Configure A Child Package To Use The Configuration File Of A Parent Package?
Hi guys,
Here's the deal. I have a child package, (say, pack01.dtsx), which uses a dtsconfig file for its connection string, which can be called from other packages, but which also can be called by itself.
However I also have another package (say, pack02.dtsx) which uses the same dtsconfig file for its connection string. It calls on pack01.dtsx.
When I use DTEXECUI and run pack01.dtsx, specifying the proper .dtsconfig file, it goes well. But when I try and run pack02.dtsx, an error occurs saying pack01.dtsx connection cannot be established.
How do I pass the connectionstring being used by pack02 to pack01, without having to remove the configuration file setting of pack01? Can a Parent Package configuration and a configuration file try and map to the same property?
Hope someone could help. Thanks.

Package Configuration, Parent-child Packages And Job Scheduling
Hi, I've found this problem that when I change settings in my configuration file it does not automatically apply to all child packages which uses the same configuration file if run from a job in SQL Server Agent. I need to open the package and save it again from BIDS. I use one "load group" package to execute all other packages. Is there a way from the job configuration to set a setting so the package allways will have the newest configuration? Regards Simon

Hi, I created a package which passes some infornmations( through parameters) to its child package.

Parent Package Variable Assignment Issue In Child Package.
We have one main package from which 7 other child packages are called. We are using ParentPackage variables to assign values for variables and database connections. While the values from ParentPackage variable get assigned to some of the packages properly, to others it doesn€™t assign the value. For example: Except for one of the packages the database connection string gets assigned properly to all other packages. Similarly, in another package one of the variables doesn€™t get assigned. In other packages it is assigned properly. We have checked all the other property values and they are exactly the same. We cannot make any head or tail of this erratic behavior. Please Help.

Resume Parent Package After Child Package Failure...
Hello All, I have a SSIS Package with a "Execute Package Task" to call a child package. I am trying to have the master/parent package complete its execution regardless the outcome (failure or success) of the child package. The overall structure of the master package is: 1. Perform Pre-load tasks (stored procedure). 2. Execute Package Task (call child package) 3. Perform Post-load Tasks (stored procedure) I have try everything and cannot get the results that I want... I have tried the combination of "failparentonfailure", "forceexecutionvalue", etc. The master package stops at childs failure. I would like to resume to completion Any ideas out there? Rohan

SSIS Parent Package Can Not Find The Child Package
I have two SSIS packages in a project, one calling the other. The parent package works fine in my local mechine.

The child package works fine if I run it alone, but the parent package could not find its child package if I run the parent package . As I checked, all xml config files and the connection string pointing to the child package were set correctly. It seems the parent package did not use the xml config file. Can someone help me?

Parent Package Call To Child Package
I run into some issues and really need some expert help here. Here is the problem. I have two packages (parent.dtsx and child.dtsx). Both package have its own configuration file (parent.dtsConfig and child.dtsConfig). The file Child.dtsConfig contains a variable (i.e. "X") that is to be used by Child.dtsx. Inside parent.dtsx. there is a package-task that calls into Child.dtsx. It worked perfectly well if I run parent.dtsx using Dtexec or from inside SSIS's IDE. Now I want to programmably call "parent.dtsx" from my C# code. I loaded package using "app.LoadPackage"... Inside C# code, I want to reconfigure Child-package's variable ("X"). I then loaded in "Child.dtsx". However when I run "parent.dtsx" and child.dtsx still loads the original value for "X". The reconfigured value for "X" is not updated. Please help on how to get around this issue. Thanks.

Parent Package Is Losing A Child Package
I have a parent package which calls a number of child packages. Occasionally, I have one child package which starts up and appears to finish but the parent package never gets notification that the child has finished. If I view this in Management Studio's in Integration Services, I can view the packages that are running and only the parent package is running. Because it never gets control back, the next child package will never get started and the parent package will continue to run and never finish. Any idea what could be happening??

