File Watcher Task

Apr 30, 2008

Installed File watcher task, then created a new SSIS package by adding the file watcher task in the control flow, below are my setting's inside the file watcher task editor:
2. Options
Filter - *.*
Find Existing Files - True
Timeout warning - False
3. Path
Path input type: Direct imput
Path - \server1Sourcefolder
Include subdirectories - False
Actually my understanding about this task is:
This file watcher task will constantly check for the file and then will execute the SSIS package.
If my understanding is correct, then where do we specify the name of the SSIS package?? And also do we need this SSIS package which has the File watcher task to run every 5 minutes or so, so that it can keep checking for the file existence.
Please help, thanks!!

File System Watcher

Feb 28, 2007

Hello,

I have to make a application using filesystemwatcher which watches the file on the remote server. If that file is changed then I have to fetch that file from ftp location to the server. I have made the SSIS job to fetch the file but not able to set a file system watcher on remote server that watches the file. If the file is changed then I need to insert a row in the SQL server database and then fetch the file.

I have made the application. the code is below:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

// Create a new FileSystemWatcher and set its properties

FileSystemWatcher watcher = new FileSystemWatcher();





watcher.Path = "C:\";

watcher.IncludeSubdirectories = true;

/* Watch for changes in LastAccess and LastWrite times, and the renaming of files or directories.*/

watcher.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.FileName | NotifyFilters.Attributes | NotifyFilters.LastAccess | NotifyFilters.LastWrite | NotifyFilters.Security | NotifyFilters.Size;

//watcher.WaitForChanged(WatcherChangeTypes.All );

// Add event handlers.

watcher.Changed += new FileSystemEventHandler(OnChanged);

watcher.Created += new FileSystemEventHandler(OnCreated);

watcher.Deleted += new FileSystemEventHandler(OnChanged);

watcher.Renamed += new RenamedEventHandler(OnRenamed);

watcher.EnableRaisingEvents = true;

}

public static void OnChanged(object source, FileSystemEventArgs e)

{

MessageBox.Show(e.FullPath + e.ChangeType.ToString("G") + "" );

}

public static void OnCreated(object source, FileSystemEventArgs e)

{

MessageBox.Show(e.FullPath + e.ChangeType + "");

}

public static void OnRenamed(Object source, RenamedEventArgs e)

{

MessageBox.Show(e.OldFullPath + e.FullPath + "" + e.OldName);

}

Now how can I give the ftp details such as IP address, User name and password in the above code.

 

Regards,
Deepesh Verma

Directory Watcher Path

Oct 26, 2007

I'm trying to use a WMI Event Watcher Task as a directory watcher. I know it is available from Konesans at http://www.sqlis.com/23.aspx but they don't feel obliged to make this open source yet. I definitely appreciate the contribution of the binary to the community.

I'm very interested in understanding how the event handler gets the path of the file that caused the event. I added a Script Task to the Event Handler tab and it fires as expected when I create a new file in the directory. I can retrieve the value of the SourceName which is just the name of my Event Watcher Task. I can't find documentation on an object model that is exposed through SSIS that would reveal the name or path of the file, although it's clear this information is available in direct WMI queries from code or a WSH script.

My only guess is that you need to do a workaround in Script (or a custom module) by querying the directory for the most recent file (or list of files compared to a list of processed files) rather than a synchronous feed of the path directly into the SSIS event handler. Ideally, you'd like to get one event per new file created, although this might not be deterministic with the way the OS fires these events and SSIS responds to them. So at the end of the day, querying the directory for recently created files may be the only reliable way of getting the (list of) new files.

I know that this can take hours and hours to figure out since you really need to understand how WMI interacts with SSIS but I would be indebted if you can shed some light on this for me and the community.


Thanks,
Norm

WMI Event Watcher - Flaky Service

Jan 19, 2007

Hi,

I have implemented a WMI Event Watcher in my SSIS package which polls a directory at 5 second intervals for the presence of files.

I have noticed that at times this file watcher service doesn't seem to function. Yet if I stop and start the package it usually works again.

Everything is running locally, including the polled folder.

Has anyone experienced similiar issues, or may know the cause/fix of this problem?

Thanks.

Best Practice For WMI Event Watcher Task

Jul 10, 2007

I want to watch a directory 24 hours a day to launch SSIS packages as files arrive. There are several options I have found to accomplish this:

Use the WMI Event Watcher task in SSIS to launch the packages as files arrive. Leave the package with the WMI Event Watcher task running all day long everyday
Create a Windows service that uses WMI to detect file arrival and launch packages
Schedule SQL Server Agent to run the package when a WMI event is raised

What is the best practice? Are there better approaches that I have not listed?

WMI Event Watcher Is Not Working Properly

May 30, 2006

Hi,

I have an SSIS Package to get the data from an Excel Source. For that I am using WMI Event Watcher to find when the file drops into a specific folder. It is working fine when I check any folders in the local machine.

We have a separate WebServer and Database Server for our application. The application is deployed in the Web server and the SSIS package is deployed in the Database server.

Since the files are dropped through application, it is dropped in the Webserver. I have mapped that drive in my Database Server and I am trying to link that folder in the SSIS package, but the event is not firing.

Please provide me some solution for this and revert for any clarifications.

Thanks & Regards,
Prakash Srinivasan

WMI Watcher -wbemess.log - HPQ_VT_STATUS_VIRUS_LIKE_ACTIVITY_HAS_STOPPED And HPQ_VT_STATUS_VIRUS_LIKE_ACTIVITY_IS_OCCURRING

Nov 30, 2006

I am trying to watch for new files being created in a directory on a  SQL server, using a WMI watcher. But I am getting a strange error in wbemess.log. The package runs, but does not detect files in the directory. There is no known anti virus software being run....

