Datafile SSIS Transform XML - Help

May 19, 2007

Hi,



I want to insert the contents of a data file into a SQL Server table with XML datatype column using SSIS. I am fairly new to SSIS and script tasks.

Example:

Salary Data file:

EmpID, Name, Salary



100, John, 100000

200, Scott, 200000



Database Table:

create table xmlTable (id int identity(1,1), xmlColumn XML)



The contents of the file needs to be written to xmlTable. For each row in the Salary Data file there will be a corresponding row in the xmlTable.



xmlTable (Result):



1, <EmpID 100...>

2,<EmpID 200...>



Any help with details is greatly appreciated.



Thanks,

Rob

Integration Services :: SSIS Cannot Open Datafile When Executed From Remote Host

Aug 19, 2015

I have seen several problems posted where an SSIS package writes a file successfully when executed manually, but fails when executed via SQL Agent job..I have the opposite problem. I'll try to lay it out succinctly: SSIS writes to a file on a shared folder, specified as HostAShare, for example. I created the share and gave full control to Everyone (out of frustration).I'm working from HostA via RDP, connected to the DB on DBHost via SSMS.If I kick off a SQL Agent job that executes the package, it works fine. (SQL job is running under SQL Server Agent Service Account).If I execute the job interactively (logged in to SSMS with Windows Auth), it fails with "Error: Cannot open the datafile "HostASharefilename.ext""We did find that if I RDP directly to the DBHost, I am able to execute manually.Also, if I try executing an xp_command shell command to write a file to the share, it works. (When RDP's into HostA with an SSMS connection to DBHost under my windows domain auth, as above.)The problem is the same when I RDP to any remote host.

SSIS SCript Transform Parallelism

Oct 26, 2007



Hi,

I need some urgent help on a conceptual question.

Requirement:
I have a simple package with one dataflow task. In that I need to read from a sql table and for every row in that table loop through n times and generate new output rows based on certain conditions (which are best evaluated in custom script as they are rather complex). Hence, if I have 100 rows in the table as my input, I may end up with 100*n rows as output.

My Design:
To implement this I have used an OLE DB Source which outputs to a Script Transform (ST). In the ST I intend to loop through in custom code and generate new rows using the .AddRow feature when I need new rows. This ST then feeds into another OLE DB Destination which writes the data to the table. Simple!
I am using the default buffer settings. All I have tweaked is the Synchronous... property on the script transform (otherwise I do not get to the Output0Buffer within the script!).

Problem:
I wish to do as much as possible in parallel. So I would expect the OLE DB Source to provide more than one row at a time to the script transform and that should process more than one input row simultaneously. It seems the script componenet is serializing input, so it seems to take one row at a time from the OLE DB source, loop through and process in the script transform).

AM I RIGHT IN THINKING THAT THE SCRIPT TRANSFORM IS EXECUTING THE INPUT IN A SEQUENTIAL MANNER?
CAN I PARALLELISE THIS?
If so, how?

Thanks,
Tirthankar

Inconsistent SSIS Data Transform Behavior

Jan 15, 2008



High all,

I have a very simple SSIS package that is moving data from a DB2 database to a Teradata box. I've run it around 10 times, twice it pushed data over, the balance of the time, it executes with no error, but moves nothing over. In the "incomplete" runs, a command line box pops up for half a second, then the package ends.

Does anyone have ideas as to why this behavior is occurring?

Thanks,

Mark

SQL 2012 :: SSIS Script As Transform Not Producing Output

Jan 30, 2015

I have an SSIS with several data flows I need to do some complex data evaluations so I have used a script as transform in two of the DFT's. If I run these separately everything works great and there are no problems what so ever. If I run them together I notices I was getting an error on the second one. I discovered that this seems to be some kind of namespace problem since both Scripts were using Input_0 buffer. So I changed the name of the second one and retested.

Well I no longer get the error and in fact it seems to run through the entire SSIS just fine. However when I look closer I notice that the second Script task just does not seem to do anything at all. The script task does a lot of evaluation of the incoming data and then does some calculations depending on the value in the service code. however when it runs through this in the second script task all of the define output rows are just empty.

I have gone through and made sure that all input and output buffers are unique names thinking this was a similar problem but no luck. I even changes all column and variable names to unique with no luck. Again If I run them separately everything work fine it is only when I run the entire package that this problem occurs.

SSIS Equivalent To DTS Transform Data Task Properties

May 3, 2007

I am trying to read in a flat file, transform the fields and store into a destination database.



In DTS, this works using Transform Data Task Properties. I define the columns and then have a VB script on the Transformations tab that changes any bad data.



