DateTime.Now.ToString() in Script Task

In Script task,
I am trrying to append timestamp to file Name. date format is passed through a variable in Cofig file. (dtFormat='ddMMyyyy_HHmmss').
But I get date in dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss.
Filename+DateTime.now.toString(dtFormat)+fileExtension

Hi FlowerRain,
The issue may be caused by the factor that the package configurations was overwritten by the default package configurations. To narrow down the root cause, set the value of the dtFormat variable to ddMMyyyy_HHmmss, and run the package in BIDS/SSDT to see
if generates the right format.
If the string format displays as expected in BIDS/SSDT, the issue should be that the variable value passed from the XML configurations file was overwritten. Do you directly modify the original XML configurations file or create a new XML file for the package?
If you use SSIS 2008 R2 or older releases and specify a new XML configurations file for the package execution, rename or delete the original XML file and check the issue again.
Besides, you can also use the /SET parameter in the DTExec utility command lines to specify the variable value. The syntax is as follows:
DTEXEC /F "C:\Temp\Package.dtsx" /CONF "C:\Temp\Package1.dtsConfig" /SET \Package.Variables[dtFormat].Value;yyyyMMdd_HHmmss

Is it a bug - SSIS 2012 ReadOnlyVariables in Script Task doesn't work

It's very weird when I use the ReadOnlyVariables in SSIS 2012 Script Task, it doesn't work at all!!! And I never notice this change before, but everything in 2008 R2 is fine! Is it a bug in SSIS 2012 ?
All the variables I set them to "ReadOnlyVariables"
In scripts - I assigned some values from system variables.
String PackageName = Dts.Variables["System::PackageName"].Value.ToString();
DateTime CurrentDate = (DateTime)Dts.Variables["System::StartTime"].Value;
// User Defined Variables
Dts.Variables["User::PV_CURRENT_DATE"].Value = CurrentDate;
Dts.Variables["User::PV_YEAR"].Value = CurrentDate.Year;
Dts.Variables["User::PV_MONTH"].Value = CurrentDate.Month;
Dts.Variables["User::PV_DAY"].Value = CurrentDate.Day;
Dts.Variables["User::PV_PACKAGE_NAME"].Value = PackageName;
Execute the package, it works !
The only thing I can make it as SSIS 2008 R2 does is to change the ReadOnly for each variables.
Then you will get the error.
Why do we need this feature here but not to use the ReadOnlyVariables in script task ?
Please vote if it's helpful and mark it as an answer!

I can reproduce it as well. Feels like a bug...
Locking the variable for read in code has the same effect:
public void Main()
// Lock variable for read
Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead("User::myStringVariable");
// Create a variables 'container' to store variables
Variables vars = null;
// Add variable from the VariableDispenser to the variables 'container'
Dts.VariableDispenser.GetVariables(ref vars);
// Now try giving it a new name
vars["User::myStringVariable"].Value = "new value";
// Release the locks
vars.Unlock();
Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success;

Runtime error Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation" from Script task

I have a SSIS package with a script task, I get
the following error when i try to run it in my local system. It works fine for my collegues as well as in production. However, I am not able to run it locally, to test. I keep a debug point in the main method, but it is never reached, I get the error before
it goes to main method.
I am using VS 2010, .Net framework 4.5.
The script task does compile. I get the following messages SSIS package "..\Test.dtsx" starting. Error: 0x1 at Test: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. Task failed: Test SSIS package "..\Test.dtsx" finished: Success.
The program '[2552] DtsDebugHost.exe: DTS' has exited with code 0 (0x0).

The following is the code:
public void Main()
try
LogMessages("Update Bug package execution started at :: " + DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString());
LogMessages("Loading package configuration values to local variables.");
strDBConn = Dts.Variables["User::DBConnection"] != null ? Dts.Variables["User::DBConnection"].Value.ToString() : string.Empty;
strTPCUrl = Dts.Variables["User::TPCUrl"] != null ? Dts.Variables["User::TPCUrl"].Value.ToString() : string.Empty;
TfsTeamProjectCollection objTPC = new TfsTeamProjectCollection(new Uri(strTPCUrl));
WorkItemStore objWIS = new WorkItemStore(objTPC);
WorkItemCollection objWIC = objWIS.Query("SELECT...");
foreach (WorkItem wi in objWIC)
catch(Exception ex)
When I commented the code from TfsTeamProjectCollection objTPC = new TfsTeamProjectCollection(new Uri(strTPCUrl)); The script executes successfully. However, if i keep TfsTeamProjectCollection objTPC = new TfsTeamProjectCollection(new Uri(strTPCUrl));
and comment the rest, i get the exception.
I do have access to the URL

SSIS Package, Use Datepicker control in VB script task

Dim dateTimePicker1 As New DateTimePicker()
Controls.AddRange(New Control() {dateTimePicker1})
MessageBox.Show(dateTimePicker1.Value.ToString())
dateTimePicker1.Value = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1)
MessageBox.Show(dateTimePicker1.Value.ToString())
In an SSIS package, 2008r2.... I trying to add a messagebox to a script task that contains a datepicker control.
I will pass the date to a variable then stored procedure. The code above almost works except I get "Name Controls not declared". I am using
System.Windows.Forms.
Anyone know how to correct?
Thanks,
MIke

Nope
You cant have forms etc added to script task inside SSIS and make it interactive
If your intention is to pass a value from outside you need to make use of configurations or use command line arguments with utilities like dtexec.

