SSIS wait for file to continue

I know this question has been asked a dozen times. How do I get SSIS to wait for the existence of a file before continuing the package.  I know countless people have pointed to FileWatcher Task, unfortunately we are not allowed to install third party
software on client servers/machines.  I've read about doing a loop using script task but also read that doing Thread.Sleep is a horrible idea. My SSIS package extracts data into a text file where it is processed by a program and put into another text
file. I need to wait for that text file to show up before I can continue with my package.  Can someone offer some suggestions?

Have a Windows Service using
FileSystemWatcher to monitor for file arrivals, the very Windows Service will trigger your package upon a file arrival. It is better to actually just record the file in a schedule table to process if you expect a large number of large files to arrive fast,
the package would pick next from the table.

  • At the end of sync itunes hangs with message waiting for files to be transferred....iphone 4s?

    at the end of sync itunes hangs with message waiting for files to be transferred....iphone 4s?-
    and just sits there for an hour or more... sync is not finished, nothing happens... Any ideas?

    I called tech support and they had me schedule a time to walk through the problem with an apple engineer last night.
    They acknowledged that they've been getting calls about this issue but that's all they said.
    Make a long story short there was no solution. I ended up backing up all my info, contacts, notes ect. to the cloud and restoring the iPhone to the factory settings, then I synced back to the cloud but did not restore from a previous back-up just use as a new phone then manually check off the media pictures, music, movies ect.
    It's not the ideal way but it worked for me because I don't have a ton of stuff on the phone and I can even sync wirelessly now where's before I couldn't check that feature on in iTunes because it wouldn't sync.
    One thing since you can't restore from a previous back-up make sure to manually back up your camera roll or turn on photo stream to back up photos to the cloud.
    Hope this helps.

  • Text Entry not waiting for entry before continuing

    Captivate 4
    I'm trying to add a TEB where the user will need to enter the correct text before moving to the next slide.  I would like it to continue as soon as they user types the correct entry.  The problem is that the slide doesn't pause to wait for the entry - it continues to the next slide without anything being typed or a click.  ??
    I have the correct text listed in the 'Correct Entries' box and have it set to 'go to next slide' for 'On success'.  Under 'Options', I have it set to 'Validate User Input'.  I do not have any hint or caption buttons, and I am not showing a 'submit' button.
    Can someone tell me how to get it to pause the training to wait for the user to enter the correct text?
    Screen shots below.
    Thanks in advance,
    D

    Hi there
    Indeed there is!
    You enable the Button in the properties. This will place an associated button next to the field.
    What's that you are asking? You don't want a button?
    Well, nobody said you actually have to SEE the button! Just double-click the button and its properties will show. Choose Transparent Button and configure it so it's invisible. Then you configure the other "1" for the Button press!
    Cheers... Rick

  • Disable external hard drive to prevent waiting for file open

    I have a 1.5TB LaCie external drive I use exclusively for Time Machine. Whenever I try to open a file in Word or other apps, I find I'm waiting for the LaCie drive to spin up before I get a dialog box. I've excluded the drive from Spotlight searches but am wondering if anyone knows of a way to exclude it more broadly so I'm not waiting for it.
    Thanks,
    John

    run the following terminal command. It will rebuild Launch Services database and may fix this issue.

  • Waiting for file redraws after deleting bits of audio

    I keep looking in the prefs for something to alleviate this.
    This being, that if I have a big audio file loaded (hundreds to over a gig in size)
    and as I'm editing it (going along and deleting sections) most of the time I have to wait a while for the darn waveform to redraw itself.
    Sometimes it doesn't do this, less often though, and I'm clueless as to why it behaves this way.
    I used to use Peak on my old OS9 machine and it never did this (probably because it always referenced the actual file)
    Why does STP do this? Is there a way to not get the waveform to redraw whenever I want to delete a bit of audio?
    Thanks

    Gerald,
    your will run into an error during the event afterOpen if there are no documents open and you want to adress the being opened document with
    app.activeDocument.
    You better adress it with
    app.documents[0].
    But - funny - if there is already a document opened, then app.documents[0] won't adress the new document (which is opened and calls the event afterOpen), but the old document which has been active before.
    So you will have to adress the document which gets opened with
    app.documents[-1].
    (excuse my english)

  • Wait for process before continuing script

    Hey there,
    Just been working on this for a bit now in script editor. I'm still really new to the script editor functions, but would like some direction. If automater is a alternative then please help me understand how to make it work with that.
    Otherwise all help is greatly appreciated!
    Goal of the script:
    1) load disk image. (This works)
    2) open application requiring disk image. (This works)
    3) Check to see in app process is running: running --> wait till it is not, when not running --> eject above disk image
    Code:
    tell application "Finder" -- Note when using tell Finder it gives can't get running of process
              if process "App Process" is not running then
                        set bootDisk to name of startup disk
                        set otherDisks to every disk whose (name is not bootDisk) and (name is not "iTunes") and (name is not "Applications") and (name is not "BOOTCAMP")
                        repeat with myDisk in otherDisks
                                  try
      eject myDisk -- When using tell System Events it give Expected end of line but found identifier on line.
                                  end try
                        end repeat
              end if
    end tell
    Another: Oddly the script will run the app, it throws the error while running, but the app still runs. The disk Image is also gone.
    Thanks again for any helpful comments and direction.
    -- Josh

