HTML generated by Flash failed validation test

Hello guys,
I have created a simple Flash website:
http://www.icebergfilms.com
It's HTML was also created in Flash using Publish Settings. However, when I tried to validate this HTML using online validator, it failed the test:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.icebergfilms.com%2F&charset=%28detect+a utomatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0&No200=1&verbose=1&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.654
I am a complete novice in Flash and in HTML, so could please anyone give me some advise how to fix this?
Thank you so much for your help.

Thank you so much for your response.
I actually did try (with help of some guys from html forum) to use text editor to generate HTML and simply just embed that swf file onto that HTML document.
It works well, but there is one little problem. Very first thing viewer see (after clicking on URL to upload my site) is black background with
white rectangle which is the space where swf movie will appear. It last around 2-3 seconds. Then preloader appears and everything goes normal. But this white empty space before preloader shows up is very weird.
here is that code:

</object>
</div>

</html>
This white space does not happened when using HTML generated by Flash, however, that one on the other hand misses some basic elements.
Should I then maybe just use the code above , delete this BODY sectiont:
<div>
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="IcebergFilms.swf" width="810" height="600">
<param name="movie" value="IcebergFilms.swf">
<param name="play" value="true">
<param name="loop" value="true">
<param name="quality" value="high">
</object>
</div>
and replace it with BODY section from Flash generated HTML?
I apologize for this chaotic post, but I am trying to create the correct code for about 2 weeks now, and I am starting to lose it
Thanks again for your response .... and for your patience.

  • XML Schema Generated By XMLSpy fails validation in JDev 10.1.3.0.4

    Hi gurus,
    I am trying to view an XML schema generated by XMLSpy in JDev 10.1.3.0.4 but got this error:
    Error(6,74): <Line 6, Column 74>: XML-24523: (Error) Invalid value 'simpletypes\AmendmentReasonChargeType.xsd' for attribute: 'schemaLocation'
    Now in the XML schema, there is this line that causes the above error:
    <xs:include schemaLocation="simpletypes\AmendmentReasonChargeType.xsd"/>
    The same XML schema can be opened in Visual Studio 2003 OK. Could anyone help me out here? Thank you!
    Ben

    There is a tool tip that displays over the line that causes the error and this is what it says,
    value of attribute schemaLocation not of anyURI type. The value must be of the following type:
    Type Name: anyURI Primitive Type: anyURI
    What does it mean?
    Thanks

  • Failing "List Services Information" Cluster validation test

    Hi
    I'm building a 2 node Windows 2008 SP2 Cluster. I've setup the SAN Disks, NIcs etc and am running the cluster validation tests. However this always fails on the "List Services Information" Test with the following error statement:
    "An error occurred while executing the test. There was an error getting information about the running services on the nodes. There was an error retrieving information about the Services from node '<Server FQDN>'. Object reference not set to an

    Note: I replaced the actual server fqdn with <Server FQDN>
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I know it is not a SQL cluster but you could still have a try with steps below as a workaround. See:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/953748/en-us
    •For an integrated failover Add-Note setup, run the following command on each node that is being added:
    Setup /SkipRules=Cluster_VerifyForErrors /Action=InstallFailoverCluster
    •For an advanced or enterprise installation, run the following command:
    Setup /SkipRules=Cluster_VerifyForErrors /Action=CompleteFailoverCluster
    •If you receive this validation failure when you add a node to an existing failover installation, run the following command on each node that is being added:
    Setup /SkipRules=Cluster_VerifyForErrors /Action=AddNode

  • File Browse is emptied after failed validation

    Why does the file browse text box get emptied after a failed validation? Is there any way to prevent this?
    To further explain, create a form on a page with two page items, a text box and a file browse item, then put a not null validation on the text box. When you submit the page with a null text box, but with a file selected for the browse button, then validation catches and throws the error message back to the user when the page refreshes. However, the file browse text box is emptied, and the user has to reselect the file before resubmitting the page.
    Is this a bug, or just the way it is supposed to work? Any way around it?
    Thanks,
    Kris

    Hello,
    >> Is this a bug, or just the way it is supposed to work?
    This is not a bug. Actually, it has nothing to do with APEX. The behavior of the file browse item is controlled by the HTML standard, which clears the field for security reasons.
    If you pay close attention to Denes example, you’ll see that even when the validation error page is displayed, the file browse item itself is being cleared. The JavaScript generated file path is the one that retain its value. I don’t have access to Denes code, but I’m assuming that in his uploading procedure he’s using the JavaScript generated path.
    >> Any way around it?
    Where the file browse item is concern, no workaround.
    In your specific case, where the validation you need is “not null”, you can create a JavaScript validation, and fire it before submitting the page (as part of the submit button). That way, the browser will not clear the file browse item, because the page will not be submitted without proper values in your items.

