SSIS 2012 error column name - SSISDB

I need to get the column name for the error rows in a Data Flow Task. I have looked at this:
bennyaustin.wordpress.com/2011/02/04/ssis-name-of-errorcolumn/
which requires this: dfld.codeplex com
which requires "Fully qualified path of SSIS Package in File System.".
Our packages aren't deployed to the file system. They are deployed to the Integration Services Catalog/SSISDB.
What is the recommended method for retrieving the column name when a row is redirected due to an error?
Thanks for your help,
Suzanne

Hi Suzanne,
To get the column name based on the Lineage ID of the error column, we need to use the
FindColumnByLineageID method in a Script Component or create a Custom Component.
Now that the solution described in the blog you mentioned uses a third-party Custom Component, you can also refer to the following blog which provides the code to build such a Custom Component:
http://naseermuhammed.wordpress.com/tips-tricks/getting-error-column-name-in-ssis/
The demo in this blog is for SSIS 2012.

How to find exact error column name

hi all ,
My requirement is as follows .
I am trying to add a record into temp_emp table inside plsql block ,after executing it i am getting ORA-01438: value larger than specified precision allowed for this column error .I want to find for which column the error is coming .
In the below example i clearly know that deptno column precision is 2 and i am inserting bigger value that is why i am getting error .
let us consider a scenario where i am trying to insert 40 colunm values into table and one column is causing the problem , how to find that column alone .

Oracle does not provide the column information in the error message and I don't know of any way to do so outside of developing something convoluted. For example:
SQL> DECLARE
2     te_row temp_emp%ROWTYPE;
3 BEGIN
4
5     te_row.empno := 1234;
6     te_row.ename := 'ABC';
7     te_row.job    := 'CLERK';
8     te_row.deptno := 1000;
9
10     INSERT INTO temp_emp
11          VALUES te_row;
12 END;
13 /
DECLARE
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: number precision too large
ORA-06512: at line 8Also, that EXCEPTION block has a bug in it (no RAISE or RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR).

How to run ssis 2012 package deployed on SSISDB using stored procedures from [SSISDB].[catalog] by regular AD accounts ?

Hello, I need to run ssis package by stored proc(pass parameters inside and get result using stored procedures [SSISDB].[catalog].[create_execution]) etc. Do not suggest me to use SQL Agent here as this is not the case. or by pass this using configuration
for SSIS, I need to know what permission I'm missing if those stored proc run by AD account, with rights described from BOL and I'm having "The current security
context cannot be reverted. Please switch to the original database where 'Execute As' was called and try it again." If I schedule stored proc to run by Agent and specify parameters - will work, from remote PC - does not. I have sysdamin
rights on the server where SSIS and stored proc which is call it exists. I was digging around and have ugly solution to make it working, I want to use elegant solution using those stored proc from [SSISDB].[catalog] ...
Any help especially from Microsoft guys here...?
Vladimir

>>>>If I schedule stored proc to run by Agent and specify parameters - will work,

Vova
If you schedule the job it will be running under SQL Server Agent account security.... What error
do you get when you run the SP from remote PC?

SSIS 2012 Error - The SQL Server specified in Integration Services service configuration is not present or is not available..

hi Guys,
working on below error if anyone has work around.
It is on SQL Server 2012 cluster.
The SQL Server specified in Integration Services service configuration is not present or is not available. This might occur when there is no default instance of SQL Server on the computer. For more information, see the topic "Configuring
the Integration Services Service" in SQL Server 2012 Books Online.
Please Mark As Answer if it is helpful. \\Aim To Inspire Rather to Teach

Hi Logicinisde,
This issue might be caused that we install named instance on the machine, or the default instance listening a different port rather than the default one.
To solve this issue, please refer to the following article for detail information:

Insert Error: Column name or number of supplied values does not match table definition.

I'm getting this error when I try to run my stored procedure, I have checked that the inserts matches the select, which seemed to be
the issue for most of the time this question is asked. As far as I can tell they match so something else must be wrong.