    Okay, Neil and tw^3, thanks you for your help, I got the effect I wanted cleaned up the code a smidge.
    Code:
    tell application "Finder"
              open document file "DiskImage" of folder "GAMES" of disk "Applications"
        delay 2 & close every window
              open application file "App" of folder "Myth2" of folder "GAMES" of disk "Applications"
    end tell
    delay 4.5
    tell application "System Events"
              repeat
                             if not (exists process "process") then
                                            if exists "DiskName" then
                                                           do shell script "hdiutil detach \"/Volumes/DiskName\""
                      error number -128 --
                end if
                             end if
           if exists (process "process") then
           end if
           delay 10
              end repeat
    end tell
    Last little question about what I have, in the if statement checking if the process does not exist anymore, I put quit after the shell script to eject. but it would just hang there. Would it be better to do a repeat while? or would you just user cancel (error -128) the script from executing like I have it.
    -Josh
    EDIT: made it work better, used a repeat while... and moved the if not exists after the repeat...
    repeat while exists "app process"
    end repeat
    if not (exists process "app process")
    ......blah blah code code
    end if

  • Automator: Wait for file

    I'm trying to write an automator workflow, that i can remotely trigger using something like dropbox. What I want is to have it watch a folder, and when it finds a file with a specific file, it moves on in the workflow. I haven't been able to find anything that would wait like this. Does it exist? Thanks

    There are a few solutions to this, you'll need to decide which one meets your needs best.
    First off, your script on Computer B could poll the size of the file, waiting until the file stops increasing in size for a sufficient length of time - long enough for you to assume it's finished copying, at which point you can invoke the rest of your script.
    The other options depends on the ability of Computer A and there are two classic solutions.
    One is to have Computer A write a tempoary lock file (or, conversely, a done file). Your script looks for this file to determine when the file is ready - in the case of a lock file, you create the lock file to indicate that the file is not ready, then write the file, then delete the lock file when it's done. The script on Computer B notices the lock file being deleted and knows the correspoinding real file is ready.
    The variation on this is to have a done file - you write the file to the disk and when its finished you create/update the done file to indicate the new file. Your script feeds off this done file to know when a file is ready.
    Both these options involve the use of temporary semaphore files that signal to computer B when to proceed.
    The other option that doesn't use semaphores is for Computer A to write the file to a temporary subdirectory, rather than the drop folder. It then moves the file to the drop folder when it's ready. In this way the script on computer B doesn't need to worry about how long it takes to generate the file.
    All the latter options involve additional smarts on the source machine A since that's the only one that really knows the state of the file.

  • Why does File Explorer Seem to Wait for End-to-End Confirmation?

    For quite a few versions now, when copying large blocks of files from place to place it seems like Explorer adds an arbitrary delay or maybe waits for confirmation internally that every file has been actually written to the disk before continuing.
    On a modern computer with plenty of RAM for cache and a massively powerful SSD-based I/O system (capable of sustaining gigabytes per second of throughput),
    why should we ever wait for a copy of a few hundred megabytes of files?  Theoretically it should complete in a second or two. 
    In fact, back on XP one could observe exactly the behavior I'm describing - file transfers - especially on hard disk but even over the network - would proceed at a very breakneck pace.
    Yet it's not uncommon to see miniscule transfer speeds while copying groups of files that even the oldest, cheapest hard drive could sustain...
    What's the setting to have Explorer stop waiting and just get on with the copy, filling the cache with the data to be written later?  Some of us don't want to wait that extra minute to get the job done.  I know whomever programmed the cutesy
    little graph wants to make sure we all see it, but...

  • Capture  WAITING FOR DICTIONARY REDO: FILE

    Hi Experts,
    Based on a large transaction, source A1 database archive action was auto switch for redlog files.
    After this event, we destination A2 DB capture get a state---WAITING FOR DICTIONARY REDO: FILE G:\ORACLE\ORADATA\VMSDBSEA\ARCHIVE\ARC10201_0639211808.001.
    we use bi-direction stream at oracle10GR4 in 32 bit windoe 2003.
    I think that is a capture problem in A2 only. last weekend, stream stop capture process due low SGA.
    I restart A2 capture thsi morning.
    What do I need to do? just add a new first SCN or register redo file?
    Please help me in detail.
    I find this case at http://stanford.edu/dept/itss/docs/oracle/10g/server.101/b10727/capture.htm#1006565
    1. A capture process is configured to capture changes to tables.
    2. A database administrator stops the capture process. When the capture process is stopped, it records the SCN of the change it was currently capturing.
    3. User applications continue to make changes to the tables while the capture process is stopped.
    4. The capture process is restarted three hours after it was stopped.
    However, I do not see how to set new SCN for restart capture.
    Thanks,

    The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. This is just a small selection of what's available, you can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    Senuti Mac Only (Currently only the beta version is iPod Touch & iPhone compatible)
    PodView Mac Only
    PodWorks Mac Only
    iPodDisk PPC Mac Only (experimental version available for Intel Macs)
    TuneAid Mac only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac & Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    Floola Mac & Windows
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide

  • [Help]Playing MP3 files with Juk have to wait for 1 hr to hear voice

    I am not sure how long should wait, but difinately longer than 10min. If you are playing a playlist, you have to wait a long time for next song...
    Observations:
    1. You can hear voice after all, that means the hardware and codec is working properly.
    2. You can play the mp3 file with smplayer without difficulty. that means the filesystem/storage hardware should'nt be problematic.
    3. When waiting for playing songs, the CPU usage of Juk is remaining on about 3%. I believe it is a reasonable value and does not indicating any problem of the program.
    Have anybody here got this problem before? Help!

    in case your phonon backend is gstreamer, change it to xine. that's what is recommended by amarok devs.
