Run DTSX Package in SQL Server 2012

Hi,
Can I run the DTSX packages( Developed in SQL Server 2008 R2 ) directly in SQL Server 2012 without converting into SSIS . Can anyone tell me the procedures to execute a DTSx packages in SQL server SQL Server 2012 without converting into SSIS.
One Common Parent Package calls all the Child packages. i.e 32 bit on 64 bit
Regards,

If you want to run packages without upgrading you can make use of command line utility like DTExec for executing them.
If you open them in a Integration Services project in 2012 then will automatically upgrade packages to new version.

SSIS Package execution - SQL Server 2012

Hi all
I am attempting to run a deployed package manually (not via a job) through the SSMS 2012 GUI and the error dictates that my Execute Process Task cannot access on of my network drives (\\Share\Directory).
If I run the package through SSDT, it runs fine.
How can I get my package to see the required directory please? It needs read/write permissions.
Thanks.

Hi warnerrj79,
If I understand correctly, you directly execute a package through SSDT, it works fine. When you right-click on a package under Integration Services Catalog \ SSISDB \ <Folder name> \ Projects \ <Project name> \ Packages \ <Package name>
and select Execute... to run a package in SQL Server Management Studio, it fails with the error ”Execute Process Task cannot access on the network drives (\\Share\Directory).”
When we execute a package under Integration Services Catalog, the package will run under the credentials used to connect to SQL Server Management Studio. Please note that we need run the package using Windows Authentication.
As to your issue, please make sure the account connects to SQL Server Management Studio has required permissions to access the shared folder.
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Need to convert DTS packages to SQL Server 2012 environment.

Hi Friends,
As Part of the Project Requirement,we need to convert DTS packages to SQL Server 2012 environment.
Please sugest me best approach.
Thanks

Best approach is to re-design the packages in SSIS 2012 directy if it is feasible. Because most of the DTS feaures are discontinued and also you will have to clean up all errors that you are going to get after migration.
Discontinued Integration Services Functionality in SQL Server 2012
Otherwise you need to migrate it first to 2008R2 and then 2012 version.
Below ones would be helpful for you:

Run sql 2008 ssis package into sql server 2012 machine

Hello,
I have created a ssis package in sql server 2008 and use a job to execute it pointing to databaseA. works fine.
Then, I place that package into a sql server 2012 machine and use a job to execute it in the same database, databaseA.
The error I get is something like:
can not use the old version in the new version machine.
Is this really the case or am I doing something wrong please?

Hi Arkiboys,
Arthur is right that the error occurs because the SSIS 2008 package cannot be upgraded to SSIS 2012 package. When the SSIS 2008 package is called by SSIS 2012 dtexec utility tool, the package will be upgraded temporarily and the changes won’t be saved. Since
your current SSIS 2008 package cannot be upgraded automatically, you can create the package from scratch in SSDT installed by SQL Server 2010. Another option isto open the SSIS 2008 package in SSDT or add the package to a SSIS 2012 project, then the upgrade
will be performed automatically. Then, you can check the error message during the upgrade, which may help you to find the tasks/components that cause the upgrade failure. In this way, you can remove the tasks/components in question from the SSIS 2008 package
and then upgrade the package, and then add the tasks/components in question in SSDT 2010.

Error trying to run SSIS Package via SQL Server Agent: DTExec: Could not set \Package.Variables[User::VarObjectDataSet].Properties[Value] value to System.Object

Situation:
SSIS Package designed in SQL Server 2012 - SQL Server Data Tools
Windows 7 - 64 bit.
The package (32 bit) extracts data from a SQL Server db to an Excel Output file, via an OLE DB connection.
It uses 3 package variables:
*) SQLCommand (String) to specify the SQL Statement to be executed by the package
Property path: \Package.Variables[User::ExcelOutputFile].Properties[Value]
Value: f:\Output Data.xls
*) EXCELOutputFIle (String) to specify path and filename of the Excel output file
Property path: \Package.Variables[User::SQLCommand].Properties[Value]
Value: select * from CartOrder
*) VarObjectDataSet (Object) to hold the data returned by SQL Server)
Property path: \Package.Variables[User::VarObjectDataSet].Properties[Value]
Value: System.Object
It consists out of 2 components:
*) Execute SQL Task: executes the SQL Statement passed on via a package variable. The resultng rows are stored in the package variable VarObjectDataSet
*) Script Task: creates the physical output file and iterates VarObjectDataSet to populate the Excel file.
Outcome and issue:The package runs perfectly fine both in SQL Server Data Tools itself and in DTEXECUI.
However, whenever I run it via SQL Server Agent (with 32 bit runtime option set), it returns the errror message below.
This package contains 3 package variables but the error stating that a package variable can not be set, pops up for the VarObjectDataSet only. This makes me wonder if it is uberhaupt possible to set the value of a package variable
of type Object.
Can anybody help me on this please ?

Hi Visakh,
thank you for your reply.
So, judging by your reply, not all package variables used inside a package need to be set a value for when run in DTEXEC ?
I already tried that but my package ended up in error (something to do with "... invocation ...." and that error is anything but clearly documented. Judging by the error message itself, it looks like it could be just about anything. that is why I asked my
first question about the object type package variable.
Now, I will remove it from the 'set values' list and try another go cracking the unclear error-message " ... invocation ...". Does an error message about " ... invocation ..." ring any bells, now that we are talking about it here ?
Thx in advance
Jurgen
Yes exactly
You need to set values only forthem which needs to be controlled from outside the package
Any variable which gets its value through expression set inside package or through a query inside execute sql task/script task can be ignored from DTExec
Ok I've seen the invocation error mostly inside script task. This may be because some error inside script written in script task. If it appeared after you removed the variable then it may because some reference of variable existing within script task.

Can't install the Windows Update package KB2674319 (SQL Server 2012 SP1)

Hi. I need to get the update of my MS SQL Server 2012 installation in order to get the SP1.
When I run the Windows Update it appears to download well the package.
Then when it begins to install I get the error "84C4000E: Se ha producido un error con Windows Update" (our server is in Spanish).
I have the last updates for Windows Server, a rebooted our server and the issue remains.
Any idea of what should I do to get the SP1 update?
Thanks in advance.
Gustavo.

Hi Gustavo,
Based on your description, I suggest you should refer to the following articles. And then check if you can install the update successfully.

Package migration from SSIS 2008 R2 to SQL server 2012

hi guys:
My company has decided to use Sql server 2012 for the database service, Integration service as well as analysis service
The first question is which tool I should install to run packages ? in SQL Server 2008 R2, I've installed BIDS which is inside the disk.
Also do I need to install any visual studio tools? I was under the impression that the BIDS 2008 was using kinda shell visual studio.
Thanks
Hui

Hi cat_ca,
To develop package in SQL Server 2012 Integration Services, we use the SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT 2012) which can be installed from the SQL Server 2012 install media. The SSDT 2012 use Visual Studio 2010 shell by default and can be integrated into Visual
Studio 2010. By installing SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012, we can also integrate SSDT 2012 into Visual Studio 2012. However, SSDT 2012 cannot be integrated into Visual Studio 2013. As far as I know, the SSDT 2014 released
in SQL Server 2014 RTM will use the Visual Studio 2013 shell and can be integrated into Visual Studio 2013.