  • 865PE NEO2 FSIR fails memory tests

    This is the second MB that I've had this problem with, so something is causing them to fail.  Here's the story:
    New install, 865PE Neo2 FSIR + P4 2.6GHz 800MHz FSB, 2 x Crucial PC3200 256MB DDR, everything seems ok, XP installs with no problems.
    About a month down the road I'm plagued by sudden reboots, Microsoft Error Reporting says RAM, says to DL and run it's DOS memory check utility.  I get the utility, create bootable CD and run the utility, computer fails all RAM checks.  I pull each RAM stick in turn and re-run the check with each stick separately, still fails all tests.  Shortly after this, the board refuses to POST.  Ship the board back to New Egg for replacement.
    Installed replacement MB with 4 x 256MB Crucial PC3200, Microsoft DOS memory check program passes, no problems.  About 2 weeks later I run into minor instability so I run the same memory check again, the board fails all tests?????  I pull all Crucial memory sticks and put in a test stick of Corsair XMS 3200; same result, failure of all memory tests.
    At this point, WinXP still runs, but this is the same pattern that the other board showed, right until it quit altogether.
    It occurs to me that I DID flash BIOS to 1.9 between the time I first tested the RAM and got a pass and the time I tested and got a failure, could this be a coincidence?  I can't remember if I updated the BIOS on the first board or not, so this may mean nothing.
    System Specs:
    MSI 865PE NEO2 FSIR
    P4 2.6GHz, 800MHz FSB (all defaults, no overclock, Vantec HS)
    Crucial CT3264Z40B.8T PC3200, CL3 256MB (2 Modules)
    Crucial CT3264Z40B.8T2 PC 3200, CL3 256MB (2 Modules)
    (Tested with same results with single Corsair CMX512-3200C2PT 512MB)
    Antex True Power 430W PS
    ATI Radeon 9600 Pro
    All PCI slots open
    Seagate 120GB System drive, 7,200RPM primary master
    IBM 30GB drive, 7,200RPM primary slave
    LiteOn DVD ROM secondary master
    Sony CDRW secondary slave
    2 x IBM 30GB drives on Promise PATA.
    I know I'm probably gonna have to RMA this board, but I'd really like to know what is causing this so I can avoid it next time.
    If anyone has any ideas I'd sure appreciate it.

    --BUT--
    Suspect it is the reallocation for the P4 EE that is the issue.  Reason is that Memtest86 has been running on that box for 9 hours now with NO error.  However, it also shows only 104K of reserved memory.  My other 865 board with onboard RAID (an ASUS P4P800 Deluxe) shows 687K reserved.  So either the ASUS is wasting a lot of space, or the MIS is no longer correctly indicating the amount of memory reserved by the BIOS (including the Promise BIOS) at startup.  Then Microsoft's utility is not correctly scanning.  But Memtest, which probes for the "correct" setting, is.  (The Memtest86 version is 3.0, and the test was done with the Promise enabled and drives attached (so the BIOS loads) and all the other setup was as it would be normally (standard IBOS options, etc.)
    So who's right?  And if MS' tool has the problem, does that indicate Windows XP reads memory the same way?  Hmmm...
    Hmm, I haven't tried reverting BIOS, but I'm typing this on the affected machine (which Memtest 86 says is fine) with only the two RAM chips it likes and so far no problems; I've run PCMark4 and 3DMark4 benchmarks all night and no problems, it was still happily churning away on 3DMark this morning.  I guess either one of the Crucial sticks it doesn't like is bad or Crucial changed something in a revision to the chips it doesn't like.
    Just a FYI, the Crucial sticks it DOESN'T like are CT3264Z40B.8T2
    The sticks it DOES like (at slow or fast performance, forget about turbo or ultra turbo) are CT3264Z40B.8T
    Both pairs are PC3200, CL3, 256MB DIMM's, single sided.
    I think you're right about Microsoft's RAM tester being buggy, I can't believe ANYTHING could run if the RAM was actually giving the errors it shows, EVERY test shows things like "expected result 11111111 actual result ff1e0001"  The Microsoft tester does run fine on the other 5 computers here; a mix of laptops and desktops; none using this board.  It also ran on this board when it was installed, I guess the BIOS upgrade must be the cause.

