I have a SSIS package which pumps data from one server to other without any additional steps. There are 11 tables for which data is transferred. And this packages runs fine on two different environments but fails in one environment i.e. on SIT.
It doesn't throw any error and every time stops at the below step
[DTS.Pipeline] Information: Pre-Execute phase is beginning.
I am trying to write a query that seaches for all DEFAULT constraints in a database and prints the column with the default value, the value of the default, and the name of the default constraint.
So far I have the two queries that let me get all the information I need.
SELECT Name FROM sysobjects WHERE xtype = 'D'
SELECT column_default, column_name FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE column_default IS NOT Null
I am unable to merge them into one query. I cannot seem to find a commun field to both of them.
The scenario is as follows: I have a source with many rows. Each row has a column called max_qty_value. I need to perform a calculation using another column called qty. This calculation is something similar to dividing qty/(ceiling) max_qty_value. Once I have that number I need to write an additional duplicate row for each value from the prior calculation performed. For example, 15/4 = 4. I need to write 4 rows to the same target table as in line information for a purchase order.
The multicast transform appears to only support fixed and/or predetermined outputs. How do I design this logic in SSIS to write out dynamic number of rows to a target table.
Everything I've read says that custom data flow components are built by inheriting from the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.PipelineComponent class.
But the stock components such as the Derived Column data flow transformation must each be implemented by their own class. So how do I base my custom components on those classes? The documentation for the PipelineComponent class doesn't list any such subclasses.
In another thread Jamie Thomson very informatively said "The components in SSIS are deliberately atomic (i.e. they do something very specific) so that its easy to put them together to build something greater than the sum of the parts". Which does make a lot of sense. However, I've been finding that I end up having to create exactly the same "pattern" of combined transform components again and again in order to solve the same problem but in different dataflows (or even within the same dataflow). Cut-and-paste-tastic! In order to obtain real re-use, it seems to me like SSIS is crying out for an easy way to create new components by using composition - i.e. the ability to take commonly-used combinations of existing components and create new "super" components (without having to write Custom Transform Components in C#/VB.Net and handle everything in code).
Does anyone know if this sort of functionality is likely to make it into SSIS in the forseeable future?
I want to incorporate this code but I dont know how to import Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline in an Integration Services Project template. I was thinking of putting this code in the script task but still, I cant import Pipeline. Add reference list does not have it as well. Please let me know how to incorporate this code. Thanks!
Code: if (ComponentMetaData.RuntimeConnectionCollection["SourceFileConnection"].ConnectionManager != null) { cm = DtsConvert.ToConnectionManager(ComponentMetaData.RuntimeConnectionCollection["SourceFileConnection"].ConnectionManager);
This is probably obvious, but how do I split a pipeline. I.e. I've got a data source with 200 columns - I need to split this into 20 pipelines each containing 10 of the original columns.
We have deployed an SSIS package successfully to production. We needed to apply SP1 to fix a different issue and now have encountered a new problem. We have numerous Data Reader Sources in different Data Flow Tasks that connect to a IBM iSeries (DB2) source. Pretty simple extracts that have worked fine in the past. They pump the data into staging tables on the SQL2K5 instance running the package (64-bit).
After we applied SP1 however, all of the Data Reader tasks fail AFTER they successfully copy the records with the following error.
[iSeries Invoice Details [1]] Error: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.DataReaderSourceAdapter.PrimeOutput(Int32 outputs, Int32[] outputIDs, PipelineBuffer[] buffers) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ManagedComponentHost.HostPrimeOutput(IDTSManagedComponentWrapper90 wrapper, Int32 outputs, Int32[] outputIDs, IDTSBuffer90[] buffers, IntPtr ppBufferWirePacket)
If I delete the source and destination and recreate identical transforms, they work fine, but I don't feel like rebuilding all of the extracts. Any ideas! The problem occurs in all environments that we've tried.
TIA, Michael Shugarman P.S. I just tried the SP2 CTP, but that doesn't fix the problem.
Hi I have created a simple SSIS project on my client that carries out 4 Data Flow tasks, each one copying a few hundred rows from an Oracle 10.0.2 database. This works OK and will also run in debug mode fine.
I have copied the package to the file system on our development server and get the following error when in debug mode:-
[DTS.Pipeline] Information: Validation phase is beginning. Progress: Validating - 0 percent complete [OLE DB Source [1]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "Server.user" failed with error code 0xC0202009. There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the AcquireConnection method call failed. [DTS.Pipeline] Error: component "OLE DB Source" (1) failed validation and returned error code 0xC020801C. Progress: Validating - 50 percent complete [DTS.Pipeline] Error: One or more component failed validation. Error: There were errors during task validation.

