This would actually be funny if I weren't under serious time constraints right now. I have an SSIS project with several script tasks in the control flow. I put breakpoints in one of them to allow me to step through and see whats going on. However, when I start the project, the IDE brings up the script editor for a different script task. The breakpoints in this task are actually on the same line numbers as the task I need to debug but the code is all wrong. I checked the task for which the code is being displayed and there are no breakpoints there.
After upgrading to CTP16 (Sept.), I can't seem to debug my script task. Everytime I run the package with a breakpoint in script task I get following error: "SQL Server Integration Services Script Task has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. "
I have debugged a Control Flow script task and everything went as expected. I put a breakpoint somewhere in my script code, press F5 and execution will break there.

I am trying to debug a script task within a SSIS package by setting a breakpoint within the design window of teh script taks and I get the following error:
Other packages within the solution have script tasks and I can debug these with no problem. This particular script task has constanly given me this error.
Please let me know if there is additional information that I need to provide to facilitate a solution.
How can I debug data flow task. From this article (http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3567961) and this video (http://www.jumpstarttv.com/Media.aspx?vid=3) I found that when we are executing the task, the data count will be shown along with color coded task but when I debug the package, no count is shown. I have SQL and source and flat file as destination. There is nothing stored in the destination file but the sql script returns the data.
How to debug a script component task made in .Net? I've got a Inmediate Window, Start Without Debugging, Toggle Breakpoint, etc but nothing works. When I press Start nothing happens. I suppose that anything very very of paramount importance I'm forgetting but I haven't any clue
I just had this happen twice in a row. The data flow task is showing a number of records almost twice as high as the actual data that is going into the table. This happened to me in two different DFT's with different data.
I am using an OLEDB source which uses a query something like:
select * from functiona()
In the DataFlowTask I see it had around 400,000 Rows go through the path all the way to the deastionation..
However I know that isn't right. If I do:
select count(*) from functiona() I get 200000 rows. Now the weird thing is if I check the table that it inserted to, it has the right number of rows, 200,000. (Numbers are not exact).
I have followed the instructions for SSIS Lesson 1 exactly but i get these 4 errors when I come to debug at the "Lookup Date Key" lookup transformation. Last step in the lesson.
1. [Lookup Date Key [66]] Error: Row yielded no match during lookup. 2. [Lookup Date Key [66]] Error: The "component "Lookup Date Key" (66)" failed because error code 0xC020901E occurred, and the error row disposition on "output "Lookup Output" (68)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component. 3. [DTS.Pipeline] Error: The ProcessInput method on component "Lookup Date Key" (66) failed with error code 0xC0209029. The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput method. The error is specific to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data Flow task to stop running. 4. [DTS.Pipeline] Error: Thread "WorkThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0209029.
I have tried this on 2 hardware setups and recreated the package several times on both. The only thing i can think of is that the collations on both servers is SQL_Latin1_CP1_CI_AS and British English (I have huge legacy databases from SQL 7.0 and cannot get my tech support to change language settings of server to UK English). Is it possible that this is causing the lookup failure mentioned above (Q1)? How can I change the collation/language settings within the DTS so that the text file matches the AdventureWorksDW database settings if this is the issue (Q2)?
Are the error codes listed anywhere and if not can they be added BOL (Q3)? I have read other threads and they suggest 0xC0209029 means lookup failed due to differing lengths. Can dates have differing lengths (Q4)?
I just ran across an interesting problem, that makes no sense. I built an SSIS package that updates a column, using an transformation script. Testing in Debug mode everything runs perfectly, but when I have SQL sever agent run the package it insert null into the new column.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I am executing a single package that references 180 other packages , after executing the first 90-100 packages , SSIS designer completely freezes and then i have to kill the session using Task Manager . Is this a limitation of SSIS or is it a system constraint ?
If you have any suggestions or workarounds for de same plz do reply
SSIS 2008 when I develop and debug in BIDS sometimes ignores debug break point.
The script component is in the main control flow and at some point the breakpoint did work.
If, for example, I create a new project and copy my script component there the debug breakpoint will work.So it's absolutely *random* when it works and when it does not.
Below is my BIDS detail:
Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Version 9.0.30729.4462 QFE Microsoft .NET Framework Version 3.5 SP1 Installed Edition: IDE Standard Enterprise Library v5 Configuration Editor  4.0
When running a package in VS you can see something like this in the output window:
SSIS package "logging.dtsx" starting. Information: 0x40043006 at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: Prepare for Execute phase is beginning. Information: 0x40043007 at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: Pre-Execute phase is beginning.