Is there a way to do this in SSIS that I can define the column transformations and re-use my VB scripts?

Ho Do I Get The Details From A DTS Transform Data Task Into An SSIS Derived Column Transformation?

Mar 7, 2008

i have too many DTS packages to migrate to SSIS, and while examining a DTS package in BIDS (converted with the migration utility) i tried to edit the resulting migrated package, which opened the DTS interface with the two connection icons joined by the big fat arrow with a gear on it...not exactly what i had in mind, iow, it looks like SSIS on the outside, but its still DTS on the inside.
So I stripped out a series of components from a more complex package hoping that simplifying it would reveal the contents of old DTS Transformations tab at least partially set up in a Derived Column transformation.
Can i get there from here, or must i recreate every stinking definition in a derived column manually from the ground up?
thanks very much for your help

Integration Services :: SSIS Cache Transform Lookup With Multiple Indexes

Jan 16, 2013

I work in the healthcare area, and am handling the survey data ETL's.  There are around 8 different survey areas and based on information received from them for the visit they reference, I want to pull in more info from our invoicing database.  My idea is this:

1.)  Pull in the flat file to an ODBC staging table
2.)  Cache all invoice records that fall between the MIN(Date of Service) and MAX(Date of Service) from the staging table.
3.)  First lookup the information needed on patientID, providerID, date of service, and billing location.
4.)  For the surveys that didn't match on those 4 columns, try looking up based on patientID, date of service, and billing location (since I could be 99% sure this would still return the record I need).
5.)  For the remaining surveys, lookup based just on patientID and date of service.  These records will be flagged for manual review because clearly, if a patient has multiple appointments in the same day, this will be prone to error.

However, in trying to use only 3 of the columns in the lookup, I get the error saying basically that I need to utilize all 4. Is there a way around this, or is there an entirely different way I should be approaching this?  The reason I thought cache transform was the answer is because I will need to run a different package for each lookup, as the data and logic between each survey will vary, but the invoice data "pool" will stay the same regardless.

Behavior Of SSIS Lookup Transform On Full Cache Setting With Low Computer Memory

Aug 9, 2007



I would like to know what happens when a very large reference data set for a lookup transform with full caching enabled is getting loaded during package execution and the computer memory runs out or is very low.
Does SSIS
a) give an out of memory error of some sort
b) resort to a no caching or partial caching mode
c) maintain the full caching mode but will switch to using the paging file(virtual memory).

I think it will resort to using the page file in which case the benefits of in memory lookups are lost and performance would suffer. If I cannot upgrade the memory or shrink the reference set somehow, i should switch that lookup task to use partial caching or no caching with an indexed lookup table. Would this make sense?

Integration Services :: SSIS 2012 Lookup Transform Converts Date Field To String

Jul 30, 2015

We are using lookup transformation in SSIS 2012. The lookup transformation queries a table with two date columns. When we hover the mouse over the two columns in the 'columns' tab of the lookup transformation editor, the two columns show as DT_WSTR instead of DT_DBDATE. This causes the SSIS package to fail due to data type mismatch.A similar abandoned thread is available at: URL....

Moving Files (split From An Existing Thread-SSIS Equivalent To DTS Transform Data Task Properties)

May 7, 2007

Hi JayH (or anyone). Another week...a new set of problems. I obviously need to learn .net syntax, but because of project deadlines in converting from DTS to SSIS it is hard for me to stop and do that. So, if someone could help me some easy syntax, I would really appreciate it.



In DTS, there was a VBScript that copied a set of flat files from one directory to an archive directory after modifying the file name. In SSIS, the directory and archive directory will be specified in the config file. So, I need a .net script that retrieves a file, renames it and copies it to a different directory.

Linda



Here is the old VBScript Code:

Public Sub Main()

Option Explicit

Function Main()

Dim MovementDataDir

Dim MovementArchiveDataDir

Dim MovementDataFile

Dim MovementArchiveDataFile

Dim FileNameRoot

Dim FileNameExtension, DecimalLocation

Dim CurMonth, CurDay

Dim FileApplicationDate

Dim fso ' File System Object

Dim folder

Dim FileCollection

Dim MovementFile

'======================================================================

'Create text strings of today's date to be appended to the archived file.

FileApplicationDate = Now

CurMonth = Month(FileApplicationDate)

CurDay = Day(FileApplicationDate)

If Len(CurMonth) = 1 Then

CurMonth = "0" & CurMonth

End If

If Len(CurDay) = 1 Then

CurDay = "0" & CurDay

End If

FileApplicationDate = CurMonth & CurDay & Year(FileApplicationDate)

'=====================================================================

' Set the movement data directory from the global variable.

