Hi, I'm importing 10 csv files with a different name daily. If the file does not exists in a directory (which I have in variable) I want to write an error message, if it does I want to proceed to the for each loop. How do I do this? Any suggestions?
Hi,
Here is the steps I should take...
1- Check for the log table and find run status ( there is a date field which tells the day run)
2- Lets say last day was 2008-05-15, So I have to check A1.DDDDMMYYY file exists in the folder for each
day like A1.20080516,A1.20080517 and A1.20060518 ( until today)
3- if A1.20080516 text file exist then I have to move it to the table and same thing for other dates
like if A1.20080517 exists I have to load it to table and so on
it looks like for each loop, first I have to get the last date and then I have to check the file exists for each date and
if the date file exists then I have to load it into table...
Please tell me How can I do it. it looks complex looping...
thanks,

Dear all,
I am deploying programatically an Excel 2007 file to a SQL Server 2005 Reporting Server. The problem is that if a file with the same name already exists, that file isn't replaced. I would like the opposite to happen. I'm using the following code:

Greetings, I have just arrived back into the country (NZ) and back into ASP.NET.
I am having trouble with the following:An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file (file location).../Database.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
It has only begun since i decided i wanted to use IIS, I realise VWD comes with its own localhost, but since it is only temporary, i wanted a permanent shortcut on my desktop to link to my intranet page.
Anyone have any ideas why i am getting the above error? have searched many places on the internet and not getting any closer.
Cheers ~ J

I am going to use the BCP utility to export data from a table in a SQL Server 2000 database to .csv file, but I must determine if the file already exists. The BCP export code it going to be in a stored procedure and will be configured to run every two hours so I must have a way of checking if the file exists prior to executing the BCP instruction. If the file exists then no big deal just abort and two hours later it will try again, at some point the file will not exist and the export will export all the data since the last export - but normally this will happen every two hours; I just need to make sure that the "other peoples" utility has proccessed the file (and by definition deleted it).
It makes me no difference whether the best way to do this would be using a batch file that execute and returns true/false or a VBScript or if there really is a way to do it in TSQL. I just cannot seem to find any way.
I would like to look for .mdf i.e. databasename.mdf file and see if it exists. I would also like to do the same for other files such as databasename.ldf, etc.
For each one of these files I do know their directories but would like to know how to check for that file in those related directories.
Thanks
I know allot of folks are having this problem and I tried lots of things but nothing works. I understand the problem is coping the SQL Express on another server is the problem - I just not sure what to do?
Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:2.0.50727.42; ASP.NET Version:2.0.50727.42
This is the last statement on the Stack Trace:
SqlException (0x80131904): An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file e:wwwdata81d0493fwwwApp_DataTestDatabase.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.]
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) +735091
I checked my server forum and they said I had to name a database:
Example: Database=(unique name);
But this didn't work either.
I just tried a simple web project that has only one database and one table in SQL Express with one sqldatasource and one datagrid. It works fine on my pc but when I use the copy function in Visio Studio 2005 Pro - I can't run the site on the remote server: www.myjewelrydirect.com
I tried coping the database manually. I tried disconnecting the database before I copy it. Below is my connection statement:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="TestDB" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|TestDatabase.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
With all the comments in these forums - this must be a bug.
I have been working on this problem for over 2 weeks - HELP!
Hello World,
I'm new to SSIS and would like a little assistance getting started, if possible...
Here is what I want to do:
Check if file exist (C:DTS UpgradeFilexxx.txt) --->
Archive file (C:DTS UpgradeArchive) --->
Check if file has data (true or false)
AND/OR
If there are any good website that have good direction, let me know
Thanks in advance for your help!!!
Is there is a piece for code ot sample code that can let me check if a file exists? Has any one done this before?
Thanks
Greetings all.
How can I check for file exitence in a specified folder using TSQL?
I can think of a couple of ways to do this so any feedback would be appreciated.
Load the contents of a folder in to a temporay table and check the table for file name. I can do this with something like:
insert into myFiles
exec master..xp_cmdshell 'dir /B /OND filePath*.txt'
Or maybe use OLE Automation Sproc? But I am not sure which method I should use.
Please advise.
Hi, can someone tell me how to check if a file exists. If it exists then i want to continue with the process and if it fails then send a mail to me.
Thanks in advane.
In SSIS, I need an easy way to see if a file exists, and if not wait for it until a timeout period expires. Here are the options I've discovered, along with the issues I've had:
a) The File Watcher task from www.sqlis.com
This was my first attempt. The task works great, BUT only detects when there is a change on the file. If the file already exists, it keeps waiting which is not the behavior I need.
b) The WMI Event Task
There is very sparce documentation on this event and how to write a WQL query. There are numerous examples of monitoring a folder and if any files appear, cause an event to happen. I need to detect for a specific file. I found maybe one example of this using "PartComponent" but wasn't able to get the sytax right to make it work for me. I also need to access a remote file share using a UNC path (e.g. \servernamepathfile.txt) which I could not get to work.
c) Script Task using the File.Exists() method
I imported the System.IO namespace, and used a File.Exists(\servernamepathfile.txt) with actual success, but am not sure of the best way to continue to wait if the file is not found immediately. I also want to modularize this approach so I can wait for several files simultaneously so was thinking of implementing this script task as a package by itself to accept variables (filepath & timeout period) but need to know if anyone has had success with this approach.
I'm open to suggestions or ways to get options a) and b) to work for my needs.
Thanks!

