Configuration For Configuration Package? Is This Possible?

Mar 6, 2006

Hi Guys,

Here's the current scenario:

I am creating a windows application to manage my ssis packages.

My SSIS packages use package configurations, and by default connect to the "SSIS Configurations" table in sql server.

However, I want it to connect to a view instead of this table, so i create a view "vwSSIS_Configurations" and point the package configuration to use the view in sql server.

The application SHOULD be capable of altering the package configuration's configuration and switch its connection between the default "ssis configurations" table, and the view.

Is this possible? I cannot think of a way which I can have my application switch the package configuration's connection.

Thanks,
kervy

Package Configuration Wizard:-SQL Configurations Configuration Filter Not Working

May 23, 2006

Hi --I was wondering if this is a bug when I add new data in my table SSIS Confiurations and give wizard a new Configuration filter the package configuration wizard can not see the new values --the old values from the previous configuration are still showing---is there any known workaround or forced refresh I can do

SQL Configuration Manager And SQL Server Surface Area Configuration Tools

May 2, 2007

I have just finished installing SQL 2005 Ent Edition on Win 2000 Adv Server, SQL2005 SP2, and SP2 Hotfix KB934458.

Configuration Manager - Which Configuration Type To Chose ?

Jan 14, 2006

It seems to me, that the best way is to have one Environment Varible containing the name of the SQL Server, so that you can look up the configuration in the SSIS Configuration Table when you run the package.

Is this the preferable way of doing it ? I would like to hear some positive/negative comment of why chosing a configuration type instead of another.

It seems to me that putting all of the configuration in the Environment variable is harder work but most secure (server breakdown vs table corruption/database error...)

Let's have some comments

Passing The Xml Configuration File To The Package As An Input Parameter While Executing The Package

Feb 2, 2007

Hi,

I am planning to develop a single package that will download files from ftp server, move the files to internal file server and upload it in the database. But I want to run this package for multiple ftp file providers. For each provider the ftp server might be different and the transformation to upload the files into a database table might be different.

So can I create a single package and then multiple configuration files (xml), which will contain the details fo the ftp file providers and then pass the xml file as a parameter while executing the package. The reason being that the timings of fetching the files is different for each ftp file provider and hence cannot be combined into one.

Is this possible?

Thanks for your help.

Report With SSIS Package Having Indirect Package Configuration Setup

Sep 10, 2007

Deployed Report having SSIS package as source do not work when Indirect Package configuration is used in ETL package. It seems ETL package when called/executed from Report manager does not recognize environment variable to pick up the dtsconfig file.

The Report works when Direct package configuration is used to same dtsconfig file.

What could be the reason? Any solution for this? This will cause our build/deployment to QA and Prod very difficult.

Configure A Child Package To Use The Configuration File Of A Parent Package?

Sep 14, 2006

Hi guys,

Here's the deal. I have a child package, (say, pack01.dtsx), which uses a dtsconfig file for its connection string, which can be called from other packages, but which also can be called by itself.

However I also have another package (say, pack02.dtsx) which uses the same dtsconfig file for its connection string. It calls on pack01.dtsx.

When I use DTEXECUI and run pack01.dtsx, specifying the proper .dtsconfig file, it goes well. But when I try and run pack02.dtsx, an error occurs saying pack01.dtsx connection cannot be established.

How do I pass the connectionstring being used by pack02 to pack01, without having to remove the configuration file setting of pack01? Can a Parent Package configuration and a configuration file try and map to the same property?

Hope someone could help. Thanks.

Configuration Package

Aug 8, 2007

I have created a package configuration to read the connectionstring for the oledb connection manager.

Saved the file as Environment.dtsConfig in the same directory as the other packages.

Do the packages refer to the configuration file automatically?

Does it make a difference if I use the dtexec to start the ssis packages since there is now a configuration file?

Thanks

Package Configuration

Apr 5, 2006

Hello,

I'm developing some packages in SSIS and I need to implement a configuration file to load the server's connections and other parameters, so I can use this same connection for all packages.

Have anyone a step by step to perform this configuration ?

