Hi,
Excuse me for the 'noobish' question but it seems in my mining models, i am 'loosing' input variables. I am using the Microsoft Decision Tree algorithm and eventhough i have set 4 variables as 'input' and all 4 of them are in my mining structure, the model is using only 3. That 4th variable is also missing from the dependency network graph. Can anyone help me solve this problem?
I have a very newbie question...I'm trying to figure out how to get a script on this site (specifically sp_Create_MyDB_Backup_Job.sql) to work.
The author says it needs input parameters:
@DatabaseName , @BackupLocation,@FileName,@JobName
I'm trying to figure out how to get this to work with osql...do I need to hardwire the variables...like @databasename = "master" ?
Can anybody tell me the perfomance difference for 2 sql statements below:
select count(*) from products where prodID between 20987 and 21003
go
declare @ProdID1 int
declare @prodID2 int
set @ProdID1 = 20987
set @prodID2 = 21003
select count(*) from products where prodID between @ProdID1 and @prodID2
First statement takes 1 second to execute and second statement takes more than one minute. I don't understand what is the problem with using variables.
Thanks

Hi,
I want to convert a SQL query as shown below into a stored procedure:
select name
from namelist
where town in ('A','B','D')
If I want to make the town as the input variable into the stored procedure, how should I declare the stored procedure? As far as I know, stored procedure could only handle individual values, and not a range of values.
Thanks.
Hi,
I have a SSIS package with a Sequence which Contains a Webservice Task, in the input section of this task i want to pass a User Variable as Parameter for my webmethod. but it doesn´t work, it allways sends the variable definition as string "@[User::Filename]". so i searched Microsoft Technet how to pass User Variables in Webservice Tasks and found this site: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187617.aspx
which says :
"
Variable
Select the check boxes to use variables to provide inputs. "
but there is no such checkbox on the input page of my Webservice Task... there is just the Value column which i can edit... but as mentioned before when i try to set the value to a variable it doesn work
i tried the following strings in the value column:
@[User::Filename]
@Filename
User::Filename
@User::Filename
any ideas?
thanks for your help

I am executing a stored proc with in the Execute SQL Task using OLEDB provider. I am passing the data as
ConnectionType: OLEDB
Connection : to my database
SQLSourceType: Direct
SQL Statment : Exec mysp 'table1',OUTPUT,OUTPUT
In the parmeter mappings:
variable1--direction Output, datatype Long, Parameter name: 0
variable2--direction Output, datatype date, Parameter name: 1
The variable 1 is created as int32 and variable 2 is created as dattime.
When i execute the SQLtask, I get error:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "Exec mysp 'table1',OUTPUT,OUTPUT" failed with the following error: "Error converting data type nvarchar to int.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
What am i missing. I tried changing the data types adding the input variable also as a variable in the mapping. Nothing seems to work. Any ideas please?

HiThe scenario:The price of products are determined by size.I have a Prices table that contains 3 columnsWidth Length and Price.User inputs their own width and length values as inWidth and inLength.It is unlikely that these values will exactly match existing lengths and widths in the price table.I need to take these User Input values and round them up to the nearest values found in the Prices table to pull the correct price.What is the most efficient way of achieving this?Thanks for your time.C# novice!

1) is there any way to run a query over a query without having to create a table with the results of the first query? (would drop table work? If so, how?
2) how can i define input variables the same way i do in excel? I am trying to run a couple of simulations based on 2 core inputs (in excel i would just do a data table)
Hi all,
We recently converted an application from accecc97 to access2003.
We used to have 2 databases : 1 with all and only the data (axelD.mbd), 1 with all the forms, query's, ... (axelP.mdb)
We replaced the data (axelD.mdb) with an MSDE database, through UPSIZE and so on. That all worked fine.
This database is placed on the dataserver (DATA1), the converted programm is on the FRONT2 server (FRONT1 stil usess access97 until conversion is totally ready).
We are able to connect to the MSDE by using ADODB recordsets.
We are also perfect able to link the MSDEtables in our axelP.mbd database
We started to test some heavier parts of our application and started to get the following error:
"ERROR 3151"
"ODBC--connection to 'JOROSOFT' failed"
Nothing more.
This happened in a quite complex routine, whitch updates a lot of records, several times and so on.
We could reproduce the same error when executing the following code:
Public Function TestBestellingen()
Dim sql As String
Dim intervalset As DAO.Recordset
Dim planset As DAO.Recordset
Dim tellerke
x = Opendatabases()
tellerke = 0
sql = "Select bestelnummer from vkpbestellijn where bestelnummer > 100000"
Set planset = Db_AxelP.OpenRecordset(sql, dbOpenDynaset)
Do While Not planset.EOF
tellerke = tellerke + 1
Debug.Print tellerke & " - " & planset!Bestelnummer & " --> " & IsKlantStof(planset!Bestelnummer)
planset.MoveNext
Loop
End Function
Function IsKlantStof(p_bestelnummer)
Dim sql As String, rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim hulp_klantstof As Boolean
hulp_klantstof = False
x = Opendatabases()
sql = "select klantstof from vkpbestellijn where bestelnummer = " & p_bestelnummer
Set rst = Db_AxelP.OpenRecordset(sql, dbOpenSnapshot)
With rst
Do While Not .EOF
If !KlantStof = True Then
hulp_klantstof = True
.MoveLast
End If
.MoveNext
Loop
End With
rst.Close
Set rst = Nothing
IsKlantStof = hulp_klantstof
End Function
Function Opendatabases()
If Db_AxelP Is Nothing Then
Set Db_AxelP = DBEngine(0)(0)
End If
End Function
I know this code makes no sence in a real-time environment, but it was to reproduce the error.
This code basically runs trough a 30.000 records and does a little check for certain fields
After 1981 records we get the above error.
(sometimes after 1979 or 1980 or 1982 records)
1977 - 100859 --> True
1978 - 100860 --> True
1979 - 100860 --> False
1980 - 100861 --> True
1981 - 100861 --> True
"vkpbestellijn" is a table that is linked in the AxelP.mdb trough an ODBC connection.
We get the same error (and after 1981 times) if I change the where to a totally other range of "bestelnummer"
I have installed the latest patches of Jet 4.0, MSDE-server, ...
I've been searching the internet for abour 3 days now, and just cant even find the smallest clue what could make this happen.
I hope someone here has an idea.
If you need more details, just ask.
tia,
Axel.
P.S. I'm from Belgium, so my english aint "correct to the point".