Hello,Using Enterprise Manager, I deleted from my database the only tablethat contained records (Right-Click on Table, Choose "Delete Table").My expectation was that the LARGE .mdf file would be reduced to minimalsize (at least as small as the Northwind MDF). However, it's still 4+Gig in size!! (Northwind is 2.62 MB). This is a problem, bc I deletedthe table in order to recapture hard drive space.NOTE: I already tried using Shrink Database in EM. This significantlyreduced the size of the .mdf file from its original (i.e. pre-delete)size of 38 Gig to present size of 4 Gig.What can I do to further reduce the size of the MDF file?Thank you.

I want execute my package when a set of files exists in a
directory. What is the best way of doing this?
I have been successful in creating a WMI Event Watcher Task
that executes when any file (the first file) is added to a directory. But
I can not figure out the WQL for a specific file or set files.
What have you done with in SSIS to trigger the package?

Hi,
I need to check if a file exists (using a filename pattern as the filename will be dynamic) in a directory.
I am trying to use the File.Exists() method in a Script Task. However, it does not allow me to do something like -
File.Exists("C:Files*.xls")
Or
File.Exists("C:Filesabc*.xls")
Any help on this?
Thanks in advance.

Usual way to check if file exists
DECLARE @File_Exists INT
EXEC Master.dbo.xp_fileexist 'serverBSQL_Backupfile.bak', @File_Exists OUT
print @File_Exists
1
And if check folder, can use "nul", but it doesn't work for UNC path
DECLARE @File_Exists INT
EXEC Master.dbo.xp_fileexist 'serverBSQL_Backup
ul', @File_Exists OUT
print @File_Exists
0
If use xp_subdirs like:
EXEC master.dbo.xp_subdirs 'serverBSQL_Backups'
If the folder doesn't exists,
Msg 22006, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
xp_subdirs could not access 'ServerBSQL_Backups*.*': FindFirstFile() returned error 67, 'The network name cannot be found.'

I want to poll an ftp site to see when files arrive, then I would like to download them, and move them into a different directory on the ftp site. It seems like I would have to do a lot to work around the limitations of the FTP Task. Is it capable of this sort of work? If not is there a 3rd party task that is better suited for ftp operations within SSIS?

I have been playing with a Standard Version of VS 2005 and SSE 2005 and I just cannot get these two to interact together well. I am sure it is a noob problem but I have seen this error addressed on this forum and I am just not getting it. Here is exactly what I am doing.
I want to create a database within SSE using the Management Studio. Then, I want to connect to it with VS2005. Both SSE and VS2005 are local. I just cant seem to get this to work.
I always seem to get this error "An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataSecond.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share."
One thing... I create the website with Location: HTTP. I don't even know anymore why I do this.. I think because I like to be able to pull up a browser and get to my app. Other than that I am doing nothing special. However, I get the above error when I hit F5 to run the app inside VS2005.
Is there someplace where a complete noob can find a thorough and simple covering of this? Again, I have read through some of the previous posts on this and I don't understand too many of them and it seems as if there are at least 13 causes of which I don't know which one I have. Help!

Hi, not sure my subject title makes it clear what I want but here it is.
I have a workflow which basically looks at an excel file in a folder on the local drive and then does loads of stuff to it. Everytime I want to process a different excel file that is in the same location al I have to do is change the value of a single local variable, which is just the name of the excel file.
Is there a way to make this automatic? For exmaple....could I somehow put my whole workflow inside a loop that looks inside that local folder and one by one, get the name of the file, assigns the name to that global variable, and then runs the flow...and continues to do that until it gets to the end??
any help would be greatly appreciated...thanks!!!!

I am trying to move files from one directory to anonther using the For Each Loop Container and a File System Task. However, on the FIRST iteration of the ForEach Loop the variable that I am setting to the 0 index of the For Each Loop is returning me a valid directory with no file ( path only ) from who knows where ????
On the second iteration of the For Each Loop everything works as expected and I get the full path and file name and it iterates through all the files in the directory o.k.
So I have had to put a Hack to skip the fist iteration of the loop and then execute the File Task on the second iteration but I dont see anyone else doing this.
Where in the heck is it getting this odd directory from on the fist iteration ( its not my User varible because I am initializing it to \nowhereofile ). What am I doing wrong?
Hi Guys,
I'm importing logs from multiple servers from CSV format into a table. Inside the loop the 1st thing I do is insert the FileName into a table to ensure that I never process the same file twice.
The problem is that multiple servers produce the same filename, so if server A produces Log20061110.csv - when I import the log from server B ( also called Log20061110.csv ) into the table, it of course runs into a problem.
If there was some way for me to get an MD5 Hash of the file as a variable that would be solve my problem.
Does anyone know how I could accomplish that?
Thanks

I have an SSIS package which is suppose to read this db file and insert it into the SQL 2005 table. But when I execute this package it goes into a loop, reading the file over and over again. The package fails after inserting some 10 million rows ( actual rows are not more then 270,000) giving the error msg 'Not enough space on temporary disk'.
On examing the data transfered into SQL there are duplicate rows.
I also used the import export wizard (thinking there might be some error in Package code) provided by SQL to transfer the data from .db to SQL but it has the same result(goes in a loop).
I would appreciate any help in this problem. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks
