Best practice with respect to wcf configuration files for SSIS

So after reading a lot of posts and blogs on how to configure SSIS to read from configuration files , I am still not clear and would like any expert to provide a definitive stance. In my case the WCF service consumption is wrapped into a separate assembly.
I am referencing the assembly in an embedded C# script within my SSIS package.
When I make the helper class call to the webservice , I get the endpoint not found WCF exception.
Keep in mind I am running this from VS 2012 IDE and did the following to make sure the WCF call works:
1. Googled and found that you need to have config entries in DtsDebugHost.exe.config file. But it still did not work
2. Had the same entries in the associated app.config file for C# script but it still did not work.
It seems like SSIS is very fragile w.r.t consuming WCF entires in a config file. Is the best practice to just have the end point created in code and externalize the end point as a SSIS variable / xml file or is there really a way to get these config files working.
Attached is the wcf snippet of my config file.
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="ITransactionProcessor">
<security mode="TransportWithMessageCredential" />
</binding>
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="https://ics2wstest.ic3.com/commerce/1.x/transactionProcessor" binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="ITransactionProcessor" contract="CyberSource.ITransactionProcessor" name="portXML" />
</client>
</system.serviceModel>

I have the code working without use of config files. I am just disappointed that it is not working using the configuration files. That was one of the primary intents of my code re-factoring. 
 Katherine
Xiong , If you are proposing this as an answer then does this imply that Microsoft's stance is not to use configuration files with SSIS?? Please answer.

  • What is "best practice" to set up and configure a Mac Mini server with dual 1 TB drives, using RAID 1?

    I have been handed a new, out of the box, Mac Mini server.  Has two 1 TB drives in it.  Contractor suggested RAID 1 for the set up.  I have done some research
    and found out that in creating the software RAID, this takes away the recovery partition, so I have been reading up on how to create a recovery "disk" using a thumb drive.  this part of the operation I am comfortable with, but there are other issues/concerns that I have.
    Basically, what is the "best practice" to setup the Mini, configure the RAID and then start the server.  I am assuming the steps would be something like this:
    1) start up the Mini and run through the normal Maverick setup/config - keep it plain and vanilla
    2) grab a copy of the Server app and store it offline in a safe place
    3) perform the RAID configuration / reinstall of OS X Maverick using the recovery tools
    4) copy down and start the server app
    This might be considered a very simplified version of this article (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4886 - Mac mini server (Late 2012 and Mid 2011): How to install OS X Server on a software RAID volume), with the biggest difference being I grab a copy of the Server App off of the mini before I reinstall, since I did not purchase it from the App store, but rather it came with the mini.
    Is there a best practice /  how-to tutorial somewhere that I can follow/learn from? Am I on the right track or headed for a train wreck?
    thanks in advance

    I think this article will answer your question. Hope this helps: http://wisebyte.blogspot.com/2014/01/best-configuration-for-mac-mini-server.html

  • MMO best practice. Download music and heavy files to users hard disk?

    MMO best practice. Download music and heavy files to users hard disk?
    I have just downloaded a Hello Kitty MMO app for research (for my kid of course).
    I am developping my English teaching app with LOADS of classical music, mp3 sentences and heavy background bgs. Would the best idea be for client to download these to their hardisk ie I would not need to stream them and therefore save a fortune on bandwidth charges from my ISP???
    Cheers

    I see what you mean ie: they have to get the file to their computer one way or another BUT
    a. If they are going to repeatedly use that file ie: a custom cursor or classical piece of music every week when they log on then it would be better for them to have it on their hardisk wouldn't it? If not, they would have to download it every time they log on. I take it that's why the hello kitty site makes you download 130 megas so you have everything on your hardisk, ie: you will be reusing all those assets MANY times in the future. The experience wil be very FAST as you have it on your local disk and needn't have to wait for streaming.

  • How can I Create a Client Configuration File for RemoteApp and Desktop Connection with Server 2012?

    I have a working RDS RemoteApp site and looking to test out the feature in Windows 7 Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\RemoteApp and Desktop Connections
    I came across this link: Create a Client Configuration File for RemoteApp and Desktop Connection and I believe this is what I need to do first, but these instructions are for

    Any suggestions or tips on how I can begin testing this with Server 2012?

    Hi,
    You can manually enter the path to the 2012 feed and it will connect and download the RemoteApps and Desktop connections.
    If you need a sample .wcx file I have posted one here a couple of times.  If you want I will look for it and post a link.
    -TP
    I tried adding my URL's below, these are sample links that work for me right now for when I log into the web page, but neither of these work.  And I'm not sure what I would need to do with or how to create a .wcx file.

