Is there a good step by step guide to setting up an indirect configuration? I've followed the steps in Kirk Haselden's 'Keep your packages in the dark' article 3 or 4 times this afternoon and nothing seems to work. I cannot even get the XML configuration file to work by accessing it directly. I'm using the wizard to create the file.
Just wondering if there was something else out there....
Thanks in advance for any help.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a package that has multiple data flow tasks. At the end of a task, key data is written into a raw file (file name stored in a variable) that is used as a data source for the next task. Each task requires a success from the preceding task.
Here's the rub:
If I execute the entire package, the results of the package (number of records of certain tasks) differs significantly from when I execute each step in the package in turn (many more records e.g. 5 vs 350).
I get the feeling that the Raw file is read into memory before it is flushed by the previous task, or that the next task begins preparation tasks too early.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am running on Server 2003 64 (although the same thing happens when deployed on a Server 2003 32 machine)

Hi!
I hope the answer is as simple as the question -- but after reading all the documentation I could find (understand?) and a lot of posts here, I'm no closer to achieving the goal.
I have a Visual C# app, DAYTRACKER, developed in VS2005. It uses a database with several tables constructed using SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
I want to deploy the app plus the database plus SQL Express to another machine, to be used by a single user (the administrator) with no need for network connectivity of any kind.
What I have so far is:
1. The application is successfully deployed from a CD-ROM, having used the Publish process within VS2005, and opens on the new machine -- without database connectivity, however.
2. SQL Express is successfully deployed (it deployed as a 'prerequisite' when I went through the Publish process in VS2005)
3. I manually copied the database's .mdf and .mdl files, using SQL Server Managers 'Copy Database' function, then transferred the copies to the new machine into the ..MSSQL.1MSSQLdata folder (where they appear along with the master.mdg, mastlog.ldf etc files)
Now, the DAYTRACKER application's DAYTRACKERConnectionString under 'Settings' in the VS2005 studio reads 'Data Source=DELL3;Initial Catalog=DayTracker;Integrated Security=True' (which are the appropriate parameters for the machine, DELL3, on which I wrote the program.)
The problem, of course, is that SQL Express on the new machine doesn't connect the application to the database. When I go to the 'SQL Server Configuration Manager' and go to the 'SQL Server 2005 Services' and double-click on the 'SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS)' icon (the service is running) and the user is logged on using 'Local System Account'. Under the 'Service' tab the Host Name is 'MUSIC' (which is the name of the new machine I've installed the app onto -- which of course is not the name - DELL3 - that the app's connection string is expecting). Under the 'Advanced' tab, I've tried correcting the name of the Startup Parameters default .mdf and .mdl entries to ..DayTracker.mdf and ..DayTracker_log.mdl, but the server won't start up after I make the changes.
What I'm hoping for: a step-by-step way of doing this type of deployment, preferable getting it all onto one CD-ROM, and installing it on the new machine so that it all works seamlessly from the start, not requiring any 'tweaking' of the SQLServer Express settings by the end-user.
But I'll take pretty much anything that fixes the specific db connectivity problem I've described.
Thank you very much.

Hi,
I have to transport a big database table and can't read it at once with "select * from table" because the table is bigger than my system memory.
Is there a way to read the table step by step? I thought it was possible with ADO and his serverside cursors but I don't now how. I need an "universal" solution that works on SQL Server 2000/2005, MySQL and Oracle.

Connecting to a networked SQL Server Box from my local machine
Open Query Analyzer from Start menu, logging in using sa account.
from the object browser i select my stored procedure (WEA_InsertClaim) - right click and select Debug.
i am prompted to enter the parameter values, which i do, auto rollback checkbox is checked - click Execute.
T-SQL Debugger opens and runs through the stored procedure.
but only buttons enabled are the "Go", "Toggle Breakpoint", "Clear All Breakpoints"
so i can set breakpoints etc. but when i select Go it will not stop at the breakpoints it just runs through the stored procedure from start to finish. giving the correct return code as its output
is there something i need to enable in order to make it stop at breakpoints??

This error pops up right after i change the type of the step to "SQL Server Intergration Services Package"
I have made the following configurations:
The user group (windows group) that the user belongs has the following roles in msdb :
db_dtsadmin
db_dtsltuser
db_dtsoperator
SQLAgentOperatorRole
SQLAgentReaderRole
SQLAgentUserRole
i have made a proxy to sql server agent which has the following subsystems :
"SQL Server Integration Services Provider" the proxy is tied to the same login which has those SQLagent and dts roles in msdb database.
Im using windows authentication and the user that logs into the sql server is in the same group that i have set all of the rights.
Ps. Clearly im missing some role or right somewhere because as soon as i give the group sysadmin role then all the users in that group can create SSIS steps in the agent.
Ps. Ps. I have been living under the impression that i dont have to give sysadmin rights to people that create ssis packages and schedule then with the agent.
Hi--
View 11 Replies View RelatedI am trying to learn Reporting Services using the title "MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services Step by Step" by Stacia Misner and Hitachi Consulting, published in 2006. I am experiencing problems with some of the exercises. I got as far as Chapter 4 when I followed directions to create a SQL statement to define a query string for a dataset. Pg 80:
select * from vProductProfitability
where year = 2003 and
MonthNumberOfYear = 1
The view vProductProfitability does not exist in the tutorial database that came with the book, rs2005sbsDW. The result of this query is the basis for the entire chapter on developing basic reports and I'm being denied a learning opportunity because the view does not exist. In short, I'm stuck.
I have tried to find somewhere at Microsoft to place this question and get some answers so I can continue thru the tutorial. To no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions?
BTW, the solution that came in the CD is also wrong because the query noted above is also in the solution.