SSIS 2012 EXCEL Connection manager error

Hello all,
When i try to make any excel connection manager in ssis 2012 its show below error.
"Could not retrieve the table information for the connection manager 'Excel Connection Manager'. Failed to connect to the source using the connection manager 'Excel Connection Manager' in ssis 2012 error"
I try for it EXCEL source and EXCEL destination. Both time same error happen.
Before i m use ssis 2008 then its work well bt after install 2012 its start this problem. I m also change debug 64 bit in false from true.
Thanks for help

Hi is there any way to install 32 ACE OLE DB in 64 bit system without uninstall my other software .
I tried yesterday to instal 32 bit ACE but its told me u need to uninstall 64 bit software first :(
thanks
When using the command line, you can force the installation of the 32-bit version while the 64-bit version has already been installed.

JDBC send data to oracle, oracle only accept column name in Upper case

Hi experts,
I am doing a scenario File --> XI --> JDBC, JDBC send data to a Oracle 10g database, I have configured JDBC receiver to use XML-SQL format. in oracle database , table "EMPLOYEE" has a column "NAME", but when I send data to oracle using JDBC receiver, the column is "name", then XI complains
" 'EMPLOYEE' (structure 'insert'): java.sql.SQLException: FATAL ERROR: Column 'name' does not exist in table 'EMPLOYEE'.
can anyone help me to let oracle accpet column "name". I can't change colum in JDBC receiver from "name" to "NAME".
Thanks a lot.

<i>can anyone help me to let oracle accpet column "name"</i>
Making Oracle case insensitive is not possible (in my opinion). By default all object names are stored in UPPER case in the rdbms dictionary.
When XI searches for column name in Oracle, this search is case sensitive. So u have to configure accordingly.

Row Insert Failed - Column name or number of supplied values does not match

Hi ,
I am trying add a new field to an existing table in MSSQL and access it in portlets,
I added the new field in the table, and making necessary updations to the accessing java code seems to look fine. but when i insert the new rwo, fails with exception listed below.
My code tidbits is as follows.
               System.out.println("Column Location of outsidePhysician"+ aResultSet.findColumn("outsidePhysician")); // works and returns 24
               if (anIntake.getOutsidePhysician() != null && !(anIntake.getOutsidePhysician().equals("")))
                    System.out.println("Now Alternate Physician will be added to resultset");
                    aResultSet.updateString(24, anIntake.getOutsidePhysician());
                    aResultSet.updateString("outsidePhysician",anIntake.getOutsidePhysician());
                    System.out.println("Now Alternate Physician already added to resultset"); // also printed
               }else{
                    aResultSet.updateString(24, "new Physician");
                    aResultSet.updateString("outsidePhysician","new Physician");
               //NOT NULL
               aResultSet.insertRow(); // fails here
               System.out.println("Inserted");
The table has the right field name too, which is proved when i retrieve the fieldno, based on field name. I tried to delete the field and removing these changes work ok..
Any ideas would be of help
Thanks in Advance

I haven't ever used that method of inserting rows, but from the example in the API documentation it looks to me like you have to callaResultSet.moveToInsertRow();before you callaResultSet.insertRow();Or are you just "inserting" the physician's name into existing rows of the database? If that's what you are doing then you need to callaResultSet.updateRow();Message was edited by:

Column Name Length of Tables In ODI

Hello Everyone,
I am facing with an unique issue in ODI. We are using ODI AIA for Integration, which has default XML exports of some JD Edwards tables.
These tables are automatically reversed and models are created using AIA, one such file is named Base.xml and is reversed as a Model named 'Base' in ODI. In this model there are various tables which are created on the basis of the contents of XML file. The column names are derived from XML Tags. Some XML tags are having length greater than 30. This does not create a problem in the model as such, but when using it as source in interface, the temporary tables that are created on-the-fly in a schema (Oracle) does not allow the length to be greater than 30 and hence the interface fails (error : Column name length exceeded), add to it, ODI suffixes column names with a Cnumber_. Since the XML file and tags are standard within the AIA, we cannot alter the length.
So is there a way to reduce the column name length of temporary tables which are created at runtime by ODI based on the source XML files ?
Thanks in advance,
NJ

If you are using temp table that are created on the fly, you can not control the column length, so you have only one alternative just change the column name (less than 30) in model level.
Thanks

The binary code for the script is not found error for the Script component - SSIS 2012