If you go to the source of each flow task and select preview you can retreive the data.
I have a situation where we get XML files sent daily that need uploading into SQL Server tables, but the source system producing these files sometimes generates duplicate records in the file. The tricky part is, that the record isn't entirely duplicated. What I mean, is that if I look for duplicates by grouping the key columns, having count(*) > 1, I find which ones are duplicates, but when I inspect the data on these duplicates, the other details in the remaining columns may differ. So our rule is: pick the first record, toss the rest of the duplicates.
Because we don't sort on any columns during the import, the first record kept of the duplicates is arbitrary. Again, we can't tell at this point which of the duplicated records is more correct. Someday down the road, we will do this research.
Now, I need to know the most efficient way to accomplish this in SSIS. If it makes it easier, I could just discard all the duplicates, since the number of them is so small.
If the source were a relational table, I could use a SQL statement to filter the records to remove the duplicates, but since the source is an XML file, I don't know how to filter these out in the pipeline, since the file has to be aggregated to search for dups.
I have an existing application that programmatically builds SSIS 2005 packages.
I'm trying to get to working with the February CTP of SQL Server 2008. Having changed all the 2005 references to 2008 references and things like IDTSComponentMetaData90 to IDTSComponentMetaData100, my application compiles okay now, but hits a problem when it tries to create a Data Flow task.
The code which worked fine before (and seems to still be the recommended way in Books Online is):
Alot of people complain, legitamately, that they wish to remove columns from the SSIS pipeline that they know are not going to be used again. This would help to avoid the "clutter" that can exist when there are alot of columns in the pipeline.
If you are one of those people then click-through below, vote and (most importantly) add a comment. The more people that do that - the more likely we are to get this functionality in a future version.

Hi, My package hangs and the log says DTS.Pipeline: Validation phase is beginning. Any ideas why this is happennig? This same package runs fine when I run it without turning on the transaction.
I have several stage to star (i.e. moving data from a staging table through the key lookups into a fact table) ETL transformations in a single SSIS package. Each fact table has a different set of measures but the identical foreign key set, e.g. ConsultantKey, SubsidiaryKey, ContestKey, ContestParamKey and MonthKey.
Currently I have to replicate the key lookup (Surrogate Key Pipeline, or SKP) for each data flow. If I could cache each dimension one time in the package and reuse it for each stage to fact it would be much more efficient.
Is there a way for me to reuse a common data flow?

I cannot get a simple package to execute a data pump to an access database from SQL2005. I have tried it in both SSIS and by running the Export data function. I have been able to write to this database in the past using dtp in SQL2000 but I am not able to write to it using SQL2005. What is the deal with the new SSIS? Does anybody have any ideas I can try to get my export to work. I have many more to do and I have to migrate over all of my SQL 2000 DTS packages to SQL2005 and some export to MSAccess.
This is the only error message I can find: [DTS.Pipeline] Information: "component "OLE DB Destination 1" (2196)" wrote 0 rows.
Edit: I found more errors in the debug section and a post here that discussed the problem as they had run into it. I was able to use part of that and some more research in order to tackle my problem.
I would still be interested in finding out why I suddenly had this problem arise after I upgraded to SQL2005. This is going to be a real pain as apparently SQL2005 treats NULL as Zero Length and now all of my databsaes that had that set in access will have to be modified to deal with this in the export.
I have a SSIS project that has one parent package and three child packages. When I run the project on my development machine in debug mode it works fine. Also if i run the packages using dtexec on my development machine it still works fine. However the problem comes in when I try and run the project using dtexec on the staging server i get the following error:
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.DoesNotFitBufferException: The value is too large to fit in the column data area of the buffer.
I have been working with DTS and ETL in data warehousing projects for several years and my question is this. You can only update a dimension column with SSIS by using TSQL-update statements.
There is no way to do this except issuing TSQL from the control flow or the data flow?
This subject is not mentioned in Wrox SSIS book nore in Kirk Haseldens book.
When you run the SCD task in the data flow you will get an OLEDB command that actually do this, issue a TSQL-statement.
I have been trying to follow/implement the examples in the following help topics (thanks to Jamie for these links).

