Multiple Convert/Dump and Load tasks in a single SSIS package?

I'd appreciate some input. We have a single data file that has about 1,000,000 rows of data spanning 28 time periods in the columns across each row. The file is too large to import at one time, and so we have created 9 different transformation files to pull subsets of the timeperiods using MVAL. The end user does not want to have to break apart the file and/or schedule 9 separate imports to bring this file in each time. So, I've attempted to create a single SSIS package that runs each of the 9 required component imports, but I'm running into the following error any time that I try to run more than one import at once:
An error occurred while running a packageException of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown.
I've tried using a ForEach loop to simply loop through each of the transformation files and run an import for each transformation file it finds. But, I understand that SSIS doesn't release memory until the end of the ForEach loop, which would explain an out of memory issue. I then broke it out and specified 9 distinct Convert task and 9 distinct Dump and Load tasks in the package with an order of Convert 1 --> Dump and Load 1 --> Convert 2 --> Dump and Load 2, etc. This results in the same out of memory issue any time I enable it to run more than 1 convert/dump & load task in the package - they are not running simultaneously, but rather sequentially. I don't understand this. In looking at the logs, it looks like it's creating the temp files for the first import and adding them into BPC, and then creating the temp files for the second import but then fails prior to the second load. This will work for a smaller data file, but shouldn't the memory be released after the task and allow subsequent tasks to complete? Any recommendations on how to address this and automate this load?

Quick update - I created unique ssis packages for the distinct imports and called those packages from within the initial package that is kicked off through Data Manager, and I ran into the same out of memory issue. Any ideas, suggestions, or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Dump and Load Settings error -

Using outlooksoft 5.
I've got an SSIS package that has a dump and load task.
I am getting an error when the task tries to execute.
It looks like it is happening during the cleanup process of the load task since the output looks like this:
Cleanup phase is beginning.
Task failed: <name of dump load task>
Is there something I can look at to determine where exactly the dump and load is failing?
I have placed breakpoints around all the events in the dump and load task...but it is never clear as to what is happening.
I am also getting a lot of 0 byte TMP files that are getting written to the source directory.
Any help would be great.
Thanks

Maybe the error is already in the transformation or conversion files. What happens if you validate your transformation file ith the datafile you are trying to load? Do you get any error in this case when you have the validaterecords option set to yes? Or do you get a correct set of lines in the output file option with the correct dimension structure and the correct dimension members in the rows?
Does it only happens when you choose "Replace and clear" or also if you use the "Merge data values" option?

Multiple data flow and sql tasks in a container - are records available in other tasks before transaction commits?

If I have 3 data flow tasks A > B > C
Then a SQL task that executes a procedure.
Can the procedure refer to records that have been added in one of the previous data flow tasks?
All the tasks are in a container that will commit when its finished, but if its not finished yet, will the SQL task and the procedure be able to refer to any of the records that were loaded?

That depends on how you handle connections. Changes made in a transaction are visible to only the connection that made the changes until the transaction commits or rolls back.

You're right, Arthur. Earlier when I tried running the package with dtexecui it did popup a Win7 firewall warning. Agreed with prompt to allow "SQL Server 2008 Integration Services Package Execution Utility" and it added C:\program
files (x86)\microsoft sql server\110\tools\binn\managementstudio\dtexecui.exe, to allowed programs. No problem with dtexec after that.
Do you know of any other firewall exceptions that would be good to try? Thanks!
Yeah, this pop up resulted in the timeout because it was hidden but awaiting acknowledgement.
The other thing off the top of my head would be the FTP port 21 if TCP is used.

Dump Load Task - Important

Hi,
I need help ASAP.
Can anyone please provide information of how to use the DUMP LOAD TASK.
In my case, data exists in a SAP ERP and I'd like to export this to BPC, the suggestion for making this, is using this task because it will retrieve data from a SQL Table and move it to a SQL proper table in BPC.
The page HELP.SAP.COM provides information but its not clear for me, since it mentions a task called Import SQL, etc... please help !!! I have no idea how to make it work.
Velázquez

Hi Sorin,
Thanks for the response, it is very helpful !!
One more thing, in the beggining I thought this task retrieved data directy from a table and imported it directly in a BPC table (wb, fac2, fact), this without using a flat file... I came up this concept also because the "Import into SQL Server" task was mentioned to work with Dump & Load.
However, you say that I need a flat file (which has the data), a conversion file (to match data between BPC-R3) and the D&L task. This sounds a lot like using normal import packages... so, what is the difference?
At this moment, im thinking of getting the info from R3 in a flat file and use a "normal" import package for BPC.
If I'd like to directly work with data in SQL tables as mentioned before... which task/package is the best for me ? (not using flat files) Or is it always neccesary to use a flat file?
Thanx in advance, really appreciate your help.

SSIS Package Load Failure and is missing Execute SQL Task in Toolbox

Also, BIDS closes after right-clicking the toolbox and selecting “Choose Items”.
I’ve tried several ways to fix these issues with no success.
I’m running SSIS/SSMS/SQL Server 2008 R2 (but not running an SQL instance on my PC) on a Windows XP with Service Pack 3 workstation. I get the following errors:
WHEN OPENING BIDS:
I get 2 errors titled “Package Load Failure”. They both reference ‘Visual Studio Explorers and Designers Package’ as being what failed to load. The first message references GUID 8D8529D3-625D-4496-8354-3DAD630ECC1B. The second references GUID AA612177-A69A-4391-B2F4-17F8A88F4BBA
. They both mention contacting the package vendor, but I haven’t got any Add-ins loaded so I’m not sure what that means exactly. They also both ask if I’d like to skip loading the package in the future.
ONCE BIDS IS OPEN:
No error messages appear here. There is no ‘Execute SQL Task’ in the toolbox for Control Flows. Also, if I attempt to open a project containing this object (Execute SQL Task), I get this error in a modal window:
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
. . . and these errors in the Error List at the bottom of the IDE:

Finally, when I attempt to add the Execute SQL Task via the Tools menu, “Choose Toolbox Items” selection, I do get the tabbed box for adding things. However, they only come up after issuing this error:
The following assemblies are installed SDK assemblies but could not be shown in the customize toolbox dialog because they are missing one or more components. Please make sure that all necessary libraries are available:
Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlCEDest.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.CollectorTasks.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.SQLTask.dll
System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll
Microsoft.Synchronization.Data.SqlServerCe.dll
(above dll repeated at bottom of message)
After this message, I have my choice of .NET Framework Compnents. When I select COM Components, those come up with no problem. The WPF Components tab generates the same dll error above. The Maintenance tab is empty. The SSIS Data Flow Items tab loads fine,
as does the SSIS Control Flow Items tab – but there’s no Execute SQL Task there either.
If you open the toolbox (on a new project, with a project loaded, or without a project loaded) and right-click, then select “Choose Items”, the entire application quickly closes. This “closing behavior” is the same thing you get if you attempt to add toolbox
items through either the Tools menu or the right-click method when you launch BIDS in SafeMode.
In an effort to fix this – I’ve rolled back the .NET Framework version to 3.0 and reinstalled back up to 4; I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled SQL Server 2008 R2 shared services as well as the entire application; I’ve cleared the .tbd files from my user profile;
and I’ve run several things from the command line (devenv.exe /resetuserdata, /setup, /resetskippkgs, etc.). Lastly – I’ve applied every Service Pack and update applicable to my PC (ok, it belongs to my employer – but no one here has been able to figure this
out either).
After having worked this for several days now and, I think, exhausting every available avenue from search engines – I turn to you. Please let me know if you can help. Also, I can provide any additional
files or information you may require.

BI Applications 7.9.6.1 - Few SIL and PLP Tasks stopped in Full data load

Hi All,
I have run full data load for Projects analytics. I have 23 tasks with status "stopped". These are SIL and PLP tasks for Project Facts load. It also contains tasks related to employee dimension and user dimension SCD update
I have checked the staging tables for many of the Facts/Dimensions corresponding to the stopped tasks and they have data.
All my other dimensions have loaded successfully and am able to query them from Answers using the BIA subject areas.
Could any one suggest possible reason for the tasks to be stopped.
Any pointers will be great at this point in time.
Many Thanks,
Kiran
Edited by: Kiran Kudumbur on Nov 30, 2009 4:25 PM

Thanks for that pointer!
Yes I had overlooked one failed task. It was a group task on employee dimension (Index creation on DS table had an error). Fixed that error and ran the failed and stopped tasks again. All working fine now.
Facts have been loaded and dashboards are working pretty fine.
Thanks,
Kiran

Using URLLoader to send and load multiple xml nodes

I am trying to use the URLLoader class to send and load
multiple chunks of xml to a php script. Essentially I have the
following bit of XML:
<pages>
<page>page children here</page>
<page>more page children here</page>
<page>even more page children here</page>
</pages>
I'm using e4x to loop through the XML and isolate each page
node. I then want to send each node to a php script to be written
to a .xml file on the server.
I've tried inserting the URLLoader.load method within the
loop but it only sends the last iteration. Do I have to create a
new URLLoader instance for each iteration and if so is there a way
to dynamically set the instance names?
I'm new to 3.0 and have had success doing this in 2.0. I
mostly want to get it right and in good form.
Thanks for any help!

The URLLoader class allows you to send and load data in the
same pass. As help suggests...sendToURL Sends a URL request to a
server, but ignores any response. To examine the server response,
use the URLLoader.load() method instead. The send and load works
fine, my issue is with needing to send multiple xml chunks using a
loop.
Here's the basics of the code I'm using. I was thinking that
the try{....} section could be put in a loop attempting to send
multiple items to the PHP page but only the last iteration is
actually sent. I know I'm making a fundamental error here but need
direction.
var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
urlLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
urlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, handleComplete);
urlLoader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,
ioErrorHandler);
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
variables.xml = "<some_node>some
child</some_node>";
var request:URLRequest = new
URLRequest("sendAndLoadXML.php");
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
request.data = variables;
for each(blah){
try {
sendToURL(request);
} catch (error:Error) {
trace(\n***\nUnable to load requested document." + error);
}

I keep multiple windows opened and minimized. Sometimes when I click on the task bar to Restore, it apparently "disappears" out of view past the upper left corner. From then on, it can only be seen by using Maximize. What can be done to move it back?

I keep multiple windows opened and minimized. Sometimes when I click on the task bar to restore one, it apparently "disappears" out of view beyond the upper left corner of the screen. From then on, it can only be seen by using Maximize in the task bar. When Restore/Move/Size are clicked, the pointer just goes to the upper left corner of the screen with all combinations of clicking/dragging having no success. What causes this, and what can be done to move it back?

If a window disappear then using the system menu can make it reappear or make it possible to move that window in view. I don't know what causes it to make the window disappear in your case if it does work correctly if you start Firefox.
You can check the browser.link.open_newwindow prefs on the about:config page if you want to open all links in tabs in the current window.

I went through my e-mails and took out a lot of ones that looked like junk, then went to upload my Facebook page, and I got an error message about your box was full, so i emptied the cache. Tried to restart and got a crash dump and had to shut it off to restart. It restarts in the large format, so you have to restart again, and it crash dumped when it tried to run. Not sure but this OTshot keeps coming on and didn't know how to fix it when it pops up as my page tries to start! This causes error messages and my Flash Player error about not loading or accessing properly!
