Script Task order by FileName

I have following code in my script task to get all the files in directory.
String[] sourceFiles =
Directory.GetFiles(Dts.Variables["User::FilePath"].Value.ToString(),
"*.TIF");
I have files in directory as 1.TIF, 10. TIF, 3.TIF.
I would like to process my files in following order 1.TIF, 3.TIF, 10.TIF.
How do i sort it by FileName ascending.
any help much appreciated.

If the numeric sorting is necessary then still the same function applies, but you need to extract the numerical portion of the elements of the file names array (the 3,1...), place 'em into a new numeric array and sort it, and then when you operate on the
elements for processing append the extension (given it is the same for all files, otherwise it becomes tricky).

Script task error during the creation of partition by reading a table and using AMO - SSAS 2012

Hi,
I need to create SSAS (tabular) and process partitions in an authomatic manner. Moreover, the partitioning is respect to a category, an year and a month.
Category, year and month are resident on a table to read to create the SSAS partitions.
So, in a SSIS pkg:
a. I've created a data flow task to read the SQL Server table having category, year and month data,
b. I've connected the output of the ole db source as the input for a recordset destination, associated to an object variable,
c. I've used a for each loop container (ado enumerator) specifying the object variable and three variables, for category, year and month,
d. inside the for each loop container I've created a script task using AMO (visual basic) to control for any existing partitions, if not presents to create the new ones and then to process them.
For the first iteration, a new partition has been created and processed successfully, but then, for other category, year and month values the script task fails. I've controlled the code many times and I've tried to put returning messageboxes but I've found
anything. The error is a generic one and no other info are returned.
Well, any suggests to me in order to solve this issue, please?
Many thanks

Hi, thanks, I've solved adding to the code end the SSAS server connection termination.

Iterating inside a script task - SSIS 2012

Hi,
in order to create SSAS partitions I need to read a SQL Server table where I've year and month value.
So I think to iterate for each row inside the data set returned by the read operation and for each year and month value to create a SSAS partition.
Is it better to read the SQL Server table outside the script task? How can I iterate for each row in the dataset inside the script component?
Any suggests to me, please?
Thanks

I've done similar requirement as below
1. Create a object type variable
2. Use Execute sql task to populate the recordset with partition information from the query. Use resultset option as Full resultset and map to object variable with index 0 in resultset tab
3. Use a For Each Loop with ADO enumerator and map to object variable. Then have variables inside to get individual field values
4. Add script task inside loop and pass the variables inside and use it to build your script task for partition processing. If you want you can also use analysis services DDL task for this too.

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

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

Passing parameters with spaces to SCCM Run PowerShell Script task

I am working on an OS deployment task sequence in SCCM 2012 R2 with several Run PowerShell Script tasks. Most of them run fine, but I am having trouble with the one I need to pass parameters to.
The parameters I need to pass are:
-ComputerOU "ou=All Workstations,dc=contoso,dc=com" -GroupDN "cn=Group1,ou=All Groups,dc=contoso,dc=com"
I have that line (with actual DNs) entered in Parameters of the task.
But when the script runs on the target machine, the values of the parameters in the script are truncated at the spaces. $ComputerOU is set to "ou=All" and $GroupDN is set to "cn=Group1,ou=all"
What syntax should I be using the Parameters field of the Task in order to properly pass PowerShell parameter string values that include spaces?
Tim Curwick
MadWithPowerShell.com

Thank you, TC, but I am not calling the parameters from within PowerShell.
The parameters are in the settings of a task sequence task to be used by the task to launch a script. The syntax I am using would be correct for use within PowerShell or from a command line or batch script, but SCCM appears to be doing some parsing
before or while it is passing them to the script, possibly dropping the quotes which causes mishandling of the spaces in the string values.
Historically, it is always challenging to give one application parameters to pass to another application, and the required syntax can get quite tricky when the two application handle quotes or spaces differently, or when the parent application wants to parse
something intended to be passed on as is to the child application.
I'm sure someone has already figured out what the syntax needs to be for doing this with an SCCM 'Run PowerShell Script" task, it's just one of those issues that is hard to Google effectively.
Any other ideas?