  • Metagen is skipped sometimes complaining because all output files are up-to-date with respect to the input files

    Hi,
    In one of my dll (VS2010), the process Skipping target "MetaGen" because all output files are up-to-date with respect to the input files.
    it is at  random.  I have checked the time stamps of the dll and metagen.write.1.tlog both having the time stamp on the failed build.  But all files in release folder did not have the same time.  They are one hour earlier than the dll
    and the  metagen.write.1.tlog.
    On the good build  it said the input file is is newer than output file ".\Release\\metagen.write.1.tlog" and allfiles in the release folder have same time stamp.
    Any clue to solve this ?

  • Configuration file in ssis

    Can I have one configuration file for all the packages I have created, So that changing server name will change all packages server names?

    Thanks,

    Config file has to be deployed separately. You can share config files across packages so far as connections/ items are all similar. While using config files its best to use indirect configuration so as to determine file location dynamically at runtime

  • How to create multiple pof configuration files for c# client

    Is there a way to have multiple pof files for c# coherence client?
    Can I create a file called my-pof-config.xml with the following line...
    <pof-config xmlns="http://schemas.tangosol.com/pof">
    <user-type-list>
    <include>assembly://Coherence/Tangosol.Config/coherence-pof-config.xml</include>
         <include>file://pof-config.xml</include>
    and here is what pof-config.xml file look like
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <pof-config xmlns="http://schemas.tangosol.com/pof">
    <user-type-list>
    In my C# visual studio project, this is where I load my-pof-config.xml in app.config
    <coherence>
    <cache-factory-config>coherence.xml</cache-factory-config>
    <cache-config>coherence-cache-config.xml</cache-config>
    <pof-config>my-pof-config.xml</pof-config>
    </coherence>
    and this is what I saw in the log...
    2012-02-23 14:35:35,529 DEBUG Coherence (null) - 2012-02-23 14:35:35.529 level(thread=System.Threading.Thread): Loaded POF configuration from "FileResource(Uri = file://my-pof-config.xml, AbsolutePath = D:\worktrees\ads\mainline\v2\ads\demos_cs\build\my-pof-config.xml)"

    I don't see pof-config.xml is loaded at "Loaded included POF configuration....". How do I get around it so I can load multiple pof configuration files for c# client?

    Hi,
    Not sure about C# but I would suggest try removing file:// from
    <include>file://pof-config.xml</include>and keep pof-config.xml and my-pof-config.xml in the same directory.
    Hope this helps!

  • Configuration file for servlets

    Hi, everyone
    I have one problem,I can't solve:
    I want write configuration file for several servlets (by incapsulating my static class Config in DBServlet subclass), but I don't know how can I find this config file in runtime( it will be placed, as I think in root documents directory of web-server).
    I can't use no method of DBServlet and HTTPRequest on its initialization phase (suche methods as getServletContext, getServerName, getServerPort and others), so
    I can't get real path of root documents directory of web-server.
    If I will read this file by URL like "localhost/config.cfg" there will be problem in web-server configuration with access permissions, I think.
    Is there some standard ways to find and read in servlet runtime from file , which is placed in root documents directory of web-server.
    Thanks in advance, Ed

    Ed,
    Your configuration file must be in your CLASSPATH.

  • Failed to load the configuration file for the workflow

    Hi experts, yesterday I created and publish custom workflow using SPD from client pc using site administrator account but today its shows error message. I tried creating new test workflows, edit and publish to think it will push a fresh SPD settings
    in working condition and it works pretty right.
    But the thing I noticed after closing SPD Im not able to re-open workflows and it gives the same error message Failed to load the configuration file for the workflow. This issue only happen today since day one  I used SPD and all the time
    Im using the same pc.
    Any ideas will be appreciated.
    Cheers, R2C3 ----------------------------------- starting sharepoint :)

    HI
    Maybe you have permission problem or there is invalid xoml murkup.
    To verify this from SharePoint Designer use the following steps.
    In Office SharePoint Designer, in the folder list, select the plus sign next to Workflows library to expand it
    1.Next select the plus sign of the workflow in question to expand it
    2.Double-click the configuration file (Workflow_name.xoml.wfconfig.xml) to open it
    3.Right-click on the page, and then select Verify well-formed XML
    4.Correct any errors and save the file
    5.Reopen the workflow to test
    Also double check that you are using SPD with the same credentials you created workflow
    Hope this will help.

