Pipeline Error-excel Source-data Reader Does Not Read In Meta Data
Hi all, i got this error:
[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?
Thanks

Meta Data Synchronization With Excel File Source Once We Update The File
hi all; 1. Excel file Source--> monthly Revenue details 2. Derived Colum Transoformations 3. Oledb Destination its my flow in one of my packates (ETL job) Excel file contains monthly revenue details, i wanna import the excel data to my database staging table, so i've created the package. its working fine... Problem if we change the new data for the next month and running the package its not running; the same file, same format, only we delete the contents, of the file except first row of the excel sheet, and pasting the new data; new data is coming from Oracle DataBase in the form of excel sheet ( manually they will copy the data and sending to us) i open that package in design mode and while double clicking the excel file source it says <column name>'s Meta Data needs to be synchronized Do you want to Fix this issue automatically with the available external column's meta data Clearly noted that its a data type issue; i have changed the corresponding data types as it is in the previous Excel sheet which is equivalant to the Table its copying to. now the package is running with validation warnings, External Column "Invoice Amount" needs to be updated...etc. some 2 or three warning messages i can able to see in the package Execution wizard, ok, i'm ready to accept these warnings, and i want my package running from my server;( packages had been deployed in to the Centeralized server; every time if we want to run the package, we have the asp.net webpage, that is executing the package in an On_click event) The package is not running from the server, its due to the meta data change in the Excel file( i guess) please suggest me some guide lines to resolve this meta data issue, i want my excel sheet meta data should not change when we have new updates in it; otherwise suggest me some solutions that i can validate the excel sheet before running the package and testing whether the data is in correct format or not? its a kind of Data Profiling activity; i know its some what crazy, but i need to maintain the system with permanent solution, instead of facing this meta data mismatch issue!!! some what lenthy explanation--> its needed for my dear powerful microsoft responders. i think i 've explained my problem clearly, if i don't let me know your queries, i'll try my level best.

Truncation Of String Data With Data Reader Source Connecting To ODBC DSN
A data reader is using a connection manager to connect to an ODBC System DSN . A query in the SqlCommand property is provided. Data is being truncated in the only string column . The data type in data reader output-->external columns shows as Unicode string [DT_WSTR] Length 7. The truncated output in a text file is the first 3 characters from left to right . Changing the column order has no effect. A linked server was created in SQL Server Management Studio to test the ODBC System DSN using the following: EXEC sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'server_name', @srvproduct = '', @provider = 'MSDASQL', @datasrc = 'odbc_dsn_name' Data returned using "OPENQUERY" does not truncate the string column indicating that the ODBC Driver returns data as expected with sql 2005, but not with the Data Reader. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks,

Inconsistent Result Using Data Reader Source To Get Data From DB2
I am having a very wierd issue regarding a DB2 sql query. I need to get data from Db2 and insert into our sql server database. Using data flow task, to get data I am using the data reader source. COnnection is ado.netodbc connection. THis sql query also has some comments in it. The first wierd thing is... 1. On Development server, when I run this query manually, meaning using toad, winsql (connection to the db2 database), the query runs fine. Brings back approx 667 rows which is correct. ON the same server when I try to run this query, via a SSIS pkg, data flow task, using data reader source, gives me error on those comments that exist in that query. But if I run the same SSIS pkg on another server (Integration server). It runs fine. The same pkg also runs fine if I run it from my machine. SO What is different on my Dev server compared to the Integration server. 2. Say if I take those comments out from the sql query, then try to run the ssis pkg. The query is stuck at the first record and goes in an infinite loop mode. though my query is not a procedure, it is just a sql statement. But this ssis pkg with the query runs absolutly fine on the other server. I aslo tried using the other types of connection and ole db source but still the same problem on the Dev server. What do I need to look for that is so different on the dev server compare to the INT server. I also checked the version on both these server for Visual Studio 2005(by going to About Microsoft Visual Studio), it is the same. This is what I have on both the servers.... Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Designer Version 9.00.3042.00 Please HELP !!!! Thank you. Jinita

Using Variables In A Data Reader Source
Greetings SSIS friends, I have tried using a sql command for my data reader source. I added the following expression to my datareader source : "select * from result where result_id > " + @[max_result_id] but I get the following error message : The SQL command has not been set correctly. Check SQLCommand property. I then got rid of the variable (defined at package level) and replaced it with a string like so : "select * from result where result_id > " + "123456" but I still get the same error message! What am I doing wrong?! Please advise.

