Error: 0xC002F304 At Bulk Insert Task, Bulk Insert Task: An Error Occurred With The Following Error Message: Cannot Fetch A Row
Apr 8, 2008
I receive the following error message when I try to use the Bulk Insert Task to load BCP data into a table:
Error: 0xC002F304 at Bulk Insert Task, Bulk Insert Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.The bulk load failed. The column is too long in the data file for row 1, column 4. Verify that the field terminator and row terminator are specified correctly.Bulk load data conversion error (overflow) for row 1, column 1 (rowno).".
Task failed: Bulk Insert Task
In SSMS I am able to issue the following command and the data loads into a TableName table with no error messages:
BULK INSERT TableName
FROM 'C:DataDbTableName.bcp'
WITH (DATAFILETYPE='widenative');
What configuration is required for the Bulk Insert Task in SSIS to make the data load? BTW - the TableName.bcp file is bulk copy file as bcp widenative data type. The properties of the Bulk Insert Task are the following:
DataFileType: DTSBulkInsert_DataFileType_WideNative
RowTerminator: {CR}{LF}
Any help getting the bcp file to load would be appreciated. Let me know if you require any other information, thanks for all your help.

I'm trying to use Bulk insert for the first time and getting the following error. I think it might have something to do with my Format File and from the error msg there's a conversion error for the first column. In my database the Field is nvarchar(6) so my best guess is to use SQLNChar for the first column. I've checked the end of each line is CR LF therefore the is correct for line 7 right?
Msg 4863, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Bulk load data conversion error (truncation) for row 1, column 1 (ASXCode). Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error. Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".

I have an File System Task that copies a file from one directory ot another. When I hard code the target directory (c:dirfile.txt) it works fine. When I change it to a virtual directory (\serverdirfile.txt) I get a security error:
[File System Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Access to the path '\gracehbtest oS2TMM_Live_Title_000002.xml' is denied.".
I'm trying to use an XML Task to do a simple XSLT operation, but it fails with this error message:
[XML Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "There are multiple root elements. Line 5, position 2.".
The source XML file validates fine and I've successfully used it as the XML Source in a data flow task to load some SQL Server tables. It has very few line breaks, so the first 5 lines are pretty long: almost 4000 characters, including 34 start-tags, 19 end-tags, and 2 empty element tags. Here's the very beginning of it:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <ESDU releaselevel="2006-02" createdate="26 May 2006"><package id="1" title="_standard" shorttitle="_standard" filename="pk_stan" supplementdate="01/05/2005" supplementlevel="1"><abstract><![CDATA[This package contains the standard ESDU Series.]]></abstract>
There is only 1 ESDU root element and only 1 package element.
Of course, the XSLT stylesheet is also an XML document in its own right. I specify it directly in the XML Task:
I'm just learning SSIS and I've hit my first bump. I am doing a bulk import from a tab delimited text file to an empty sql table that has a Idendity column defined. How do I tell the bulk insert task to skip that column when inserting from the text file. If I remove the identity column it imports the data fine, but I want to create the indentity column in the table too.
I cannot execute a package by using Execute Package task. I supplied sa credentials to connection manager, and it shows the list of Packages on SQL Server but when running the task it says
Error 0xC0202009 while preparing to load the package. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x%1!8.8X!.
I am using the Bulk Insert task object in DTS and I am using a format file as well to import data from a text file. I was able to insert data into my SQL table fine when I did not have a identity column defined in my table; however, I added a identity field and now the bulk insert will not work. Anyone had a similiar problem?
The error msg box that pops up says:
The statement has been terminated. string or binary data would be truncated.
I want to check sorted data option for bulk insert task on DTS Package. I want to sort data on 1st column. How can I put order by clause on sorted data option? I put ORDER (SSNo) but I am getting error. Thanks ss
I am doing heavy Bulk insert task to one Database.When i checked the Activity Monitor I saw it was suspended and Wait type:PAGEIOLATCH_EX So it stopped itself.Do any experts have good idea about what is going on?
For ex: In SQL Server 2005 when we create table with 3 columns which has allow nulls option is disabled. Then we try to insert record with blank to any one of the column SQL server throws error, coz column name is NOT Null without inserting data it won't saves the record. When we try to import a csv data file has 3 columns & has null data. If we use BULK INSERT TASK option, it easily inserts the data, without throwing error.