Msg 8631 Internal error: Server stack limit has been reached on SQL Server 2012 from T-SQL script that runs on SQL Server 2008 R2

I have an Script mostly that is generated by SSMS which works with-out issue on SQL Server 2008, but when I attempt to run it on a new fresh install of SQL Server 2012 I get an Msg 8631. Internal error: Server stack limit has been reached. Please look for
potentially deep nesting in your query, and try to simplify it.
The script itself doesn't seem to be all that deep or nested. The script is large 2600 lines and when I remove the bulk of the 2600 lines, it does run on SQL Server 2012. I'm just really baffled why something that SQL Server generated with very
few additions/changes AND that WORKS without issue in SQL Server 2008 R2 would suddenly be invalid in SQL Server 2012
I need to know why my script which is working great on our current SQL Server 2008 R2 servers suddenly fails and won't run on an new SQL Server 2012 server. This script is used to create 'bulk' Replications on a large number of DBs saving a tremendous
amount of our time doing it the manual way.
Below is an 'condensed' version of the script which fails. I have removed around 2550 lines of specific sp_addarticle statements which are mostly just copy and pasted from what SQL Management Studio 'scripted' for me went I when through the Replication
Wizard and told it to save to script.

Individual SSIS Package deployment in SQL server 2012

Hi,
I am developing the SSIS packages in sql server 2012.
I want to know how we can deploy individual SSIS packages as I will be editing the required packages if need be then I have to deploy that package only instead of entire project deployment.
Please help me on this.
Regards,
Ramu
Ramu Gade

Hi Ramu,
According to your description, you want to deploy a single package instead of entire project in SQL Server 2012.
In SQL Server 2012, the unit of deployment to the SSIS catalog is a SSIS Project. Each SSIS project contains one or more SSIS packages. We couldn’t directly deploy a single package in Project Deployment Model.
To work around this issue, we can refer to the following suggestions:
SSMS-->Integration Service Catalogs-->SSISDB-->Your project-->projects. Right click on the projects, and choose "Import Packages...". Then make use of the Project Conversion Wizard to select the packages that you want to deploy, deploy
the generated .ispac file to SSIS Catalog.
The command line tool DTUTIL.EXE which can be used to deploy SSIS packages.

Getting problem while installing Sql Server 2012

I am using Windows 8 in my system. I am trying to install Sql Server 2012 in my system .
But i am getting following error in the final.
The required MSI package 'D:\SQL Server 2012\x86\setup\sql_engine_core_shared_msi' doesn't exist.
Please, help me quickly.

Hi，
You post same question 3 times. Please avoid this practice on Forum, I
have merged the same thread into this thread . Thanks for your understanding.
In addition, as other post, you can copy the missing .msi file from the complete and unbroken installation media to your MSI package path. Then run as administrator again. And also check if your account has read and write permission for your installation
media saving path. If the error still exists, you can check the SQL setup logs (Detail.txt and summary.txt) for analysis.
There is similar issue about installing SQL Server failed due to miss the required MSI package.

Error: Failed to acquire connection while exporting a file using SSIS package through SQl Server Agent job.

Hi Team,
I am running a sql server job which is loading data to a sharepoint document library.File is an excel format and is getting loaded
when executed through SSDT solution .But when i am using an SQL Agent job to pick up the file it doesnt get the path and agent job fails with the error "Failed to acquire connection".I have deployed the SSIS Package through SQL Server 2012 deployment
methodologies.
I am not able to trace the error of loading data from a sharepoint library.library. Sql agent jobs works fine when i give local path.The
account which is running the sql agent job is the same who has access to document library.I also tried to run the job through proxy account. I am using a xml configuraion to store my credentials.I am able to palce the same file to a network drive in the same
server through sql server agent job. The only problem is when I am trying to load the file to a sharepoint folder.
Thanks,
Arsa..

Is that the WebDAV method that you are suggesting here to map the n/w drive?
Its kind of webdav but you will be using windows nw drive to store data
yes, I am able to create the file to D: , but didn't check with the C:.

Setup closed with exit code: 0x84C40013 - Silent Install error - SQL Server 2012 express management studio SP1

I am trying to create a silent installation package for SQL Server 2012 Express Management Studio SP1. (both x86 & x64)
Prior to installation I have performed the following :
1. Turned ON the Windows feature 'Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.1' (I had read somewhere on the internet that this is required prior to installation)
2. Installed Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
I am using the following command line to perform an unattended install :
<EXENAME> /Q /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
However, the installation fails abruptly.
The application installs successfully with the following command line :
<EXENAME> /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
The error occurs only while attempting to install the application with the /Q switch appended.
Please help.