Transferring Data From Read-only Source To Destination.
Hi, I have read only permission in the source (OLTP) database. The source database is running in SQL Server 2000 and the size is more than 200 GB. I need to pull data from source and load target which is running in SQL server 2005. Following are the objectives I want to achieve. Data should be loaded on incremental basis. Whatever changes take place (Update/Delete) in source, that should be replicated to already uploaded data. Here I want to mention that, the source database does not have any identification key or timestamp column like Updated_Date by which I can filter the data which are recently inserted or updated into the source and upload the same. The source does not maintain any history data also. So I do not have any track of deleted record also. I don€™t have any scope to change the schema in the source. In this scenario can anybody suggest me the best approach to achieve the above mentioned objectives? Can I retrieve only the recent updated or inserted date form transaction log back up. Can log shipping solve the give the solution? One more question. Say I have a table and I am exporting/importing all the data from/to my target table using SSIS or DTS. In this scenario does using query or using directly the table affects the performance? Regards Sudripta Rakshit

Excel 2007 PIVOT As Data Source
Hi, We have a excel 2007 file with a Pivot Table in it. We would like to use the same as data source (But all the source fields as it comes for Pivot). The key issue is that the data to the pivot is from a connection and points to DB - but there is no access to DB. So the Excel is static to us with a PIVOT in it. Is there a way to get all the data that is avaialble as a source for pivot. Ex. The select query has co1,co2....co 11 from xxxxx whereas the PIVot HAS ONLY cO1, CO2 AS ROW, CO3,CO4 AS COL, CO5 AS VALUE AND CO6,CO7 AS FILTER AND OTHERS MISSED OUT IN PIVOT. THe SSIS as such provide Excel 2007 access to Access OLE DB driver with Excel 12 setting in advanced tab. But not sure whether we can give the range (or) a way around ot get all the data as available in excel regardless of what is used only in the pivot. Regards, kart

Changing DataTypes In An Excel Data Source
Hello. I'm importing some data from an excel file to sql server 2005. I created an Excel Data Source inside my Data Flow Task but it is assuming that the source columns DataType is double-precision float [DT_R8]. It isn't, even though some rows may containg numeric string in the column's cell. If I go to the Data Sources advanded editor, and modify the data type property of the column, SSIS complains the the error output and the source output are not of the same DataType. If I try to change the error output's data type in the advanced editor I get this error: "Property Value". The deailed error states: Error at MOVIM 04 [MOVIM 04 [1]]: The data type for "output "Excel Source Error Output" (10)" cannot be modified in the error "output column "Agente Protector" (7662)". Error at MOVIM 04 [MOVIM 04 [1]]: Failed to set property "DataType" on "output column "Agente Protector" (7662)". If i let SSIS correct the error by itself, it changed the dource column back to double-precision float [DT_R8]. Is there any way to get arround this? Thanks in advance, Hugo Oliveira

Data Flow Task Error To Extract Data From Sql Server To Excel

I don't have any warnings before trying to execute.

But this is supposed to be "Unicode text stream [DT_NTEXT]". Even if I change the data type in the design time, It doesn't accept. Please do help me out. thanks Sanra

How To Change Data Types In Excel Source File?
I'm getting a bit lost in SSIS. I've got an Excel source file that I'm trying to load into a table. I keep getting validation errors that warn about not being able to convert between unicode and non-unicode string data types. I'm trying figure out where I have to change this and am frankly confused. It seems SSIS is selecting various columns as unicode/WSTR data types, but I want them to import as regular string types. On the Data Flow tab in SSIS, I right-click on the source Data Flow component (the Excel file) and select Show Advanced Editor. Then on the last tab, Input and Output Properties, there's a tree view for the Excel output. There are "External Columns" and "Output Columns" containers in the tree view. I tried setting some of these but they don't seem to "take". Do I need to change the data type for each column under both the External and Output columns? That seems like a lot of work! And, as I say, I tried setting some, but I still got the same validation errors. So, then I go back to this spot (Advanced Editor -> Input and Output Properties tab) and my changes seem to have been lost. Any help would be appreciated!

Excel Source Numeric/string Data Problem

Source Data Types In Excel Defined Incorrectly
I'm trying to import some data from an Excel 2007 file into a SQL table. I created the Source Connection Manager and an OLE DB Source Data Flow Component which uses it. (Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't use the Excel Source because of the version of Excel the file is saved in.) The outgoing Data Flow Path thinks some of the fields being imported should be of type float, when in fact they have alpha characters in them. The fields in the database are defined as varchars. A Data Conversion Transform doesn't seem right because I need the data to come out of the source as string data (which it actually is in the Excel file). Even if I convert it to string on the way to the destination, I would still be missing the original alpha characters. How/Where do I change it (Source Connect Manager, OLE DB Source Data Flow Component, something else) to correctly identify the field's type? TIA, Christy

Excel Source From Variables And Data Type Issue
Hi I am after some help with the following issue I have a package that reads a table for a file path of a excel file. This gets passed to a variable and then this file is imported into a staging table for further transformation work. The issue i have is that file 1 may contain data in Column A which is 50 characters long in which case i have to import the excel as a DT_WSTR, do a data conversion to a DT_STR and load to the staging table. However file 2 may contain data in Column which is over 255 characters in which case it would import as a DT_NTEXT which i then transform to a DT_TEXT and then to a DT_STR. I used a fixed file path in the Excel Connection to start with which was for File 1 so the datatype for column 1 is a DT_WSTR. I then changed the excel connection to a filepath variable, put the path of file 2 in my table and called it from my package. It failed as the data exceeding 255 characters in column 1 needed to be a DT_NTEXT. I can change it and it works but if i then run the package using file 1 (less than 255 characters) it fails again as it wants it to be a DT_WSTR. Is there anyway around this? Am i missing something as i would have thought that by setting it to DT_NTEXT this would cover data under 255 characters as well. Any help is gratefully aprreciated.

