View 3 RepliesHi All ,
I have a CSV file which contains some duplicate record and i have to load this file in SQL server database using SSIS package .
What i have to do is read the file and if the same record entry is occur more than 10 times for a particular unique combination ( like ID , Date , Time ) then i need to take only one record for that occurance.
Plesae suggest , Help ,

I am having a problem where duplicate log statements are being written to a log file (as defined by a log provider).
I believe that this is because in the logging dialog box, I have ticked the checkbox next to a child task to override the logging functionality.
I need to do this because it is a script task and I want to capture "ScriptTaskLogEntry" events (something that I cannot do at the parent level).
However by doing this I seem to get the script events written at the parent, as well as at the Script Task level.
Is there any way of avoiding this, but still capturing the log events from the script task?
Another issue that is possibly linked is that I am getting an error from the log provider:
The SSIS logging provider "SSIS log provider for Text files" failed with error code 0x800700EA ((null)). This indicates a logging error attributable to the specified log provider.
Could this be because of the parent and child task are both attempting to write to the same log provider?
Thanks in advance
I have 3 source for IS flow. One is flat file, one is DB table and one is output bad data. It might be a situation when I could have duplicate primary key since records come from 3 sources (flat file, db table, reject (output) table). Can any one give me suggestion how to handle duplicate primary key problem in this situation.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks..

}
And its giving a error.can anyone say why? or can anyone change this?
The package contains two objects with the duplicate name of "component "SQL Server Destination" (50)" and "component "SQL Server Destination" (22)".
Hi,
First post here. Anyway, I have a question regarding SSIS. I'm currently given a task that requires reading a flat file, applying duplicate removal as well as invalid data removal, processing it, and finally writing it to a SQL Server 2005 DB.
Part of the processing requires checking for partial duplicates in the batches of records provided in the text file. For example, the record contains a a phone number, status, timestamp of creation and various other entries. If a phone number is repeated (meaning, duplicate entry), a column called 'Status' must be checked, and only entries with the status of 'C' is allowed through.
Another part of the processing requires that if the phone number is repeated along with various other entries including status, the timestamp of creation is checked and only the entry with the most recent timestamp is accepted.
I would like to know how to implement this in SSIS without using table objects and scripts, as my experience tells me that doing this in a script can really take a hit on system performance. The task is expected to handle tens of thousands of records in a day.
Any help will be appriciated.
Thanks.
I've a dtsx package which runs nightly to do following:
1. select data from a SQL replicated table
2. do some lookups (Lookup, Derived Column, Multicast, Conditional Split, etc.)
3. insert into another SQL table on another server using "Table or view - fast load", rows per batch = 10000, maximum insert commit size = 10000, and "redirect row" on error output on destination to an error log text file.
Once in a while, I found duplicate records in the error log; these rows cannot be inserted into destination table due to primary constraint. For example, transaction_id=111000 appears twice in the error log but it is a unique key in the source table.
My questions:
1. What could be the cause of duplicating rows during ETL in SSIS? I've asked this before and have spent so much time research but still could not find the reason. This link is from my previous post:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=452319&SiteID=1
2. For a daily extract data with over millions of rows, what would be best to set rows per batch, maximum insert commit size, etc? I've read some posts on this forum and decide to use 10000 for both, but once in a while there's just one duplicate rows that causes the whole batch of 10000 rows not committed.
Thanks for any feedbacks.

ex. from source the file you want to split the record into two, the one with a clean record and the other one with duplicate records
Hi, I am trying to import data from a csv files to a OLE DB Destination. The csv files contains all transactional changes . For example for a particular record the firstname, lastname, email address records change within the same csv file. I need to save only the last updated record from the csv files. I have tried "slowly changing dimensions" but these dont work when there is duplictes within the same csv file. Also have tried 'Sort' but this only stores the first occurance.
Any ideas how i can store the latest changed data within 1 csv file.
Hi,
I recently encountered an error when I created several copies of one package.
It's always nearly the same package with small modifications. I call this packages from a parent package which is part of our datawarehouseing-framework.
The problem is, when copying a packages or using a packages as template the packages' IDs and Task's-IDs are the same. And this isn't only an issue concerning logging!! :
When the parent package calls one of the copied packages the first task is executed in every package parallely. Furthermore ... when I for example set a breakpoint on a data transformation task in one of the packages, the breakpoint is set in all packages on the same task! This is resulting in strange errors because the tasks-states and variable values seem to get mixed up.
Unfortunately there is only a possibility to change the package's ID, but the IDs of tasks are readonly!
One solution is, to create a new package and copy all the tasks to the new package which creates new IDs, but doing so, I have to manually recreate a long list of variables, all the configurations, all the connection-managers once again. Furthermore I loose the layout of tasks.
I found some posts about it here