Parent Child Integration Using Configuration File
Hi All, I though i'd been going about setting up my SSIS package to run via a SQL job in the correct way. It would appear however that is not the case. I have 4 SSIS packages, one of which is the parent package which calls the other three in sequence. I want to run this from a SQL job so that it calls the parent package and it deals with the others. There are connection managers in the package which use a SQL account to access the relevant databases. In addition i have encrypted the package. I have set up a configuration file which holds the password package and the BillingSystem connection manager password. This file is re used by each package. After deployment i have set up the SQL agent job to run the parent package. The job returns an error. Looking at the SSIS logging it appears that it completes the SQL task in the parent package and then fails when trying to launch each of the sub packages with an error stating that the SQL account used in the connection manager login failed. It looks as though the sub packages are not getting the password value from the configuration file and this is causing the failure. I though that each package would automatically pick up the config file as it has been setup to do. I have specified the configuration file in the SQL job but this appears to make no difference. Running the integrations seperately i have to add the configuration file in manually to the Run Package dialog box before they will work. This is not saved for the next run. Can anyone help me get around this problem as i think i have the wrong idea as to how it is supposed to work. Cheers, Grant

Parent Child Package With Expressions
Hi there, sorry if the message seems a bit garbled i cannot see the textbox properly with ie7/ff anyways. the situation. childpackage contains a loop-container. in there i use an ole-db-source with a variable based on an expression. ie. "select * from foo where bar=" + len(@[bar]) == 0 ? "initial" : @[bar] + " and etc=1" where bar is the variable that is set by the loop. this works great. however i need to call this package several times, only the expression is a tad different. so i need a scripttask that sets the expression correctly, then i call the childpackage and map the current-expression to the expression in childpackage. how do i do that? or am i doing it wrong? my script-task looks something like: dts.Variable("theVar").Expression = " ""select * from foo where bar="" + len(@[bar]) == 0 ? ""initial"" : @[bar] + "" and etc=1"" " in the childpackage i have a package-conf that maps thevar to thequery with target-object expression.

Parent-&&>Child Package Editing Bug?
Before I submit this to connect, I'd like to see if someone can verify: Create a package that executes another package. When you start debuging (build) the parent package it opens up the child package and executes. Once you're done and stop debugging, the child package remains open. When you make edits to the child package and save and close, none of the edits are saved. You must close the package and re-open it before you make your edits...

Problem Of Parent-Child Package With ASP.Net
I have an ASP.NET application that calls a SSIS package. The SSIS package internally calls some other child packages. I observed that sometimes some child pacakges are not even called by the parent. and the behaviour is very indeterminate. sometimes they work fine. sometimes they don't. There is no clue available for this behaviour when the pacakges are not executed. (One general observation is that the memory consumption is very high. but that is the case always.) I have enabled logging on all child packages. The log is not updated at all when the child packages failed to execute. i.e. the package execution does not start. Could somebody explain why this is happening? any suggestions/ similar experiences? Regards Saurabh

Parent - Multiple Child Package Execution
I have a parent package "A", I also have 4 child packages "B","B1","B2",B3" In BIDS, I created a file connection in the package "A" to connect to the child packages. So whenever I want to run B1 or B2, I change the path in the file connection to point to B1 or B2 and so on. Since the developement environment is File system this works perfectly fine. But in the Test / Production environment all packages are stored in the Sql server. How can I paramaterize the child package connection so that I can use configuration / variables to select which child package to execute. Thanks

Parent / Child Package - Connections, Variables Etc.,
In respect to Parent / Child packages, can some one correct me if I'm wrong. Even if connection managers are created in Parent package, the same needs to be created in child packages if they need to connect to database. On the other hand I can just create connection strings in variable in parent package(instead of connection managers itself) and use parent package variable configuration to configure the connection string of child package with the variable value. Sorry If I'm confusing The same with variables, the parent variable needs to be mapped to a child variable(using parent package variable config) to be used in child package, it cannot be used as it is.