Convert ActiveX DTS script task to SSIS Script task - Please help

Hello,
I Have a ActiveX script that was used in a DTS package but I'm currently trying to convert all my DTS packages to SSIS.The script is tasked to run the package on a daily basis. Everything works fine except the ActiveX script. It gives an error on my DTSGlobalVariables.parent,
I looked up this error and changed it to "DTS.Variables("User::VariableName").Value", in
the SSIS script task (in VB) but now I'm getting error:

I have tried to convert this ActiveX script into a SSIS script task in VB but I know hardly any VB... So I'm wondering what the best course of action for me is, should I try to convert it into the script task like I am trying now, if so, how do I make it
work?
Any help would be really really welcome.
This is the original ActiveX script that needs to be converted:

End Function

Set a breakpoint and tell us on what line it dies, at the same time, you can inspect the variable values in the Auto window (if there are) as it merely perhaps is an issue with values not being passed in.

Problem with Script Task formatting excel

Hi Experts,
I am creating a package and using Script task to format one excel dimension file, now the problem is if I execute the package from BIDS designer with static values then the package executes fine with excel file formatted perfectly fine but if I execute same package in BPC via Data manager with values used from variables it gives error on script task message:
"Description = System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800A03EC): Microsoft Office Excel cannot access the file 'E:\PC_MS\Data\Webfolders\CDNPLAN\AdminApp\Stage\Employee.xls'. There are several possible reasons:
u2022 The file name or path does not exist.
u2022 The file is being used by another program.
u2022 The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open workbook.

Hi,
If you do not define GLOBAL VARIABLE in your BPC package and BIDS, why don't you try to have it? you should specify the webfolder and file name in advanced script, then you also need to create global variable as text type in BIDS.
I saw many cases BPC does not pass the dynamic variable to BIDS, therefore I changed the type of variable as the Global variable and it works for me.

Error While executing a SSIS package which contains a script task through SQL Server Agent job

Hi,
I have a SQL Server 2012 SSIS package with a script task along with other tasks [data flow, execute sql tasks ]. When I manually executed the job through BIDS, its completed successfully.
Then I have automated the execution of the package through SQL Server Agent Job. But when I executed the package through SQL Agent job, it runs successfully for all the tasks except script task. When it comes to execute the Script Task, it is getting failed
with the below error message.
"Error: 2012-08-29 12:45:14.67
Code: 0x00000001
Source: Script Task
Description: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
End Error
DTExec: The package execution returned DTSER_FAILURE (1).
Started: 12:45:10 PM
Finished: 12:45:14 PM

I have installed the SSIS on the 64-bit environment and SSIS service is running. Also I tried to run the job through 32 bit [job option] but I am getting the above error in all cases.
Any help will be greatly appreaciated !
Thanks,

Below message taken from progress tab
[quote]Error: The script returned a failure result.[/quote]
Can you all please help me in finding where i am going wrong? please check below code which i have used in script task.
Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Script Task
Write scripts using Microsoft Visual C# 2008.
The ScriptMain is the entry point class of the script.
using System;
using System.Data;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
using System.Net.Mail;

#region VSTA generated code
enum ScriptResults
Success = Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.DTSExecResult.Success,
Failure = Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.DTSExecResult.Failure
#endregion
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.

Error in script task "The name 'file' does not exist in the current context"

I am new to the c# scripting and SSIS come from PHP and Foxpro.
I am using SSIS with a script task and I am getting am errror "The name 'file' does not exist in the current context" in the following code in the picture below: (See
Why does the object named "file" go away after the first refrence to it?? How do I make it avaliable for the whole script??
     public void Main()
        String cFileInfo = null;
        DateTime dFTPFileDateTime;
   bool fireAgain = true;
            List<IRemoteFileInfo> fileList = (List<IRemoteFileInfo>)Dts.Variables["SFTPResult"].Value;
            foreach (IRemoteFileInfo file in fileList)
                cFileInfo = file.Name + "|" +file.ModifiedTime +"|"+ file.Size;
            Dts.Events.FireInformation(1, "Name ", cFileInfo, "", 0, ref fireAgain);
            dFTPFileDateTime =
file.ModifiedTime;
<< This is where the error is occuring.
            Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success;

I think you forgot { and } after the loop... Or is that deliberately?
