFILE€? is inserted by the editor and not manually typed. This is a weird behavior of SSIS.
Sometimes I get this error with respect to some other connection manager used in the package as well. €śOLEDB€? is the type of that other connection manager.
Has anybody faced similar issue earlier?
Please let me know some thoughts, suggestions, and possible work-arounds to avoid this error as this is very critical for us.
Regards

Hi Experts here,
Sorry if this query had been raised earlier. While In DTS Packages we retrieve connection details for all Connections in a Package from a table and then assign them to the following global Variables
gv_Source_User, gv_Source_Pwd, gv_Source_DataSource, gv_Source_InitialCatalog
Finally we reassign these variables to repective Connection Properties using Dynamic Properties Task. After Migrating to SSIS though we are able to assign almost all variables to Properties of Connection Managers via Expression except the Password which we donot find in the drop down list in order to assign gv_Source_Pwd.
Is there any work around to assign passwords dynamically?
Many Thanks

Hi,
I'm trying to use an OLE DB connection manager from inside a custom log provider, but can't get the code to work - I get an exception "A first chance exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' occurred in SSEALogProvider.dll" on the last line of the code below.
I know the connection is OLE DB from looking at .CreationName.
I've tried both with & without ToConnectionManager90(), but appearently not in the right way, both cases gives the same exception.
Any tips on what I'm missing? All the examples I've seen are either creating (instead of using) connection managers, or are file based connection managers. Any and all help much appreciated!
Thanks/Kristian

connections[ConfigString].CreationName != "OLEDB")

If I have 6-8 queries running in parallel, Whether having a Single connection Manager (for the same source) for all the Extract performs faster or having Distinct Connection Manager for each of the extract performs faster ?

Firstly the disclaimer: im a total SSIS bunny.
Ok, with that out of the way...
What i want to do is have data read from an MSMQ message (which will be a simple XML message) and have it transformed and inserted into a simple table. Sound simple, but i cant work out how to do it.
I started a new Integration Services Project and dropped a Data Flow task on the Control flow tab, then double-click it to go to the data flow tab. I have added a MSMQ connection manager which points at my private queue and i can hit the test button and it sees it tests ok. How do i wire that into my data flow?
On my dataflow tab i have a SQL Server Destination (set to the local SQl server instance) and ive been trying a DataReader source and try setting the Advanced Editor "Connection Manager" column on IDBConnection row to point to my MSMQ connection manager. I get some error "cannot aquire a managed connection from the run-time connection manager". How do i get a Data Flow source which reads the XML message off my MSMQ connection manager??
On the Control Flow tab you can add a Message Queue Task and i can bind it to my MSMQ connection manager and set it up as a recieve task etc, but how do i use that?
Help!

I have a Data Flow Task within a ForEach loop container.  The source of the flow is ADO.NET connection and the destination is a Flat File Connection.  I loop through a collection of strings in the ForEach loop.  Based on the string content, I write some data to the same destination file in each iteration overwriting the previous version. I am running into following Errors:
[Flat File Destination [38]] Warning: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
[Flat File Destination [38]] Error: Cannot open the datafile "Example.csv".
[SSIS.Pipeline] Error: Flat File Destination failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC020200E.
I know what's happening but I don't know how to fix it. Â The first time through the ForEach loop, the destination file is updated. Â The second time is when this error pops up. Â I think it's because the first iteration is not closing the destination file. How do I force a close of the file within Data Flow task or through a subsequent Script Task.This works within a SQL 2008 package on one server but not within SQL 2012 package on a different server.

During the execution of SSIS Package which is populating huge data into OLEDB Destination from OLEDB Source, then some of the records are getting rejected. Again if we are executing it twice or thrice, the rejected records are getting inserted.
Wants to know, why the records are getting rejected? Target table does not contain any constraints.
Hope to hear soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have set up a new connection as a connection from data source, but I cannot see how to use this connection to create my Data Flow Source. I have tried using an OLE DB connection, but this is painfully slow! The process of loading 10,000 rows takes 14 - 15 minutes. The same process in Access using SQL on a linked table via DSN takes 45 seconds.
Have I missed something in my set up of the OLE DB source / connection? Will a DSN source be faster?
Thanks in advance

Hi, All,
I need to pass a parameter from control flow to data flow. The data flow will use this parameter to get data from a Oracle source.
I have an Execute SQL task in control flow to assign value to the Parameter, next step is a data flow which will need take a parameter in the SQL statement to query the Oracle source,
The SQL Looks like this:
select * from ccst_acctsys_account
where to_char(LAST_MODIFIED_DATE, 'YYYYMMDD') >?
THe problem is the OLE DB source Edit doesn€™t have anything for mapping parameter.
Thanks in Advance

I have an Execute SQL Task that returns a Full Rowset from a SQL Server table and assigns it to a variable objRecs. I connect that to a foreach container with an ADO enumerator using objRecs variable and Rows in first table mode. I defined variables and mapped them to the columns.
I tested this by placing a Script task inside the foreach container and displaying the variables in a messagebox.
Now, for each row, I want to write a record to an MS Access table and then update a column back in the original SQL Server table where I retreived data in the Execute SQL task (i have the primary key). If I drop a Data Flow Task inside my foreach container, how do I pass the variables as input to an OLE DB Destination on the Data Flow?
Also, how would I update the original source table where source.id = objRects.id?
Thank you for your assistance. I have spent the day trying to figure this out (and thought it would be simple), but I am just not getting SSIS. Sorry if this has been covered.
Thanks,
Steve

Dear All!
My package has a Data Flow Task. In Data Flow Task, I use a Script Component and a OLE BD Destination to transform data from txt file to database.
Within Data Flow Task, I want to call File System Task to move file to a folder or any Task of "Control Flow" Tab. So, Does SSIS support this task? Please show me if any

I'm currently setting variables at the package level with an ExecuteSQL task. This works fine. However, I'm now starting to think about restartability midway through a package. It would be nice to have the variable(s) needed in a data flow set within the data flow so that I only have to restart that task.
Is there a way to do that using an SQL statement as the source of the value in a data flow?
OR, when using checkpoints will it save variable settings so that they are available when the package is restarted? This would make my issue a moot point.
