I have a SQL Task that calls a stored procedure and returns an output parameter. The task fails with error "Value does not fall within the expected range." The Stored Procedure is defined as follows: Create Procedure [dbo].[TestOutputParms] @InParm INT , @OutParm INT OUTPUT as Set @OutParm = @InParm + 5 The task uses an OLEDB connection and has a source type of Direct Input. The SQL Statement is Exec TestOutputParms 7, ? output The parameter mapping is: Variable Name Direction Data Type Parameter Name User::OutParm Output LONG @OutParm
I'm having a heckuva time with creating output parameters based on a query.
Here's what I'm doing. Every day, we copy rows from our mysql table to our sql server table. We only want to copy those rows that are new, so as to not have to recopy the entire table.
So I have a DataReader Source set to Ado.net/odbc provider that connects to the mysql db. The destination is an OLE connection to the local sql server.
I create an Execute SQL Task. The connection is set to the OLE connection The type is direct input The SQL Statement is "select max(id) from copy_table"
In Parameter Mapping, I create a user variable called maxId that is an int64. That variable is now used as the Variable Name. The Direction is Output. The Parameter Name is 0.
Whatever data type I use for the mapping does not work with the variable type. If the parameter was set to ULARGE_INTEGER, here's the error [Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "SELECT MAX(stats_id) AS max_id FROM copy_table" failed with the following error: "Type name is invalid.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
If parameter is set to LONG: [Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "maxId": "The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::maxId" differs from the current variable type. Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object. ".
I found that if variable and parameter were dates to use datetime for the variable and DBTIMESTAMP for the parameter.
There are an awful lot of combinations between all the possible variable types, and the possible parameter types. Does anyone know the secret combination for your typical integer?
Hello,I am currently trying to assign some string to a TEXT output parameterof a stored procedure.The basic structure of the stored procedure looks like this:-- 8< --CREATE PROCEDURE owner.StoredProc(@blob_data image,@clob_data text OUTPUT)ASINSERT INTO Table (blob_data, clob_data) VALUES (@blob_data, @clob_data);GO-- 8< --My previous attempts include using the convert function to convert astring into a TEXT data type:SET @clob_data = CONVERT(text, 'This is a test');Unfortunately, this leads to the following error: "Error 409: Theassignment operator operation cannot take a text data type as an argument."Is there any alternative available to make an assignment to a TEXToutput parameter?Regards,Thilo
I have a stored procedure that returns XML and have defined my own "Root" element w/ "ROOT('urlset')" in the stored procedure. When I put this into my Control Flow, I have a subsequent task that takes this XML stream and writes it to a file. The issue I am running into is that SSIS is adding it's own "Root" element before my output. Is there any way of avoiding this?
I have a UDF which returns a string of XML data (of the data type XML)
I want to use this UDF within an Execute SQL Task to set a variable to the output of the UDF. I then want to use the variable to pass the XML string to a XML Task to apply an XSLT to the XML.
I have set the following properties in the Execute SQL Task:
ResultSet: XML
SQLSourceType: Direct Input
SQLStatement: SELECT [dbo].[fn_GENERATE_XML](123) as rawxml
ResultName: 0
Variable Name:user::xml (where the variable is of type string)
My problem is something to do with the UDF call as if I substitute the UDF for a simple SELECT statement with a FOR XML Clause it works fine.
If ive got different pieces in a dataflow, how could I for example, see the output of a datasource before it gets to destination ? If im executing a task, what can i get access to from the immedate window to see the outputs at various stages ?
I'm just starting to find my way around SSIS, coming from SQL 2000 DTS, but I can't see a way of including a Win32 Console application's output into the logging process.
I've started playing around with SSIS Logs (OnTaskFailed etc..), but I can find no where to allow me to capture the output from a console app. In SQL 2000 DTS I could capture this by specifying an "output file" on the advanced tab of the job step definition. Is there something as straight forward as this in SSIS ?
