SSIS Configurations Working In Dev But Not In Prod

Mar 19, 2007

I have a package that uses configurations to override package settings based on what environment the package runs in. The package's configuration entries begins with an initial XML config entry that overrides the package's connection manager to a SQL database that holds the remaining configs in a table. Subsequent config entries then fetch their settings from the table. This package is run from a SQL job.

This all works fine in dev. When I moved everything into prod the packages are not getting configured and are using their values stored in the DTSX files. I've triple checked the XML config file, the tables with the configs, and the packages. There are no error messages. I've added some debuging steps to the package to verify that the configs in the table are not getting into the package.

I've also tried manually changing the configs in the table where the package is set to look if the initial XML config fails to adjust the config database location. The package still fails to see any configs from the table.

What could be different between dev and prod that would produce this situation? Both dev and prod have identical copies of the package and the job and are currently pointed to the same configurations database.

By the way, the other connections in the package work for both source selects and destination inserts. Only the configurations are failing, and again there is no error message.

2. i deployed it on the server
3. Trying to execute the packages in a web page onclick event;

We have ASP.net WebPage; in On_Click Event, i have this code;

SSIS And Dynamic Configurations

Oct 9, 2007

I want to see if anyone in this community has come across this and has found a solution.

we have 3 different SQL Servers because we are still porting over SQL 2k databases 2k5. We have multiple databases of course. We would like to create some kind of template that would create the connection manager based off of the information in our XML configuration file. We are thinking we would have 2 files for this. One would house the actual server information but omit the database name and username/password. The second will be a list of all the databases with their usernames/passwords for each one.

If we put all of these in the configuration files and do not have a connection for each one, SSIS will throw the error stating it is missing connection managers for those items. We would like to see about maybe specifying the database name and have the connection manager dynamically pull the database specific information into the package. This would also need to be able to handle more then 1 database should there be the need.

I am new to SSIS. It seems pretty nice and extensible but my learning curve on it is horrible as I never programmed DTS packages before.

I hope I am making sense here. Thanks for any help offered!

Dynamic SSIS Configurations

Aug 23, 2007

Hey there,
I know that many articles have been written describing configurations for packages but I have yet to have found one that describes if it is possible to use SQL Server configuration type for a package that is to be tested on DEV, then UAT, then PROD boxes.

I would like to know if there's a way to store values in a config table in a database on DEV, UAT and PROD but never have to change anything in the package.

I mean, I wonder if I can pass a parameter that defines the server to go get the configurations from.
The 3 servers will contain a database with a config table named the same on each server but have different configuration values to point them to the proper sources and destinations depending on which server the configuration database resides.


Thank you,

Robin

SSIS File Configurations

Apr 10, 2007

Hello, I have a SSIS package that is making one database connection (dbMAIN). I am using the XML File Configuration to specify dbMAIN's properties (server, database, password, etc).

The problem is that the File Configuration contains entries for multiple databases (dbMAIN, dbTEST, dbSTAGING, etc)

When the SSIS is run through dtexec.exe, I get this error:
Error: 2007-04-10 16:52:23.39 Code: 0xC001000E Source: TEST Description: The connection "DDMAIN" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.End Error

I do not want it to give me an error. The XML File must house all our database connections. What can I do?

SSIS Package Configurations

Jun 20, 2007

I have a package that executes several other packages. I have an XML packageconfiguration file to set the servername for the parent package, do I need to just add that packageconfiguration to the parent package and the servername in the XML file will be used until all the packages executed from the parent package are executed or do I need to add that configuration file to each lower level package?



Thanks for any help.

URGENT!!!! SSIS Configurations And SQL Jobs

May 11, 2006

 

Hi there,

 

I've got an urgent thing I need to resolve.

 

I have a package that has a file connection. We have set the connection in the package for development - we also have the connection in a config file.

 

We are calling the package from SQL Jobs. In the step we call the package in, we try to set the value for the connection in the Data Source tab. However, the package does NOT use the value we enter.

I then removed the connection from the config file - then the package uses what the connection was set to in development. It still will not use what we enter in SQL Jobs.

Furthermore, when we run the package we lose the values that we put in the DataSource tab!!!!

My work around has been to change the SQL Job type from an INtegration services package to a straight command line - this works.

The question is - can you set a package's connection strings from SQL Jobs using the SSIS Job Type ???

 

Thanks!!!

SSIS Package Configurations - SQL Server

May 6, 2008



I am using package configurations to hold an email address. I can happily change the email adress when teh config is in an XML file, but when I choose SQL Server to store the package configurations I can change the email address but the changes are not picked up despite coming out of dev studio and back in again - it picks up the default set on the variables tab.

It simply refuses to pick up the email address from the SQL table, but happily creates the dbo.[SSIS Configurations] table with correct entries in the wizard 1st time round.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong ?

Issue With SSIS Package Configurations In SqlServer

Sep 18, 2007


Hello everyone,


I am working on a SSIS project and I am facing an issue for getting the configuration settings of the package, once it is deployed and executed from SQL Server agent.