Information: 0x4004300B at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: "component "OLE DB Destination" (1011)" wrote 1 rows. SSIS package "logging.dtsx" finished: Success.
This is exactly when I need when a package is running but I want to be able to see it without using Visual Studio. I would do it in Reporting Services but I need to find out to get the information. The SSIS logging feature in a package does not provide that kind of info.
I am using the "Transfer SQL Server Objects Task" to copy some tables from database A to database B including data.
The tables, primary key constraints, Foreign key, data and all transfers nicely except for "DEFAULT CONSTRAINTS" on the tables.
I have failed to find any option in the "Transfer SQL Server Objects Task" task to explicitly say "copy default constraints". So I guess logically it should happen automatically but it doesn't. I hope it is not a bug :-)
In short, does the €œTransfer SQL Server Objects Task€? support distributed transactions?
In trying to use a €œTransfer SQL Server Objects Task€? in a container using a transaction on the container. The task is set to support the transaction. It is setup to copy table data from several tables from a non-domain server (sql server 2000) to a domain-based server (sql server 2005). I get an error stating, €œThis task can not participate in a transaction€?.
I am wondering if it means exactly what it says €“ this task in SSIS can€™t participate at all. Or does it mean that it won€™t in this scenario for some reason. I attempted a simple copy of data from mssql 2005 to mssql 2005 (same server) and the task still failed). MSDTC appears to be running properly on my machine and such (I can do a simple distributed transaction across linked server to the 2000 server in Query Analyzer (QA)). Also, MSDTC appears to be working on both servers with distributed transaction query tests in QA.
Here€™s the error info€¦
SSIS package "Development BusinessContacts and Products Migration.dtsx" starting. Information: 0x4001100A at Copy BusinessContacts Data: Starting distributed transaction for this container. Error: 0xC002F319 at Copy BusinessContacts database table data 1, Transfer SQL Server Objects Task: This task can not participate in a transaction. Task failed: Copy BusinessContacts database table data 1 Information: 0x4001100C at Copy BusinessContacts database table data 1: Aborting the current distributed transaction. Information: 0x4001100C at Copy BusinessContacts Data: Aborting the current distributed transaction. SSIS package "Development BusinessContacts and Products Migration.dtsx" finished: Failure. The program '[4700] Development BusinessContacts and Products Migration.dtsx: DTS' has exited with code 0 (0x0).
A common issue that I run across with clients is they want only want to process a file if it's finished transmitting to the server. This SQL Server 2005 task reads the properties of a file and writes the values to a series of variables. For example, you can use this task to determine if the file is in use (still be uploaded or written to) and then conditionally run the Data Flow task to load the file if it's not being used. You can also use it to determine when the file was created in order to determine if it must be archived.
I've created my own posting for this. The original post was here, I apologize: http://forums.microsoft.com/forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2906512&SiteID=1
According to the poster it's not possible. But there has to be some way to do it? Reflection (don't know how)?
I need to get a reference to the task host in an SSIS Task component.
Basically the scenario is this:
I have a custom task I have created. However I would like to validate that the ExecValueVariable is infact a string variable during the validate event of the task. I know how to verify its a string variable. But I can't figure out how to read what the user selected (such as User::Myvariable). The only way I've been able to figure out how to do it, but it only works if you open my custom task UI.
What I did is this:
I've implemented IDtsTaskUI and during the initialize section I wrote:
Sub Initialize(ByVal taskHost As TaskHost, ByVal serviceProvider As IServiceProvider) Implements IDtsTaskUI.Initialize ' Store the TaskHost of the task. Me.taskHostValue = taskHost Dim myTask As CustomTask= CType(taskHost.InnerObject, CustomTask) myTask.myTaskHost = taskHost End Sub
My Task is named: CustomTask. I have a public variable in my task as follows:
Public NotInheritable Class CustomTask Inherits Task Implements IDTSComponentPersist Public myTaskHost As TaskHost = Nothing
Therefore I pass back the taskhost value to the CustomTask class, and voila I have it.
Problem is, this only works if the custom task calls the initialize method, and this only happens when you open the custom editor.
I then do the validation in my CustomTask class and it works fine, but myTaskHost is null/nothing until you actually open the custom task UI
Sorry guys, I'm really new to this. Can somebody tell me the easiest way to use the FTP task with a dynamic local path. I just want the FTP task to send whatever file is in the directory I specify.
I'm creating a package that extracts data from a table to a pipe-delimited file. I then use an external process (since using Expressions for it was a nightmare) to rename the file so that it'll reflect the previous month (e.g. April2008_report.txt). Then, I have to FTP that file. That's where my problem is. It seems I need to specify the exact filename on the local path of the FTP task, and since the filename will change each month... well, you see my problem.