I'd be grateful for a few pointers in the right direction.
Hi guys. I have a procedure with just one parameter. That's a output parameter. It's type is NVARCHAR I think there's no problem with the procedure. Now I want to execute it. Can I declare that variable passed by parameter to the procedure ? Must I use the Execute command ?
I am building this as an expression, but it is not working. I am trying to return the row count into a variable to use later in an update statement. What am I doing wrong? I am using a single row result set. I have one variable defined in my result set. I am receiving an error stating: Execute SQL Task: There is an invalid number of result bindings returned for the ResultSetType: "ResultSetType_SingleRow". Any help is appreciated!

IS that possible to get teh output of a execute sql task to excel destination.I have query which will comapre the data difference between two databses. It will comapre all tables in both databses and list out the difference in data by each table. I need to run this query using SSIS and need to get the output to a excel sheet...I have used the data flow task to run this query but my query is giving some error when used with data flow task. So i have used excecute sql task and need to write teh out put to a excel sheet.
I am trying to create an Execute SQL task that sets a variable.
This is my SQL
DECLARE @Period AS DATETIME
SET @Period =Parameter0 + '/01/' + Parameter1 SET @Period = DATEADD(m, -1, @Period)
SELECT DATEADD(s, -1, @Period)
This statement parses okay.
I mapped two variables called "User::PeriodMonth" and "User::PeriodYear" in the Parameter Mapping tab to the parameters.
In the Result Set tabl I have mapped a variable "User::PeriodStartDate" to Result Name "PeriodStartDate".
The error I get is the following:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "DECLARE @Period AS DATETIME SET @Period =Parameter0 + '/01/' + Parameter1 SET @Period = DATEADD(m, -1, @Period) SELECT DATEADD(s, -1, @Period) " failed with the following error: "Parameter name is unrecognized.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
The Online Books are not helpful. They just say you have to bind the parameters to the application variables.
What am I doing wrong?
I want to set another variable called "PeriodEndDate" also. Can both variables be set in the same task?
I'm trying to use "findstr.exe" to extract some lines of interest from a data file, which I will later load to a table. I'd like to issue this form of a command:
findstr.exe "^SEARCHSTRING" "srcfile" > "dstfile"
I build the arguments using expressions, and both the search string and source file get correctly set. However, the ">" seems to be ignored--I can see the lines spitting out to the temporary window when I run under VS.
QUESTION: how do you redirect the output of a command run under an Execute Process Task?
(1) I know how to use the ? ? ? and 0, 1, 2 notation in Parameter Mapping within Execute SQL Task. However, the interface allows me to give descriptive names to my parameters (other than the ordinals 0, 1, 2, ...). To be more clear, if you go into Parameter Mapping and click in Parameter Name column, you are not just restricted to typing in 0, 1, 2, ... You can type anything you want for the name. Does this suggest that I can use other things besides a "?" in my SQL command?
(2) What is Parameter Size? Is this like a data type? If so, why am I allowed to type in anything I want in there?
I am trying to assign the same package variable value to three different parameters in a query. The variable contains the name of a database which the user will input during package execution. First I check to see if the database exists (if it does I drop it), then in either case I create the database. See code:
if exists
(
select name
from sys.databases
where name = ?
)
begin
drop database ?;
end;
go
create database ?;
go
This is the error I am getting:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "if exists ( select name from sys.databases where name = ? ) begin drop database ?; end; " failed with the following error: "Syntax error, permission violation, or other nonspecific error". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
My "User::DestinationDatabase" variable is mapped to 0,1,2 using an OLE DB connection. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Is it not possible to have table name as a parameter? For example have the SQL something like:
Delete From ? Where ID = ?
