I am having some problem in running SSIS scheduled job.
The job is processing (updating and inserting) batches of data using Execute SQL Task inside Foreach loop container. But to make sure the batch complete successfully I put the "Begin Tran" Execute SQL Task and "Commit Tran" Execute SQL Task before and after the foreach loop
My workflow is like the following....
- Execute SQL Task "Begin Tran"
- ForEach Loop Container for a batch of records.
- Insert the records into the database
- End ForEach Loop
-Execute SQL Task "Commit Tran" if the above ForEach Loop complete successfully
-Execute SQL Task "Rollback Tran" if the ForEach Loop failed
Normally the insert records are around 10~200 and the job is running very fine...
But if the records are more than 1000s then sometime the job hung (I would say hung because the DTEXEC.exe can be seen inside the windows task manager.) There was no indication what so ever whether the job finished or the job failed or the job else....
Is there a way to register a new ForEach Enumerator within SSIS, for example ForEach Email in Exchange Inbox?
Or is the solution to create an SSIS variable and use the ForEach From Variable Enumerator? I take it the variable has to implement IEnumerable, or IEnumerable<T>.
My preference out of the two would be to register a new foreach enumerator which would take some implementation away from the developers and reduce time spent on the tasks at hand.
I am currently working on a project which needs to load over a 1000 xml files. The files are stored across 10 subfolders. I am using a foreach loop with a file enumerator, which is configured at the top of the folder structure and traverses the subfolders. This loops through the files, load the data and then moves the file to another folder. The package executes fine for a few 100 files but then hangs; this happens after a different number of processed files each time the package is run. While trying to resolve the problem we ran performance counters and noticed that the number open handles increased significantly just about the time Dtexec looked like it had hanged and DTexec also then started taking a lot of the cpu processing time. Has one else come across similar situations?
why when I make a change to a foreach loop container in a SSIS package it does not save?
I am trying to change the base file name and if I change it through either the edit or properties windows, the changes does not save. Fore example i change the Files: or File Spec: from oldfile*.txt to newfilename*.txt and when I save and og bak into the edit area to confirm the change, the Files: section shows as "oldfile*.txt.
I am new to SSIS world, so my question is very basic.
Setup:
In a company I work for we have 12 SQL servers each running between 1 and 3 databases with anywhere between 10 to 20 tables. I need to query some of these tables and merge results to the destination database.
The list of all these tables is stored in the separate table <SOURCES> of the following format [ServerName,DatabaseName,TableName]. Tables of my interest have identical structure (same columns) accross servers and databases.
Question:
How can I loop over servers and databases specified in <SOURCES> to run otherwise identical query against these tables?
I can easily retrieve [ServerName,DatabaseName,TableName] from <SOURCES> as string variables using FOREACH loop. The problem is now - how do I use string variables to set up Server, Database and Table name at run-time?
How is foreach loop container - foreach ADO enumerator performace in SSIS package compares to use of cursors in stored procedures
Is there any articles comparing them
I understand a lot of factors can affect the performance, however what is expected performance for the foreach ADO enumerator loop for large dataset. What is Microsoft recommendation for that - recommended - not recommended (using large datasets - over million records)
I have no "Foreach File Enumerator" oprtion in the Enumerator Property of the Foreach Loop Component.
I have this enumerator in the c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSForEachEnumerators folder.
Also I check it in the GAC - it does not here. I try to execute gacutil.exe -iF ForEachFileEnumerator.dll, but it is failed with "Failure adding assembly to the cache: The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest." Seems it is not managed enumerator.
Please help me.
Also information on how to regeister unmanaged enumerators are welcome!
I am having a challenge to pass the filename variable from SSIS Foreach Loop Container to SQL store procedure. I have an "Execute SQL Task" inside "Foreach Loop Container" which will receive the input filename parameter passed by the Foreach Loop Container. The store procedure command line is defined as "EXEC sp_mySQLStoreProcedure ?" within the "Execute SQL Task". The Foreach loop container will gather the filenames from File System then put it in the filename variable one by one. I would like to pass the filename variable as the input parameter to the sp_mySQLStoreProcedure in the "Execute SQL Task". How can I connect the variable and the store procedure so that it will process all the input files gathered by the Foreach Loop Container?
In order to update an Oracle table target from a SQL Server table source I need to use a Foreach Loop Container, so I can loop on the rows of the SQL Server table source. This source table has two columns: the old identifier to update and the new identifier to apply. I must use the value of the old identifier to filter the Oracle rows to update, while the new identifier is the new value to assign to the filtered old identifier.