Passing Multiple Values From Parent To Child Package
Starting with "How to: Use Values of Parent Variables in Child Packages" in the SQL Server 2005 Books Online (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345179.aspx), it seems I need to create a separate package configuration in the child package (of type parent package variable) for each variable I want to pass from the parent to the child. Is that really so? The XML configuration file type allows me to specify any number of variables; how do I do that with the parent package variable? For that matther, why doesn't the Execute Package Task simply allow me to specify the values of child variables (or other properties) directly? It seems SSIS has made something as trivial as a series of function calls completely opaque: MyChildPackage(var1=1, var2="foo"); MyChildPackage(var1=2, var2="bar"); MyChildPackage(var1=3, var2="baz");

Parent Package Doesn't Recognize Child Settings
I have two issues: I have a simple parent that uses an Execute Package Task to call a simple child package. The child package has a Data Flow that I disabled. When running the child package by itself, the data flow task is bypassed. When running the package via the parent the data flow task executes. Second issue is when you disable the package configurations in the child, the parent doesn't recognize that it's diables and tries to load the configurations. It's almost like there are some settings in a child that get ignored by the parent?? Anyone else experience this? thx

SSIS Parent/Child Package Variable Passing
Hi I have having trouble getting my hands around how to retrieve variables from a parent package. I read about the Environment variables and Configuration File at the parent package level and the Parent Package variable at the child level. Here are my questions: 1. Can you only store/retrieve 1 variable in a config file at a time? 2. Does the child package have to define the variables and if so, do they have to be the same names as the parent package? This seems so more more complex then the DTS2000 way of passing variables to and from packages. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Gordon Radley

Checking For Existence Of Parent Variable In Child Package
I have a parent package that calls a child package, when I run the parent package the child package picks up a variable value from the parent in a script task and runs fine, the problem I'm facing is when I run just the child package, the script task fails because it doesn't know about the parent variable. The dilemma I'm facing is in my child script task, if I add the parent variable to the ReadOnlyVariables list then the task fails because the parent variable doesn't exist when I just run the child. If I don't add the parent variable to the ReadOnlyVariabls list then if I try to use it then the task fails saying that the variable doesn't exist in the variables collection. Is there a way to check for the existence of the parent variable, so when I just run the child package I don't get an error and I don't have to change my task every time I choose to run the child package only vs running the parent/child? Thanks.

Passing A Variable Between A Parent And Child Package Doesn't Work
Has someone managed to pass successfully a variable from a parent package to a child package? I€™ve tried a zillion permutations and I can€™t get it to work. The strange thing was that I was able to successfully do this with pre-RTM builds. Basically, what I am trying to do is: The parent package has a variable, e.g. ExecutionID which I set using a script to System::ExecutionInstanceGUID. I verified that the variable is set correctly by dumping it to a SQL Server table. I created a child package variable with the same name. In the child package, I€™ve created a parent package configuration that points to the ExecutionID variable. I am trying to read the variable in a Derived Column Task in which I have a column linked to @ExecutionID. This doesn€™t work. Step-by-step instructions from someone who managed to concur this will be greatly appreciated. Oh, I didn€™t have any luck hitting a breakpoint in a script task inside a child package with both in and out of process execution also.

Passing The Xml Configuration File To The Package As An Input Parameter While Executing The Package
Hi, I am planning to develop a single package that will download files from ftp server, move the files to internal file server and upload it in the database. But I want to run this package for multiple ftp file providers. For each provider the ftp server might be different and the transformation to upload the files into a database table might be different. So can I create a single package and then multiple configuration files (xml), which will contain the details fo the ftp file providers and then pass the xml file as a parameter while executing the package. The reason being that the timings of fetching the files is different for each ftp file provider and hence cannot be combined into one. Is this possible? Thanks for your help. $wapnil

Parent/Child Packages And Configuration Files
I have 3 packages (pack1.dtsx, pack2.dtsx, pack3.dtsx). Pack1 executes Pack2, and Pack2 executes Pack3. I created parent package configurations in Pack3 to accept variables from Pack2, and I also created XML configuration settings in Pack 2. Pack1 is the master control package. I need to be able to execute the package at Pack1 or Pack2. Any changes made in Pack2's XML configuration file must show up in Pack3 correctly regardless if execution takes place in Pack1 or Pack2. Here's the challenge: When I changed the XML configuration value (which is also the package variable that is passed from Pack2 to Pack3), the value shows up in Pack3 correctly regardless if I executed from Pack1 or Pack2 within the development studio debug mode. However, the value in the XML configuration file from Pack2 only shows up correctly in Pack3 if I executed from Pack2 using dtsexec util. When Pack1 is executed using dtsexec util, the value that was stored in Pack3 during development is consistently returned. The value changed in the Pack2's XML configuration value is never returned. Any idea? Thanks in advance.