.. I get error:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "Delete From ? Where ID = ?" failed with the following error: "Must declare the table variable "@P1".". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
I have a Script task which generates a GUID and stores it in the variable @[User::AttachmentListId], which is of type System.Object since Guid wasn't an option. Following this is an Execute SQL task (with an OLE DB connection to an SQL Server 2000 database) whose SQL statement is
EXEC AddAttachmentListItem ?, ?, 0
My parameter mapping looks like this (variable name, direction, data type, parameter name, parameter size):
@[User::AttachmentListId], Input, GUID, 0, -1
@[User::AFilePath], Input, VARCHAR, 1, 260
When I execute my package I get the following error:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "EXEC AddAttachmentListItem ?, ?, 0" failed with the following error: "The type is not supported.DBTYPE_GUID". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
This worked earlier when the first parameter was an int and not a uniqueidentifier, but I reworked my design because the GUID was a better choice for what I was doing. Well, at least 'til I got to this point....
I haven't been able to successfully use the ADO.NET connection type to use both input and output parameters in an execute sql task containing just tsql statements (no stored procedure calls). I have successfully used input parameters on their own but when i combine it with output parameters it fails on the simplest of tasks.
I would really find it beneficial if you could use the flexibility of an ADO.NET connection type as the parameter marker and parameter name can be referenced anywhere throughout the sql statement in no particular order. The addition of an output parameter would really make it great!!
In temp table there rae data which start with 1 and 2.I want to select only those record which start with 1 Zone is a parameter to the Execute sql task in ssis package..I have created sample code to test when I am running my query I am not getting anything
create table #temp ( zoneid bigint ) insert into #temp values(100000000000000000) insert into #temp values(100000000000000000) insert into #temp values(100000000000000000) insert into #temp values(100000000000000000) insert into #temp values(200000000000000000) insert into #temp values(200000000000000000)
I have a SSIS Execute SQL Task that calls a stored procedure with a date parameter. The text of the stored procedure is an "INSERT INTO .. SELECT ..." statement. When I run the text in Query Analyzer, it completes successfully. When I call the Stored Procedure, it executes but does not insert the data. Setting ByPass Prepare to True does not affect the outcome. I also used the query directly in the SQL task itself to no avail. Executing the query in Query Analyzer works. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
As part of the logging process for data input, I want to update two fields in a logging table. The first is a datetime, derived from looking up the maximum value in another table (the table I've just imported), and the second is an integer - the number of rows captured in a variable during the task.
I can do this in two separate Execute SQL tasks as follows:
Task 1 syntax
DECLARE @maxDate datetime SELECT @maxDate = max(dtLastChangedDate) FROM dbo.tblCancel_RAW
UPDATE dbo.tblLogging SET PreviousFilterValue = CurrentFilterValue, CurrentFilterValue = ISNULL(CAST ( @maxdate as varchar(25)),CurrentFilterValue), DateSourceTableLastRead = GetDate(), RowsReturned= -1 WHERE SourceTableName = 'cancel'
Task 2 Syntax, with the variable user::rowsimported mapped to parameter 0
UPDATE dbo.tblLogging SET RowsReturned= ? WHERE SourceTableName = 'cancel'
However I cannot make this work with a single SQL statement such as
DECLARE @maxDate datetime SELECT @maxDate = max(dtLastChangedDate) FROM dbo.tblCancel_RAW
UPDATE dbo.tblLogging SET PreviousFilterValue = CurrentFilterValue, CurrentFilterValue = ISNULL(CAST ( @maxdate as varchar(25)),CurrentFilterValue), DateSourceTableLastRead = GetDate(), RowsReturned= ? WHERE SourceTableName = 'cancel'
because no matter how I try to map the parameter (0,1,2,3,4 etc) the task fails.
Is this behaviour by design, is it a bug, or is there something I've missed?