The problem I am having is that MainPipe is not recognized as a valid type in my Script task, even though I have the imports statements that are listed in the example. I get the message "Error 30002: Type 'MainPipe' is not defined". The other and related problem is that when I type "imports microsoft.sqlserver.dts", the intellisense offers only two choices: {}Runtime and {}Tasks. I don't see any choice for Pipeline. Can anyone tell what I am missing? It seems to be some kind of configuration/installation issue, but I have no idea how to resolve it. I have tried this on 3 different machines, with both the RTM SQL 2005 standard edition, and with SP2 installed, all with the same result. Any help is appreciated

Hi, I have some data coming through pipeline and I wanna add some component at some point to pass on only selected rows based on conditions to the objects onwards. My opinion is I should use conditional split object, but Please suggest me something if you know better.
I'm building a custom transform component. I want to mark some input columns as keys for deduplicating. In a similar way to the provided Sort component, I want to check those columns and allow pass-throughs (or not) for the others - so next to each input column name I need two checkboxes (1:use for dedupe; 2:include in output if 1 not checked). If a column is checked for use in the dedupe, I want some other attributes to be shown indicating how it will be used. How do I display the checkboxes to let users select which columns to include for deduplication, and then how do I add further attributes underneath (copying the Sort component's look) for selection?
Thanks in advance for guidance and pointers on this.
I need to access columns from a data flow by ordinal position in a script transformation (I'm parsing an excel file which has several rowsets across the page). The first problem I encountered is the generated BufferWrapper does not expose the columns collection (i.e. Input0Buffer(0) does not work) but I got around that by implementing my own ProcessInputs(InputId, Buffer) method instead of using the wrapper.
My problem now is that the column ordinals are in some random order (i.e. Column "F1" is ordinal 1 but Column "F2" is 243). Where in the object model can I map between the name and the ordinal - it's not jumping out at me?

I have some troubles with IBM WebSphere Application Server using MS SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver.

I found this Feedback but it seems to be closed.
A temporary solution for me was to delete the meta-inf directory of the JAR-File, but that can't be the solution.
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: "component "Excel Source" (1)" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_NEEDSNEWMETADATA".
and also this:
[Excel Source [1]] Warning: The external metadata column collection is out of synchronization with the data source columns. The column "Fiscal Week" needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection. The column "Fiscal Year" needs to be updated in the external metadata column collection. The column "1st level" needs to be added to the external metadata column collection. The column "2nd level" needs to be added to the external metadata column collection. The column "3rd level" needs to be added to the external metadata column collection. The "external metadata column "1st Level" (16745)" needs to be removed from the external metadata column collection. The "external metadata column "3rd Level" (16609)" needs to be removed from the external metadata column collection. The "external metadata column "2nd Level" (16272)" needs to be removed from the external metadata column collection.
I tried going data flow->excel connection->advanced editor for excel source-> input and output properties and tried to refresh the columns affected. It seems that somehow the 3 columns are not read in from the source file? ans alslo fiscal year, fiscal week is not set up up properly in my data destination? anyone faced such errors before?
I am trying to create a simple BI Application for SSIS. In Visual Studio 2005 I just get a Data Flow Task from the toolbar and add it to the project. When I double click it I get the following error:
The task with the name "Data Flow Task" and the creation name "DTS.Pipeline.1" is not registered for use on this computer.
Then when I try to delete it it gives this other error:
Cannot remove the specified item because it was not found in the specified Collection.
I am creating this application in an administrator account in this computer, so I doubt the problem is related to permissions. I am running SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 in WinXP Tablet PC Edition.
Any suggestions why this is happening and how to fix it?
I can't find 'SQL Server: SSIS Pipeline' performance object in performance monitor on a 64-bit SQL Server. I see it on a 32-bit. Does anybody know why?
I have a job that contains a step to run a DTS task (DTSRUN /S.....etc.) via a batch file.
I can run either the DTSRUN command line, or the batch file that contains it just fine, but when I try to run the job, it reports success but does not actually do the work.
I dont get an error message. I am using the sa account to run the DTS task from the command line.
I know this must be a permissions issue. As I am working at a Defense contractor, I cannot get a domain admin account to run SQL Agent.