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have posted this in the SQL Server Data Access forum but wondered if this was a better location.
We have two Server 2005 boxes and one Sever 2000.
About 3 months ago we started experiencing random database connection drops.
These were manifested by exception errors in database applictions that have worked fine for years.
The .NET application exception message: "The specified network name is no longer available"
The Delphi application exception message: "Possible network error. Write to SQL Server Failed."
Server Management Studio also started giving the error:
"Msg 10054, Level 20, State 0, Line 0
A transport-level error has occurred when sending the request to the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.)"
All three servers randomly lose connections.
All our clients randomly lose connections.
I don't think its a network problem because only db applications seem to be affected.
Also, a client can be running two or more db applications. Application A will fail, while B marches on unaffected.
Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?
I would like a way to monitor the SQL Server connections but am not sure how.
sys.sysprocesses seems to show all the connections, but it doesn't show when a connection is being terminated.
SQL Server log shows no connection messages.
Thank you and Help!
Hi all,
Configuration : MSSQL2005 SP2 on Windows 2003 server
I have a strange issue when scheduling SSIS Job.
When I schedule it, I set the owner as the domain administrator. The scheduled job can be run manually without any problem. The scheduled job run automatically at scheduled time wihtout problem.
But , for an unknow reason, after some cycle, the job failed with the following error :
The job failed. The owner () of <name of the job> does not have server access
As you can see, the owner name is blank.
If I look to the job settings : the owner is still the domain administrator.
If I try to run it manually, the job fails with the same error.
now if I just rename the job name from <name of the job> to <name of the job2> then all problems are solved.
If we let the job failing everyday, sometimes, it starts again to work properly.
We have this issue on 2 jobs.
If anyone has faced this issue : thank you for advise.

Hello all!
There is a bug in SQL-2005/2008 Replication system, which may break data integrity, when using @@IDENTITY function to update FOREIGN KEY of some table.
When Merge replication is set up, and there is a table article with IDENTITY column in it, after inserting a new row in the table a value of @@IDENTITY function does not actually shows just inserted row's identity value.
This issue also generated when performing inserts via ADO.
For details, see my Feedback to Microsoft:

When loading a table in a data flow from a text file that contains non-null float values, I am seeing erratic and inconsistent results. I am presently using SQL Server Destination in a data flow.
- With low volumnes of data, less that 50,000 rows, no problems
- But with higher volumnes, 2,000,000+ rows, I get different results depending on how I run the package. If I run is directly (right-click and click on Execute), I get the expected result.
But if I use SQL Server Agent to run the package, half of the values are lost and nulls are loaded instead. I have inspected the into text file and there are few rows with null for the column.
Any help would be appreciated!