Hi, this might be a simple one, but I have been stuck on it for days. I am just getting into SSIS and have been muddling through it for the rest of this package but I am stuck on this. I am using this SQL Execute Task to run some lookup queries and then call the sp_send_dbmail stored procedure. I have this placed in a For Each loop container. I am using a SELECT DISTINCT Branch FROM table1 into an Object parameter, and passing that into the loop container. I am then using a Input Parameter into this SQL Execute Task of type String. I have run a Script task right before this step to ensure that the variable is populated and correct. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Here is the SQL Execute Task :
DECLARE @SQL varchar(2400), @emaillist varchar(200), @branchMgrEmail varchar(100), @officeMgrEmail varchar(100), @branchMgrEmpNo varchar(5), @officeMgrEmpNo varchar(5), @subjectline varchar (100), @Today varchar(10), @BranchNumber varchar(2) SET @BranchNumber = ? SET @Today = convert(char(8),getdate(),1) SET @SQL = 'SELECT rtrim(CONVERT(char(10), PostedDate, 101)) AS Posted_Date, CAST(Branch AS CHAR(2)) AS Branch, CAST(Department AS CHAR(2)) AS Department, CAST(InvoiceNumber AS CHAR(7)) AS Invoice_Number FROM onbase.dbo.MHC_IncompleteRepairOrders WHERE Branch = ' + @BranchNumber + 'AND HardCardCount = 0 AND WorkAuthCount = 0 AND QualityControlCount = 0 AND MiscDocsCount = 0' SET @subjectline = @Today + ' - Repair Order Validation Notification for Branch #' + @BranchNumber SET @branchMgrEmpNo = (SELECT branchempno FROM onbase.dbo.BranchMaster WHERE Branch = @BranchNumber) SET @officeMgrEmpNo = (SELECT officeempno FROM onbase.dbo.BranchMaster WHERE Branch = @BranchNumber) SET @branchMgrEmail = (SELECT empemailaddress FROM onbase.dbo.ActiveDirectory WHERE CAST(empno AS integer) = @branchMgrEmpNo) SET @officeMgrEmail = (SELECT empemailaddress FROM onbase.dbo.ActiveDirectory WHERE CAST(empno AS integer) = @officeMgrEmpNo) SET @emaillist = @branchMgrEmail + '; ' + @officeMgrEmail BEGIN EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail @recipients = 'email@email.com', --@recipients = @emaillist, --@copy_recipients = 'email@email, @attach_query_result_as_file = 0, @subject = @subjectline, @body = 'This email contains a list of Stuff

I have a execute sql task to create and drop logins. I want to create/drop the ASPNET login, but I need to pass the domain using a parameter. So I mapped a parameter:
Variable name: User::serverName
Direction: Input
DataType: Varchar
Parameter Name:0
and the sql is the following:
CREATE LOGIN [?ASPNET] FROM WINDOWS
But I get the error:
Executing the query "CREATE LOGIN [?ASPNET] FROM WINDOWS failed with the following error: "Windows NT user or group '?ASPNET' not found. Check the name again.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
I've seen many entries about trailing spaces but have not found one like this.
In the Control Flow I am using an "Execute SQL Task" to populate some SSIS local variables (type string) by: (1) executing a SQL stored proc with output variables (type varchar(100)) to (2) be mapped to the local variable name (the parameter mapping Data Type is VARCHAR).
One of these mapped outputs is used as a path for subsequent operation in the Control Flow. At execution the sproc fires, populating the local variable with the path but with trailing spaces out to 255. Later in the "Script Task" when that path is used I receive an error telling me that the path is too long, and something about 260 or 246 characters.
Here's the oddity. I have two desktop environments running XP and a server environment (server 2003). This package runs just fine on the server - no trailing space issue, no need to trim. But on both my desktops I get the errors. By adding trim statements I can get back the correct path, but varchars should not be including trailing spaces, and the sproc return variable is a varchar (100).
I know this soulds like numerous other posts which indicate the solution is to trim, but I think the question I am asking is why does it work on the server but not the desktop? Is the SSIS variable type string experiencing a bug on different OS's? Not to further complicate the issue but it used to work on my laptop, but through a horrible sequence of events I had to reload the studio in which case the error started to happen on that too.