My question is how can we restrict null data without inserting it into the table using BULK INSERT TASK using SQL Server 2005.
I am using the Bulk Insert Task to bulk copy data from a flat file to a SQL Server 2005 table. The flat file contains pipe ( | ) delimited columns and several thousand records which are {CR}{LF} delimited. The file also contains a header record and trailer record, which contain several words but also contains a ( | ) symbol among those words.
E.g.:
HEDR | yadi yadi yada500 | Data Data | More Data | 600460 | Datum | More More | 705550 | Data | Data | 603FOOTR | yadi yadi yada
I need to ignore the header and trailer records and just pickup the proper records. But even though I manually set the First Row property to 2 and the Last Row property to 4, It does not pickup the first true record i.e. the record which begins with 500, and if I set the First Row to 1, it throws me an error citing 'truncation error' or similar. I think it is taking the first record (i.e. header row along with the first row as one, and since there are now more pipes ( | ) the error is thrown)
I've tried setting different values for these properties but to no avail... Any help will be deeply appreciated...
I'm doing a bulk insert from a text file to sql server 7 I'm getting an error:
Server: Msg 4867, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Bulk insert data conversion error (overflow) for row 1, column 169 (LOT_WIDTH). Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 OLE DB provider 'STREAM' reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error. The statement has been terminated.
Now my lot-width field coming in is defined as a numeric 9(5). My table is defined as an INT.
I am attempting to bulk insert a comma delimited text file with double quotes as the text qualifier but I keep getting an error message(EOF) on the bulk insert.
I think the problem lies in my format file (see below)
Please take a look and let me know what I am missing?
Thanks, Matt

I do read a few article saying that after apply SP2 and hotfixes, this error should be fix, but unfortunately, it is not in my case, what should i do to fix it?
This is my script: - BULK INSERT wng01_work..nw_business_person FROM 'g:SQLFTPCDIS_Extractew_worker.dat' WITH ( MAXERRORS = 1, FORMATFILE ='g:sqlftpcdis_extractew_work.fmt' )
When I try to execute the code, I get the following error, on this line: select @cmd = @cmd + ' with (Fieldterminator = ',')'
Msg 141, Level 15, State 1, Procedure Imp_Header_PO_sp, Line 46
A SELECT statement that assigns a value to a variable must not be combined with data-retrieval operations.
I've tried to find a fix for this error, but it seams to only relate to a select statement and not a Bulk Insert. Can someone please help me figure out how to fix this error?
Simple test project. Created Flat File connection, database connection (both local), and Bulk Insert Task. When running the package I get the following error:
[Bulk Insert Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.Bulk load: An unexpected end of file was encountered in the data file.".
I've tried different settings for the Flat File config, and the database connection, but still get the error. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Really Don't understand this and have run out of hair to pull out.
DTS package whihc has a Bulk Insert Task. The task is populated with its source filename dynamically. It has a format file which is stored locally to the box its running on.
The output file is from a unix box pipe delimited. Great dandy. All works a treat as long as I treat everything as either an INT or CHAR. But I have a couple of columns that are DATES in the format 13/02/2004.
I want these inserted into smalldatetime columns. Will settle for datetime columns though.
I get an error on every row Bulk Insert data conversion error (type mismatch) for Row X Column 11 (PostingDate) which happens to be the first date column.
Tried loading it as CHAR, SQLDATETIME and SQLDATETIM4 in the format file all to no avail. TRied it with columns in the dest table as DATETIME and SMALLDATETIME
I use a "Bulk Insert Task" inside of a "ForEach Container" and set the ConnectionString-Property of the "FlatFile-ConnectionManager" with an expression, pulling from a variable. The packages works fine, but I get an Error-Message in the Output-Window:
Fehler: 0xC001401E bei Package, Verbindungs-Manager 'FlatFile': Der in der Verbindung angegebene Dateiname 'c:old.txt' war ungültig.
Translation:
Error: 0xC001401E at Package, Connection-Manager 'FlatFile': Cannot open the file 'c:old.txt'. (Sorry, in this office is the no english version available).
'C:old.txt' is the initial value of the variable. The new value is 'C:ew.txt' and I can see the new value in the Debugger or in a Scripttask.