Hi SSISJoost,
I am so glad you responded to this thread. You are absolutely right. I copied the entire code including the project name (guid) and that solved the error problem.
Now, what did you do to get the message box? I added the watch and I could see the values but how do I get these values in a table? If I remember correctly, in your blog, you mentioned something about using derived columns. I am familiar with Derived Columns
but how do I do that? I appreciate your response.
Thank you.
Sanjeev
Sanjeev Jha
I used a second script task to show all variable values. It has a
MessageBox in it and between all
variables I added a
newline to make it more readable...
But with an Execute SQL Task and parameters you can also put these values in a Table... or you can read the file in a Data Flow Task and add those variables (as metadata) to each record with a Derived Column

SQL 2008 R2 - SSIS C# Script Task - Not Setting Variable

OK... I am stumped. I am trying to set the variable "User::TicketDB_Get_SQL" from a Script Task since it is dynamic... and well it isn't working :(
I can see I am supposed to be setting the value, but when I do breaks and watch that variable the new value is not being set. Here is my C# code... Can someone look and see what the heck I might be doing wrong:

Script Task Builds Successfully But Still Has Compile Error (SQL 2012)

This is repost in a way but the problem has not gone away and I really need to find a solution.
I have some script from SSIS 2008 that uses the ReportExecution2005
web service to execute SSRS reports and save the results to Excel. There were some initial problems with confusion between Web Service Reference (legacy?) and Service Reference (WCF) but I think that I have that sorted out
now.
The remaining problem is that, while the VB script (which I have pasted in from a working SSIS 2008 Script Task) builds/complies without error, I get a compile error when I close the Script Task and it has the dreaded "Red X" in the Control
Flow. If I attempt to run the package I get a message box saying that there is a compile error.
How can I identify the problem and fix the error? The script itself has no errors in SSIS 2008.
R Campbell

This is the code by the way (see below) as pasted into the Main sub.
I have added
http://localhost/reportserver/reportexecution2005.asmx as a Web Service
Reference (under the "Advanced" button) not just a Service Reference (WCF).
I can build the code without error but I get an error, saying that there is compile error, when I close the Script Task.
ReportExecutionService definitely shows up in Object Explorer, not the
WCF "equivalent" of ReportExecutionServiceSoapClient.
I have always had the impression, that when you close a Script Task, a compiler kicks in to auto-generate some internal script. Could it be (as seems likely) that this compiler is picking up errors that "Build" doesn't (when the script is open)?
I think that there was once an explicit Compile rather than just Build option in the Script editing environment but I can't find it in SQL 2012 Database Tools (nee BIDS).

Parallel Script Tasks Using Same Connection Manager are Corrupted

We're seeing a bizarre issues in our SSIS package. We are using an HTTP connection manager in multiple script tasks running in parallel and the connections seem to be getting mismatched. Here's the basic flow.
We have 6 containers that run in parallel. Each container does the exact same work (they are copy/pasted) except we change the value of a variable representing the report to generate that is scoped to each container. The container runs a query
(using a SQL connection manager defined in the package designer) and then uses a foreach container to enumerate the rows. The variables inside the foreach container are scoped to it so we don't have a scoping issue. Within the loop we write
the variable values to a log table, use a script task to generate an SSRS report and then write all the data and the report to an external system. Everything is working fine except for the generation of the report.
Within the report script block we acquire a connection to a HTTP connection manager that is defined in the package (just like the SQL connection manager). We then create a new HttpClientConnection with it and update the URL to include the necessary
parameters that SSRS needs to generate the report. We then download the results and return it back to the container. Here's the basic code we use
var httpConn = Dts.Connections["ReportServerUrl"];
var clientConn = new HttpClientConnection(httpConn.AcquireConnection(null));
var uri = new UriBuilder(clientConn.ServerURL) { Query = reportQueryInfo };
clientConn.ServerURL = uri.Uri.ToString();
clientConn.DownloadData();
The issue we are seeing is that when 2 of the scripts run at the same time the ServerURLs are getting cross wired such that we see 2 of the same report being requested rather than 1 of each type that we had requested (based upon the SSRS execution logs).
It's almost like we are getting a shared HTTP client connection. Provided the scripts don't run at the same time everything works correctly. We are confident our variables are set correctly because we are storing them both before and after in external
tables and they are always correct. The URL calculation logic is also correct because this problem only occurs when 2 requests are sent in parallel.
What am I missing here?

