Problem Setting Package Variables In SSIS Package

Sep 8, 2006

Hi,

I am making use of the DtUtil tool to deploy my package to SQL Server.
Following is my configuration:
32-bit machine and 32-bit named instance of Yukon.

I have some package variables which need to be set in the code.

Previously I did it as follows:

Set the package variables in the code. For example:

pkgFile.Variables["User::DestinationServerName"].Value = <myvalue>

Deploy the package as follows:

applnObj.SaveToSqlServer(pkgFile, null,
destinationServer, null, null);

Here the package was successfully deployed and when i open those packages using BIDS, I am able to see that the variables are set to the values as doen in teh code.


Because of oen problem I am not using SaveToSQLServer method. So I switched to DTUtil tool.
Now I am doing it this way:

Set the package variables as before.
Deploy the package to SQL Server using DTUtil tool.

Now is the problem:
The package is successfully deployed. But the variables are not set to the value that I have specified in the code.

I also tried DTexec utility to set the package variable. Even that does n't work.
Can anyone help me out? Is there any alternate method to set package variables?

Thanks,
Sandhya

Understanding Package Configurations And Setting Variables

Feb 26, 2008

I am trying to understand the relationship of setting package configurations and setting variable values during job scheduling. I understand that I can select variables that I want to manipulate at run time using package configurations. I understand that the configuration file is an xml file that the job can be told to access at run time. Here are my questions:

1. Once I create a configuration file, do I physically modify the file to change the variable that is input at runtime?
2. Do I have to select the config file and then change the value using the Set values tab?
3. What is the relationship between the config file and the set values tab?

4. When creating a package configuration, when would you use the options other than XML configuration file?

Execute Package Task: Setting Child Variables

Feb 13, 2007

Hi,
Let's say I have a package taking as parameter "InvoiceID". I want to execute this package as a child in another package. The parent package gets the list of invoices to produce and calls the child package for each entry of the list.

How do I pass the InvoiceID to the child? I know I can use the parent's variables from the child but I don't want the child package to be dependant on the parent package. For example, I might want to execute the "child" package as a stand-alone in development (providing it with a predefined InvoiceID). I might also want to call the same child package from another parent package with other variable names.

What I would like to do is "push" the value instead of "pulling" it. I know it's possible using the command line and the /SET option (ex.: /SET Package.Variables[InvoiceID].Value;' 184084)... Is it possible using the Execute Package Task?

Thanks

Programmatically Setting Package Variables In Job Step Command Line

Mar 1, 2007

We are trying to start a server job running an SSIS package and supply some parameters to the package when we start the job using SMO.

What we have now is this:

string cmdLine = job.JobSteps[0].Command;

cmdLine += @" /SET PackageGetGroupRatingYear_Id.Variables[User::RatingId].Value;1";

cmdLine += @" /SET PackageGetGroupRatingYear_Id.Variables[User::GroupId].Value;1";

cmdLine += " /SET \Package.Variables[User::period].Value;"" + periodEndDate + """;

job.JobSteps[0].Command = cmdLine;

job.Start();

It appears that when the job is run, the modified command line is not used.

What is needed to supply runtime parameters to a job step when starting the job via SMO?

Thanks,

SSIS Package &&amp; Variables

Aug 15, 2006

I have a SSIS package that was migrated from DTS 2000. It had a variable that I passed to the DTS package when executing. Now when I try executing the SSIS package with the variable, I get the following error: The package path referenced an object that cannot be found: "package.variables[user::SnapShotDate].value". This occurs when an attempt is made to resolve a package path to an object that cannot be found.

From everything that I can find, I am passing the variable correctly. If I look at the package within BIDS, my variable is listed under the variable window & it is scoped for the package. Any ideas on what I might be missing here? This is my first SSIS package that contains a variable.

Let me know if you need more info.

Thanks!

Variables In SSIS Package

Jan 22, 2008



I have defined an active X task (converting from SQL 2000)


Function Main()


DTSGLOBALVARIABLES("TEST").Value= InputBox("TEST : ","Message Box")

Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success

End Function


The problem is that this variable is not recognized by the subsequent tasks although I have defined a variable "TEST" in the variable lists.

Is there something else to do to get it recognized ?

Thanks for helping,

User Variables In SSIS Package Scope

May 8, 2008

I have created two User variables at Package level (OldRunID{Int32} and NewRunID{Int32}). I am using two simple ExecuteSQL Tasks to get a Single Row Resultset return (each) and loading them (on Result Set Page). Using the Constraint and Expression Flow controls, I have found that they load to True (-1) instead of the 25 and 50, respectively, that I would expect. I then wrote a Script task to evaluate their values and find that I get zero for Dts.Variables.Count. - Why am I not loading the variables correctly and why can I not access them in the Script task?

SSIS Updating Package Variables From Stored Procedures

Jul 31, 2007


I have been looking at the project Real reference implementation for doing auditing of data uploads. The tables and store procedures are in place using identical field and variable names. However, when running the package it does not update the relevant log entry with the end time and status.

I have performed the process manually running the stored procedures, providing the values directly and everything works fine.