Hi,
I'm implementing a SSIS 2012 pkg. For a data flow task, I'm using a Visual Basic 2010 script component with an Oracle input flow. For the script component I've an input column and I've created an output column. Inside the script code I've edited only inside
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer).
The written code is:
If Year(Row.OFFDATAORI) < 1900 Then
Row.OFFDATAORIconv = CDate(CStr("1900" + "-" + Right("00" + CStr(Month(Row.OFFDATAORI)), 2) + "-" + Right("00" + CStr(DatePart(DateInterval.Day, Row.OFFDATAORI)), 2))
Else : Row.OFFDATAORIconv = Row.OFFDATAORI
End If
It is to note that OFFDATAORI isn't the name of the input column for the script component.
When I close the script component I've an error about "The binary code for the script is not found".
Any helps to me, please?
Thanks

Hi,
I've solved. There was a syntax error, a bit hidden.

SSIS 2012: SSIS Error Code "Excel Connection Manager" failed with error code 0xC0202009.

Hi,
This is kind of weird issue that I am experiencing with excel connection manager in SSIS 2012. This issue occurs sometimes but when I close and re-open SSDT (SQL Server Data Tools - newer BIDS) then this issues goes off temporarily.
Just FYI, through SSDT environment I executed the package successfully with both settings Run64bit runtime setting to Yes and No when error does not occur.
So far I have installed
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13255 (Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable).
I still remember for older versions of SQL Server (2005 & 2008) that I have executed Excel connection SSIS packages with Run64bit runtime = false i.e. in 32-bit mode. As far as I know I think Excel 64-bit issue has been resolved with SQL Server
2012 release.
Here is the detail of error message:

Here are my environment details:
SQL Server 2012 {Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (SP1) - 11.0.3368.0 (X64) } , Excel 2010 (32-bit). I am developing SSIS code on Virtual desktops with Windows 7 32-bit OS.
Also it occurred to me that since Virtual Desktops are on Shared Infrastructure, the source files and SSIS packages (code) can be on Shared drives for e.g. \\<Corpnet>\userdata\<Corp_Users_Grp>\<Username>\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Integration
Services Project2\Integration Services Project2\Package.dtsx.
Does this kind of Shared drives have any impact to give this issue?
Thanks in advance!

P.S.: I had look at this forum question -->
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/903bbe1d-e070-4c43-9d3b-0a5193550029/64bit-error-in-excel-connection-manager-in-ssis

Hi Arthur,
Thanks for your response.
Yes, it looks like SSIS still has bunch of issues with Excel files like as follows:
1) Some times excel source files cannot be parsed by excel source connection manager.
2) For derive column conversion, we can't replace the existing column. rather, we have to add the derived column as " add as new column" which is tough to manage while destination mapping.
3) If an column in excel contains a data which is not of the data type assigned for the column in excel, the excel source reads that data as "null". For the same, we can't validate the data and redirect the erroneous data in reject file. <-- For
this we tried IMEX setting also
4) In multi-tab/sheet excel file, excel source is unable to detect a tab and identify the metadata of the excel.
I am also checking Microsoft connect for Excel issues with SSIS 2012(https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/SearchResults.aspx?SearchQuery=excel#&&PageIndex=22
As worst case scenario, I am thinking of converting Excel to CSV file or Flat text file. (http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2772/importing-data-from-excel-using-ssis--part-2/).
Do you think it is advisable to convert Excel into CSV or Flat file.
Thanks,
Ketan

[Flat File Destination [220]] Error: Failed to write out column name for column "Column 2"

I am using SSIS to extract fixed width data into a flat file destination and I keep getting below error. I have tried almost everything in this forum but still no solution. can anyone help me out to solve this problem.

Hi Giss68,
Could you check the Advanced tab of the Flat File Connection Manager to see whether the InputColumnWidth and the OutputColumnWidth properties of the Column2 has the same value? Please refer to the following link about the same topic:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10292091/how-do-i-fix-failed-to-write-error-while-exporting-data-to-ragged-right-flat-fil
If it doesn’t work, please post the sample data and the advanced settings of Column2 for further analysis.