    Hello.
    I'm having the same problem. It appeared after I made use of many cells (a table of 10x200 cells) with formulas inside them.
    Before that, while I was making my tests and only used a few cells and the .XLF file was 4Mb, I had no problem. Now that the .XLF file is 8Mb I see this error appearing (in Spanish):
    "Error
    Desbordamiento de la función SWF. El archivo SWF generado no funcionará correctamente ya que las dependencias de datos superan los límites de SWF."
    Any idea of how this could be resolved (appart from using less data)?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Opening an HTML popup from Flash, not as tab

    Hi
    I need to open an HTML popup from Flash (using ActionScript in
    Flex 4).
    Thus far I found a solution, and it does work in Safari - a new
    and separate HTML window is popped up (with a new web page).
    private function popUpTheHtmlEditor():void {
      var url:String = "http://www.adobe.com";
      var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
      try {
        navigateToURL(request, '_blank');
      } catch (e:Error) {
        trace("Error occurred!");
    But in (my) Firefox (with my settings), when I click on the Flash
    (Flex) button, the page is being opened in a new tab.
    I need a solution which pops up the HTML page in a new/separate
    window, as far as possible regardless of the browser (and browser
    settings).
    I found an example where a popup is opened from HTML, and it opens a
    separate window (a real popup) in my Firefox:
    http://www.gtalbot.org/FirefoxSection/Popup/PopupAndFirefox.html
    -> "Open a requested popup"
    The JavaScript code seems to be:
      OpenRequestedPopup(this.href, this.target); return false;
    with this function def:
      function OpenRequestedPopup(strUrl, strTarget)
        if (WindowObjectReferenceOfRequestedPopup == null || WindowObjectReferenceOfRequestedPopup.closed)
        WindowObjectReferenceOfRequestedPopup = window.open(strUrl, strTarget, "top=" + windowTop + ",left=" + windowLeft + ",width=" + windowWidth + ",height=" + windowHeight + ",menubar,toolbar,location,resizable,scrollbars,status");
        else
        if(WindowObjectReferenceOfRequestedPopup.focus)
          WindowObjectReferenceOfRequestedPopup.focus();
    How could I call such code from ActionScript? Should this work through
    ExternalInterface? I couldn't even get this to work:
      ExternalInterface.call('alert', 'foo');
    Should I use swfobject.js for embedding the .swf in the HTML wrapper?
    Any other ideas?
    The two files are pasted below.
    Here's the compiler command I'm using:
      mxmlc -output button.swf -target-player 10.0.0 flash_to_editor.mxml
    I'm running the examples locally (as files, not over http). Would it
    help to place the files on a server?

    Hi, 
    Here's a solution.
    1. Make ExternalInterface work when files are loaded as local files: 
    Go to
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l 
    In tab Global Security Settings: Edit Locations -> Add Location ->
    browse to the .swf file, add it. Make sure it's in the list (under the
    Edit Locations drop down, with a green check mark.) 
    Now open the HTML wrapper in a browser (eg Firefox). 
    Now this works (ActionScript): 
    private function popUpTheHtmlEditor():void {
      ExternalInterface.call('alert', 'foo');
    On Windows: perhaps:
    http://techjig.blogspot.com/2008/03/flash-global-security-settings-windows.html
    "In order for external interface functions to be called, you must also
    specify the folder/file where the swf file is located." 
    The above setup isn't necessary when the files are on a server. 
    Also see:

    "Using the ExternalInterface API to access JavaScript" 
    2. Open a real popup: Example: 
    ActionScript: 
    private function popUpSomething():void {
      var editorPathOrUrl:String =
        'wrapper.html';
      var windowName:String =
        "SomeNameSeeDocs";
      var windowFeatures:String =
        "toolbar=yes,menubar=yes,location=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=500,height=700";
      ExternalInterface.call(
        'launch',editorPathOrUrl,windowName,windowFeatures
    JavaScript: 
    function launch(editorPathOrUrl,windowName,windowFeatures) {

  • Can't Create a Data Source - Failed to test connection. [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied

    Hi there,
    I am having a serious issue with The Power BI Data Management Gateway which I am hoping that someone can help me with.
    Basically I am setting a connection between a Power BI demo site and a SQL 2012 Database based on Azure. The Data Management Gateway and is up and running, and Power BI has managed to connect to it successfuly.
    By following the tutorials at
    here I was able to successful create my Data Connection Gateway with a self-signed certificate.
    However, when trying to create the data source I come into problems. The Data Source Manager manages to successfully resolve the hostname, as per the screenshot below:
    Bear in mind that I exposed the require ports in Azure as endpoints and I managed to modify my hosts file on my local machine so I could access the SQL server hosted in Azure using its internal name -- otherwise I would not be able to get this far.
    However the creation of the data source also fails when trying to created it whilst logged in the SQL server in question:
    The Data Source Manager returns the error when using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server:
    Failed to test connection. [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied
    I tried using the SQL Server Native Client 11.0 instead but I also get an error. This time the error is:
    Failed to test connection. Login timeout expiredA network-related or instance-specific error has occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. Server is not found or not accessible. Check if instance name is correct and if SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. For more information see SQL Server Books Online.Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53]. 
    Some considerations
    If I provide an invalid username/password, the Data Source Manager does say that the username and password is incorrect.
    Firewall is turned off in the SQL Server (either way, this error also happens if I try top use the Data Source Manager whilst logged in the SQL Server itself).
    SQL Profiler does not show any attempt of connection.
    The SQL server instance in question is the default one.
    The error happens regardless if I select the option to encrypt connection or not.
    In SQL Configuration manager I can see that all protocols are enabled (TCP/IP, Named Pipes and Shared Memory.
    The Event Viewer does not provide any further errors than the one I have copied in this post.
    I'm at a loss here. Could someone please advise what might I be doing wrong?
    Regards,
    P.

    Here is what I had to do to solve this issue:
    Basically I had to add the MSSQL TCP/IP port as an end-point in Azure. After I did that, then I was able to create the data-source. However, I was only able to authenticate with a SQL account, as any domain account would return me an error saying that the
    domain isn't trusted.
    What puzzles me here is how come the Data Source Manager would inform me that an account username/password was invalid, but it would fail/timeout if I provided valid credentials (!?!?!!?)

  • Embedding HTML in a Flash site

    I'm trying to add the HTML code for a PayPal button to my
    website, but for the life of me, I can't seem to figure out how. Is
    there a way to add HTML to a Flash file, or even to a Flash
    generated button? Am I even making sense? I'm a complete
    programming newb, this website is my first project. Any help anyone
    can offer is greatly appreciated.

    You can set dynamic text fields to render HTML (though only a
    small subset of HTML tags are supported). You could also import the
    button graphics and make te button itself in Flash using a getURL()
    function to call the appropriate page when clicked.
    Hope that helps!

  • Server Crash : ServerIdentity failed validation, downgrading to anonymous

    All,
    Setup is as follows:
    Domain has got an admin server and 2 managed servers.
    Managed Server 1 on Machine 1
    Managed Server 2 on Machine 2
    Following error is continuously thrown in the logs :
    <22-Jul-2010 09:54:45 o'clock> <Error> <Security> <managed1> <ExecuteThread: '2' for queue: 'weblogic.
    socket.Muxer'> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <BEA-090513> <ServerIdentity failed validation, downgrading to anonymous.>
    Can this 090513 error on JMS queue lead to a server crash ?
    I also get the below error
    <ExecuteThread: '2' for queue: 'weblogic.adm
    in.RMI' : Executing(weblogic.management.internal.MBeanHomeImpl)> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <BEA-080003> <RuntimeException thrown by r
    mi server: weblogic.management.internal.MBeanHomeImpl.getMBean(Ljavax.management.ObjectName;)
    java.lang.NullPointerException.
    java.lang.NullPointerException
    at weblogic.management.internal.MBeanHomeImpl.getMBean(MBeanHomeImpl.java:109)
    Regards,
    Rashi

    Does this domain have rmi communication with another weblogic domain? If so this error would normally occur if you have not enabled domain trust between the domains. You can enable domain trust by following the steps in the below link :
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12840_01/wls/docs103/secmanage/domain.html#wp1176064
    Not sure is this alone will crash a server. Is there any other errors in the logs ?

  • Cluster Shared Volume disappeared after taking the volume offline for Validation Tests.

