Variables In Ssis Designer

Oct 22, 2007

Hi there,

I have a script which grabs data from a source server. The problem is I have over 50 source servers, so I have to make a script for each one.. EXACTLY the same code but different linked server address.

So I was wondering if i can put the server name into a variable so I only need to make one script.
Is that possible?

thanks,

Enhancement: SSIS Designer

May 3, 2006

Not quite sure if this is the right place for this comment...

While using SSIS Designer came across a DUE where the package was setup to:

SEQ1 - Truncate staging tables
SEQ2 - Load staging tables (sequence container had been setup to hold multiple data flows)

For some reason one data flow was run before the truncate table sequence.

Looking in the designer it appeared that the dataflow was a member of SEQ2 but looking at the Package Explorer it was outside the sequence container.

It would be good to have some visible indicator to show that a task is a member/not a member of a container

SSIS Dataflow Designer Bug

Jul 19, 2006

When I drop a new component onto the design surface, it appears with dotted lines around it, as it is selected.

But, the F2 key (the hotkey for rename) does not work.

I have to click on some other component, and then back on the new component, and then the F2 key works.

I remember reporting this bug back in the beta cycle, but it is still present even in the release -- I actually think Ã?'m using the SP1 version of 2005, but see version info below to be sure:


Remote terminal services broke my copy buffer again, as is so often does, so pasting in the version info failed -- falling back to manual typing -- SSIS 9.00.2047.00.

SSIS Package Designer Performance After Installing SP1

Jan 9, 2007

Hi,

When I installed SP1 on my SQL Server 2005, the performance of the package designer dropped enormously. I have to wait like 30 seconds after I drag-and-drop a datasource from the toolbox to the design area. Also it takes a very long time to run the very simple package. Not to mention opening some complicated package that was done before applying SP1. The package scheduled in SQL Agent went from 3-4min to 5-6min.

Can anyone address this issue? Maybe there's something I did wrong?

While installing SP1 I ecountered strange behaviour (some messages about file locking, rebooting and stuff), but in the end it said that it was successful

Best Regards
Wojtek

SSIS Package Designer Error Displaying The Layout

Aug 10, 2007

Our Visual Studio installation suddenly starting producing the error below upon trying to open any .dtsx package; although by "suddenly" I'm sure it was due to some Windows update or other program install, update, or uninstall. I've spent two days uninstalling, reinstalling, and repairing everything that is seemingly related to VS, but no luck. I've searched the forums and could not find this specific error mentioned, although I have tried some of the suggestions to fix possibly related 'class not registered' errors, but again no luck.

SSIS Package Designer Lookup Component GUI Error?

Jul 5, 2006

Has anybody seen this issue already?

If you try to "enable memory restriction" from the Lookup component GUI you need to input both 32 and 64 bit size of maximum memory. However when clicking "OK" on the editor you get a message like :

TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------

Error at Update Execution Logs [Lookup folder path 1 [4429]]: Failed to set property "MaxMemoryUsage64" on "component "Lookup folder path 1" (4429)".



------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0204006 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)

------------------------------
BUTTONS:

OK
------------------------------


You can only set the properties directly for mthe Properties window (F4).

I think this is a post SP1 bug in Visual studio designer...

Unlike SQL Server 2000 DTS, SSIS Flat File Connection Manager Editor does not provide available list of Text qualifier,

My file sample looks like this

"Col1","Col2"
"1234","3456"
"3456","1234"

what qualifier should I use then?

Using Variables In SSIS

May 16, 2006

Hi there,

This is what I am trying to do :

1) Create a global variable.
2) assign a value to the variable using an SQL Task. (For this all I want to do is assign a maximum value from a column in my table)

3) use the variable in a Data flow task (using SQL to get my source data)

I know this must be very simple but I am new to SSIS and I am struggling to achieve this task.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Using Variables On SSIS

Aug 2, 2007

Hi,

I'm trying to use a variable in a OLEDB Command, but i can't do it.
What i want to do is:
Step 1: Count the number of rows of a table (using count rows transofrmation) and save it to a variable 'var1'.
Step2: Insert some rows on this table.
Step 3: Count again the number of rows and save it on another variable 'var2'.
Step 4: Ina OLEDB Command , get the inserted records in step 2 to manipulate them on other tables...