Variable In A Foreach Loop Becomes NULL When Package Executed As Child Package
I have created a SSIS package with a Foreach Loop including a Data Flow Task, which in turn include a Row Count component which pass the row count value to variable with package scope. The variable is used in an Execute SQL Task following the Data Flow Task. The package executes successfully when executed on its own, but when executed as a child from a parent package (which only include an Execute Package Task) the variable from the Foreach Loop becomes NULL. There are a lot of other variables in the package receiving values dynamically without any problem, the row count variable however is the only variable in the package that receives a value as part of a Data Flow (and used in following tasks within the Foreach Loop). Why does the variable become Null? For your information, I am using a variable with package scope and no variables from the parent package are used or passed from the child package to the parent package. (For your information, we are running the 64 bit version)

Problem When Running A SSIS Master-package-child Package On Non Default Sql-server Instance
Hi there We have a SSIS run which runs as follows The master package has a configuration file, specifying the connect strings The master package passes these connect-strings to the child packages in a variable Both master package and child packages have connection managers, setup to use localhost. This is done deliberately to be able to test the packages on individual development pc€™s. We do not want to change anything inside the packages when deploying to test, and from test to production. All differences will be in the config files (which are pretty fixed, they very seldom change). That way we can be sure that we can deploy to production without any changes at all. The package is run from the file system, through a job-schedule. We experience the following when running on a not default sql-server instance (called dkms5253uedw) Case 1: The master package starts by executing three sql-scripts (drop foreign key€™s, truncate tables, create foreign key€™s). This works fine. The master package then executes the first child package. We then in the sysdtslog get: Error - €œcannot connect to database xxx€? Info - €œpackage is preparing to get connection string from parent €¦€? The child package then executes OK, does all it€™s work, and finish. Because there has been an error, the master package then stops with an error. Case 2: When we run exactly the same, but with the connection strings in the config file pointing to the default instance (dkms5253), the everything works fine. Case 3: When we run exactly the same, again against the dkms5253uedw instance, but now with the exact same databases defined in the default instance, it also works perfect. Case 4: When we then stop the sql-server on the default instance, the package faults again, this time with Error - €œtimeout when connect to database xxx€? Info - €œpackage is preparing to get connection string from parent €¦€? And the continues as in the first case From all this we conclude, that the child package tries to connect to the database before it knows the connection string it gets passed in the variable from the master package. It therefore tries to connect to the default instance, and this only works if the default instance is running and has the same databases defined. As far as we can see, the child package does no work against the default instance (no logging etc.). We have tried delayed validation in the packages and in the connection managers, but with the same results (error). So we are desperately hoping that someone can help us solve this problem. Thanx, /Nils M - Copenhagen

Parent Package Variables And SQL Package Store
Hello All, I have a Master Package which calls a group of other packages out on the SSIS Package Store using parent / child and a number of variables. These seem to work when passing various audit information (audit key, record counts, etc) but when I try to pass a variable for the connection string and assign it via an expression to the connection manager, I get the Master Package writing to the correct database and the children package writing to their "default" database which is supplied as the default value in the variables which should be populated by the parent task. i.e., I end up with my master package audit information in database a and child package audit and transactions in database b, even though the packages associated with these transactions are supposed to be reading the connection string from a parent variable. Any clues or suggestions? Edit: It is still passing along the correct parent audit information and record counts, it's just not connecting to the correct database by the variables holding the connect string Thanks for your time.

Failure To Pass Connection String To Child Package In A Batch File
I apologize in advance for posting yet another connection failure issue. I went through quite a few posts and could not find the actual answer so here is the issue. I have a main SSIS package to call five other packages. This seems to work fine in my BIDS workstation; however, when I copied it, including the bat file that was created by dtexecui utility, to the production environment (which runs on 64 bit - probably has nothing to do with the 64 bit platform), the main package executes fine but the child packages failed with this error: Description: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Login timeout expired". An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote conne ctions.". It seems that the child packages are still using the old connection strings from my workstation. My question is how can I pass the connection string from the batch file to all the child packages that the parent (main) package is using. Thanks, Andrew

