My current environment has multiple packages stored in SQL server (MSDB).
When working on a set of packages I want to bring them into my local development area
Add existing package only allows you to pull one package at a time - anyone have the secret to selecting multiples
Thanks
I've run into a problem with SSIS packages wherein tasks that write or copy files, or create or delete directories, quit execution without any hint of an error nor a failure message, when called from an ASP.NET 2.0 application running on any other machine than the one where the package was created from. By all indications it appeared to be an identity/permissions problem.
Our application involves a separate web server and database server. Both have SQL Server 2005 installed, but the application server originally only had Integration services. The packages are file system-deployed on the application server, and are called using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime methods. For all packages that involve file system tasks, the above problem occurs.
When the above packages are run using the command prompt (either DTEXEC or DTEXECUI) the packages execute just fine. This is expected since we are using an administrative account. However when a ShellExecute of the same command is called from ASP.NET, the same problem occurs.
I've tried giving administrative permissions to the ASPNET worker process user to no avail.
I have likewise attempted to use the SQL Server Agent job approach but that approach might not be acceptable for our clients since it means installing SQL Server 2005 Database services on the application server.
I have read the relevant threads in this forum, namely http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1044739&SiteID=1 and http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=927084&SiteID=1 but failed to find any solution appropriate for our set up.
Anybody got any idea on how to go about this?
We manage some SSIS servers, which has only SSIS and SSIS tools installed on them and not the sql server DB.
SSIS packages and configuration files are deployed on a NAS. We run the SSIS packages through DTEXEC by logging in to the server.
We want to allow developers to run their packages on their own on the server, but at the same time we dont want to give them physical access on the server i.e we do not want to add them into RDP users list on server properties. We want them to allow running their packages remotely on the server.
One way We could think of is by using powershell remoting and we are working on that. But is there any other way or any tool already present for the same.
HI, we are beginning a new project at my company and I was wondering where is the best place to save SSIS packages: file system or SqlServer. I have used other ETL products and they always create a repository on an RDBMS. Since SSIS offers us the choice of DB storage or file system, is there pros and cons of both approach? Will the deployment of our application be simpler by using Sql Server since we would onky move metadata instead of files?
Thank you for your help,

I have around 500 packages (SQL 2005) deployed in file system & all this packages are running on daily basis via SQL agent. Now I need to migrated all 500 packages into SQL server 2008 R2.
There is no inventory to track which package belogs to which team and any other information.
Now, I need a method to query the pakages connection string details with database respective. Is there any method?
Hi,
I am using custom dll in script component in SSIS package. This dll is looking for some configuration settings and dsplays the message as "Configuration section could not be found in the configuration source" . Please tell me the configuration source it looks for.
I would like to use one configuration file for multiple SSIS packages. How I want to do this is to save the connection string of my production server with the initial database field excluded and set that per package file. I am able to read in the configuration file into 2 different packages without issue but I cannot see how to extract the connection string into a ODBC Database Connection object in order to set the initial database. Is there some way I am not thinking of to do this, either through the designer or programatically?
Thanks for any help you all can provide! I am so n00b to SSIS.
Hi,
At just the point at which I was going to write some verbose schpeel, I found this, which really does it all for me:

Basically it seems that whilst you can indeed share a config file, it doesn't aggregate sets of say different connection managers, into a superset - you choose to reuse, but it actually overwrites. Any ideas, anyone??
All,
I have several packages that all use the same DTSConfig file to map the OLEDB connections. This works fine in the development environment, however when i run a rebuild with Deployment set to true i get the error
Error 75
System.ApplicationException: Could not copy file "C:Dev_TFSTowergateTowergate.BdwTowergate.Bdw.Ssis.TransformPackagePath.dtsConfig" to the deployment utility output directory "C:Dev_TFSTowergateTowergate.BdwTowergate.Bdw.Ssis.TransforminDeployment". ---> System.IO.IOException: The file 'C:Dev_TFSTowergateTowergate.BdwTowergate.Bdw.Ssis.TransforminDeploymentPackagePath.dtsConfig' already exists.

The DTSConfig file is included in the project under Misc in the development studio as all developers need to have access to the same config file.
The net result is that the MSI deployment package doesnt get built so we cannot do an automated delivery of the data.
Is there a work round or a setting that i can implement to remove the error?
TIA
I have a question regarding Raw Files. I am breaking a large package into more modular components for better processing and debugging.
The process will start with a preparatory dataflow that will create a Raw File(s). This Raw File will then be used as the source in possibly 6 data flows and/or packages.
My question is whether 1 Raw File can be read concurrently by the multiple jobs and how this would affect processing. I'm assuming that this would slow processing.
My other option is to Multicast the writing of the Raw File to 5 other versions of the file. All would be identical except for filename. Obviously this would use more disk space but this is not a concern as we have lots of disk space. Our concern is for speedy processing.
If you have experience with Raw Files, please let me know how you approached this issue. As always, blogs and specific examples are always great!
Thanks in advance.
I've read that a single config file can be used across multiple packages, but am unsure if it applies to what I'm trying to achieve. As an example, I have 2 packages, PackageA and PackageB. Each package has a connection manager defined - ManagerA and ManagerB and I want a single package configuration file to contain the connection string for each manager.
I can define the package configuration of PackageA with no problems. I choose XML file, define the filename and add the connection string to the config.
I then open PackageB Package Configuration and point it to the existing config file, IS tells me the file already exists and allows me to choose the option to "Reuse Existing". I then supply a configuration name and the wizard finishes, without letting me expose any properties. At this point, the configuration file still contains config details from PackageA.
If I then choose to Edit the package configuration in PackageB, I get a warning saying the config values in the config file (relating to PackageA) cannot be found, and the wizard continues. The subsequent PackageB properties which I add overwrite the existing PackageA properties.
So it would appear that what I'm trying to do cannot be done, and I need a separate configuration file for each package?
Any ideas much appreciated.