Is there a way to tell the FTP task to just send *.txt, or something to that effect?
I have a master database. Based on certain criteria's I will be creating one new database. Once I have finished the creation, I have to check the value of a particular column in both database tables.
This is actually a status check. if both are not equal i have to update detail database table column value with master column value.
I thought i can use lookup transform for this. The problem is master database table's status datatype and detail table's status datatype is diff.
Can anyone suggest me any other way for this problem?
In my package i am loading data from a flat file into multiple tables like table1, table2, table3 all tables have a column called cust_num. But data for this column cust_num is only coming in table1 and i need to load the data from this column to other tables how can i do this.
I have written the Dynamic TSQL S-Proc. Below is what i wanted to implement in SSIS using foreach loop container as a cursor. But i am little doubtful whether I can achieve the dynamics to this level. I know everything is possible but is it advisable to go for this simple Sproc or SSIS tasks.
I have some 15 tables being populated using this SPROC.
Here is some helpful description ENTITYNAME gives me the table i need to work FIELDNAME gives me the field i have to work on CHANGEDVALUE gives me the value changed in that field ( This three i get from source table which is about 9000 rows and containing 15 possible ENTITY to be work on and 100's of their respective FIELD )
while in Cursors i need to get using these above variables other variables like FLAG KeyName
Thrugh SQL1 I get the KeyValue
then using this KeyValue check if the data exist update else insert new data.
QUESTION: IS THIS ADVISABLE to go for SSIS task or just carry with SPROC?
I m having an FTP Task in SSIS project, from where I have downloaded .csv file.
And also having a Processed Folder in which the processed .csv files are kept.
Main task is to download file from FTP and check , if the date of downloaded file is newer than file in processed folder, then only process that file. Else skip the processing
I have written a very basic Script Task using VS 2005, it just looks through a sqlDataReader and display a message. I want this script to be triggered by an SQL Agent. I am not sure what to do from this point on. How do I publish or whatever it is called to get it to the SQL server or agent? This is my very first attempt, no I have no clue what I am doing, will need lots of help and tutorials, thanks for reading.

Public Sub Main() ' Dts.Connections("SQL????").ConnectionString = "Data Source????" + Dts.Variables("servername").Value.ToString() + ???windows authentication and what else ???? ' Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success End Sub
Hi there, I'm still pretty new to SSIS, what I am really battling with is getting a custom task to work. I have developed a custom task, digitally signed it added it to the Global Assembly Cache, written the UI for it - Pretty much as it is done here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms136080.aspx but my problem is that when I drag it from the tool box into the control flow pane, I get this message: "The task user interface specified by type name 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' could not be loaded. (Microsoft.DatatransformationServices.Design).
Does anybody have an idea of what I am doing wrong here?
Please help me i am new to ssis ....I am trying to send an email using mail task and I am sure that ISP works fine with smtp.

I am new to SSIS. I wanted to do a daily ETL load from sourceA to targetB database
Please let me know the best method to that i should follow to do the below task
1. Get the Yesterday's date or last months's from-date & to-date dynamically. 2. Pass the from-date and to-date to my source SQL [e.g select emp_name, emp_dept from emp where hiredate between @param1 and @param2]. Acually my source sql has subquery and the parameters has to be passed to the subquery's where clause. 3. Insert the resultset into a staging table in the targetB database. 4. Join this targetB table with another table in sourceC db 5. finally load the result set in to the targetT database table 6. How to configure/schedule this package so that it runs daily, automatically pass the yesterday's date to the package.
I have done this using Oracle PL/SQL but my requirement is to do this in SSIS. I am not sure which control flow or transformation items to be used to do this in an effecient way.
When I first installed BI Studio everything was working fine, but I went into it today and I noticed that the FTP task seems to be missing, I can't see it in the toolbox, everything else appears to be their but not that.
Any idea how I can get this back, I really don't wont to uninstall and reinstall at the moment, and I'm not even sure if that would work.
We are unable to retrieve a file from an FTP server using SSIS FTP Task. With the settings indicated below:
IsRemotePathvariable: False
RemotePath: /home/ftpu/test.csv
IsLocalPathVariable: False
LocalPath: working_directory (with Connection Manager entry setup for this)
Operation: Receive files
The following error is produced:
Error: 0xC0029183 at FTP data, FTP Task: File represented by "/home/ftpu/ns_test.csv" does not exist.
Performing a manual ftp works fine, hence suggesting a fault with the SSIS TFP Task. Has anyone else successfully used an FTP task, and if so, any ideas on what's going wrong?