The package uses two configuration types: (listed bellow in the order they are appeared in the configuration editor)

Config1 - Xml configuration file - for storing the database connection string.
Config2 - SQL Server - for storing some user defined variables. It uses the same database as specified in Config1.
Everything works fine and the package uses the database configuration values as defined in Config2, if I execute it from Visual Studio,


However, the package doesn€™t get the configuration settings from the database when I try to execute it as a SQL Agent job.
There aren€™t any errors and the package executes all tasks successfully, using the connection object Config1 (the same we use to get the config parameters from the database) and the default values of the user defined variables.
It works ok, if I change Config2 to be of type XML configuration file.

There could be two problems:
1. SQL server agent doesn€™t read the configuration from the database and I am not quite sure how to set this. In Agent/ Job step properties screen/ Configurations tab I can only browse for a config file. I can also use the command window and /CONFIGFILE option to specify xml file, but how to use it in a case of a database configuration? Is there a /CONFIGDATABSE option or /CONFIGFILE works with database connection as well. I tried with /CONFIGFILE and database connection, but it doesn€™t seem to work.


2. SQL server agent doesn€™t get the configurations in the specified order. In my case,
it could try to read Config2 first, but at that moment it doesn€™t have the database connection from Config1 and it fails. Again, I am not sure how to set the sequence.


Thanks in advance for your comments.IT

Question About - Encrypted SQL Server SSIS Configurations

Feb 22, 2008



I tried to follow this link last night (http://curionorg.blogspot.com/) but when i try to configure my package configuration to use sqlserver i recieved the following error message:

The Table "[dbo].[ssisencryptedconfiguration]" cannot be used as a source for SQL Server configurations. The column "ConfiguredVaue" does not have the expected data type.


consult books online for the schema requirements

I followed the blog line by line. i have closed down my project and created a new test package, new project, still the same error. Its there a property somewhere that needs to be configured to allow package configuration to use encryption with sqlserver? I'm running sql 2005 w/sp2. Its there a hotfix that i'm missing. i have not been able to google an answer.

I have been able to successfully use sqlserver as my package configuration. I wanted to see if i could use the encryption code posted on the blog above. i have seen folks reference it or point other folks to it to use for encypting sqlserver package configurations, i just wondered if they have had the same problem.

thanks

SSIS Package Configurations Stored In SQL Server Table

Jan 26, 2006

I have two SSIS projects each with different packages. I have setup the packages with configurations stored in a SQL Server table in MSDB. When I create the configuration on the second project it overwrites all of the first projects configurations. Is there a way to to get two different project configurations stored in the same SQL Server table? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Connection Passwords With And Without SSIS Package Configurations - Password Not Sticking

May 8, 2008

I'm learning SSIS, and just started to use SSIS Package Configurations. I want to be able to switch between a dev and prod instance of our database.

I did not specify the password in the Configuration file (XML), figuring it would get it from the package itself. (That will be the same between dev and prod). But once I set up to use the Configuration, I started to get a "Login failed..." message. I added the password to the configuration, and it's the same. I quit using the configuration file at all, and then it works again.

This may be related, but when I show the properties on my connection, it shows stars for the password. When I go to the editor, the password field is blank, and if I test the connection, it fails. I type in the password, and then the connection works. I have the "Save my password" checked, but every time I go back, the password is blank. In fact, if I type in the password for the connection in the editor, and then go to the "All" page, the password is blank. It may be a red herring, but it sure looks like it's not really storing the password, and thus the Configuration file can't connect when it tries to get it. I can type in the password, test the connection (it works), close the editor dialog, open the editor dialog, test the connection again, and since the password is now blank, the connection fails.

What do I have to do to make that password actually stick!?

Without the Configuration file, when I save the package to SQLServer, it will run as a job, in spite of the password appearing to not stick. With the configuration file, it's not even running while still in Studio.

Here are at least some of the version information, which may or may not be useful.

Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
Version 8.0.50727.42
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 2.0.50727

Installed Edition: Professional

Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services Designer
Version 9.00.3042.00

Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Designer
Version 9.00.3042.00

Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Designers
Version 9.00.3042.00

SQL Prompt 3.5

SSIS Deployment Utility - Package Configurations Doesnt Show Up??

Jan 24, 2007

Hi:

After moving my deployment folder to the Target Server, I run the Installation Wizard. As I move next, I am missing the window which is supposed to allow me to set package config values as stated in MSDN:

"If the package includes configurations, you can edit updatable configurations by updating values in the Value list on the Configure Packages page."

Source: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141802.aspx

Does anyone know why I am not seeing it? In my deployment bundle which I have moved over has currently 3 files:

1) SSIS Deployment Manifest

2) SSIS Package

3) SSIS Config File

Again, I double click on SSIS Deployment Manifest, and it starts fine. I go thru the steps for File System Deployment, and then it prompts for installation folder path. After that, it takes me directly to validation. Why is it not showing me the Configure Packages Page as described in the MSDN Documentation. Please advise. Thanks.

SSIS Basics Working With The IDE

Is the intent of Microsoft to enforce a vertical presentation of the SSIS Control Flow, Data Flow etc?