Any ideas anyone? I would be most gratefull. Kind regards, Paul Baudouin

Package Not Finding Xml Configuration File
Hi, I'm having difficulty configuring a package to look for an xml configuration file that contains values for source/destination connection strings. The goal is to be able to have a package and its configuration file on one file system and to be able to copy/move the file dtsx and dtsx.config between build/staging/production servers while only having to set the xml value for the source/destination configurations. In the package, I've created an xml configuration file called zzz.config. I took the absolute path out of the location of the xml file so that I have xml location = zzz.config instead of xml location = e:ssiszzz.config I'm assuming that when it gets to the point of validating the location of that file, it starts by looking in the current directory where the package is found. All is well as long as I execute the package through the execute package utility by double clicking on the package file. The problem lies when configuring a job in the sql server agent, it doesn't seem to pick up the xml configuration values because its pointing to the old server and not the current server stored in the xml file. I'm assuming its because the current directory is not the package directory at this point. How can I get around this? Do I have to move the xml config file (zzz.config) to another directory where the agent will look for? I know I could configure this as an environment variable but this contradicts the point of having movable packages without any extra tweaks. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Robin

Passwords In XML Package Configuration File
I created a xml config file to manage servername, database name, user name and password. My password is visible to users, which I do not want. Is there a way to hide or handle password in a different way?. Please let me know. Thanks,.

My Package Does Not Take The Values Configured In The Configuration File.
Hi all, I created a simple file system task to copy a file from one location to another on my local system. I used variables to specify the source and destination paths and now in my configuration file if I configure the values to something else also the package is taking the initial default values and not the values specified in the configuration file. Can anyone throw some light on this. Thanks in advance.

Question Regarding SSIS Package Configuration Using XML File
As I am converting my DTSs to SSIS I am replacing current *.ini file with Package configuration xml file. I already converted few DTSs and am using only one *.dtsconfig file for all of my SSIS packages. Each ssis package points to a different flat file, so my *.dtsconfig file contains all of the string connections. Something like this.... <DTSConfiguration> <DTSConfigurationHeading> <DTSConfigurationFileInfo GeneratedBy="ASAPpikul" GeneratedFromPackageName="NewTmpBackOrder" GeneratedFromPackageID="{000FA6E1-C7B7-4105-AC72-303352F27659}" GeneratedDate="9/21/2006 4:05:53 PM"/> </DTSConfigurationHeading> <Configuration ConfiguredType="Property" Path="Package.Connections[backorderdetail].Properties[ConnectionString]" ValueType="String"> <ConfiguredValue>C:Inetpubftprootackordersdetail.csv</ConfiguredValue> </Configuration> <Configuration ConfiguredType="Property" Path="Package.Connections[BackOrderCIO].Properties[ConnectionString]" ValueType="String"> <ConfiguredValue>C:Inetpubftprootackordercio.csv</ConfiguredValue> </Configuration></DTSConfiguration> And that all works fine. But when I come later and try to open any of my ssis it gives me an error and warning message that i don't have proper connection set up. When I run my SSIS regardless of the errors it seems to wok just fine. What it seems to be happening is that when I have many string connetions in one xml file (dtsconfig file) it doesn't seem to recognize it at the design time but it is able to recognize it at a run time.... Is this a known issue or is it something that I am doing wrong?? Thank you, Maria

XML Package Configuration File Not Added Into Sourcesafe
Hi, I've added an XML package configuration file to my SSIS package and it appears to be working fine. The XML file is located in the same folder as the solution file. I've recently added the entire solution to Visual Sourcesafe 2005, and I achieved this by doing the following: 1. Right-clicked on the Project name in the solution explorer and selected "Add to source Control". 2. When prompted, provided my Sourcesafe login credentials and clicked "OK" 3. Accepted the default VSS project name and clicked "OK" 4. Clicked "Yes" to allow VSS to create a new project Problem: The XML configuration file hasn't be added to sourcesafe along with rest of the solution. I'm able to add the file manually myself, but this doesn't seem right to me. Am I missing something? Should the config file show as part of the Solution in Visual Studio 2005? Any answers/help would be appreciated greatly. Thanks Jon Derbyshire