I can only assume that the LogID variable is not being updated during the run and therefore the onEnd procedure cannot update the relevant log entry.

One side effect is that it does update the record when it€™s the first record entered into the table but not on any other inserts. Clearing the table each time is not an option.

This has become rather frustrating and would appreciate any assistance.

Thanks.

Passing Values For Variables To An SSIS Package From C#/ ASP.NET Page.

May 30, 2007

I've got an SSIS package that works fine. It does extracts from a foreign ODBC source and moves it to SQL Server. It has 3 variables, a customer ID, a fromDate and a toDate. Those variables are used to complete a SQL statement expression. So far so good.



I now want to provide a web interface in a web page that will enable the user to provide values for those variables. How can I execute my package passing the user's input?



Thanks for any advice.

Integration Services :: Cannot See SSIS Package In Drop Down List When Setting Up Job

May 26, 2015

I have an SSIS package created on SQL Server 2005. I have moved this to a SQL Server 2008 R2 server and amended the package on this new server to point at the correct databases.

The package runs manually. However, I cannot see the package when trying to schedule a job. The dropdown list does not contain the package.

I imported the package by right clicking on MSDB and selecting the package from the file system. The package then appears under this folder (SQL Server Integration Services). I then create the SQL job but cannot see the package I just created.

Parent Package Variables And SQL Package Store

Aug 23, 2007

Hello All,
I have a Master Package which calls a group of other packages out on the SSIS Package Store using parent / child and a number of variables. These seem to work when passing various audit information (audit key, record counts, etc) but when I try to pass a variable for the connection string and assign it via an expression to the connection manager, I get the Master Package writing to the correct database and the children package writing to their "default" database which is supplied as the default value in the variables which should be populated by the parent task.

i.e., I end up with my master package audit information in database a and child package audit and transactions in database b, even though the packages associated with these transactions are supposed to be reading the connection string from a parent variable. Any clues or suggestions?

Edit: It is still passing along the correct parent audit information and record counts, it's just not connecting to the correct database by the variables holding the connect string

Thanks for your time.

SQL 2012 :: Passing Record Counts From Execute Task In SSIS To Package Variables

Mar 4, 2014

I've got a package in SSIS 2012 that has an Execute SQL task in the control flow level.

The SQL in question does an Upsert via the SQL merge statement. What I want to do, is return the count of records inserted and records updated (No deletes going on here to worry about). I'm using the output option to output the changed recs to a table variable.

I've tried returning the values as:

Select Count(*) as UpdateCount from @mergeOutput where Action = 'Update'
and
Select Count(*) as InsertCount from @mergeOutput where Action = 'Insert'

I've tried setting the resultset to both Single rowset and Full rowset, but i'm not seeing anything returned to the package variables I've set for them (intInsertcount and intUpdatecount).

SQL Server 2008 :: Setting To Not Rollback A Failed SSIS Package That Inserts 100 Million Records?

May 20, 2015

I have a pretty simple SSIS package that fast loads a 100 million record table into a SQL Server 2008 table on a daily basis. This normally runs fine and completes in about 1 hour. As this is perhaps one of our largest running SSIS packages, about once every 2-3 weeks this SSIS will fail/drop connection. Once it fails, the large number of records will start rolling back. This rollback process can take 1+ hours so I cannot even restart the failed SSIS package immediately. This is a problem.

I am looking for a solution or option so I do not have to wait on that rollback to restart this particular, long running SSIS package. Is there an option/setting to leave the partial data set committed and not rollback? Then I could just restart the SSIS package immediately or set it the SSIS to auto-restart 1 time on failure. The first step in the SSIS does a truncate of the destination table.

oGlobal.value = "SIA"
oPackage.GlobalVariables.Add oGlobal

'Execute package
oPackage.Execute

Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success

End Function

This does not work. Can anyone please help?

Thanks very much in advance.

Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor (Inner Variables Vs Outer Variables)

Sep 4, 2006

Hi,

I am not comfortable with DTS 2000 but I need to execute a encapsulated DTS 2000 package from a SSIS package. The real problem is when I need to pass SSIS variables to DTS 2000 package. The DTS 2000 package have 3 global variables that I can identify on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - Inner Variables ". I believe the SSIS variables must be mapped on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - OuterVariables ". How can I associate the SSIS variables(OuterVariables ) to "Inner Variables"? How can I do it? Much Thanks.

How To Design A Package With Variables So That I Can Run It By Dos Command Assigning Values To Variables?

Jan 24, 2006

Hi,

I would like to design a SSIS package, which have couple of variables. It loads a xls file specified in a variable [varExcelFileFullPath] .

I will run it by commands: exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL ....' (pls see an example below).

