SSIS 2012 working differently than 2008

I am in the process of migrating my SSIS 2008 packages to SSIS 2012 and I've come across a problem. I have a flat file connection manager that has the text qualifier set to " (double quote) and the column delimiter set to | (veritcal bar).
In 2008, it reads and processes the file just fine. However, after converting it to SSIS 2012, it fails because it's finding double quotes inside of data fields (like this "The "man" was named John") and it
assumes the blank after "man" should be the vertical bar instead of a blank. I get an error of
[Flat File Source [16]] Error: The column delimiter for column "TransportTemp" was not found.
In other words, it appears to me that 2008 did NOT process the file correctly and catch the double quote within the data, but 2012 did catch it.
Has anyone else had this issue?
Are my only options to either scrub all the data so no double quotes are found within data fields, or have the creator of the flat file change the text qualifier to something besides a double quote? Or is there an easier option I am missing?

Hi BrandenKolb,
Based on my research, the issue that the flat file parser does not support embedding text qualifiers in data, parsing columns that contain data with text qualifiers will fail at run time is a limitation in SQL Server Integration Services. For more details,
please refer to the following feedback:
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/778980/embedded-text-qualifier-during-export-to-csv-does-not-conform-to-rfc-4180
As a workaround, we can store the data to a SQL table, then use T-SQL query to select the appropriate data from the table with OLE DB Source in SSIS Or use a
script task. The following query is for your reference:
--Store data to a table
CREATE TABLE TEXTFILE_1(
    a varchar(100) ,
    b varchar(100) ,
    c varchar(100) ,
    d varchar(100));
BULK INSERT TEXTFILE_1 FROM 'C:\text.TXT'
WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR ='|',ROWTERMINATOR ='\n')
--select appropriate data from table
select substring (a,2,len(a)-2),substring (b,2,len(b)-2),substring (c,2,len(c)-2),substring (d,2,len(d)-2) from TEXTFILE_1

2012 less flexible than 2008 when buffer layout changes

Hi. We run 2012 enterprise and vs 2010. It was rare in 2008 that data format changes in the buffer (eg removal of a source column, changing a dest table etc etc) caused deletion and re add of ssis components to clean up ssis confusion.
Often, the 2008 oledb destination component would recognize something is different and give the developer an option to correct and apply the changes easily. 2008's confusion would go away. Sometimes opening and closing components sitting between
the source and dest seemed to help.
In 2012 it seems that confusion happens often. Its as if ssis gets bent on "keeping remnants" of columns that are no longer coming in to a particular sub packages buffer due to changes in source/destination/derived column components.
It seems especially bad when a subpackage's components are copied and used as a starting place for another subpkg. But it doesnt seem limited to that scenario.
Is there a setting available that gives us back what I think was more flexibility and less rework in previous versions of ssis?

after doing the latter and then binding the source file component to that manager and then opening the derived column component that follows, ssis still hangs on to expressions based on cols that no longer exist and doesnt show them as red. After I
physically replace that expression with one based on a relevant col, close and reopen, ssis removes old reference.
Something is different but i do often see a red x next to the component connectors so far...at least until the bad references are removed. Too bad ssis doesnt tell you what's wrong.
Also, would be nice if after cleaning up you could tell ssis in the dest component to attempt mapping same named cols.

SSIS 2005 and SSIS 2012 Have Different Data Flow Output

Hi Guys,
I'm currently converting our SSIS 2005 packages to 2012 and I'm finding an odd difference on the Data Flow Output when it imports a txt file to a table.
We have a pipe delimited file ( contains a totals on the bottom row).
CATNO|Title|Total Stk Avail|Stk on Order|Rank|QOH|Allocated|Reserved|BackOrd|WIP|Cleared|Held
CATNUM000067|Fast and Furious|9804|0||9804|0|0|0|0|0|0
CATNUM000068|Frozen|0|0||0|0|0|0|0|0|0
CATNUM000029|Brave|0|0||0|0|0|0|0|0|0
CATNUM000029|Brave with Kinect|0|0||0|0|0|0|0|0|0
CATNUM000029|Big Hero|0|0||0|0|0|0|0|0|0
CATNUM000057|Transformers|27376|0||27376|0|0|0|0|0|0
CATNUM000013|James Bond|121|0||121|0|0|0|0|0|0
,Total Available Stock,524259
And these are the settings for the flat file connection
In SSIS 2005, the total rows are being omitted automatically by the data flow. Basically only 7 rows are inserted whereas in SSIS 2012. 8 rows were inserted including the totals.
if we think about it, SSIS 2012 is correct since we just feed what's ever in the file.
But on the conversion and testing perspective, it's now harder as there's discrepancies between those 2 version.
I just like to check if there's any other discrepancies in terms on results/output between SSIS 2005 and SSIS 2012
Many thanks.