Hello Fanny,
Thanks for providing the link to the SQL Server 2012 unattended install guide.
However, I must highlight that I was running the setup.exe with "Run As a Administrator" option and still facing the issue.
Anyways, I found out the root cause and I must say that it was a rather silly one.
As I had stated previously, the following command line was causing the issue :
<EXENAME>
/Q /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
I simply changed it to the following and it worked....
<EXENAME>
/QUIET /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=INSTALL /FEATURES=TOOLS
It so seems that everything must be in CAPITALS for this to work.

Soumen

Perform Forced Manual Failover of Availability Group (SQL Server 2012) and WSFC (Windows Server Failover Cluster)

I have a scenario with the three nodes with server 2012 standard, each running an instance of SQL Server 2012 enterprise, participate in a
single Windows Server Fail-over Cluster (WSFC) that spans two data centers.
If the nodes in the primary data center are unavailable due to data center outage. Then how I can able to access node in the WSFC (Windows Server Fail-over Cluster) in the secondary disaster recovery data center automatically with some script.
I want to write script that can be able to check primary data center by pinging some IP after every 5 or 10 minutes.
If that IP is unable to respond then script can be able to Perform Forced Manual Fail-over of Availability Group (SQL Server) and WSFC (Windows Server Fail-over Cluster)
Can you please guide me for script writing for automatic fail-over in case of primary data-center outage?

+1 to David's comment. I would not suggest to run a script automatically. During such failover you might have data loss and decision has to be made with business owners during disaster.
During such situation, you need to start cluster service in force quorum mode (/fq switch) and then perform manual failover of AG to DR site.

SQL Server 2012 is prompting wrong message while creating new instance.

Summary:
While performing two task simultaneously 1) deleting existing SQL Server 2008 r2 instance 2) Creating SQL Server 2012 Instance. I received wrong message.
Explanation:
I have SQL Server 2012 setup in my server. By mistake I created SQL Server 2008 r2 instance.
Now simultaneously I was performing two task 1) deleting SQL Server 2008 r2 instance 2) Creating SQL Server 2012 Instance.
While creating SQL Server 2012 instance i received popup message "Another SQL Server 2012 setup is running but the running setup was not SQL Server 2012, it was SQL Server 2008 r2.

Hello,
You should not run two SQL Server setups at the same time. In fact, SQL Server has a rule to verify there is no pending restart because of an installation/uninstallation in progress.
Please cancel the installation of SQL Server and continue uninstalling the SQL Server 2008 R2 instance.
Hope this helps.

Unable to upgrade SSIS packages to SQL Server 2014

Hi there,
I'm trying to upgrade our SSIS packages from SQL Server 2012 to 2014 (in Visual Studio 2013). The wizard pops up the minute the project loads and I leave everything to default.
It errors immediately though on almost every package with the following error:
Error 0xc001000e: MyPackage: The connection "{5F69F91E-8CD7-49A7-A76A-815244411037}" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.
That connection is a project connection manager and most definitely exists. In fact, I can open the individual package and it upgrades it for me and the package is completely fine. It seems to me that the upgrade wizard has a bug whereby it doesn't
look for project connection managers.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, otherwise I might just post it to connect as a bug.

I was able to fix it using the following steps:
Open project, "Upgrade Package Wizard" opens automatically
Select all packages, click next, some packages will fail. Ignore them, close wizard.
Open every package. A message says "Package was upgraded" for each package.
Save every package, save solution, close solution
Open the solution again. This time no "Upgrade Wizard" opens, upgrade was successful
Deploy the solution to SSIS server (my project already had package configuration)
This is what worked for me, I hope it'll help others.