Something like that: select top (@var2 - @var1) * from table order by desc

¿Can i use local or global variables from an OLEDB Command transformation object?

SQL 2012 :: XML SSIS Variables

Sep 17, 2015

I have a process which connects to a SQL server remotely, runs some code, creates a temporary table with an output. I want to be able to select the results of this table into XML (not a problem), put the results into a variable in SSIS, and put the variable results into a SQL table a different SQL Instance. Doing it this way removes the footprint of needing a normal table on the source SQL Server.

SSIS Global Variables

Jul 10, 2007

Before in DTS, I used to using ActiveX scripts to setup simple Global Variables that would later be used by the package, let's say a give state or a date.
I'm completely lost how to do the same in SSIS, can someone give me a hand?
I'm not sure what component to use and how to read this variable.

SSIS Package && Variables

Aug 15, 2006

I have a SSIS package that was migrated from DTS 2000. It had a variable that I passed to the DTS package when executing. Now when I try executing the SSIS package with the variable, I get the following error: The package path referenced an object that cannot be found: "package.variables[user::SnapShotDate].value". This occurs when an attempt is made to resolve a package path to an object that cannot be found.

From everything that I can find, I am passing the variable correctly. If I look at the package within BIDS, my variable is listed under the variable window & it is scoped for the package. Any ideas on what I might be missing here? This is my first SSIS package that contains a variable.

Let me know if you need more info.

Thanks!

Using SQL Variables In SSIS Packages

Jul 7, 2007

I have a simple task that I would like to manage through a SSIS package but do not know how to accomplish it. I need to perform the following tasks:

1. update a sql server table (ecwcust) and set the ftpstatus column to 'P' when the column's value is 'E'.
update ecwcust set ftpstatus = 'P' where ftpstatus = 'E'
2. declare a variable and set the variable to the number of rows that have a ftpstatus equal to 'P'
declare @newcustomercount int
select @newcustomercount = count(*) from ecwcust where ftpstatus = 'P'
3. if @newcustomercount > 0, copy all of the rows from ecwcust where ftpstatus = 'P' to an excel spreadsheet.
4. send an email to an email recipient with the excel spreadsheet as an attachment.
5. delete the excel spreadsheet.

I do not know how to create the variable @newcustomercount so that I can determine whether or not to create the excel spreadsheet and copy the records to it.
I have read all the online help and stuff that MS has but I can't understand the instructions. Please point me to some instructions that are understandable.

SSIS Variables Not Changing Value?!

Jun 6, 2006

Greetings my SQL friends,

I have a very simple package which consists of a SQL Task component and a Script Task.

The SQL Task retrieves a single value from 1 row table in one of my database and assigns that value to a variable. The Script task simply outputs the value of the variable in to a message box. I know, it's all simple stuff (I am trying to master SSIS )

The problem I have is that when I change the value of the column in my table, the value of the variable is not changing when I re-run my package. It seems to be the same value every time.

What am I doing wrong?!

Your help would be much appreciated.

SSIS Variables In SQL Agent

Feb 25, 2006

I need to pass a value to a package level variable in an SSIS package from a SQL Agent job. If I use dtexecui the syntax for passing the variable in the Property Path is

Package.Variables[User::MyVar].Properties[Value]

and the package runs fine.

When I use this syntax, or any similar format I can think of, in SQL Agent, my job fails. In SQL Agent you put this in the Property Path on the Set Values tab of the Step that runs the package. If I remove passing in the variable my package runs fine.

BOL says use the format Package<container name>.<property name> but I can find no examples. Can anyone provide a working sample to make this work?

Thanks.

Variables In SSIS Package

Jan 22, 2008



I have defined an active X task (converting from SQL 2000)


Function Main()


DTSGLOBALVARIABLES("TEST").Value= InputBox("TEST : ","Message Box")

Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success

End Function


The problem is that this variable is not recognized by the subsequent tasks although I have defined a variable "TEST" in the variable lists.