Hi Vinxster,
After testing the issue that Flat File Connection Manager cannot handle file with total row in my SQL Server 2005 environment, I can reproduce it.
Based on my research, the issue is caused by the Column Delimiter gets first preference and then Row delimiter. This is by design in SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2008 R2.
Good news is that the issue is fixed in SQL Server Data Tools which comes with SQL Server 2012. In SQL Server 2012, by default, the Flat File Connection Manager always checks for a row delimiter in unquoted data, and starts a new row when a row delimiter
is found. This enables the connection manager to correctly parse files with rows that are missing column fields.
If you want to fix the issue in SQL Server 2005, there is a sample component posted to the CodePlex that might help you with this:

Planning Adhoc works differently than HFM Adhoc ?

Hi,
We have Hyperion Planning v11.1.2.2.300 and HFM v11.1.2.2.x installed.
Smartview version is v11.1.2.5.200 (Build 174).
It looks like Adhoc behaves differently depending on whether we are using HFM or Planning but we are unsure if this is intentional or a bug (I think its a bug or, God forbid, we do something wrong!).
Example for HFM:
Row: Entity
Column B1 - Version (Working)
Column B2 - Scenario (Budget)
Column B3 - Year (FY13)
Column B4 - Period (Jan)
In Column C3 we insert Year = FY14
Press refresh and column C1, C2, and C4 is filled with the contents of the equivelant B cell,
If we do the same for planning then we get an error "Member FY14 is out of place" !!???
This applies to anything we insert in cell C1 to C3.
If we insert a value in C4, ie Period = Feb, and press refresh then it works and C1 to C3 is filled with the equivalent values from B !?
Why oh why ?!
Hope this makes sense

It is not a bug. The different providers work differently. In Planning it get rid of the repeated members, you would select on the options->data tab suppress repeated members.

IE5.5 works different than IE 6... What is going on.

On IE 6.0.28 with the XP operating system. I get different results than IE 5.5. Is there any known bug with the following problem.
My html has the OBJECT tag with static versioning (8a...) for clssid... My browser tells me to install the 1.4.1_01 plug-in. It installs with a memory error exception, but still installs. It even runs the applet after the install. BUT when I get out of the browser and run it again, it again prompts me to install 1.4.1_01. This happens over and over again. So I switch to dynamic versioning using clssid CA... with 1.4 as the version. This works find, it picks up the 1.4.1_01 plug-in. SO, the problem is in the static versioning, the browser simply does not recognize that the plug-in is installed and asked to install it. This is the most frustrating problem I have ever had to work on. Same scenario for 1.4.1_02 (isn't this supposed to be the latest and greatest!)

I have my static and dynamic versioning values mixed up (sorry).... 1.4.1_01 STILL FAILS on both 5.5 and 6.0 The plug-in installs, but each time you run your applet it prompts you to install it again. Its clearly installed I even matched the clsid with what is in IE view objects.... 1.4 and 1.4.1_02 works fine.

SAP ME 6.0 POD Image Icons location works different than ME 5.2

In SAP ME 5.2 in POD Maintenance and Button configuration I had the Image Icon configured like:
/Images/PODButtons/blue_02.gif
This location was covered by a Netweaver Alias to point to the location where the images are located on the server.
In ME Base 6.0.1.0 Counter 40 the images do not appear in the POD anymore.
It only works if I specify like
http://10.79.3.36:50200/Images/PODButtons/blue_02.gif
It looks like ME 6.0 and 5.2 behave differently and I would need to change all the PODu2019s. The issues is as well transportability of the solution.
Any ideas how the POD Image location can be specified without the server name and port in ME 6.0?
Thanks Tony

Hello Tony,
It is a known issue for SAP and is goind to be fixed in some of ME 6.0 patches. Please check out Release Notes to verify the exact patch with the fix.