Thank you for the feedback. Before I go to Connect I'd like to provide some more info that may provide a better idea of what the problem is.
We broke things down trying to replicate the issue and it isn't a conn mgr problem after all I believe. To clarify our package, we have 4 containers that execute the same logic (they were copy/pasted) except for the variable values that we set. The
containers are not linked together so they run in parallel. Each container executes a query using the ADO.NET conn mgr. A foreach loop captures the value for the current row and then calls SSRS using a script block, forwards the report onto an external
resource and then updates a table indicating the row has been processed. The only difference between them is the parameter we pass to the query and the value of the variables (that are scoped to the container or foreach loop).
The problem we have found is that the very first time through the foreach loop ALL containers are using the same row (from the first container's query). Second and subsequent rows are fine. We initially thought the queries were fine because of
our update at the end of the foreach loop but it is now clear that isn't the case.
We saw this problem when we moved our package to production. We went back to Dev and was able to replicate it as well. It happens every time and it is always the same row when given the same input set. We started eliminating containers
and we found it only happens when you get to 3 containers or more. 2 containers had no problems.
I'll try to replicate it on a simpler solution but any thoughts on whether there is a race condition or something in SSIS would be helpful.

Script task fails to send mail to GMAIL

Hi guys ,
I am new here and i am glad i that i am here. I am working in a company as SQL Server developer(T-sql), i am learning SSIS because i wanted to move to data warehousing.
I not familiar and i don't know any thing about C#, but i am learning SSIS on my own.
I tried to send mail to gmail using script task , both sender and receiver with same mail ID using variables which i tried using tutorial i found from the below link.
[quote]http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/85172/Send-Email-from-SSIS-with-option-to-indicate-Email[/quote]
but finally when i execute the task , it returns failure message and email is not sent.

The execution engine calls this method when the task executes.
To access the object model, use the Dts property. Connections, variables, events,
and logging features are available as members of the Dts property as shown in the following examples.
To reference a variable, call Dts.Variables["MyCaseSensitiveVariableName"].Value;
To post a log entry, call Dts.Log("This is my log text", 999, null);
To fire an event, call Dts.Events.FireInformation(99, "test", "hit the help message", "", 0, true);
To use the connections collection use something like the following:
ConnectionManager cm = Dts.Connections.Add("OLEDB");
cm.ConnectionString = "Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=AdventureWorks;Provider=SQLNCLI10;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;";
Before returning from this method, set the value of Dts.TaskResult to indicate success or failure.

SSIS : Read Rows from an Object variable in SSIS Script Task which is looped many times.

Hello All,
Here is what I am trying to do...
1. I am having two rows, one column in an Object Variable. (vLoopCountObj).
2. I am having 30 Rows, 2 Columns in my second Object Variable (vTableRowsObj)
3. I have a FOR EACH LOOP which will run for number of rows in vLoopCountObj i.e 2 times here.
4. I have a Script Task inside the FOR EACH LOOP to display all the rows of vTableRowsObj.
5. When I execute, 30 Rows gets displayed only once. It will not display when the loop goes for second iteration. Please help me to display for second time.
6. I have used below code to display the rows whithin the script task which is in SSIS dataflow task.

Hi Raj,
It is verrrry interesting issue. I can also confirm that it doesnt loop again. I've made a simple test and figured that in the second loop even you fill the Dataadapter, record count is zero. Which brings me up to the idea: Somehow, after you read the object
variable resultset, you can not read it again in the for each loop.
Strange, probably a bug or a technical issue that is beyond my existing knowledge.
I can provide a workaround. You can also loop in script task for first variable. (Nested loops)
Let other members to examine and comment on this.

How to load data into table Using Script Task

We have a directory/folder where we have a file. We need to insert the File Created Date , File Name , Extension into the database table of Sql server by using Script Task.
So could you please suggest , how to frame the connection string , fetch the file details and insert the data into the database table using Script Task of SSIS 2008

You can achieve it as follows using standard script task
1. Add a ForEachLoop container to point to your directory to iterate though the files. Add a variable of type string inside loop to get file name of each file it iterates. Choose option Filename and extension. Add a variable to just store extension part
(FileExtension), set EValuateAsExpression true for it and give expression as below
SUBSTRING(@[User::FileName],FINDSTRING(@[User::FileName],".",1)+1,LEN(@[User::FileName]))
2. Add a script task inside loop and pass filename variable as a read only variable to it. Crete a new variable to get creationdate and pass it as ReadWrite. Inside write code as below
Public Sub Main()
' Add your code here
Dim f As New System.IO.FileInfo(Dts.Variables("FileName").Value.ToString())
Dts.Variables("FileCreatedDate").Value = f.CreationTime
Dts.TaskResult = ScriptResults.Success
End Sub
3. Add a Exec SQL Task after Script task inside loop and give a query like below
INSERT INTO TableName (FileName,CreatedDate,Extension)
VALUES(?,?,?)
and in parameter tab map the parameter placeholders 0,1 and 2 to @[User::FileName],@[User::FileCreatedDate] & @[User::FileExtension] variables