MovementDataDir = DTSGlobalVariables("gsMovementDataDir").Value

MovementArchiveDataDir = DTSGlobalVariables("gsMovementDataArchiveDir").Value

fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

folder = fso.GetFolder(MovementDataDir)

FileCollection = folder.Files

' Loop through all files in the data directory.

For Each MovementFile In FileCollection

' Get the full path name of the current data file.

MovementDataFile = MovementDataDir & "" & MovementFile.Name

' Get the full path name of the archive data file.

MovementArchiveDataFile = MovementArchiveDataDir & "" & MovementFile.Name

DecimalLocation = InStr(1, MovementArchiveDataFile, ".")

FileNameExtension = Mid(MovementArchiveDataFile, DecimalLocation, Len(MovementArchiveDataFile) - DecimalLocation + 1)

FileNameRoot = Mid(MovementArchiveDataFile, 1, DecimalLocation - 1)

MovementArchiveDataFile = FileNameRoot & "_" & FileApplicationDate & FileNameExtension

If (fso.FileExists(MovementDataFile)) Then

fso.CopyFile(MovementDataFile, MovementArchiveDataFile)

' If the archive file was coppied, then delete the old copy.

If (fso.FileExists(MovementArchiveDataFile)) Then

fso.DeleteFile(MovementDataFile)

End If

End If

Next

fso = Nothing

folder = Nothing

FileCollection = Nothing

Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success

How To Get Datafile Online Again?

May 23, 2007

Hi need to something like this:

"alter database modify file (name=<name>, ONLINE)",

but it isn't possible.



Here what I did:

alter database bdj add file (name ='bdjfg1', filename='d:db
djfg1.ndf' )
to filegroup bdjfg;


alter database bdj modify file (name='bdjfg1', OFFLINE);


alter database bdj modify file (name ='bdjfg1', filename='d:db
ewdestdjfg1.ndf' );
--Msg 5056, Level 16, State 4, Line 1
--Cannot add, remove, or modify a file in filegroup 'bdjfg' because
the filegroup is offline.


alter database bdj modify filegroup bdjfg READWRITE;
--Msg 5056, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
--Cannot add, remove, or modify a file in filegroup 'bdjfg' because
the filegroup is offline.



Yes, yes and should have read the cautions section saying:

"Use this option only when the file is corrupted and can be restored. A file set to OFFLINE can only
be set online by restoring the file from backup. For more information about restoring a single file,
see RESTORE (Transact-SQL)."



But I have not an backup of the datafile, but I have the datafile itself!

What can I do to get it online again, the old location could be fine, but it would be better on an new location (thats is the reason for all the trouble, the original drive has not much space left, so I wanted to move the datafile)



What can I do, HELP

Error - Cannot Open The Datafile

Jan 4, 2007

Hi there,

I have written a program that loads a package (SomePackage.dtsx) from the physical drive and executes that. The package does nothing but imports data from a csv file to the Sql server 2005. But I can see that the package is failing continuously. I meant the package.Execute() method is returning a DTSExecResult.Failure. I investigated the Package.Errors property that contains the error collection and found that there are two DTSError objects into the collection.

The first one€™s description says that

Cannot open the datafile "D:SOME.csv".

And the later one€™s is

component "SOURCE FLAT FILE COMPONENT" (1) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC020200E.

But the most interesting thing is if I execute the package through the Execute package Utility (double clicking onto the SomePackage.dtsx file) ships with Sql server 2005 then it executes fine and works as expected. I have checked the permission of the csv file and it has everyone€™s full access.

Can anyone help me on this?
I will appreciate all kind of suggestions.

Thanks
Moim

Dtsrun: Datafile Mapping Error

Jan 30, 2004

Hi need lots of help here.

I have a dts package scheduled to run hourly as job since recent November. (Win2000 server, MSSQL2000 standard)
Its been running fine, except last few days, SQL Agent shows it attempted to run it but fails
Checking the history for the job i got this error message each time:
================================================== ======
DTSRun: Executing... DTSRun OnStart: DTSStep_DTSDataPumpTask_2
DTSRun OnError: DTSStep_DTSDataPumpTask_2,

Provider Help file: DTSFFile.hlp Help context: 0 DTSRun

Process Exit Code 1. The step failed.
=================================================

The key information i think would be these few lines:
Error creating datafile mapping: The volume for a file has been externally altered so that the opened file is no longer valid.

I don't think its SQL Agent as its scheduling is running other jobs fine(backup)
The DTS package runs fine manually.
Such i suspect dtsrun.exe itself. But where do i go from here?

Thks.