I exported a Connection Manager to a .dtsConfig file, but I don't know how to use this config file.

Any help is welcome !

Thanks,

Package Configuration

Oct 3, 2006

Here is the scenario we are
trying to use; (it a bit long winded please bare with me)

There are 2 Packages Parent
and Child. Both have 2 Connection Managers (��Configuration�? & ��Data Connection�?).
The ��Data Connection�? has an invalid connection set to start with this is so
that we can deploy this to multiple places and use a SQL table to hold the
configuration.

At runtime ��Configuration�? is
set to a valid SQL2005 database connection via the command line or in BI but ��Data
Connection�? is left invalid.

The Package Configuration point
to an SQL server using ��Configuration�? this has the connection string for the ��Data
Connection�? Connection Manager (a valid connection string). The package errors
with can not acquire connection.

The first task is to put the
Connection string of the Connection manager ��Configuration�? in to a variable.
Then the child package is called.

The Child package has the same
2 connections ��Configuration�? & ��Data Connection�? both are Invalid at this
time.

1) We use the Package
Configuration to populate a variable from the parent package which holds the ��Configuration�?
connection string.

2) We use a Package
Configuration to populate then Configuration�? connection from the parent
package which holds the ��Configuration�? connection.

3) We use a Package
Configuration to populate the ��Data Connection�? Connection Manager using the ��Configuration�?
connection. Which should be Set via step 2 here.

The First task on the child
package has a bit of script to check all the connection manager return a valid
connection to make sure database are up and running before connection. This
fails at the moment return in an error.

We want to use the same code
in multiple environments and as such don��t want to make code changes that are really
only environment changes.

IE connection string to
servers. I can��t seem to see anything saying we are doping anything wrong but if
the connections are all set to a valid connection before running this seems to
work. When invalid connection are used this seems to fall over.

Does it matter if the configuration is by xml,sql server,parent package variable,environment variable etc.

I use xml configuration which i kind of feel easy as i can change the connection directly by typing.Not used with others much..

Is there any security issue here .

SQL Configuration Package - C# App

Hi all,

Hopefully a simple question. In my c# application i can call ImportConfigurationFile(<str>) to import an xml configuration file. How do i go about importing configuration settings from a SQL configuration package? I have created this but see no way to load it. I'd prefer to use the config file created in the SQL database.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Many thanks,

Package Configuration

Oct 17, 2006

Hi all of us,

I'm looking any .dtsconfig file as sample for my first package configuration. I've got ssis packages which might be updated on development and then moved to production. First of all, I'd like dynamically change the connections but I don't know exactly how to do that. I'm taking a look on the wizard but when I choose a Sql Server request me a table.

Any sample or link for that would be welcomed!

TIA

Package Configuration - XML

Aug 25, 2006

Type:
Configuration File

New configuration file will be created.

File name:
C:Test.dtsconfig

Properties:
Package.Connections[Flat File Connection Manager].Properties[ConnectionString]

------------------------------------

So lets say, I modify the connectionstring for the Flat File connection manager by editing the xml file. Next time, I run the package, it does not grab the new value. Am I misunderstanding the concept of Package Configuration?

Package Configuration

Mar 14, 2007

Hi All,

I have couple of properties in my package Configuration

(1) Lets me know the Folder path - where I have file processing

(2) Connection String

When working in the Development machine, I am able to play around these values and test the application. I have tried both XML Configuration and SQL Server Configuration

But during deployment in the Test Server, the values in the Configuration are not getting reflected automatically and takes the values assigned during deployment

I tried importing the XML file and it works. But the values are not persistant.After running the package, the value gets resetted to the old value. Every time I run my package, I am reassingning my package variables.

Be it XML Configuration File or SQL Server, I would like to have the variables pulled out from the Configuration I am setting during the deployment. the values should be persistant and should refer the updated values.

Any help will be highly appreciated...thanks

SSIS Package Configuration

Apr 12, 2007

Hi, I'm facing a problem that I'm trying to solve. I report it in the following hoping somone can help me!

the context:

- I have a solution containing almost 20 packages
- I have a main package containing the sequences (Sequence Container) calling all others packages (Execute Package Task)
- every package has the connections to its own DBsource ; so the package X has the its own connections to DBsourceA and DBsourceB, the package Y has the its own connections to DBsourceB, DBsourceC, DBsourceD and the destination DB is unique for all the packages.