Hi,
I have a package that uses a Configuration of type SQL Server where the property values are held.
This runs successfully using this direct configurations.
When I use an Indirect configuration using an environment variable to point to this SQL Server configuration type the package won't even validate.
The Indirect Configuration is:
[EHC-SQLD-01.].[SSISConfigsDEV];[dbo].[SSIS Configurations DEV];pkgLRD CED Import;
which follows the standard of : db connections, config table, filter
This works by the way on my client but on the dev server the error is:
Error: The connection "[EHC-SQLD-01].SSISConfigsDEV" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.
I've tried every combination for the env variable using quotes, full computer name etc (I thought it was the hyphens in the name), but can't seem to get it to work.
I've also tried as both user and system env variables but made no difference (which one should we use for SSIS anyway as BOL doesn't state this ?)
Appreciate any help. I'm trying to deploy this on the Dev server for testing.
Thanks

Dear Experts,
please guide me for replcation.....
i'm using sql server 2005 server tools developer edition. my OS is professional 2000.
and i've sqlserver 2000 client tools also
i've two databases in my machine. publisher is in different instance, and the transactions might be maximum 50 per day. my aim is when ever developer enters the data into the main database, automatically it should be updated on the my two databases also.
i mean the server is sysA and the database is srtp.
my machine is sys20 and the databases are srtp1, srtp2.
how should i make sysA as publisher?
i've right click on the server databases, but it is showing newsubscriptions option only.

I have a series of packages in a project, all have 3-4 configuration files located on my c: drive. I need them to be in a different path on the server. I added another configuration type, but instead of specifying xml file, sql server, etc, I chose the radio button at the bottom that says 'Configuration location is stored in an environment variable'. I created a system variable on my machine, typed it into that box, then saved the configuration. I put the path to my dtsconfig files in that variable. I created the same system variable on the server, called it the same thing, and put the path to my dtsconfig files on the server in that one, but I must be missing something. The packages don't appear to find the config files on the server.
The package configuration organizer has 3 entries of type 'XML Configuration File', followed by one of type 'Indirect XML Configuration File'.
Is that the intent of this - to set a system variable that directs the packages to the appropriate directory where the config files are located? Is there something else I need to do? Does SSIS just 'know' that if there is an indirect config file to use that when looking for dtsconfig files?
Thanks
Hi,
I need to configure my package using SSIS Configurations. When I opened SSIS Configuration wizard, press ADD and selected Xml Configuration, I found two options.
One being : Specify configurations directly.
next : config location is stored in env variable.
How to use the second option?[ env variable]. Say I want to configure my connection string for my destination database [ OLEDB Destination Component]. How to do that using second option.
Thanks
Kishan
Hello,
I have some basic understanding of SSIS and now I am looking to take the next step. Especially since I created all my packages with EncryptWithUserKey (I didn't know better) . My assumption is that I place into each of my packages an identically named Environment Variable. Then if I move my configuration files I just need to reassign the value to that variable. Do I have that correct?
For example, I have an XML Configuration file sitting in c:PackConfigs. It is called MyConfig.dtsConfig. How do I create an Environment Variable to point to this configuration file? I assume I create the variable and assign it the value the path of the file (c:PackConfigsMyConfig.dtsConfig). I sort of get that.
But what if I have multiple XML configuration files in my package? And exactly how do I change the variable's value if I move my packages?
I've read some great posts in this forum and at Jamie Thomson's blog http://blogs.conchango.com/jamiethomson/archive/2005/11/02/SSIS_3A00_-Indirect-configurations-ROCK_2100_.aspx
but I haven't been able to get to the nitty-gritty that I think I need.
Thank you for the help.