Is there something else to do to get it recognized ?

Thanks for helping,

SQL 2012 :: Using Variables In SSIS Tasks

Dec 2, 2014

I have this procedure to remove certain characters from file names.

The SQL Task has this: exec dbo.spCleanseFileName @strFileName = ?, @strFileNameCleansed = ?

The stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[spCleanseFileName](@strFileName varchar(40),@strFileNameCleansed varchar(40) output)

I have it in an SSIS package and my problem is that, after that SQL Task completes, the value for the
),@strFileNameCleansed variable is blank. I HAVE confirmed that the procedure DOES set the correct value inside the SP.

SQL 2012 :: SSIS And Variables With Where Clause

Jan 15, 2015

I have an SSIS package which uses variables and foreach loop containers so connect to multiple instances to retrieve config data. I am adding an extra step to include the port of each instance.

I used a select from a central table to get the connection strings, which is put into [User::Server2]

1) execute SQL task to collect the port

(DECLARE @portNumber NVARCHAR(10)
EXEC xp_instance_regread
@rootkey = 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE',
@key =

'SoftwareMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLServerSuperSocketNetLibTcpIpAll',
@value_name = 'TcpPort',
@value = @portNumber OUTPUT
)

Which is then put into a variable @Portnumber

2) I then need to insert this into a certain server with a where clause including another variable

so something like
"INSERT INTO DBO.InstanceConfig VALUES ('"+@[User::Portnumber]+"') where Serverinstance = ('"+@[User::Server2]+"')

but it doesnt work like that.. is there an easier way

Trying To Use SSIS Variables Within SQL Queries Associated With Lookup

Nov 30, 2007

I'm trying to understand how to use SSIS variables within SQL commands and which Data Flow toolbox objects I can use for this. My simple package has a OLE DB Source object that returns the rows in a table. For the next operation, the output from the OLE DB Source is input into a Lookup data flow transformation where there is a select query that returns another value from a different table...

select bla from myTable where dbname = db_name()

The output is then passed on to an OLE DB Destination.

The above lookup query only works because, it so happens, that I could get a unique and correct result back filtered by current database name. However, due to other required changes, I now have introduce more 'where clauses'. I have all the necessary clause information in SSIS variables (iterated via a For Each loop). I would like do something like...

select bla from myTable where dbname = ? and bla_type = ?

However, there isn't a facility for Parameters in the Lookup object's 'use results of a SQL query'. I can see that I can use parameters in the OLE DB Source object by changing the 'data access mode' to SQL Query. However, it doesn't seem valid to join two OLE DB Source objects together in the data flow? I can't see any other suitable objects in the Data Flow toolbox. Ideally, I would be able to use Parameters in the Lookup object or some other object that would do the same job.

Thanks,
Clive

Setting SSIS Variables In SQLAgent Using VB.net

May 13, 2008

This is a fun one. I have a job that runs a SSIS package. It has some variables that I set a runtime. How can I programmatically change the values for these variables using SMO? I can get to the step in the job using VB but I can't find a way to programmatically change the value of the parameters of the job. The code loops through every property of the SSIS step. There's a command string but that's an ugly beast to code against. Any help is appreciated.


With oStep

Console.Write("Name: " + .Name + vbTab)

Console.Write("Proxy Account: " + .ProxyName + vbTab)

Console.Write("Type: " + .SubSystem.ToString + vbTab)

SSIS Variables Window Not Coming Up

Dec 13, 2007



I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but i'm having an issue where SSIS Variables window will not come up. The most i get is a gray bar that looks like it is supposed to hold the variables.

I've tried getting it to show by:
1) Menu --> SSIS --> Variables
2) Right Click --> Variables
3) Menu --> View --> Other Windows --> Variables

The same thing seems to happen for "log events" in Menu --> View --> Other Windows --> Log Events.

Does anyone know how to fix this? Is anyone else having this problem?!?!?!

-Thanks Thames