Hi,
I am currently migrating from Oracle to MS SQL Server 2005 using SSIS. Since the new schema being used on the SQL Server is very different, we have created separate packages for each target table.
We have several different sets of data stored as separate Oracle schemas, and I would now like to change to a different schema for the OLE DB Source objects in my packages to use (Table/column names to remain the same). While I can go through all packages and search through the drop-down list to select the table of the same name from other Schema, doing so is an extremely slow process.
Is it possible to use configuration files to set a schema to be used for a number of OLE DB Sources over a number of packages?
At the moment I am doing a find and replace over the .dtsx files, but can't believe I have to resort to this for something that I imagine many people would want to do with SSIS.
Thank you,
The Captain
Hi All,
I am working on a project currently where we have many SSIS packages and we want to minimize the number of config files to be used. What I was thinking was using one master config file which will have Server/Database info which will be used by all the packages. Now the thing is there are multiple packages which are being executed from within a master package and I was wondering if this will be an issue. Is there anything else that I will have to keep in mind? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Hey guys and girls,
This seems like a no brainer, but it's driving me nuts. I want one XML file for the entire solution. There are multiple packages in the solution which have different Connections in the conntion Managers. The packages share some connection names, and some are unique to the package.
Example:
LoadData.dtsx would have a source database connection named (SourceDB_OLEDB) and a oledb connection (DataWarehouse_OLEDB).
LoadDataMart.dtsx would use the same name for the (DataWarehouse_OLEDB) connection and have another oledb connection (DataMart_OLEDB)
I want one XML config file that has all the connection strings, but the problem is that the LoadDataMart.dtsx will throw an error:
Error 1 Error loading LoadDataMart.dtsx: The connection "SourceDB_OLEDB" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found. c:ssisLoadDataMart.dtsx 1 1
Thanks,
James
Suppose 2 environments on a single machine.
Each environment has different configuration settings....different
databases etc.
All the packages in the first environment have a hardcoded config files
referencing the local drive.
In order to create the second environment do I have to
go into each package and manually change the location of the
hardcoded config files. If I don't it will it not use the config files
from the first environment.
Thanks
Can we add multiple log file in existing database?
View 8 Replies View RelatedHi SSIS-fellows!
I am stuch at a problem that sould be very simply but it is not. At least for me
Here is the initial state:
Working folder: E:123DTS and E:DTSArchive
files: akarmi.zip, akarmi2.zip (there are one-one mdb files inside)
What I want to do with the package:
a) unzip the first file (there is an unzip.exe for this task)
b) rename the unzipped mdb (its name can be anything) to default.mdb
c) use the mdb with another package (that is not yet designed so I haven't added this one)
d) delete the default.mdb
e) move the first zip file into E:123DTSArchive
f) do a-e with all other zip files in the folder (so only once more in this case)
What I did:
1) I created a foreachloop container to do these with all the zip files, I correctly configured the enumerator to *.zip and created a user::zip_files variable
2) put an unzip ExecuteProcessTask. Its argument was the user::zip_files variable (this worked great)
3) I created another foreachloop container because I don't know how to rename the only existing mdb file in the folder (I wasn't able to use wildcards here)
3.1) this time the enumerator was *.mdb and the variable was user::mdb_files
3.2) I put a file system task into the container to rename that mdb file to default.mdb. I used variables for source and destination, too. Source variable (SourceRename) was an expression made of WorkingFolder variable (that was E:123DTS) +
user::mdb_files. This supposed to work but didn't When I put the exact name of the mdb instead of the user::mdb_files variable it worked without any problem.
4) another 2 file sytem tasks to move the original zip file into the E:DTSArchive folder and to delete the default.mdb file
5) end of the loop
I had problems with task 3) I even tried to make it run separately but without success
I would think that the solution is very simple. I would be grateful even if someone just send or upload me a package that renames every mdb file in a directory into default.mdb (it might sound stupid but if there is only 1 mdb that's okay and since this container is inside another the other default mdb files can be overwritten after using them in another package).
I've uploaded my packages with the files here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/mrd2jh
I was dealing with this one all day (with some interruptions) and I can't believe it can't be done.
Thanks in advance,

Hi all
Our data management system currently runs DTS packages using DTSPKG.dll.
I am currently looking at the possibliity of replacing the DTS packages and SQL 2000 with DTSX packages using SSIS in SQL 2005.
Do I need a new dll? or will the current dtspkg.dll handle the new DTSX packages?
Many thanks in advance!
Would it be possible to handle multiple file systems (e.g. xlsx, csv, mdb) with different /similar headers in single package without Script Component?