I have a script and on one of the tables I keep loosing the mapping of the last 4 fields. If I go into the task it will ask me if I want it to automatically fix it and I say yes and remap fields but when I run it it bombs and comes back and when I go back into it it tells me there is a problem with same fields. It also rearanges the order and puts these fields last.
I have tried deleting and redoing the transformation only to have the same thing happen. Almost seems like a bug in software. I have seen this before but usually when I fix it it does not return.
Hi All,
i'm using a "data conversion" object to convert a numeric field to a string just before i save the record set to the database.
the problem is when this numeric field is > 0 it looses the precision on its decimal value.
example, if numeric value is 0.32
after converting this to a string, the new value will be : .32
it's lost the 0 infront of it. i can't do this converion in the query level because it's a derived field, so i need to convert it to a string before stroing it.
when converting to string i'm using the code page 1252 (ANSI - Latin I). i also tried with unicode string both looses this 0 infront.
can any one help on this?
I created a custom transform that has a custom interface and is a wizard that uses a web service. It creates custom properties and output columns on the fly. I set the dialog result to Ok and close at the end of the steps. The transform then has the custom fields and output columns I created in the wizard. I've verified this by right clicking on the transform and going to the advanced editor. If I then immediately run the package, the custom fields don't exist in the CustomPropertiesCollection. If I close the package and reopen it, the properties now are gone. If I then go through the wizard again, thus recreating the properties, they stay and don't disappear. The quickest way to get a working transform is to add it to my data flow then save, close and reopen the package and then go through the wizard. Just saving after I add the transform does not help.
Does anyone know what might be causing this very strange problem?
Hi,
I experienced this problems on both Windows Mobile 2003 SE and Windows Mobile 5.0.
Its native development (c++, oledb, atl and mfc).
It's quite simple to reproduce...
1. open a database
2. open a rowset on table A (whatever, valid of course and with both IOpenRowset and ICommandText), read datas and close rowset
3. power off
4. power on
5. try step 2 with another table (failed on openrowset with error 0x80004005) or try table A (sometimes working because of cached memory, sometims failed on Read Datas).
6. being stuck ;-)
Our work-around was, in case we loose our connection (identified by error 0x80004005 on openrowset), we close it and re-open database... ugly for sure, but working.
What I'm looking now is to use some kind of "detection method" like what people in .Net develoment are using "if ConnectionState.Open <> ...) for reopening my database only on demand...
Thanks in advance for any hints,
Fabien.
Hi,
I am not comfortable with DTS 2000 but I need to execute a encapsulated DTS 2000 package from a SSIS package. The real problem is when I need to pass SSIS variables to DTS 2000 package. The DTS 2000 package have 3 global variables that I can identify on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - Inner Variables ". I believe the SSIS variables must be mapped on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - OuterVariables ". How can I associate the SSIS variables(OuterVariables ) to "Inner Variables"? How can I do it? Much Thanks.

Hi,
I would like to design a SSIS package, which have couple of variables. It loads a xls file specified in a variable [varExcelFileFullPath] .
I will run it by commands: exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL ....' (pls see an example below).
It seems it does not get the values passed in for those variables. I deployed the package to a sql server.
are there any grammar errors here? I copied it from dtexecui. It worked inside Dtexecui not in dos command.
exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL "LoadExcelDB" /SERVER test /USER *** /PASSWORD ****
/MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW

/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelWorkbookName].Value;"Sheet1$"

I have created a simple package that uses a sql command to pull data from an oracle database and inserts the data into a sql 2005 table. Some of the data fields that i am pulling from contain two digits after the decimal point, however this data is lost when it gets into sql. I have even tried putting the data into a flat file, and still the data is lost.
In the package I have a ole db source connection which is the oracle database and when i do the preview i see all the data I need. I am very confused and tried a number of things to get the data into sql, but none work. Any ideas would be very helpful.
thanks
Using MSDE and OSQL
I begin with:
C:OSQL -D VID -i C:accepted.sql -o C:Resultsaccepted.txt -n -w500 -Usa
That gives me data such as this:
363 Cynthia KY 36
542 Charlene NC 3
594 Amanda NJ 9
592 Robert NJ 54
Then this command to create a table
CREATE TABLE accepted
(
Customer_idnvarchar(50)NULL,
Cust_Namenvarchar(50)NULL,
Cust_Statenvarchar(50)NULL,
Cust_Countnvarchar(50)NULL
)
GO
I've created this BCP format file:
8.0
4
1 SQLCHAR 0 50 "/t" 1 Customer_id SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
2 SQLCHAR 0 50 "/t" 2 Cust_Name SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
3 SQLCHAR 0 50 "/t" 3 Cust_State SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
4 SQLCHAR 0 50 "/r/n"4 Cust_Count SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
Table is created. I can SELECT * FROM accepted and see my column names.
Then I try to BCP into the table using:
C:>BCP sales..east in C:Resultsaccepted.txt -t -f C:cpformataccepted.fmt -Usa -Ppwd
I get this error:
Starting copy...
SQLState = 22001, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]String data, right truncation
SQLState = 22001, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]String data, right truncation
and so on......
In the .fmt file I've tried "", " ", " " and everthing I could think of as a delimiter. Still no luck. I've tried almost every switch available to both OSQL and BCP.
The data I am trying to BCP is a SQL result so I don't think any special delimiters are placed. I've tried not using the .fmt file and using the prompts but still no luck. Data is CAST in the query and doesn't excede 45 characters.
Hope I've explained my problem well enough.

I am just learning SQL Server and I am stuck with a few things. I was wondering if you can define input masks for columns in the database in SQL Server. I have used this feature many times in Access and on the front end in Oracle Forms. Is there such a thing in SQL Server?? Is it just called something different.....? I will be trying to format telephone numbers and dates. Thank you for you time.
