Move Files From Directory Based On Names On A Static List.
May 2, 2008
I have a scenario where I need to move a series of files from within a directory of many files. The files follow no nameing convention and are more of less random. However the file names never change from week to week. I tried various different options in a 'file system task', no go.
Any ideas on how to move only a list of files?
or
can I load only specific files into a 'Foreach Loop container' from a certain directory. I tried delimiting file names in the file source, that did not work.
Either way can work,
Thanks

I need to move specific files from a server to another server on a monthly basis. There are hundreds of files that are in the source directory and I need to move approximately 40 of those to the destination server. I would like to easily add or delete the file list as needed. I have seen where several variables were created for for each file name (and one for the path) and the ForEach Loop would go through them. With 40 or more I was thinking that I could make a connection to an Excel spreadsheet or text file with a record for each file name and read in and and move to the next record and make that value become the content of a "FileName" variable. Then if I wanted to add another file name I could just add another record to spreadsheet/text file or remove and the package would handle automatically....

Currently looping through the set of flat files like CHK0604, CHK0611, CHK0618, and CHK0625 from the source folder C:SOURCE
OBJECTIVE within the flat file if any records/rows cause error i have to move the bad data into separate folder C:ERROR
STEPS TAKEN
1) In FOREACH LOOP component i specified the variable User:: sourceFilePath for my source file CHK0604 etc. location C:SOURCE. The loop walkthrough each file in C:SOURCE and if no error then moves the flat file into another folder C:ARCHIVED. This task is perfectly working.
2) Within the dataflow I am diverting the the bad rows from "conditional component" into "Flat File Destination" Component.
3) "Flat File Destination" Connection manager i set the expressions as @[User:: sourceFilePath] +"_Error.TXT".
ISSUE
Because of point (3) the error file is created in the SOURCE flat file location C:SOURCE.
QUESTION
1) My error file name should be CHK0604_Error, CHK0611_Error, CHK0618_Error, CHK0625_Error created in another folder C:ERROR.
2) How to move the bad data into another directory while looping through a set of FLAT FILES ?
3) If i have to create another variable like @[User:: ErrorFilePath] where to create ? How to use the source file title as the title of error file.?
Thanks for the help

I have a requirement to move files from HOLD folder to input folder. In HOLD folder I receive multiple files starting with af, ai, ar i.e. af*.txt , ai*.txt, ar*.txt . I need to move one file at a time to input folder as each file is to be loaded into database before next file is processed. In all the files the SSIS has to look at ai*.txt files first followed by af*.txt and lastly ar*.txt. If there are multiple files of same group the file with oldest date has to be moved first. How do I achieve this?

I want to move the SQL Server 7.0 root directory from C:MSSQL7 to D:MSSQL7 (same host). I see the startup parameters under server properties could be changed to point to the new location, but Master has the paths to all the databases recorded in sysdatabases table, so at least that would have to change, and sysdevices table points to files on C:. And maybe the NT registry points to some files there too. Anyway, is there some established method to move it? If that isn't practical, at least I would want to move TEMPDB ( perhaps by using the SP_DETACH and SP_ATTACH method ). My main database is already on D: so I do not have to move it. Any informed advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
I want to move all files of one directory/folder into another usng SSIS, like in DOS Prompt we use the command,
Move d:ftpSource*.* d:ETLSource
I have tried by creating a file system task, but there is no option for Move Directory Contents. Move File is not accepting wild cards.
Regards,
Imran.

Hi all! I know I might sound stupid, but I have this problem. I have developed my database on my laptop which does not use Active directory. Lets say I access the database with: SPIDERMANDB1 on SQL server, where the name of my laptop is SPIDERMAN, and the database is DB1. Now, I create an SQL script from sql server and make the necessary changes, like changing the computer name to say, SUPERMAN where my deployment server's name is SUPERMAN. But when I run the SQL script on the SUPERMAN server, it gives me an error like: "User or role SUPERMANDB1 does not exist in this database". I have deployed databases in this way on servers without Acive directory, so I'm sure its not a mistake on my side. So how am I supposed to go around this active directory thingi! Please help me out! I'm counting on u guys!

I have a table T with columns Code datatype is nvarchar(5) andName nvarchar(30). Table T has 100 records and column Name only have data and column Code has Null values.
I have to generate csv files using this table data through SSIS . Each file should have 25 records and assign some static value(different for each file ex: file1 is T1 and file2 is T2..etc) in column Code . I am able to generate files with 25 records for each file but not able to assign different static value in different csv files. Is it possible using SSIS?

I attempted to use Move Directory to move the contents of one directory to another. I encountered the 'different volume' issue that others have experienced. While this error is frustrating I can work past this particular issue. My more pressing question is why is the move directory command overwriting a destination directory?
When I setup the Move directory file task I provided two vars to hold src and dest location:
dest var: estserveroutput
src var: devserverdev estfiles
Set overwrite destination = TRUE
Why would Move Directory overwrite output folder at destination? Shouldn't it only overwrite if the testfiles directory exists at destination? This is very frustrating since I cannot find enough information in the official documentation to understand what is happening here.
Is it just me or does the documentation for Move directory seem.....incomplete?