In my SQL Server 2012 Management Studio, I executed this set of code and I got the following fatal error:
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 16
Invalid column name 'EmployeeID'.
I have no clues why I got this error message in this .sql trial of my second practice in doing CTE. Please kindly help and let me know where I made mistake and how to resolve this problem.
Thanks in advance,

Hi scott_morris-ga, Thanks for your nice response.
I changed EmployeeID to BusinessEntityID as you pointed out and executed the revised code:
-- CTETest2.sql /// saved in C:\My Documents\SQL Server Management Studio\
----Page 88 of Book by Toth === Using CTE in a query ----- 13 March 2015
--Using CTE in a query
;WITH CTE (SalesPersonID, NumberOfOrders, MostRecentOrderDate)
AS (SELECT SalesPersonID, COUNT(*), CONVERT(date, MAX(OrderDate))
FROM Sales.SalesOrderHeader GROUP BY SalesPersonID )
--Start of outer (main) query
SELECT E.BusinessEntityID,
OE.NumberOfOrders AS EmpOrders,
OE.MostRecentOrderDate AS EmpLastOrder,
E.ManagerID,
OM.NumberOfOrders AS MgrOrders,
OM.MostRecentOrderDate AS MgrLastOrder
FROM HumanResources.Employee AS E
INNER JOIN CTE AS OE ON E.BusinessEntityID = OE.SalesPersonID
LEFT OUTER JOIN CTE AS OM ON E.ManagerID = OM.SalesPersonID
I got 2 new error messages:
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 17
Invalid column name 'ManagerID'.
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 12
Invalid column name 'ManagerID'.
I have no ideas what should be used to replace 'ManagerID' in my revised code. Could you please help again and give me the right thing to replace the 'ManagerID'? By the way, where in the AdventureWorks do you find the right things? Please enlighten
me in this matter.
Many Thanks again, Scott Chang

HELP: SSIS 2012 - Execute SQL Task with resultset to populate user variables produces DBNull error

I am experiencing an unexplainable behavior with the Execute SQL Task control in SSIS 2012. The following is a description of how to simulate
the issue I will attempt to describe:
1. Create a package and add two variables User::varTest1 and User::varTest2 both of String type with default value of "Select GetDate()"
for each, have shown this to not matter as the same behavior occurs when using a fixed string value or empty string value.
2. Add a new Execute SQL Task to the control flow.
3. Configure an OLE DB connection.
4. Set SQLSourceType = "Direct Input"
5. Set the ResultSet property of the task to "Single Row"
6. In the ResultSet tab add two results as follows:
Result Name: returnvalue1, Variable Name: User::varTest1
Result Name: returnvalue2, Variable Name: User::varTest2
7. Set an expression for the SqlStatementSource property with a string value of "Select 'Test' returnvalue1, 'Testing' returnvalue2'"
The idea is that the source would be dynamically set in order to run a t-sql statement which would have dynamic values for database name
or object that would be created at runtime and then executed to set the user variable values from its resultset. Instead what occurs is that a DBNull error occurs.
I am not sure if anyone else has experienced this behavior performing similiar actions with the Execute SQL Task or not. Any help would be
appreciated. The exact message is as follows:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "varRestoreScript": "The type of the value
(DBNull) being assigned to variable "User::varRestoreScript" differs from the current variable type (String). Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object.
User::varRestoreScript is the first return value. And even with the a dummy select the same result occurs. I have narrowed the issue down
to the T-SQL Statement structure itself.
The following works just fine within the execute sql task control as long as no resultset is configured for return:
"Declare @dynamicSQL nvarchar(max)
Select @dynamicSQL = name
From sys.databases
Where name = 'master'
Select atest_var1=@dynamicSQL, atest_var2='static'"
I have tried various iterations of the script above with no success. However, if I use the following derivative of it the task completes
successfully and variables are set as expected. This will not work for my scenario however as I need to dynamically build a string spanning multiple resultsets to build one of the variable values.
"Select atest_var1=name, atest_var2='static'
From sys.databases
Where name = 'master'
I have a sample package which can reproduce this issue using the above code. You can get to that through the post on www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1582670-364-1.aspx

Arthur, the query when executed doesn't return a null value for the @dynamicSQL variable. It returns "master" as a string value. Even the following fails which implements that suggestion:
Declare @dynamicSQL as nvarchar(max)
Select @dynamicSQL = name
From master.sys.databases
Where name = 'master' -- (or any other DB name)
I believe I have found the cause of the issue. It is datatype and size related. The above script will properly set the variables in the resultset as long as you don't use nvarchar(max) or varchar(max). This makes the maximum data size for
a String variable 4000 characters whether unicode or non-unicode typed.