Alex.

Trackpoint driver works differently than the older one

I made the jump recently from Vista 32 to 64 and after installing drivers i noticed that i can no longer tap the trackpoint instead of left click - have you guys noticed that ?

Same issue here with W7 - the UltraNav program says everything is working and the driver is the latest release. However, the TouchPad is dead as a door nail. Lenovo can you share anything with us on this?

Signed jar works differently than unsigned jar - why?

I'm having a problem with one of my JWS applications (out of six!) -- the application runs fine locally out of the jars. However, when I sign the main jar for running with JWS, it goes into a loop trying to read a property file contained within the main jar. This occurs whether I run it locally or from the JWS server.
The only difference I can see is that the manifest file is affected, but they both have the same reference to the main class and it's also in the jnlp file.
Any thoughts?

I'm having a problem with one of my JWS applications
(out of six!) -- the application runs fine locally out
of the jars. However, when I sign the main jar for
running with JWS, it goes into a loop trying to read a
property file contained within the main jar.If several jars are involved, I would try to have each one signed. And then test again.
This
occurs whether I run it locally or from the JWS
server.Weird.
The only difference I can see is that the manifest
file is affected, but they both have the same
reference to the main class and it's also in the jnlp
file.So far I too believed that the signing just causes additional entry lines in the Manifest file, where for each jar entry some cryptographic hash (md5, sha-1, ..) value will be written.
What happens if you mention the main class as well, in case you test from running from a jar from the command line?

Marc

SSIS 2012 ETL is failing only at one server (No BIDS) but running successfully from BIDS on different sever . In this ETL, I have used Stored Procedure in OLEDB Source.

Is it a bug - SSIS 2012 ReadOnlyVariables in Script Task doesn't work

It's very weird when I use the ReadOnlyVariables in SSIS 2012 Script Task, it doesn't work at all!!! And I never notice this change before, but everything in 2008 R2 is fine! Is it a bug in SSIS 2012 ?
All the variables I set them to "ReadOnlyVariables"
In scripts - I assigned some values from system variables.
String PackageName = Dts.Variables["System::PackageName"].Value.ToString();
DateTime CurrentDate = (DateTime)Dts.Variables["System::StartTime"].Value;
// User Defined Variables
Dts.Variables["User::PV_CURRENT_DATE"].Value = CurrentDate;
Dts.Variables["User::PV_YEAR"].Value = CurrentDate.Year;
Dts.Variables["User::PV_MONTH"].Value = CurrentDate.Month;
Dts.Variables["User::PV_DAY"].Value = CurrentDate.Day;
Dts.Variables["User::PV_PACKAGE_NAME"].Value = PackageName;
Execute the package, it works !
The only thing I can make it as SSIS 2008 R2 does is to change the ReadOnly for each variables.
Then you will get the error.
Why do we need this feature here but not to use the ReadOnlyVariables in script task ?
Please vote if it's helpful and mark it as an answer!

I can reproduce it as well. Feels like a bug...
Locking the variable for read in code has the same effect:
public void Main()
// Lock variable for read
Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead("User::myStringVariable");
// Create a variables 'container' to store variables
Variables vars = null;
// Add variable from the VariableDispenser to the variables 'container'
Dts.VariableDispenser.GetVariables(ref vars);
// Now try giving it a new name
vars["User::myStringVariable"].Value = "new value";
// Release the locks
vars.Unlock();
Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success;

Change Tracking internals behave differently, SQL Server 2012 vs SQL Server 2008

<original post by Glenn Estrada>
Reposting an issue from Stack Overflow that a coworker and I are dealing with.
In trouble shooting an issue with synchronizing disconnected devices with a central database server using Sync Framework 1.0, we are experiencing a problem after upgrading to SQL Server 2012 on the server. It appears that the CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION
is returning a value 1 higher than it should (or at least than it did prior to the upgrade.)
I have been working thru Arshad
Ali's great walk thru example of how to set up a simple example.
I have run the scripts from #1 thru #5 to insert, delete, and update a row in the Employee table in both a SQL Server 2008 and a 2012 environment.
In 2008, the following statement returns a 0:
SELECT CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION(OBJECT_ID('Employee'))
In 2012, it returns a 1.
In working thru a few more scripts (6-8) in the tests, I set the retention period to 1 minute to hopefully force a cleanup action. I left for the day and apparently it ran overnight.
In the 2008 instance, the CHANGE_TRACKING_CURRENT_VERSION and the CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION are equal (11). In the 2012 instance, the CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION is one higher (12) than the CHANGE_TRACKING_CURRENT_VERSION (11). This could have
an impact to the synchronization process when a database is idle for extended periods of time. And we have found that process could get caught in a loop, especially when the following test is performed to determine if a re-initialization, as opposed to synchronization,
is required:
IF CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION(object_id(N'dbo.Employee')) > @sync_last_received_anchor
RAISERROR (N'SQL Server Change Tracking has cleaned up tracking information for table ''%s''...
Has anyone else experienced this change in behavior? Does anyone have an explanation?