It seems it does not get the values passed in for those variables. I deployed the package to a sql server.

are there any grammar errors here? I copied it from dtexecui. It worked inside Dtexecui not in dos command.

exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL "LoadExcelDB" /SERVER test /USER *** /PASSWORD ****

/MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW

/LOGGER "{6AA833A1-E4B2-4431-831B-DE695049DC61}";"Test.SuperBowl"

/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileName].Properties[Value];"TestAdHocLayer"

/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelWorkbookName].Value;"Sheet1$"

/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileFullPath].Value;"D: estshareTestAdHocLayer.xls"

/Set Package.Variables[User::varDestinationTableName].Value;"FeaturesTmp"

/Set Package.Variables[User::varPreSQLAction].Value;"delete from FeaturesTmp"

Passing Execute DTS Package Result (success/failure) To Calling SSIS Package

Mar 6, 2008

I have a SSIS job, one of the last steps it performs is to execute a SQL 2000 DTS package. This has to be done as a SQL 2000 DTS package as it is performing rebuilds of SQL 2000 Analysis Services dimensions and cubes. We've found that when the DTS fails the SSIS job is happily completing showing as a success, we would prefer to know it went wrong.

As far as I'm aware SSIS merely starts the DTS off and doesn't care about it's result. I've taken a look in to turning on the logging for the execute DTS package and thought that the ExecuteDTS80PackageTaskTaskResult would give me the answer I need...but is merely written to the log not available as an event-handler. It also looks like it is not safe to put a SQL task in as the next item to go look at the SQL 2000 system tables to look at the log for the DTS package as the SSIS documentation warns that the DTS package can continue to run after the execute DTS package task has ended.

Ideally I want any error raised within the DTS package to cascade up to be an error in the SSIS job, I can then handle it appropriately. I cannot find a way to do this. Is there a way?

If not, can anyone suggest how in the remainder of the SSIS tasks I can be sure that the DTS has completed before I start any other tasks that will check for the SQL 2000 log of its execution?

Several Different Errors When Creating And Running SSIS Package. Package Runs Successfuly Sometimes.

May 2, 2008

Hi All,



I am in the process of moving from a 32-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise (9.0.3054) to a 64-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise (9.0.3054 with 4 CPUs and 8GB of memory on Win 2003 SP2) and the process has been very frustrating to say the least. I am having a problem with packages that I created on my 64-bit SQL Server. I am importing a few tables from the 32-SQL Server into the 64-bit SQL Server using the Task --> Import to create the package.



Sometimes when I am creating a package I get the following error in a message box:



SQL Server Import and Export Wizard

The SSIS Runtime object could not be created. Verify that DTS.dll is available and registered. The wizard cannot continue and it will terminate.

Additional information: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. (System.Windows.Forms)





Other times when I run a package that has run successfully before I get the following error:



Faulting application dtexecui.exe, version 9.0.3042.0, stamp 45cd726d, faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, stamp 00000000, debug? 0, fault address 0x025d23f0.





Other times I get this error message:



.NET Runtime version 2.0.50727.1433 - Fatal Execution Engine Error (79FFEE24) (80131506)





And still other times



The package appears to hang when running. By this I mean that the Package Execution Progress shows progress up to a point then it just stops. (The package takes about 17 seconds to run normally) CPU usage is at 1% and the package cannot be stopped.





I have deleted and re-created the package several times and I have also re-installed the service pack on the SQL Server (9.0.3054) but that did not help.





Does anyone have any other suggestions to try?





Thanks.

Problem When Running A SSIS Master-package-child Package On Non Default Sql-server Instance

Dec 6, 2007

Hi there

We have a SSIS run which runs as follows


The master package has a configuration file, specifying the connect strings
The master package passes these connect-strings to the child packages in a variable
Both master package and child packages have connection managers, setup to use localhost. This is done deliberately to be able to test the packages on individual development pc€™s.
We do not want to change anything inside the packages when deploying to test, and from test to production. All differences will be in the config files (which are pretty fixed, they very seldom change). That way we can be sure that we can deploy to production without any changes at all.

The package is run from the file system, through a job-schedule.

We experience the following when running on a not default sql-server instance (called dkms5253uedw)

Case 1:
The master package starts by executing three sql-scripts (drop foreign key€™s, truncate tables, create foreign key€™s). This works fine.

The master package then executes the first child package. We then in the sysdtslog get:

Error - €œcannot connect to database xxx€?
Info - €œpackage is preparing to get connection string from parent €¦€?

The child package then executes OK, does all it€™s work, and finish. Because there has been an error, the master package then stops with an error.

Case 2:
When we run exactly the same, but with the connection strings in the config file pointing to the default instance (dkms5253), the everything works fine.

Case 3:
When we run exactly the same, again against the dkms5253uedw instance, but now with the exact same databases defined in the default instance, it also works perfect.

Case 4:
When we then stop the sql-server on the default instance, the package faults again, this time with


Error - €œtimeout when connect to database xxx€?
Info - €œpackage is preparing to get connection string from parent €¦€?

And the continues as in the first case

From all this we conclude, that the child package tries to connect to the database before it knows the connection string it gets passed in the variable from the master package. It therefore tries to connect to the default instance, and this only works if the default instance is running and has the same databases defined. As far as we can see, the child package does no work against the default instance (no logging etc.).

We have tried delayed validation in the packages and in the connection managers, but with the same results (error).

So we are desperately hoping that someone can help us solve this problem.


Thanx,
/Nils M - Copenhagen

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