We have a hierarchical table of some 2-3k of rows that grows slowly at only 3-5 rows a month, and is never likely to be above 5k, holding file/directory names with an IdParent int value pointing at that items immediate parent or NULL if root
Below is a sample:
Id Name IdParent
1 C: NULL
2 D: NULL
3 ProgramFiles 1
4 DataFiles 2
5 Excel.EXE 3
6 MyDataList.CSV 4
iterative code required to achieve the result I am looking for is best handled in the Application layer, but in this case the design brief is that we must get our results back as a View. Speed of execution and code clarity are secondary 'icing on the cake' issues.
I have tried recursive CTE's and XML FOR solutions but without success, and while I feel the latter is probably the best all rounder the searches I have made and the examples I have read do not seem to solve this particular issue.
Even to find the starting point of the search tree (i.e. the .EXE and the .CSV items) was difficult because the final slash is optional in some of the rows (.e. row 4)
The end result of my view on the above data should return:
Id FilePath
5 C:ProgramFilesExcel.EXE
6 D:DataFilesMyDataList.CSV (note the adding of the missing delimiter between DataFiles and MyDataList)

I'm using Delphi 2006 to create a DLL which will be integrated into SQL 2005. It's been a long road and I've made a lot of headway, however I am currently having the following problem creating the stored procedure:
My dll name is 'Crystal_Reports_Test_01'
In the DLL, my class is named 'Class01'.
In the DLL, my procedure is named 'TestMe'
I've managed to integrate the DLL into SQL using the following statement:
CREATE ASSEMBLY TEST_ERIC_01
AUTHORIZATION dbo
FROM 'c:mssqlassembliescrystalreports.dll'
WITH PERMISSION_SET = UNSAFE
I am attempting to create the stored procedure which points to the 'TestMe' method inside of the DLL. FYI: 'CrystalReports' is the namespace above my class that I had to add in order to get it to locate the class. The following code is used to create the stored procedure:
create procedure dbo.Crystal_Reports_Test_01(
@Parm1 nvarchar(255)
)
as external name TEST_ERIC_01.[CrystalReports.Class01].TestMe
But I get the following error:
Msg 6573, Level 16, State 1, Procedure Crystal_Reports_Test_01, Line 1Method, property or field 'TestMe' of class 'CrystalReports.Class01' in assembly 'CrystalReports' is not static.
I'm not sure what this means exactly. I think it means the method (the procedure) is not using Static method binding but should be. I have no idea what this really means or how to accomplish this in the DLL - or if I'm even going about this in the right way.
Any help would be appreciated ! I'll post the Delphi code (DLL) below.
Thanks,
Eric Gooden
library CrystalReports;uses System.Reflection, System.Runtime.InteropServices;...................type Class01 = class public procedure TestMe([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] var sVarString: wideString); export; end;procedure Class01.TestMe([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] var sVarString: wideString); export;begin sVarString:= 'Lets change the value and see if the stored proc. gets the change.';end;end.

Hi,
How do I copy files from several subdirectories into the same directory? I have about 80 subdirectories of a parent directory from which I want to copy the files and place the copies into the same, flat destination directory. I tried using the copy file and copy directory file system tasks, but this always seems to recreate the subdirectory structure under the destination directory.
How can I get around this in SSIS?
Thanks in advance,
Bruce.

In SSIS, I was to:
take files from c:directory1
copy them to cirectory2 with a different name (concatenated date on the end)
delete them from c:directory1
Should I be using the Script Task for this? I am wondering if I should be using the File System Task which copies directories or files, but I don't know if I could rename the files during the copy.
Also, I want the directory names to be in the configuration file. I am not sure how to do this. If I set up a flat file source connection, I need to specify a file name and I just want the directory names. How do I get them in the config file and how to I read them into my script from the config file?

HI All,
I have Uzip Files to be loaded From ftp.companyname.com, the zip files get updated everyday thus i have to load the newly added files, the Zip file has got 13 text Files within it, the issue is:
1. how do i load it for the new zip file only, the zip files are shown below, i am trying using FTP Task, but need more info.
2. How do i UnZip it and and take the text files and then load them to sql server 2005, each text file has to be loaded to sql server tables.
3. How do i automate it, i mean every time i run the package (on Job based) it has to look the new file only, see the zip file below to understand what i am saying about.
02/25/2008 09:02PM 2,780,729 CompanyName_2008-02-22.zip
02/27/2008 09:04PM 1,274,557 CompanyName_2008-02-23.zip
02/25/2008 08:57PM 1,383,112 CompanyName_2008-02-24.zip
02/26/2008 04:21PM 3,327,882 CompanyName_2008-02-25.zip

02/28/2008 05:27PM 3,570,243 CompanyName_2008-02-27.zip
02/29/2008 04:20PM 3,444,375 CompanyName_2008-02-28.zip

03/04/2008 04:49PM 3,238,121 CompanyName_2008-03-03.zip
As you can see the Zip file names are the blues color, they are added at different time, thus what i need is only the current Zip file (i mean i have to Load only the newly added Zip file (recent one)). Thus the SSIS Task has to go to this FTP server and look the newly added zip file. After that i have Unzip it b/se i have 13 text files there, and then Load them to Sql Server 2005.
Please get help on this, the deadline is near by time, if possible try as soon as possible, I would like to say Thank you for every help you do and try.
Thanks,