    Hi,
    After an unknown issue with one of our Hyper-V 4 Node cluster running on Server 2008 R2 SP1 with fibre channel NEC D3-10 SAN Storage all our cluster shared volumes were in redirecting mode and I was unable to get them back online. Only after rebooting all
    the nodes one by one the disks came back online. Eventlog messages indicated that I had to test my cluster validation. After shutting down all the virtual machines I set all the cluster shared volumes offline and started the complete validation test. The following
    warnings/errors appeared during the test.
    An error occurred while executing the test.
    An error occurred retrieving the
    disk information for the resource 'VSC2_DATA_H'.
    Element not found (Validate Volume Consistency Test)
    Cluster disk 4 is a Microsoft MPIO based disk
    Cluster disk 4 from node has 4 usable path(s) to storage target
    Cluster disk 4 from node has 4 usable path(s) to storage target
    Cluster disk 4 is not managed by Microsoft MPIO from node
    Cluster disk 4 is not managed by Microsoft MPIO from node (Validate Microsoft MPIO-based disks test)
    SCSI page 83h VPD descriptors for cluster disk 4 and 5 match (Validate SCSI device Vital Product Data (VPD) test)
    After the test the cluster shared volume was disappeared (the resource is online).
    Cluster events that are logged
    Cluster physical disk resource 'DATA_H' cannot be brought online because the associated disk could not be found. The expected signature of the disk was '{d6e6a1e0-161e-4fe2-9ca0-998dc89a6f25}'. If the disk was replaced or restored, in the Failover Cluster
    Manager snap-in, you can use the Repair function (in the properties sheet for the disk) to repair the new or restored disk. If the disk will not be replaced, delete the associated disk resource. (Event 1034)
    Cluster disk resource found the disk identifier to be stale. This may be expected if a restore operation was just performed or if this cluster uses replicated storage. The DiskSignature or DiskUniqueIds property for the disk resource has been corrected.
    (Event 1568)
    In disk management the disk is unallocated, unknown, Reserved. When the resource is on one node and i open disk management i get the warning that i have to initialize the disk. I did not do this yet.
    Reading from other posts i think that the partition table got corrupted but i have no idea how to get it back. I found the following information but it's not enough for me to go ahead with: Using a tool like TestDisk to rewrite the partition table. then
    rewriting the uniqueID to the disk brought everything back. But still no explaination as to why we had our "High Availability" Fail Over cluster down for nearly 2 Days. This happened to us twice within the past week.
    Anybody that an idea how to solve this? I think my data is still intact.
    Thanx for taking the time to read this.
    DJITS.

    Hi,
    Error information you provided indicate disk connection failure issue, please confirm shared disk 4 is available:
    To review hardware, connections, and configuration of a disk in cluster storage:
    On each node in the cluster, open Disk Management (which is in Server Manager under Storage) and see if the disk is visible from one of the nodes (it should be visible from one node but not multiple nodes). If it is visible to
    a node, continue to the next step. If it is not visible from any node, still in Disk Management on a node, right-click any volume, click Properties, and then click the Hardware tab. Click the listed disks or LUNs to see if all expected disks or LUNs appear.
    If they do not, check cables, multi-path software, and the storage device, and correct any issues that are preventing one or more disks or LUNs from appearing. If this corrects the overall problem, skip all the remaining steps and procedures.
    Review the event log for any events that indicate problems with the disk. If an event provides information about the disk signature expected by the cluster, save this information and skip to the last step in this procedure.
    To open the failover cluster snap-in, click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Failover Cluster Management. If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and
    then click Continue.
    In the Failover Cluster Management snap-in, if the cluster you want to manage is not displayed, in the console tree, right-click Failover Cluster Management, click Manage a Cluster, and then select or specify the cluster that
    you want.
    If the console tree is collapsed, expand the tree under the cluster you want to manage, and then click Storage.
    In the center pane, find the disk resource whose configuration you want to check, and record the exact name of the resource for use in a later step.
    Click Start, point to All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
    Type:
    CLUSTER RESOURCE DiskResourceName /PRIV >path\filename.TXT
    For DiskResourceName, type the name of the disk resource, and for path\filename, type a path and a new filename of your choosing.
    Locate the file you created in the previous step and open it. For a master boot record (MBR) disk, look in the file for DiskSignature. For a GPT disk, look in the file for DiskIdGuid.
    Use the software for your storage to determine whether the signature of the disk matches either the DiskSignature or DiskIdGuid for the disk resource. If it does not, use the following procedure to repair the disk configuration.
    For more information please refer to following MS articles:
    Event ID 1034 — Cluster Storage Functionality