(Thu Nov 30 18:51:19 2006.799112375) : Unable to activate event filter with invalid class name 'HPQ_VT_STATUS_VIRUS_LIKE_ACTIVITY_IS_OCCURRING' (error 80041002).  The filter is not active
(Thu Nov 30 18:51:19 2006.799112375) : Unable to activate event filter with invalid class name 'HPQ_VT_STATUS_VIRUS_LIKE_ACTIVITY_HAS_STOPPED' (error 80041002).  The filter is not active


 The expression I am using is correct, because I get a parsing error and the package fails to run if the correct number of backslashes are not in the right place. Below are two that I have tried.SELECT * FROM __InstanceCreationEvent WITHIN 10 WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'CIM_DataFile' AND TargetInstance.Drive='C:' AND TargetInstance.Path='\\work\\ssis\'
SELECT * FROM __InstanceCreationEvent WITHIN 10 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "CIM_DirectoryContainsFile" and TargetInstance.GroupComponent= "Win32_Directory.Name="c:\\work\\ssis"" 

 Anyone seen this before or have any useful suggestions? The server is an HP Proliant, could that be linked to the HPQ_?

WMI Event Watcher - Pointing Directly To A Machine Name

Nov 27, 2006

Hi,

I am using a WMI Event Watcher task to watch for files dropped into a directory over a network drive.

It seems to work fine when it is pointed to a physical drive name, but not when I use a machine name.

I.e.

This works -
SELECT * FROM __InstanceCreationEvent WITHIN 10 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "CIM_DirectoryContainsFile" and TargetInstance.GroupComponent= "Win32_Directory.Name="C:\\temp\\folder1\\folder2\folder3""

This fails -
SELECT * FROM __InstanceCreationEvent WITHIN 10 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "CIM_DirectoryContainsFile" and TargetInstance.GroupComponent= "Win32_Directory.Name=\\\\machineName\\folder1\\folder2\\folder3"

The failing code does not throw any errors (i.e. SSIS thinks the WQL syntax is correct), but it doesn't pick up any dropped files.

Am I doing something incorrect with the syntax, or must I use a physically mapped drive letter?

Thanks
H

SSIS File Watcher Multi-Threaded Task?

Jan 28, 2007

Hi All,

I have a problem in which I want the run an SSIS based on a file being dropped in a directory. I've tried the WMI event watcher as well as the File Task Watcher component. The problem that I'm seeing is that if the process is currently processing in the pipeline while another file dropped, the newly dropped file doesn't get picked up. Is there a way to create a FileWatcher Task in SSIS which will spawn a SSIS job and return immediately for watching files?

WMI File Watcher In Control Flow Issues Quota Violation Error

May 22, 2008

My SSIS control flow includes a standard "textbook" WMI Event Watcher Task that monitors a folder for incoming files. Generally it works fine, but now I regularly see the error message:

"Watching for the Wql Query caused the following system exception: "Quota Violation." Check the query for errors or WMI connection for access rights/permissions"


I do not see any indication of trouble in the event logs. The SSIS log simply states that it failed.

Is there any magic about WMI Event Watcher?

When I restart, it runs fine for hours.

SQL05 is 9.0.3054 on W2003 with all microsoft updates applied. It is basically a bare machine with SQL Server, SSIS running and a service that kicks in occasionally.

Thanks for reading!

Integration Services :: SSIS WMI Event Watcher Check For New Folder In Existing Folder

Jul 2, 2015

I know a WMI event watcher can be used to watch forĀ a new file being added to a folder. However, I need to check for new folders being added to an existing folder. I haven't been able to find a post on doing this. Is there a way in WQL to check for a new folder being added instead of a new file? I've used SQL for years, but am new to SSIS.

File Watcher Task Doesnt Wait For The Entire File To Be Completely Finish Before It Completes

Jul 7, 2006

Hey there

Ive built an SSIS package which generates a file from a legacy system and then downloads the file into a designated folder on the server. I need the file watcher task to wait for a the file to completely finish loading before it says it is complete. Currently, as soon as the file is created, the WMI step finishes.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Kind Regards

David

WMI Event Watcher Task Continual Firing Event When Not Triggered

Apr 8, 2008

I have been testing with the WMI Event Watcher Task, so that I can identify a change to a file.
The WQL is thus:

SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent within 30
WHERE targetinstance isa 'CIM_DataFile'
AND targetinstance.name = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Backup\AdventureWorks.bak'

This polls every 30 secs and in the SSIS Event (ActionAtEvent in the WMI Task is set to fire the SSIS Event) I have a simple script task that runs a message box).

My understanding is that the event polls every 30 s and if there is a change on the AdventureWorks.bak file then the event is triggered and the script task will run producing the message.
However, when I run the package the message is occurring every 30s, meaning the event is continually firing even though there has been NO change to the AdventureWorks.bak file.

Am I correct in my understanding of how this should work and if so why is the event firing when it should not ?

File Watcher Task (Konessans) Vs For Each Loop Task

Dec 6, 2007



HI, I need to trigger some packages upon existance of specific files in a particular directory. Sound lkike the file watcher task (from SQLIS) would do the job but I am wondering what is the difference of using this tool instead of a for each loop container. I mean, If a file exists in a directory, the for each loop container will detect it. Since the file watcher is not a service, the package containing it needs to ne scheduled on a regular basis for the filewatcher to detect the file, right? So, a for each loop container would do the job? So, waht wouldbe the advantage of using the file watcher task?

Thank you,
Ccote
