Edit Connection Manager Connection String At Runtime With C#
This is the first time I have used SSIS, so please bear with the ignorance.
I have a super simple package that inserts x000's of rows into a temporary table. The data source is a file that the user will upload. I need to be able to tell the package what file to upload. I'm thinking the simplest thing would be to edit the connectionString property of the SourceConnectionFlatFile at runtime. Is this possible? What form should the file path be in (UNC, other)? And, are there any other considerations I should be aware of?
Thanks!

How To Add A Connection Manager At Runtime Within A Script Component?
Hi all. Sorry about bothering you again but I have no choice, I'm afraid. This time I have to add a connection manager at runtime. I have a script that examines rows in a huuuuuuuuuuuuge file and it turns out that I will have to redirect different rows into 95 different text files. I would like to avoid the pain of creating the files and connection managers manually. I have a source script component that runs asynchronously (the only way basically it can run as a source) and I wonder whether this time, when I change the connction string on the manager at runtime inside the script, it would run properly. Can anybode tell me, please? Darek

Change Filename For Flat File Connection Manager At Runtime
I need to add the current date to the end of the filename of a flat file at runtime. This was previously done with ActiveX script in SQL Server 2000. oConn = DTSGlobalVariables.Parent.Connections("FlatFileConnectionManagerName") oConn.DataSource = sNewFileName oConn = Nothing I would really appreciate if someone could give me some information on how to achieve this in SQL Server 2005.

Flat File Connection Manager HeaderRowsToSkip Not Modifiable At Runtime?
I have been working with flat file connection managers for a while now, and I have found it very useful to set properties on all types of SSIS objects using expressions that are set to SSIS package variables. We have recently moved towards using a centralized application configuration infrastructure, so we are now loading up all application configuration information from our own system -- it's actually based off of the 2.0 ConfigurationManager. I have developed a custom control flow task that will retrieve all of the SSIS variable information from our own application configuration system and set all of the SSIS variables as the first step in a package. When I have been using this to set the SSIS Variables which are used in expressions for the HeaderRowsToSkip and DataRowsToSkip (there may be others, but I have not tested them yet) properties of flat file connection managers, these values are not being used -- instead it is using the values for the variables that are defined in the package itself (i.e. the default values that I set up in BIDS when developing the package). The ConnectionString property on the flat file connection manager does not exhibit this behavior. Can anyone provide any insight on this? Is this a bug in SSIS, or is there something that I am missing here? Thanks in advance.

HTTP Connection Manager Connectionstring, Web Tasks, And Runtime Configuration
At one point in my package I call a simple web service that kicks off a process on a remote server using a Web Service Task . I need to be able to point the task at a test instance while I'm testing and a different one when it goes to production. The simple answer (you'd hope anyway) is to just store the ConnectionString for the HTTP Connection Manger in Package Configurations for TEST and PROD. I did this and when the package runs, the connection manager's connectionstring does get changed, but the web service task doesn't use this value. It uses the value defined in the WSDL file which in my case contains the URL for the TEST instance. Am I missing something obvious? Do I really have to get the WSDLs from PROD and TEST and deploy both of them to the appropriate environment? What does the ConnectionString in the HTTP Connection Manager actually do then? Thanks for any insight you might have. Kevin S

Cannot Set Connection Property Of Backup Database Task If Connection String Is Customized In Connection Object
I added a connection (ADO.NET) object by name testCon in the connection manager - I wanted to programmatically supply the connection string. So I used the "Expressions" property of the connection object and set the connectionstring to one DTS variable. The idea is to supply the connection string value to the variable - so that the connection object uses my connection string. Then I added a "Backup Database Task" to my package with the name BkpTask. Now whenever I try to set the connection property of BkpTask to the testCon connection object, by typing testCon, it automatically gets cleared. I am not able to set the connection value. Then after spending several hours I found that this is because I have customized the connection string in testCon. If I don't customize the connection string, I am able to enter the "testCon" value in the connection property of the BkpTask. Is this an intrinsic issue?