I already know how to use the Foreach Loop Container when it is necessary to loop on an unique column of a table/view (using an object variable, using a Foreach ADO enumerator, etc.), but I need to loop on two columns.
I need to execute about dozen packages from another package... how do I dynamically pass the dozen package names to the package and execute using foreach loop...?
idea is to store the names of packages in a text file and set the file connection property reading each package names from the text file... in this way I can just configure/edit the text file from time to time, the packages and the units that I want to execute...
The foreach loop below runs fine and it sends emails as expected but the SP does not update the Companies table. Any thoughts? How do I cause the SP to execute? PROCEDURE newdawn.EmailSentDate @CID intAS UPDATE Companies SET Companies.LastEmailDate = (GetDate()) WHERE tblCompanies.C_ID = @CID RETURN foreach (GridViewRow row in GridView3.Rows) { pstrTo = row.Cells[2].Text; CEmail = row.Cells[2].Text; CName = row.Cells[3].Text; CID = row.Cells[1].Text; CState = TextBox1.Text; CCity = row.Cells[5].Text; CCat = row.Cells[4].Text; CCID = row.Cells[0].Text; SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["localhomeexpoConnectionString2"].ConnectionString); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("EmailSentDate", con); cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@CID", CCID); try { System.String mailServerName = "mail.domain.com"; REST of code sends email to email address found in each row ....it all works find but SP above does not fire.
Sorry that I open a new thread again but I didn€™t found any good tutorials about foreach loop container. I would like to read every row from one table and do something. I red something about sql task€¦ Can someone give a little instruction, please?
I using data flow task to import from flat file to database but i need to use Foreach Loop Container to import multiple files in specific folder and all will be insert in the same table
Help with Looping in a SSIS Package Scenario: We have a web app that lets our existing clients insert new locations into a table (Clients) in a SQL Server DB. This table has an Identity column as the PK. This table also has another ID field HBID that is the PK for another table (HLocation) in another Database system (Sybase). The HBID field is given a Default value of €˜1€™ during an insert operation in our (SQL Server) table, Clients. The Sybase database uses a Sequence table for inserting a PK into the table. Whenever our clients insert a new record in Clients (SQL Server), I need to generate a new HBID from the Sequence table in (Sybase), update the HBID in the Clients table (SQL Server) and then finally insert the record with the new HBID into table HLocation (Sybase). I have devised a SSIS package for this as following: Note all variables are scoped at the Package Level. Execute SQL Task #1 that drives a For Each Loop with the following properties: General: Connection Type: OLE DB Connection: SQL Server DB SQL SourceType: Direct Input SQLStatement: SELECT COID, HBID, Name, DateCreated FROM Client WHERE HBID = '1'
ResultSet: = Full Resultset
Result Set: Result Name = 0 VariableName = USER::rsClient Variable Type = Object
ForEachLoop with the follwing properties:
Collection: Foreach ADO Enumerator ADO Object Source Variable = USER::rsClient Enumeration Mode = Rows in first table Variable Mappings: Variable: Index: COID 0 HBID 1 Name 2 DateCreated 3
Inside of the ForEachLoop I have another Execute SQL Task to generate a new HBID from Sybase set up as following.
Execute SQL Task #2
Connection Type: OLE DB Connection: Sybase SQL SourceType: Direct Input SQLStatement: UPDATE Autoinc SET INC_LAST = (INC_LAST+1) WHERE INC_KEY ='HBID'; SELECT INC_LAST AS NewHBID FROM Autoinc WHERE INC_KEY ='HBID'
ResultSet = SingleRow
Result Set: Result Name = NewHBID VariableName = USER::NewHBID, VariableType = Int32
Also Inside the ForEachLoop is a Script Task that has all of my variables as ReadWrite = COID, HBID, Name, DateCreated and NewHBID. I concatenate the values in a string a pass the string into a Message Box to make sure they are looping correctly and they are.For example the results might look like the following:
12698, 1, John Doe Trucking, 10/1/2007, 14550 13974, 1, Joe Smith Trucking, 10/1/2007, 14551 10542, 1, Dave Jones Trucking, 10/1/2007, 14552 Etc.
The values 14550 -14552 are the new HBID being generated in the loop.
The problem is that when I try to Update the HBID in the Client table (SQL Server) with another Execute SQL Task I keep getting the same NewHBID number. In this case 14550 would be updated for every record instead of the next number in the loop.