Can SSIS 2012 execute packages built on 2008 R2 BI for 2008 R2 SQL Server?

We have a query regarding SSIS instalattion on application server. As SQL Server 2008 R2 is getting out of life, DBAs are suggesting to install SSIS 2012. Now our concern is
that our SQL Server DB Server is on 2008 R2, and developers are building packages using SSIS 2008.
Considering we deploy file packages, and backward compatibility, theoretically it shall work. There are 3 things here -
1. {2008 R2 SSIS Package} ------ Deployed On -------> 2. {Server with 2012 SSIS installation} ------- Connects to -------> 3. {SQL Server 2008 R2 DB Instance}
Any recommendation on this. Would it work? Anything which could cause issue?
As we have to pay for license, do not want be in a situation where we pay for SSIS 2012 installation on server (#2 above) and then realize that there is some issue
Regards, Amit Gupta

Hi Amit,
Just as Visakh and hsbal said, there will be no issues as SSIS 2012 will work with standard previous versions of SQL Server packages. But some custom SSIS Tasks can always throw error after upgrading packages from SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012.
About this, please remember to do the following things:
Change your custom tasks and components to target the .NET 4.0 Framework in each of the project properties, in the Application Tab, under Target framework.
Update the assembly references in each of your projects to point to the appropriate SqlServer dlls.
Build and copy your project dlls to the appropriate directory, depending on what kind of components you are updating, i.e. Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DTS\PiplelineComponents
Register your components in the GAC.
Close Visual Studio and then reopen; open your SSIS packages and refresh the SSIS Toolbox, by right clicking in the tool box and selected Refresh Toolbox.
Besides, if some of your script task throw errors to you, we can open the script task in VSTA, insert Breakpoint to debug the scripts, then find the root cause. For more details, please see:
Debug a Script by Setting Breakpoints in a Script Task and Script Component

If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account, how can I setup individual notifications for each account. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work to be different than perso

If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account on my iPhone 4s, How can I setup individual notifications for each account? Fore example, if I get a work email, I want to hear a DING, DING....If I get a personal email, I want to hear a BEEP, BEEP. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work incoming email notification to be different than personal incoming notification. The only semi-workaround I've seen is just disable any notification for the Hotmail account, so only work emails would notify. But then I don't know when I get a personal email. Even the lowely Blackberry Torch 9800 has this feature..not iPhone 4s??
Thanks

Sorry you get only one notification sound for all email accounts. you can send a suggestion to apple here http://www.apple.com/feedback/

SSIS 2012 package scheduling with SQL Server 2008 R2

Hi, We have a ssis 2012 package with parameters & would like to schedule this package in SQL Server 2008 R2 agent. Is there a way to pass parameters to the ssis package from SQL Server 2008 R2 agent?
Thanks in advance..........
Ione

You cant use SQL 2008 R2 to schedule it as dtexec 2008 cant execute package created using SSIS 2012. The inverse can be done though

Will Report Builder 2012 Work with SQL Server 2008???

Simple question really
Will Report Builder 2012 work in conjunction with SQL Server 2008???
Is it worth while upgrading?
The main reason i ask is the ability to export in an xlsx format
Thanks

Hi Gmach,
The version of Report Builder on SQL Server Reporting Service (SSRS) 2012 is Report Builder 3.0. The Report Builder 3.0 manufactures 2010 RDL reports, so it only works with the version of SQL Server 2008 R2 or later. So in your scenario, we can no connect
to SQL Server 2008 Server using Report Builder that on SSRS 2012.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