Failed OLEDB Connection: Cannot Aquire Connection From Connection Manager

Flat File Connection Manager And String Delimitation
Guys Another question regarding the frustrating SSIS stuff. Basically when I used to use a DTS task to import a flat file (comma delimited) into the database it worked fine no problems, however, for some reason the same approach in SSIS means that any string values in the file are automatically delimited with double quotes, even though I am specifying <none> as the delimitation. I have also changed the fields so that the the TextQualified is set to false. This causes a problem because all of the information stored in the database (done by a stored procedure) contains these stupid quotes. Is there something I am missing or haven't done correctly to get rid of the quotes Thanks D

The Connection Type &&"OLEDB&&" Specified For Connection Manager Is Not Recognized As A Valid Connection Manager Type - Why?
Greetings, I have an SSIS package that I need to modify. It was developed in Visual Studio 2005 and runs faithfully in production on SQL Server 2005. Suddenly, I can't open the package on my own workstation. I see a big red "X" image and a message stating "Microsoft Visual Studio is unable to load this document." The real reason the document can't be loaded appears to be: Error loading DataWarehouseLoader.dtsx: The connection type "OLEDB" specified for connection manager "Warehouse Logging OLE DB" 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. Does anyone know what causes this and what I can do? The package has been in production for 9 months and I've never seen this problem before. Thanks, BCB

Unable To Edit Pre-defined Flat File Connection Manager Properties In The Flat File Destination Editor
Hi, I am testing SSIS and have created a Flat File Destination. I defined the Flat File Connection as New for the first time and it worked fine. Now, I would like to go back and modify the Flat File Connection in the Flat File Destination Editor, but it allows only to create a New connection rather allowing me to edit the existing one. For testing, I can go back and create a new connection, but if my connection had 50-100 columns then it would be an issue to re-create it from scratch. Did someone else faced this issue? Thanks, AQ

How To Re-use Connection Manager ADO.NET Connection In A Script Task?
I'm currently using: Dts.Connections.Item("myADO.NET connection").AcquireConnection(Nothing)Dim conn As New SqlClient.SqlConnection(Dts.Connections.Item("myADO.NET connection").ConnectionString) conn.Open() This seems silly, in that I'm not really using the same connection, but using the connection string of a connection that already exists. And, for my purposes, it's not working currently, because I've switched from Windows Authentication to SQL Auth... and the password isn't coming over in the ConnectionString property.How do I re-use the exact same ADO.NET connection I have in my connection manager in a script task? That's the recommended way to go, right?

Can Not Aquire Connection From Connection Manager
Hi Everyone, I am looking for some help, I have created a simple SSIS package that takes the contents of a view on the Server and outputs it to a delimited flat file. This flat file is moved from its location on the server to our file print server. This package uses a config file that contains the necessary passwords. When run in the visual studio it runs without error. However when run in a SQL Server Agent Job it fails on this step - Code: 0xC020801C Source: Data Flow Task GET DATA FROM LIVE [1] Description: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "ServerName.DBName.SQLServerAuth" fail. I have researched the error and I have found that it doenst have the necessary permissions, however I have another package doing the same thing using the same config file that runs with error on a SQL Job. I do not get why it would differ when the jobs are identical? Any help would be appreciated. Paul

Variable Connection String For OLE DB Connection
Good Morning, I hope that I am just missing a step in the process somewhere. I have established a string variable called DatabaseServer and another called DatabaseName. In the OLE DB connectionstring expression I have the following: Code Snippet "Data Source=" + @[User::DatabaseServer] + ";Initial Catalog=" + @[User::DatabaseName] + ";Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;" My understanding is that changing the variable from SERVERA to SERVERB should repoint the connection. (Test to pre-production to production in my current promotion environment.) This should also take effect in any dataflow task using the database connection above right? When I try to repoint the server variable (and only the server variable) I am either a.)throwing errors saying the original connection cannot be found in the data flow task, or b.)the job appears to be processing fine, but the repoint did not take place and data is still flowing to the original server. Can anyone offer suggestions as to what I am missing? The properties values in the DB connection: ConnectionManagerType is OLEDB DataSourceID is blank DelayValidation is False (Setting to true changes nothing in my test) Expression for ConnectionString is (see above) RetainSameConnection is False SupportsDTCTTransactions is True (and appears to be unchangeable.)

Connection Nonexistent At Runtime
The problem: I have a package that does this 1. Deletes a SQL Server database. 2. Recreates it with the tables ready to take data. 3. Executes a Flow Task that puts the data into the tables. So far so good. The problem I have is that everything is loaded correctly as long as the tables are in place before I try to execute the package. When the first step deletes the database I get an error because the connection manager cannot find the tables that are defined in the database that has been removed and the package seems to disregard the fact that before the data gets loaded the whole structure will already be in place. What should I do to convince the package that the connection manager will have the target database set up when the data needs loading? Thanx for any ideas.