Is there away to connect from the lower center anchor point to the side of the next object in the flow? For some reason, I can't get a similiar look to DTS 2000 environment (going from the bottom middle of the object to the side anchor pint (small box) symbol to the left. It wants to anchor on the bottom right, left, or middle, if going horizontally. I must be missing something, here??

Cannot Setup A Working SSIS To Run As A Job

Nov 23, 2007

Hi All,

This may be a question for multiple forums but here it goes.

I have a large SSIS package that works great in Visula Studio (BIDS) and in SQL Server under MSDB folder. The properties are all set to save with a sql server authentication package password and that works great too. The problem occurs when I try to use this package in a schedule. I get an error about an OLB DB not working. I've tried many things and figured out that all the OLB DBs do not work in this package but only error as a STEP in a schedule.

They all reference a Client Access ODBC connection - which is a connection to an AS400 IBM machine. The actual error is pasted below, where I guess the root of the problem is a incorrect password. The password is fine and I have proven that by running the package successfully under the MSDB folder of Stored Packages under Integration Service.

Create Reporting Instance From Prod

Apr 25, 2008

Hi all,

I've got two SQL Server 2000 (SP ??) instances (on two separate machines; Win Server 2003 Standard) that I've inherited. I want to use one of them as a reporting instance of production for a single ~4GB database, updated nightly.

In other DBMS's I'd set up log shipping or a simple dump-and-load to keep the two in sync, but I'm not very familiar with SQL 2000 (I used to admin a SQL Server 7 back-in-the-day but have been on Sybase ASE, MySQL (blech) and 'Orable since).

Any suggestions to do this easily and (fairly) painlessly?

Would I want to set up replication between the two? If so, which flavor?
-- To me, this seems a bit overkill. Plus I hate to muck with production unless I really need to

Would I use DTS to do this?
-- Seems straightforward but as I understand it, DTS under-the-covers is a bcp-type process, which can be fairly slow.

Or a simple dump-and-load (with copy)?
-- This seems the best option as we're already doing a nightly dump. However, the data will have to be shuffled off to the other server (or some sort of network share set up that it can access) and then a script fired off when the dump is complete. This seems the most "brittle" of the three options (if the dump hasn't finished yet, then the script copy and import will fail, etc.)

Surely this has been done over and over again (searching the archives didn't tell me anything, but the site search tool isn't that great).

Thanks!!

A Good Way To Use One Package In Dev And Prod - Best Practices

May 5, 2008

We have two different SQLServer 2005 databases, one for development and one for prod. I'm pretty new to DTS, and even newer to SSIS, and am working on converting a bunch of DTSs to SSIS.

Our DTS packages essentially were duplicated and edited for production because of the different server names, and some different directory names for sources and destinations. So the dev package would connect to the DBDEV database, and the prod to DBPROD, for example. When I create a package in dev and then copy it to prod, I have to go in and change all of the connections to now point to prod. There are also global variables pointing to various directories that need to be modified. Worse yet, there are also variables to directories set in ActiveX Script Tasks (which are deprecated and so need to be replaced). This is kludgy and error prone. So, since I'm learning SSIS and converting the packages, I would like to make them better.

What is a good way to specify the connections in a dynamic way? That way, when the packages are moved from dev to prod, the prod database can just be specified in one place. In other words, what are some best practices that I should know about? I'm reading this forum, and checking out links I find therein, but I also do better with specific examples (because I am so new to this).

Thank you for any guidance you can provide.

Opinnion Requested - Dif Edition Of SQL For Dev Vs. Prod

Feb 13, 2008

For critical systems running SQL 2000 I've always believed the development, QA and production instances should all be the same edition of SQL Server. I didn't want to take a chance of something performing differently in development then in QA and production due to dev being Standard Edition and QA and production being Enterprise Edition.


For SQL Server 2005 would you agree with this approach? I'm only referring to critical systems. Non-critical I am willing to take the chance.


What are your thoughts?

Looking For Some General Feedback On Working With SQL, SSIS And SAP

Jun 14, 2007

This is less of a specific question and more of a request for for some advice as to possibilities and directions. Here's the current situation. My company is using SAP for its purchasing, inventory, etc. This system is pretty much opaque to me - it's managed by another group within the company, and changes to it go through a complicated approval process. At the same time, the majority of our users, internal and external, are looking at this same data through a more accesible and more user friendly collection of web applications - done in classic ASP, up through ASP.NET 1.1 and 2 - and stored in an assortment of MS-SQL 2000 databases. Data is exchanged between SQL and SAP via DTS packages, some nightly, some run more frequently.



There's some issues here - data is never quite synchronized between the two sides, sometimes the same data must be updated twice, leading to possible data integrity issues, etc. Given that, we're going to be moving to SQL 2005 within the next year or so. From everything I've understood, within that context, there are vastly better ways of dealing with out situation than the way we're currently doing it.



So what I'm looking for is just a general impression of what can be done, with SSIS and SAP. Any approaches that might prove more fruitful, an y pitfalls to watch out for, that sort of thing.

My package gets successfully execute but data is not getting inserted in the table used in Event Handler. I have also tried OnError, OnPackageFailer etc... but no results. Please guide.