View 8 Replies View RelatedIn the FLAT FILE source, I have to find the duplicate rows based on the two fields say, "bill number" & "invoice date".
The rows within flat file has like "bill number" which is duplicated on the same "invoice date".
If duplicate rows found then move the duplicate rows into another Flat File.
If not found then move the rows into Sql Server Table.
Pls provide the solution. Thank you
I'm writing to a flat file destination (CSV file) which contains 2 header rows, lets call it Col1 and Col2.
For some reason, the header rows seem to get duplicated in the output - i.e.
Col1,Col2
A,B
Col1,Col2
C,D
Is there any way to resolve this?
I don't want the file to be overwritten everytime since its used for record-keeping purposes.

I am importing a file creating by an application which exports the file into .dbf format. Very unfortunately, this .dbf file can have fields with IDENTICAL column_names. Utilizing ActiveX, I create an ado connection to the .dbf file using a visual foxpro drver. However, and not unexpectantly, I can not do the 'select *' from the file if there are duplicate names.
Can anyone make recommendations here that might help?
Oh, this is SQL200 in case that impacts what you might advise!!!!

I'm doing a group by in an aggregate transformation. I have say 6 columns in the output and I'm grouping on all of them - how can I get duplicate rows in the output? If I do the same select and group by in SQL on the source data I don't get any duplicate rows. In fact out of 6000+ rows I only get 2 duplicates.

View 10 Replies View RelatedHello Everyone:
I am using the Import/Export wizard to import data from an ODBC data source. This can only be done from a query to specify the data to transfer.
When I try to create the tables, for the query, I am getting the following error:
Msg 2714, Level 16, State 4, Line 12
There is already an object named 'UserID' in the database.
Msg 1750, Level 16, State 0, Line 12
Could not create constraint. See previous errors.
I have duplicated this error with the following script:
USE [testing]
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users1]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users1]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users1] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users2]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users2]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users2] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
IF OBJECT_ID ('[testing].[dbo].[users3]', 'U') IS NOT NULL
DROP TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users3]
CREATE TABLE [testing].[dbo].[users3] (
[UserID] bigint NOT NULL,
[Name] nvarchar(25) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [UserID] PRIMARY KEY (UserID)
)
I have searched the "2714 duplicate error msg," but have found references to duplicate table names, rather than multiple field names or column name duplicate errors, within a database.
I think that the schema is only allowing a single UserID primary key.
How do I fix this?
TIA
Hello Experts,
I am createing one task (user control) in SSIS. I have property grid in my GUI and 2 buttons (OK & Cancle).
PropertyGrid has Properties like SourceConnection, OutputConnection etc....right now I am able to populate Connections in list box next to Source and Output Property.
Now my question to you guys is depending on Source Connection it should read that text file associated with connection manager. After validation it should pick header (first line of text file bases on record type) and write it into new file when task is executed. I have following code for your reference. Please let me know I am going in right direction or not..
What should go here ?
->Under Class A
public override DTSExecResult Execute(Connections connections, VariableDispenser variableDispenser, IDTSComponentEvents componentEvents, IDTSLogging log, object transaction)
{
//Some code to read file and write it into new file
return DTSExecResult.Success;
}
public const string Property_Task = "CustomErrorControl";
public const string Property_SourceConnection = "SourceConnection";
public void LoadFromXML(XmlElement node, IDTSInfoEvents infoEvents)
{
if (node.Name != Property_Task)
{
throw new Exception(String.Format("Invalid task element '{0}' in LoadFromXML.", node.Name));
}
else
{
try
{
_sourceConnectionId = node.Attributes.GetNamedItem(Property_SourceConnection).Value;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
infoEvents.FireError(0, "LoadFromXML", ex.Message, "", 0);
}
}
}
public void SaveToXML(XmlDocument doc, IDTSInfoEvents infoEvents)
{
try
{
// // Create Task Element
XmlElement taskElement = doc.CreateElement("", Property_Task, "");
doc.AppendChild(taskElement);
// // Save source FileConnection
XmlAttribute sourcefileAttribute = doc.CreateAttribute(Property_SourceConnection);
sourcefileAttribute.Value = _sourceConnectionId;
taskElement.Attributes.Append(sourcefileAttribute);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
infoEvents.FireError(0, "SaveXML", ex.Message, "", 0);
}