  • Providing configuration file for SQL 2012 Express installation which installing HPC 2012 R2

    Hi guys,
    I need to know if there is any way to provide configuration file for SQL 2012 Express installation which installing HPC 2012 R2?
    I am scripting installation on HPC 2012 R2 with default SQL 2012 Express edition but I am not able to find any option to provide a configuation file for SQL 2012 Express installaiton.
    Thanks,
    Vivs.

    Hi Vivs,
    As my understanding, you want to generate a configuration file and install SQL Server 2012 express edition using that configuration file.
    If that is the case, firstly, you could generate the configuration file following the steps below since express edition is run in AutoAdvance mode which skips "Ready to Install" page.
    1.Double-click SQL Server installation file in your local drive, you will see that the file will be extracted to a temporary folder. Please make a note of what directory it is extracted to. For example, it could be in c:\ followed by a folder name which
    will be a set of random letters and numbers "gy7h8hjhhj67rfs7".
    2.Cancel installation. Then click on the Start button on the task bar, click run, type the command cmd.exe, and go to that directory via cmd.
    3.Execute the following command: setup.exe /ACTION=INSTALL /UIMODE=Normal
    4.Follow the wizard through to the 'Ready to Install' page. The path to the configuration file is specified in the 'Ready to Install' page in the configuration file path section.
    5.Cancel the setup without actually completing the installation, to generate the INI file.
    Secondly, to install SQL Server using Command Prompt, go to the SQL Server installation media root (the temporary folder) from the command prompt and specify the ConfigurationFile.ini as a parameter as shown below.
    Setup.exe /ConfigurationFile=ConfigurationFile.INI
    For more information about the process, please refer to the article:

  • Failed to load configuration file for the workflow

    There are two of us who have full control on our Sharepoint 2013 site. I'm able to create workflows and publish them fine. The other user is able to create workflows, but he gets an error when trying to run them. I  tried opening his workflow and got
    the error "Failed to load configuration file for the workflow."
    Any ideas?

    Hi Carltonw1,
    Based on your description, I recommend to verify the things below:
    Clear the SharePoint Designer cache and then open the workflow.
    Ask the user to open the workflow in SharePoint Designer and check if the workflow contains error.
    Ask the user to create the same workflow and associated with another list to see how it works.
    Check the ULS log for more detailed error message.
    To reproduce this issue, could you please provide the detailed steps in the workflow for further research?
    Thanks,

  • Single XML configuration file for all the SSIS packages(including parent and child packages)

    Hi
    I have some 16 ssis packages. source Db and destination Db for these packages are common. I am calling these child packages in a master package.
    I want to use only one XML config file for this master.
    How do i use same for all child packages?
    and can i do it with parent package variable?

    I created a master package with a variable master, and in value i have entered the configuration file path.
    Hi vjp dinu,
    You should create variables in the parent package to pass values to variables in each child package rather than pass the file path of the XML Configurations file of the parent package.
    As Visakh mentioned, you can achieve your goal by creating corresponding variables in the parent package for each child package, and enable Package Configurations for the parent package so that you can control the values through the XML Configurations file
    for the variables of the parent package.
    Supposing there is a variable FilePath in child package 1, a variable ServerName in child package 2, then, we need to create two variables pFilePath, pServerName in the parent package. After configuring the Parent package variable in each child package (e.g.
    mapping pFilePath to FilePath, pServerName to ServerName), you can enable XML Configurations for the parent package, and expose the value property for both pFilePath and pServerName variables. In this way, you can modify the XML Configurations file of the
    parent package and the specified values will passed to the child packages.

  • What's the best way to master an MPEG 2 file for DVD Studio Pro.

    In version 4.5 of FCP I was able to use QuickTime conversion to encode to MPEG2. Now that option is not there. I hate using compressor 2 to create MPEG 2 because when I do the MPEG 2 files always seem to studder and I don't know why. I shot my project in HDV. It is about 64 minutes long. Any suggestions on the BEST way to master an MPEG 2 file for DVD Studio pro? Thanks in advance!
    Peter
    PS - I'm using FCP 5

    Some people have reported a field reversal problem with HDV to SD DVD encodes. There's an Apple technical document on this issue somewhere, but the problem was supposed to be addressed by a Pro Applications update a couple of years ago... This site might help you get to the bottom of the problem.