I want to change the package before the Data Soruces were created to use them, but when I right click in the Connection Managers pane "New Connection From Data Source.." is not an option. Did I not add it to the Solution properly? How do I get it to show? Did I not refresh something? Please provide the how if you figure it out. Thanks

Setting The OLEDB Connection Properties At Runtime
I used to do this in DTS but wondered how to do it in SSIS. I have a For Each ADO recordset loop that reads these four columns into variables: DataSource Name, Name(for a WHERE clause), user and password. For each "Building" there is a new server to connect to, with identical tables. I have 10 tables in the loop to pump from one database to a SQL 2005 database (i.e. 10 dataflows). I want to set the source connection information with the variables. My questions: 1. How do I set the connection information for the source connections? Do I just set the properties for the connection manager and then it sets for all the sources? What property do I set--do I need a script task? 2. How do I use the values from the "Name" column in a WHERE clause in each data flow? Thanks! Kayda

DSN Connection Not Available In Connection Manager
Hi -- I am having problems connecting to an ODBC data source with SSIS. I am trying to connect to a mysql database. The connection is set up in "Administrative Tools" as a System DSN, and I can sucessfully connect using "Test" from there. But the connection is not shown as available in SSIS. In Connection Manager, I create a new ADO.NET connection, choose New, ODBC data provider, but my system DSN connection is not in the dropdown (no ODBC connections are), and if I try to specify it with a connection string Dsn=ConnectionName; I get: Test connection failed because of an error initalizing provider. Error [IM002] [Microsoft] [ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified. I have tried recreating it, creating a new data source with a new name, but none of the Dsn's come are seen by SSIS. To make it more frustrating, it was working just days ago and I don't know what changed... Any help appreciated, Mike

Edit DstConfig At Runtime
Hi, I have a SSIS package which migrate data from a database to another. In order to insert/update only new and updated records I need to store the package last execution date somewhere so I store it in configuration table in the database (with a few other configuration items). The problem is that this same package needs to access several database and so I had to write the connection strings in a dstconfig file instead of my configuration table because of "password remembering" issues. In order to make the deployment process easier I would like to move the informations from my configuration table to the dtsconfig file. The only problem is that I need to be able to edit the "last execution date" in the dtsconfig programatically and I haven't figured out a way to do it yet. Does someone know a way to do it? Cheers Fabien

Connection Manager
I am using a connection manager defined as a '.Net ProvidersSqlClient Data Provider' I choose the .net form since it has the ability to return multiple result sets. However, when I set the Advanced 'MultipleActiveResultsSets' to True and check OK, it doesn't save the setting. This setting is available under the 'All' window, when you add the Connection Manager. Any clues as to why this feature isn't functional? Or is this a known bug? I am piping this into a DataConversion Task

Connection Manager Questino
I know this is a dumb question, but what exactly does connection manager do in SQL Server 2005? If it works like I think it does, then it sets up BI packages on the servers that it creates a connection to. However, if my computer goes down, are these packages lost to the server? -Thank you in advance.

WMI Connection Manager Question
I am using an expression for the connection string property on a WMI Connection Manager so that I can loop through all my boxes and find all the patches that have been applied and put this data into a central repository. Every time I build the package it gives me a Package Validation Error and complains about putting an expression on the ConnectionString property and that can not be done but the expression was parsed out properly. My question is can you make the connection string for a WMI Connection Manager dynamic? I do this all the time on ODBC and ADO.NET connection managers in order to loop through my boxes. Here is the error: Error at GetPatches: The result of the expression "@[CONNECTIONSTRING::CONSTRING]" on property "ConnectionString" cannot be written to the property. The expression was evaluated, but cannot be set on the property. Thanks,

Programming A Connection Manager
I recently developed a DLL for a new connection manager. In following the example instructions, I added the DLL into the GAC, placed it into the DTS/Connections folder under SQL Server 2005 program files. When I attempt to load my new connection manager I see it in the connection manager listing, but when I double-click to load it, I get the 'Connection Manager could not be created' message. Anyone, have a clue as to what I could be missing for programming new Connection Managers? I'm able to load the example connection managers just fine and run them without incident. I just can't with my own. I ran through the code and everything seems to look fine. I am calling another library so perhaps its where this library is located?

How To Use Same Connection Manager In Different Packages
We want to use a single connection manager in different packages. IS there a way to do it? We tried copying the same connection manager in different package, but it makes a copy of the same in different package, so any change in the connection manager doesnt gets reflected in other package. IS there a way to make all the different packages use the same connection manager?

Connection Manager Validation Within UI
Hi all, I need to validate a custom connection manager within its custom user interface, like the FlatFileConnectionManager does it, by showing errors and warnings at the bottom of the window. How can I do that since SSIS provides only a ConnectionManager object with the IDtsConnectionManagerUI::Initialize method, and this object doesn't contain any Validate method? Note that for a custom data flow component, SSIS provides a ComponentMetaData object which supports a Validate method. Thanks. Pascal