Error: Cannot Read The Next Data Row For The Data Set
Hi all, I have noticed quite a few other posts about this error. My feeliing is that it has various causes requiring different remedies. I could not find anything suitable for my situation, so I post this in case someone can offer some tip. The error happens during subscription report generation. The following is from the SRS's log file: ReportingServicesService!runningjobs!14!1/21/2008-10:35:37:: w WARN: Thread pool pressure. Using current thread for a work item.

How Do I Extract Data From Selected Rows From My Excel Source File?
The columns in my excel source contain data of different types with the column name being a string and the data in those columns being integers. Is there any way to only extract numeric data , in short I want column names to be omitted. Also the data is distributed unevenly , beggining at various rows in each column. Thanking in advance :)

Import Excel Data From User-selected Source File
Is it possible to import data from an Excel spreadsheet using OPENROWSET or OPENDATASOURCE without having to explicitly define the filepath of the source file? Currently, I have this piece of code within a sproc: INSERT INTO [dbo].[ProductionRequirementDetail] ([ProductionRequirementHeaderID], [SKU], [Quantity]) SELECT @ProductionRequirementHeaderID, [SKU], [LAMPS] FROM OPENROWSET ('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Excel 8.0; Database=C:WeeklySchedule.xls', 'SELECT * FROM [Master$C5:Q65536]') AS XL LEFT JOIN [dbo].[PartMaster] ON (RIGHT([XL].[CODE], 7) = [PartMaster].[SKU]) WHERE [SKU] IS NOT NULL AND [CODE] IS NOT NULL AND [LAMPS] IS NOT NULL AND [LAMPS] > 0 AND [LampTypeID] = @LampTypeID I would like to remove the hardcoded reference 'Database=C:WeeklySchedule.xls' and replace it with a parameter for the filepath. Is this possible? This is in SQL Server 2000. Also, if there is a way to do this with DTS I'd be open to doing it that way too.

Certain Numeric Fields Not Read From The Excel File When Using A Excel File Source.
I have the Excel Connection Manager and Source to read the contents from an Excel file. For some reason couple of numeric fields from the Excel worksheet are brought over as nulls even though they have a value of 300 and 150. I am not sure why this is happening. I looked into the format of the fields and they are set to General in Excel, I tried setting them to numeric and that did not help. All the other content from the excel file is coming thru except for the 2 numeric fields. I tried to bring the contents from the excel source to a text file in csv format and for some reason the 2 numeric fields came out as blank. Any inputs on getting this addressed will be much appreciated. Thanks, Manisha

Data Reader Or Data Adapter With Data Set?
I have used both data readers and data adapters(with datasets) in the projects that I have worked on. I am trying to get some clarification on when I should be using which one. I think I am doing this correctly but I want to be sure I am developing good habits. As the name might suggest, it seems like a datareader is for only reading data. I have read that the data adapter and dataset are for a disconnected architecture. Or, that they can be used for this type of set up. I have been using the data adapter and datasets when writing to a database and the datareader when reading from a database. Is this how these should be used? Is the data reader the best choice for reading data? Am I doing this the optimal way from a performance stand point? ......................................................thanks in advance

XML Data Source Query - Receive Error On Report Execution;however Data Is Returned In Query Builder
Hello, I'm atttempting to do a test case using a Web Service to return data to a report. I'm trying to use a web based web service - http://www.webservicex.net/uszip.asmx?op=GetInfoByState€™. After finally figuring out the Query Syntax - in Query Builder I returned values. Im using an XML datasource where the connection string is: http://www.webservicex.net/uszip.asmx?op=GetInfoByState€™ The query I'm using is: <Query> <Method Namespace="http://www.webserviceX.NET" Name="GetInfoByState"> <Parameters> <Parameter Name="USState" Type="String"> </Parameter> </Parameters> </Method> <SoapAction>http://www.webserviceX.NET/GetInfoByState</SoapAction> <ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="True">GetInfoByStateResponse{}/GetInfoByStateResult{}/NewDataSet/Table{CITY,STATE, ZIP, AREA_CODE, TIME_ZONE}</ElementPath> </Query> I then set the Parameters in the Parameter tab setting the Parameters tab of the Dataset, naming one parameter USState and setting its value to the Report Parameter (Parameters!State.Value) Like I said I launch this in the Query Builder, it prompts me for the State, and based on what State I supply it returns the information. I've then created a table to return the rows and once I launch in Preview mode I receive the following error: [rsErrorLoadingCodeModule] Error while loading code module: €˜http://www.webservicex.net/uszip.asmx?op=GetInfoByState€™. Details: Could not load file or assembly 'http://www.webservicex.net/uszip.asmx?op=GetInfoByState' or one of its dependencies. The given assembly name or codebase was invalid. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131047) Any help or ideas would be appreciated! Thank You, Maureen