I'm trying to do something that should be fairly straightforward, but SSIS seems to be getting confused. I have a stored procedure which takes a timestamp as an input parameter. (NOTE: It's not a DateTime that's being stored as a DBTIMESTAMP, it really is a timestamp in the SQL sense.)
The command should be something like this:
Code Block
EXEC dbo.UpdateSynchTimestamp ? I tried to use my variable to pass the value through Parameter Mapping, but I got an unusual error:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "EXEC dbo.UpdateSynchTimestamp ?" failed with the following error: "An error occurred while extracting the result into a variable of type (DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP)". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
This is strange for a number of reasons:
1) The DBTIMESTAMP parameter has the Direction set to "Input", so it should not be interpreted as an Output or ReturnValue. 2) The Execute SQL Task has Result Set = "None", so it should not be trying to return anything.
If I change the code to include a value hard-coded it works:
Code Block
EXEC dbo.UpdateSynchTimestamp 0x00000000000013BD It is only when a variable is involved that it breaks.
Finally, here's the Stored Procedure itself:
Code Block
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[UpdateSynchTimestamp] @NewValue TIMESTAMP AS BEGIN SET NOCOUNT ON;
UPDATE ServerSettings SET [Value] = @NewValue WHERE [Key] = 'SynchTimestamp' END Doe anyone have any suggestions as to why this isn't working for me? For the time being, I have a Script Task which constructs the command text and stores it in a variable. I can't even use an Expression because the DBTIMESTAMP is not supported.
Hello! I would like to write a value from a column to a parameter in SSIS with the Execute SQL task. The problem is that I will never get a value for the parameter.
You can recreate the problem with the AdventureWorksDW sample database.
1. Drop an execute SQL task in the control flow
2. Set the connection to the AdventureWorksDw database
3. Write this in the SQL Statement box Select Max(FullDateAlterNateKey) as LastDate
From DimTime 4. Set the resultset to single Row 5. Under result set assign LastDate as the Result Name and create a parameter with a default date. 6. Execute the task, that will finish succesfully but the value of the parameter in 5 have not changed.
I have tried to change the scope to both the package level and the task level without any success. The value of the variable is still the default value. I have also tried a string variable without sucess.
Hi, I am trying to use an integer as input parameter for my task I get suck on the parameter data type.
The input parameter is define as @Control_ID variable as Int32 in SSIS. When I got into the parameter mapping of Execute SQL Task, I don't find the Int32 data type. I used to try Short, Numeric, Decimal and so on, but all of those data type didn't work. and it returns the following error message:
SSIS package "DCLoading.dtsx" starting. Error: 0xC002F210 at Update Control_ID, Execute SQL Task: Executing the query "use DCAStaging
update DCA_HFStaging set [dbo].[Control_ID] = P0 where [Control_ID] is null " failed with the following error: "The multi-part identifier "dbo.Control_ID" could not be bound.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly. Task failed: Update Control_ID Warning: 0x80019002 at DCLoading: The Execution method succeeded, but the number of errors raised (1) reached the maximum allowed (1); resulting in failure. This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors. SSIS package "DCLoading.dtsx" finished: Failure.
Here's the situation: I have a ssis package which receives 3 dates as input parameters (3 datetime variables), executes different data flows and at the end inserts (among some other values) these 3 dates into a custom log table.
The problem comes while inserting the values into a log table. I added an Execute SQL Task that calls a stored procedure which inserts a record into a log table (sqlStatement exec dbo.InsertIntoLog date1=?, date2=?, date3=?). In Parameter mapping section I set parameters = variables that hold the datetime values. The problem is that the dates are inserted into the log table in American format (mm/dd/yyyy, that's the server setting), my dates are in the european format...
Any ideas how to avoid it? Is there a way to write an expression instead of the sqlStatement in which I'd do some datepart-ing?