My problem is:
I have the necessity to define in the best way a config (one for all the dtsx, possibly) that allow me to manage easily the switch from the developing env to the deployment env, basically for the DB connections.

Which is the best way to do this and can anyone tell me the steps to follow?

Package Configuration Not Used After Deployment?

Mar 6, 2006

I've been searching for an answer to my question quite some time now and I've not been able to figure it out yet.

Situation:
- I've created a SSIS package containing a bulk insert task.
- I've added a package configuration containing the appropriate connection manager (i.e. dev, beta or live)
- CreateDeploymentUtility = true
- I've copied the deployment folder to our beta server and I started the manifest file to install the package to the sql 2005 server, after that I specified the config file location and changed the value so the approriate connection manager is used.
- When I execute the package from the sql server the package doesn't read the value from the xml config file, it uses the connection which was originally specified in the package, whereas when I run the package from my BIDS it is reading the value from the xml config file?

I can't seem to figure out why this is happening? am I missing something here?

Thnx.

SSIS Package Configuration.

Jan 3, 2007

I'm facing a little problem concerning package configuration that is using a SQL table.

I have 4 exactly the same Db's on the same SQL server, each with another name of course (Dbipa, DbIpB, DbIpC & DbIpD).

My developers created 4 exactly the same SSIS packages with 4 exactly the same jobs, each for his own DB only the connection settings are different.

Now I was trying to manage this with only one SSIS package by using an SSIS Package configuration table in each DB.

I thought it would be possible to start the package with the following parameter

/SET Package.Connections[SQL].InitialCatalog;DBIPA OR

/SET Package.Connections[SQL].InitialCatalog;DBIPB OR

/SET Package.Connections[SQL].InitialCatalog;DBIPC OR

/SET Package.Connections[SQL].InitialCatalog;DBIPD
But this doesn't work because before he changes the initial catalog in the connection named SQL, he already did the loading of the SSIS_Configuration table. So he point always to the same config table.
Is there a way to change the connection before the package configuration is being executed.

SSIS Package XML Configuration

Nov 9, 2006

1) We are doing data migration from SQL Server 2000 OLTP design to SQL Server 2005 OLAP design.

2) We have used SSIS packages and data flow tasks in which we mentioned connection strings for source and target containers.

3) We have a master execute package which contains series of execute packages in relational order.

4) When we execute this master package, we should be able to dynamically specify different source and connection strings for all packages.

5) In master execute package, we generate an XML configuration file using SSIS -> Package Configurations... using Connection Managers -> Particular connection

6) Now, we change connection string to point to another database after adding this new OLE DB connection in Connection Manager of each and every package.

7) When we save, build and execute master package it is still executing migration packages against the old database. Please let me know what I am missing.

Package Configuration In Dev Enviornment

Am I missing something, I can't find any way to specific the XML configuration file when I try and run my package in Debug of BIDS. My OLE DB connections are all failing due to a lack of a password. I can set the password in BIDS but its forgotten as soon as I start Debug or build the solution. The only way I seem to be able to run my package (now that I have enabled configurations) is to de-select the enable configurations box.

I've tried putting a configuartion file in the Deployment folder, the bin folder and the project root folder all to the same result.

Assign Configuration Package

Aug 15, 2007

There is a configuration file which is used to hold a connectionstring for the ssis packages.
Once the configuration file is created then is it necessary to go to each package and then package configuration to point the package to the configuration file?
It seems the packages do not automatically refer to the config file. Instead each time the config file is changed then all the packages have to be pointed to the config file one by one. i.e. going from Dev to live.
Am I right?
Thanks

Variables Vs. Package Configuration

Hi,

We can set the connection parameters using Variables as well as thru Package Configuration. My question is, if we use both to pass value for a connection string, which one will take precedence or in other words, which value will be used?

Advance thanks for your help.