In UI Class there is OK Click event.

Hi all,
In a foreachloop, I am inserting records into a flat file which is working fine. But the thing is that as the file grows, it takes longer for it to locate the EOF(End of File) of the flat file so as to insert the records.
I have around 70-100 lines written to the file at each loop and there are more than 20k records to be looped. wihich means that at the end I should be having 1400k - 20000k line in the text file.
One solution would be to insert the records at the start of the file itself so that it does not has to lookup the EOF each time before writting.
Another would be to generate separate files and then merge it.
Any idea how can this can be done?
Beside this I have to zip the file and then SFTP to a given address.
Any suggestion or help would be welcome.

Historically I've always written a VB script to copy a file from a sharepoint library. I don't like this method because I have to input a username & password in the script and maintain a config file.
Yesterday I was playing around with using a file system task. The sharepoint file has a UNC path so why not? I created a simple test package with a single file system task that copies the sharepoint file (addressed via UNC) to another network location. Package runs fine locally.
I try running on our utility server but am getting a "The file name [SHAREPOINT UNC PATH] specified in the connection was not valid" error. Package is running with a proxy on the server and the proxy account has the same permissions to the sharepoint site (so far as I can tell) as me.
I am trying to create and later read a data file from a package deployed in SSISDB, but it is not reading it while it is successfully creating the file. The same package when run from the file system package, runs successfully. Generating ispac and deploying in SSISDB is running for infinite time. Is it a permission issue?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI need to build an asp.net/C# application to read values from an Excel spreadsheet. Once the values are read from the spreadsheet, the C# code will do some elementary statistics on the values read. Then the values read and their computations will be written to a sql server database.
My manager suggested that SSIS might be a good candidate technology for doing this type of work. Does that sound correct? My only hesitation with using SSIS is that I want to keep the application as simple as possible, so that the code can be more portable. Maybe might argument is not a good one, but maybe someone can help me out here.

Dear Friends,
I store several configurations in the main database of my SSIS packages. I need to get the servername from a xml or txt file in order to get those configurations stored in my database.
How you think is the better way to do that?
Using a FlatFileSource to read the file and a script to save the value into a SSIS variable?
Using the package configuration I cant do that... maybe I dont know, but I can save the SSIS variale in the configuration file, but what I need is to do the inverse, read the configuration file and save the value in the SSIS variable.
How the best way you suggest?!
Regards!!
Thanks.
Hi,
I am pulling text files in gzip format from UNIX system. I want to unzip these files and then import data from these files into database using SSIS.
I am trying to create an ssis package with dynamic csv file as output. and out format contains query output.
sample file name:
Unique identifier + query output + systemdate();
The expression is looking like this.
@[User::FilePath] + @[User::FileName] + ".CSV"
-- user filepath is a variable from ssis package. File name is the output from SQL query. using script task i have assigned the values to @[User::FileName] .
When I debugged the script task the value getting properly but same variable am using for Flafile destination. but its not working.
I've begun to get the above error from my package. The error message refers to two output columns.
Anyone know how this could happen from within the Visual Studio 2005 UI? I've seen the other posts on this subject, and they all seemed to be creating the packages in code.
Is there any way to see all of the columns in the data flow? Or is there any other way to find out which columns it's referring to?
Thanks!

Hello,
Can we keep a database connection information in .ds (datasource) files. Is it possible to use these instead of the standard approach of putting the connection string in the configuration file.
Furthermore, when they run the SSIS package from the command line (using DTEXEC), is it possible to pass the .ds file as a parameter?