I'm having a problem with indirect configurations on my client's machine.
I've created a package that uses an xml configuration file (.dtsconfig file) that is pointed to by an environment variable. I have this package running on my machine using Windows XP and on my test machine that uses Windows Server 2003. When I set it up on my client's test machine also running Windows Server 2003 the package doesn't recognize the configuration and tries to use the values that it was originally programmed with on my development machine.
I installed the packages the same on both test servers including adding the appropriate environment variables. Is it possible there is something wrong with the environment? I haven't checked the various service pack levels on the two machines. I know that I keep my test machine up to date. I'm not sure about my client. Are there any known issues like this under specific service packs? Or am I just probably missing something glaringly obvious?
Thanks,
Jeff
I have a set of packages that use an Indirect Configuration to a XML config that gives each package a connection string to the Configuration database. The configuration database has all the connection strings for every connection I use.
I just moved my dbs to a new server. I updated the XML config file to point to the new server and updated the connections in the configuration table. I am having two problems. When I open packages in BIDS, I am receiving errors because the connection strings embedded in the packages were pointing to the old server. I updated the Data Sources in the solution and that didn't fix it. Why is it not using the configurations?
Also, on the production box (64bit), I am having the same problem. It is not reading in the connections from the new SQL configuration table. All my connections that are producing errors are OLEDB for SQL.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Abe
Is it possible to create an indirect Package Configuration by using the /CONF switch when running a package via dtexec.
Here is what I would like to do:
1. Use an Indirect SQL Server configuration type
2. Instead of storing the connection string in an env. variable, I want to specify it at run time using the /conf switch
In other words, are there any alternatives to storing the configration connection string on the server?
Hi,
View 9 Replies View RelatedGreetings All;
I am having trouble getting an indirect configuration to work. Can someone offer a hand?
Here's the deal....
I have a package the currently has an OLE DB Connection manager. I have an XML configuration file set up to acquire the connection string. That works fine. I have a package variable that contains the absolute path to the .dtsconfig file.
How can I get the connection manager to read the package variable (which has the path to the *.dtsconfig file) instead of the hard coded value?
Thanks in advance.
I am trying to run the code below as a step in a job, but I cannot get this much code in the step. Is there another way of running this code? I tried putting the code inside of an SP, but I got errors there too.

Hi All,
I am executing a stored procedure within a job step. This stored procedure executes the xp_sqlmaint stored procedure with some parameters. I run this job as 'sa'.
The job fails with the following error message:
sqlmaint.exe failed. Step failed.
What could cause this error? Please help. Thanks.
Hello,
I am wondering if anyone else has run into problems step debugging using vs 2005 t-sql stored procedures and functions. I have two issues.
1. sometimes my breakpoinst show up as hollow and the step debugger just runs thought
2. other times, I get in and the step debugger works for 4 -10 steps and then locks up.
Any ideas are appreciated. If there is a better place for me to post this problem, let me know. I have searched the web on this problem extensively and have not found a solution that fixes my issue. I am logged in with sysadmin which is the most common problem I could find online.
Thanks!

This executable functions normally from a command prompt on the server and will initiate properly from a DTS package that is executed locally by a logged in user. It won't run from Query Analyzer, an Operating System Command jobstep, or a scheduled DTS package. The executable creates a report that gets written to disk and a window shows briefly during execution.
MS SQL 2000 on Win2K.
Any clues as to how to run this executable from a scheduled jobstep?
Thanks if you can help,
Mack
Is it possible to set up some kind of error handler in VB using the DTS DOM that will enable a retry of a step/task within a package? This is a DataPump task with a Custom Task. I am transferring 16 tables within each of the packages, 1 package for each of the 50 states, and executing them 1 at a time from a VB app. I can retry a package from the package error handler but can't find an equivalent for a step or task. I'd rather not have to resend tables, but restart from the table with the problem.
It is possible to write code to recreate an abbreviated form of the package but I'd like to avoid that, too.
Better yet, how can I avoid this error even appearing:
"Execution canceled (sic) by user".
I'm not cancelling anything, but about every 4th package this error comes up, not even while transferring the same table. If I retry the package, it almost always flies.
Hi, I've been writing simple database queries for a long time, but I've come to a point where I need to do more work with fewer queries, and I've not been able to make a dent in it. Please excuse my ignorance.
I have a relational database of prices that holds the following info:
Currencies (yen, euro, dollar)
Industries (chemistry, biology, etc)
Company/Institute size (<500, 500-1000, +1000)
Main Products (lab equipment, classroom equipment, etc.)
Series (subproducts) (100ml beaker, chalk, etc)
I want to build a form where my customers can select their currency, their industry and their company size, and then display prices for a specific product (series).
My problem is on the way to the product select. I don't want to display a huge list of EVERYTHING--I want the customer to be able to first select a Main Product, and then populate a list with the relevant sub product for them to select.
However my database is set up with three tables for the individual products: a MainProducts table with main products and ids, a Series table with sub products (we call them series) and ids, and a third table Products that combines the mainproductid with the subproductid to create a unique Productid that is used throughout the rest of the database to get the prices.
(see the relationships here: http://magneticmirror.com/db.gif. The reason for this is that Series in two different MainProducts can have the same name, and so constitute different Products)
The only way I know how to display the name of the relevant series (sub products) is to get the user to:
*select a MainProduct from a list;
*then select all ProductIDs from the the Products table with that MainProductID;
*then for each row from the Products table, take the SeriesID (sub product) and run that against the Series table to get the name of the series corresponding to that ID
if there are 50 series in a product line, that would be 50 individual queries just to populate the list.
There must be a better way. Is this what joining tables is about?
Thanks for any help.