I have set up Execute SQL Task #3 as follows:
General: Connection Type: OLE DB Connection: SQL Server DB SQL SourceType: Direct Input SQLStatement: UPDATE Client SET HBID = ? WHERE HBID = '1'(SELECT COID, HBID, Name, DateCreated FROM Client)
ResultSet: = Full ResultSet
Result Set: Result Name = 0 VariableName = USER::rsNewClient, VariableType = Object
Parameter Mapping: VariableName USER::NewHBID, Direction = INPUT, DataType = Long ParameterName = 0
I€™ve tried putting Execute SQL Task #3 inside of the ForEachLoop, connecting it to the output of the ForEachLoop. I€™ve tried setting up a dataflow with a Derived Column using the USER::NewHBID as the Expression.
I still get the same results, 14550 added to every row.
Can any one help or shed some light?
Any and all suggestion will be deeply appreciated!
I'm having a problem where I'm using a Execute SQL Task to retrieve a dataset and storing that in an object variable. Then on success of that execute sql task I use a foreach loop task to go through the dataset and do 2 tasks inside the foreach loop. When I execute this package I have ~12 records in the dataset however when I get to the foreach loop in the 2nd iteration it keeps repeating it. It acts like it is stuck on the second record (tuple) and never goes on. I'm using an ForEach ADO Enumerator in the foreach. I've even set a breakpoint on each iteration and no task fails in side the foreach loop. I'm completely perplexed why it will iterate to the 2nd record but get stuck there in an endless loop. I've tried this on 2 different computers (with different data values) and the same thing happens. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I defined Foreach File Enumerator,there are more than 2 files needed to deal with,it donesn't work if i don't specify filename in flat file connection manager editor,however if i specify filename then doesn't foreach files
Trying to through a process together and using the "ForEach Loop" task. When configuring the task and using the ForEach Loop Editor I do not have the "ForEach File Enumerator" in the drop down. Anyone know whats going on or what I need to do to make this appear. I only see 5 selections: ADO, ADO.Net Schema Rowset, Variable, NodeList, and SMO Enumerators. I am also using the SQL 2005 eval with SP1.
Here is what I am attempting to get accomplished. I have an SSIS package that contains a Foreach loop container. This container executes a number of SQL tasks in order: SQL Task 1, SQL Task 2, SQL Task 3.
if the SQL task 1 succeeds it should flow on to SQL Task 2 and 3. This works fine when the SQL tasks do not fail...
In the event of any SQL Task failing control should flow to a send mail task to alert about the failure. Next the Foreach loop container should go to the next enumeration in the Foreach loop container and start the next new SQL task 1. So far I have been able to get the control to flow to the send mail task when a SQL Task fails. What does not work is when one SQL Task fails the entire Foreach loop fails and does not move to the next enumeration. It should only fail the package and move on.
I need to put a FTP task inside a Foreach Loop Container to upload data files to many different FTP servers. The container holds a variable with object data type that includes necessory FTP info (FTP server address, login, password and remote path). How do I configure FTP task so that I can pass the variables to it?
I€™m new to SSIS and have a question about foreach loop container. Basically, I have 4 data flows and each of them has a variable that need be pass on to the next step, each of the variables will call a same stored procedure. What should I use here? I guess I can use foreach loop container with the stored procedure inside of it, is that right? I tried all day yesterday and cannot make it work. The foreach loop container did not call the procedure at all. Could someone kindly tell me how to do it?
We discovered that the Foreach loop isn't recalculating the number of files found upon each new loop iteration, so if any new files are placed into the receive directory during the looping, they are not detected/processed. is this a bug or product intention?
Can anyone point me to an example of using a ForEach Loop Container to step through the rows in a recordset. I cannot seem to see how this is done from the help files.
I have a foreach loop that is processing files in a directory. One of the tasks is the execute sql task that calls a stored proc. If this stored proc returns a certain value then I need to exit the loop and not process any more files. But I have been unable to figure out how to make this happen.
I would like your help with the Foreach loop container. Boy, am I having issues with using it for looping through an ADO.NET dataset or what!?!? My control flow has a data flow task that is executing a Data Reader task (creating a .NET dataset for me). Now I go back to the control flow and add a Foreach loop container to loop through each record in my dataset. But which type of the Foreach loop container should I be using? I see an option to use Foreach ADO.NET schema enumerator but not sure how to configure it. Also I used the Foreach ADO option, but setting up variables to go through every column is an absolute pain in the you know what!!?!! I have about 200 columns and I want an easier way to refer to those columns in my transformation phase.