Before the execution of the "Bulk Insert Task" starts, SSIS makes a validation. I have tried to stop the validation on setting the property "DelayValidation" = True (Package,ForEach-Container,BulkInsert-Task,FlatFile-ConnectionManager), but it is not possible to stop the validation and the error-message. After printing the error-message, the variable is evaluated and the package works fine. After the first loop, there is no more error-message.
The error-message is a problem, because the operators look at the error-output.
As a workaround I can set the property in a Scriptatsk. Is there another solution????
I would like to get the rowcount from a bulk insert task to validate that all the data is being inserted correctly. So far the only way that I can see this being done is through a trigger on the target tables. I would like to have this information inside the DTS package. Can anyone help me?
I have a confusion with Bulk Insert task for several days. Here is what Books Online say, which i totally understand--- "The source file that the Bulk Insert task loads can be on the same server as the SQL Server database into which data is inserted, or on a remote server. If the file is on a remote server, you must specify the file name using the Universal Naming Convention (UNC) name in the path."
Now, If my Bulk Insert task (within a package) is on one server, say ETL ( so when i run the package, it will run from ETL server); but, My destination table where data will be inserted, is in another server, say PROD. So, My OLEDB connection will be pointing to a remote server .Now, If my text file is on ETL server, do i have to give UNC path?..Or If i have text file on the same server as my destination ( here PROD) do i Have to Give UNC naming?. I found in several places that Bulk insert Task runs on that server where its connections points to. My scnerio: I have multiple SSIS packages. Now These packages will be on ETL server, but all the databases will be hosted on PROD server. Now for my Bulk Insert , I asked them to keep all flat file on ETL server(where packages will be ). Looks like this will give me a problem later, since all my Destination will be on PROD server, during bulk insert , sql server will go and look for those files on PROD server rather than ETL server? Or i AM confused here?...... Say package.dtsx is On SER1which useses bulk insert tasks.. My OLEDB connection is SERV2 database B and Table T Now my flat file connection is D:myfilefile.txt
Now when i run this task where does these txt file will be pulled from. Does it pulls from local server (SER1) or does it goes to SERV2 looking for txt file.
I tried several combinations of moving files to different servers, yet i have no conclusions.
with my ssis-package i have to read several flatfiles. this files are stored in different folders on a unix machine. in my loop-task i have first a script, that checks whether the file exists. it does, so i set the path to a variable. in the connection-manager for the flat-file i have set source for the file to that variable. the bulk-insert-task starts, read the file and everithing is cool. but, sometimes, the package fails with this message:
[Bulk Insert Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot bulk load because the file "\Owpu0kas 0 0 5 eceivedw000005.090" could not be opened. Operating system error code 53(error not found)."
i stop the degugging-mode, restart debuging and what happens? it runs ... maybe for the next one, two or three files and the error comes again, but never on the same file. i'm going crazy, what can i do?
Help! I am importing a large comma delimited text file into an existing table useing the BULK INSERT command. The table is 4 colums (char16, char16, varchar50, char1). The first 100 or so lines go in without an error. then, I recieve an error stateing that an entry is too long for the field in the database, and kicks me out. The entry is 50 characters, which is allowed. Any ideas why this would happen?
bulk insert DB_Kash.dbo.tb_category from 'C:cpdataSUPPLIER_5305OUTPUTTb_Category.txt' with (formatfile = 'C:b_category.txt')
This works on one sql server and the same code does not work on another server.I have taken care to see that the path is appropriate. Are there any server settings involved? The table structure is the same in both cases and the select into nulk copy option has been selected. The table has full text indexing set on it but I don't think that this would make any difference. The only error it gives is "ILE DB Stream reported an error.The stream does not provide any expalanation regarding this error." Something like this.
Infact the same format file and datafile work fine when I am doing BCP. I have tried with select into bulk copy option on and off too. Any info on this is greatly appreciated.
Hi, Can someone help me out with capturing the bulk insert error.I have a job which calls a procedure in which I used the bulk insert command .If the bulk insert is failing due to some reason as wrong delimitor,wrong path etc then the job fails.I need to track that error and see that the job doesnt stop and goes onto the next cursor record. Thanks, Nodbek