  • Failover cluster fails validation after a single node restart

    I had a lab environment setup that works great, passes validation, can do live migrations without issue but as soon as I restarted one of the nodes, the then still live node became the only node able to access the storage backend. What's weird is that the restarted
    node can still access the CSV storage and run VMs off of it, but the validation report is unable to list the actual disks.
    My Cluster consists of 2 nodes. I have an iSCSI backed shared storage server and I can see that both of my nodes
    are connected to the iSCSI targets successfully, but the node I first restarted no longer lists any disks/volumes in disk management and the once available MPIO menus are disabled in the iSCSI control panel. I also tried to restart the second node after the
    first node came back but although the first node was up and running and had VMs on it, restarting the second node brought the entire cluster down. I see event IDs 1177, 1573, and 1069 appear in the Cluster Events log. When the second node came back up, the
    cluster came back with it, but not the storage. Both nodes seem to display similar behavior in that they cannot access the storage backend. Now the storage is inaccessible by both nodes. I was able to get both nodes connected to the storage backend by
    going to the iscsicpl and disconnecting all current connections to the iSCSI backend and adding them back. Doing the test again after bringing the storage back up resulted in the same behavior and this time redoing the iSCSI connections is not helping.
    I think the issue here is that the first node I restarted is unable to see any disks/volumes from the storage backend only after joining the cluster and doing a restart. Before joining the cluster I did reboots on both nodes and both were able to connect to
    the iSCSI backend without issue. It wasn't until after joining the cluster that node 1 became unable to access the storage backend after reboots. The validation report fails with "No disks were found on which to perform cluster validation tests. To correct
    this, review the following possible causes: ..." although none of the suggestions seem applicable and the validation report was successful right before the restart of the node.
    Does anyone have suggestions on how to further troubleshoot or resolve this issue?
    I am using Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 on both nodes and they are joined to the same domain.

    Hi,
    I don’t found the similar issue, please your storage compatible with server 2012R2, Update Network Card Drivers and firmware on both the Nodes, temporarily disable your AV
    soft and firewall install the Recommended hotfixes and updates for Windows Server 2012 R2-based failover clusters update.

    You may want to have a test to change IsRagged="False" to IsRagged="True", then it woks well but the result is very stange.
    And I find if the hierarchy is only with levels: YEAR and Quarter, then you can maintain it, but, for sure, the YEAR2009,QUARTER1 will overwrite YEAR2008,QUARTER1. If defining the hierarchy with levels:YEAR,QUARTER,MONTH, then you can't maintain it. On my opinion, it may because the data in third level MONTH can't identified the right routine to the higher level QUARTER.

  • OLE DB Destination" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_ISBROKEN.

    Hi
    I have a package which has 10 sequence containers. Have 10 Flat File Source files and all is working perfect on BI Debug mode. When I deploy this package to server I am getting the following error.
    I have changed the property Retain the same connection = True but same problem. I have changed the data flow task to Load Project instead of Load Into Project but in error message it is still showing the old name. I have tried to remove the whole step i.e.
    Removed Load into Project Data flow with sequence container but I am getting the same error message. 
    I am not able to understand the reason. Any Idea why am I getting the same error message even I do not have the Data Flow named Load Into Package. It is in SSIS 2008 and being deployed on SQL 2012 server.

    Hi MustafaH,
    According to the error message(hightlight above), it seems it's a mapping issue that Naarasimha point out in the post above. Please check this carefully.
    An OLE DB destination includes mappings between input columns and columns in the destination data source. You do not have to map input columns to all destination columns, but depending on the properties of the destination columns, errors can occur if
    no input columns are mapped to the destination columns.

    In your post, you said that it is in SSIS 2008 and being deployed on SQL 2012 server. Do you mean that you create the package deployment utility by using SSIS 2008, and then implement SSIS deployment in SSIS 2012 environment? If so, you need to
    convert the project to package deployment model to generate Manifest file in SSIS 2012. Please see:
    Use the SQL Server 2008 version of Business Intelligence Development Studio to develop and maintain packages that are based on SQL Server 2008 Integration Services (SSIS)
    Use SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012 to develop and maintain packages that are based on SQL Server 2012 Integration Services (SSIS).