I have created a integration services project on machine A and have added to visual source safe 6.0
When i try to take the project from source safe and store that on a different machine B i have a problem with it....
I check in everything on Machine A
When i try to add on machine B it tries to add it with "Name of package(1)" which means that its adding a copy.But it dosent do for all only for few
Could anyone let me know what the problem is??????

Dear all
I have developed some packages (around 40) on my local system.
now i m trying to move the integration services project on the production server.
when i double click on the intergration services from the local drive of the server all the packages are up(works fine till here)
now i open any of the package-->this is what happens
Prompt1)-->TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
There were errors while the package was being loaded.
The package might be corrupted.
See the Error List for details.
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
i press ok and then the prompt comes
Prompt2-->There were build errors.Do you want to continue with the last build and continue..yes..no..
i click yes ..and then error comes
prompt3-->
Error loading RTS-IMRB-DISTRIBUTION.dtsx: The connection "Excel Connection Manager" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.
and finally the prompt for the OLE DB error
prompt 4-->[OLE DB Destination [14]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "NDELNTX46.IMRB RTS.siddharth" failed with error code 0xC0202009. There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the AcquireConnection method call failed.
Possible work around suggested to me was that in the base system(read local) before exporting go to package properties and the security and set the security as "Encrypt all with password" and also put some Password which i did and it worked for one.
other thing i thought off was creating the configuration file but first i thought of fully running one complete package on the production and then think of the configuration file.
so i went inside the invidual excel connection and pointed it to the correct new file location and also edited the OLE DB database connection and put my user name and password and checked save password and trying to run the entire thing.
but still the same problem..
one more thing i observed was that my OLE DB was going off everytime i am running the package.and i have to enter my password again...so othe save password i guess is not working
I know its a little long post..but i wanted to explain the entire process and problem to all with description.
all suggestions are welcome
Thanks in advance
cheers & Happy new year

I have a rather dumb question, it appears that we can have more than 1 package (.dtsx) in a solution. If I have multiple packages within the same solution, how do I invoke them from the main package in the solution? Thanks in Advance.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm having serious problems with the IDE for SSIS for projects that contain more than 5 packages. Especially if these packages call each other with a run package task thats configured with a file connection. Especially annoying are the 20+ "Document contains one or more extremely long lines of text.." messages that pop up during loading / validating. For my project with around 30 packages it takes me around 10 minutes to click through all these pop ups in addition to the long loading time.
Anyone got any tips on this specifically or how to improve performance in the IDE in general? As it is now, the product is a REAL pain to work with for large projects.
Greetings SSIS friends,
If I have more than one package within one project, how do I select which package I want to run first?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
How do you delete multiple packages at once ?
We have a folder in SSIS called ETL and there are about 25 SSIS packages in it.
Now we need to update it.
I tried to delete the folder but you get the message that the folder is not empty.
So I renamed the folder to ETL_old and my deployement works fine.
But now I want to get rid of all the old folders. Delete a folder didn't work.
Selecting multiple packages doesn't work.
To delete a single one you select the package, right click and select delete, click yes.
But then I have to do it 25 times. I was unable to set a short cut with the keyboard for that action.
Any ideas ?

Hi there :)
I'm in the final stage of my asp.net project and one of the last things I need to do is add the following file information to my SQL server 2000 database when a file is uploaded:
First of all I have a resource table to which I need to add:
- filename
- file_path
- file_size
(the resource_id has a auto increment value)
so that should hopefully be straight forward when the file is uploaded. The next step is to reference the new resource_id in my module_resource table. My module resource table consists of:
- resource_id (foreign key)
- module_id (foreign key)
So, adding the module_id is easy enough as I can just get the value using Request.QueryString["module_id"]. The bit that I am unsure about is how to insert the new resource_id from the resource table into the module_resource table on file upload. How is this done? Using one table would solve the issue but I want one resource to be available to all modules - many to many relationship.
Any ideas?
Many thanks :)
I'm copying files to a folder with the naming convention as follows in the source folder:
CM_ABC_MY_TEST.txt
In the destination folder, this filename needs to appear as:
CM_XYZ_MY_TEST.txt
In my File System Task, I'm pretty sure I'm going to need an expression with a replace, substring, etc. But am having a hard time nailing down the exact syntax.
Hi Guys and Gals. Thanx in advance for any help or input. I have multiple DTS Packages that run each nite on a Server. The packages import data from SQL Tables on another Server. All of a sudden, the Jobs have started failing. There is nothing in the SQL Logs. The DTS Package Logs (that I save to the Server) specify an unspecified DTS error. Any suggestions? Even better - any suggestions what/where to look to find the cause of these errors? I re-run the Jobs in the morning when I get in and they complete without any problems. If you need more information just let me know. Thanx.
