SSIS started showing NONE text qualifier as _x003C_none_x003E_

Hi All,
We have SQL cluster, after the active node changed from 1 to 2 over the weekend our SSIS package started to apply this kind of code (_x003C_none_x003E_) instead of meaningfull text qualifiers (in this case is NONE), but there are other cases like _x007C_ 
for example in the csv files it generates.
No changes in SQL or windows, so changing the node seems to be the only change in the environment.
SQL server version is: 10.50.2500.0 SP1 Standard Edition (64-bit)
After switching back from 2 to 1 the files were back to normal again.
Does anybody know what affects the text qualifier in SSIS and how can we make sure that it works correctly on either node?
Thanks!

  • SSIS none text qualifier results in text file containing "_x003C_none_x003E"

    There is a bug in SSIS when exporting data from SQL to a comma delimited text file where you specified no text qualifier.
    This bug apparently only occurs when you develop the SSIS on a x64 win7 PC and copy the .dtsx file (windows explorer copy/paste) to network path of a x86 SQL server and schedule the job to run from SQL Agent on the same x86 SQL server.
    When the SSIS runs, the text file is written out containing text qualifier = "“_x003C_none_x003E".
    If you look at "
    _x003C_none_x003E", it actually means <none>.  x003C = "<" and x003E = ">".
    If you go into the SSIS package, double-click in the connection manager section to open the flat file connection manager editor and try to clear the text qualifier removing the <none>,
    the <none> value get added back in.
    The only work-around is to NOT open the
    flat file connection manager editor, but instead make the change using the property window and clear out any value in the TextQualifier field.
    Other similar problems occur when you actually want to put a real value in the text qualifier.  For explain if you select the double-quote as the text qualifier and copy to a
    x86 server and run, you end up with a text file containing the value "
    _x0022" around each field instead of a double quote.
    In my mind this is a serious bug, I did some research and other people have been having this same issue.
    FYI, the SQL server is currently SQL2008 with SP2.  I will try to get it updated to SP3/4 this weekend to see that will help.
    FYI2, when I am developing the SSIS using VS2008 and my local test/run is done through visual studio on my Dev PC (x64).  Everything works fine this way.  I do not have a instance of SQL on my machine so I did not test it running from SQL Agent
    on my PC.

    Todd,
    Sorry to revive an older post, but we are currently running into this problem...again, but this is happening on SQL Server 2008 R2 SSIS servers and the corresponding developer machines.
    Everything that I'm finding in forums and blogs pretty much points that this is an issue with build mismatches (i.e. one system not being caught up to the server while others are), but I have yet to find anything that really outlines how to properly rectify
    the situation and prevent it from happening going forward.
    Currently all but our production server (from a server perspective) are exactly the same version numbers (same CU applied).
    I can't really speak to all of the developer boxes, but mine matches all but the production server (production is showing a lower number than the expected 10.50.2500.0).
    As shown below, what is really odd is the second entry and last entry.  Second entry is showing SP1 as the generic identifier, but yet shows Build 7600.
    The bottom one shows RTM in the generic identifier, but yet shows Build 7601 Service Pack 1, and the version number isn't the expected 10.50.2500.0.

  • SSIS importing comma delimited with double quote text qualifier - Works in VS - SQL Job ignores text qualifier and fails (truncation)

    I've created an SSIS package to import a comma delimited file (csv) with double quotes for a text qualifier ("). Some of the fields contain the delimiter inside the qualified text. An example row is:
    15,"Doe, John",IS2,Alabama
    In SSIS I've specified the text qualifier as ". The sample output in the connection manager looks great. The package runs perfectly from VS and when manually executed on the SSIS server itself. The problem comes when I schedule the package to run via SQL
    job. At this point the package ignores the text qualifier, and in doing so pushes half of a field into the next available column. But instead of having too many columns, it concatenates the last 2 columns ignoring the delimiter. For example (pipes are fields):
    15|"Doe| John"|IS2,Alabama
    So the failure happens when the last half of a field is too large to fit into the next available field. In the case above _John" is 6 characters where the IS2 field is char(3). This would cause a truncation failure, which is the error I receive from the
    job history.
    To further test this I created a failure flow in my data flow to capture the records failing to be pulled from the source csv. Out of ~5000 records, ~1200 are failing, and every one of the failures has a comma delimiter inside the quoted text with a 'split'
    length greater than the next ordinal field. The ones without the comma were inserted as normal and records where the split fit into the next ordinal column where also imported, with the last field being concatenated w/delimiter. Example records when selected
    from table:
    25|"Allan Percone Trucking"|GI6|California --Imported as intended
    36|"Renolds| J."|UI6,Colorado --Field position offset by 1 to right - Last field overloaded
    To further ensure this is the problem, I changed the csv file and flat file connection manager to pipe delimited, and sure enough every record makes it in perfectly from the SQL job execution.
    I've tried comma delimited on the following set ups. Each set up failed.
    SSIS Server 2008 R2 RTM
    DB Server 2008 RTM
    DB Compat 80
    SSIS Server 2008 R2 RTM
    DB Server 2008 R2 RTM
    DB Compat 80
    SSIS Server 2008 R2 RTM
    DB Server 2008 RTM
    DB Compat 100
    SSIS Server 2008 R2 RTM
    DB Server 2008 R2 RTM
    DB Compat 100
    Since a lot of our data comes in via comma delimited flat files, I really need a fix for this. If not I'll have to rebuild all my files when I import them to use pipe delimiters instaed of commas. I'd like to avoid the extra processing overhead if possible.
    Also, is this a known bug? If so can someone point me to the posting of said bug?
    Edit: I can't ask the vendor to change the format to pipe delimited because it comes from a federal government site.

    Just wanted to share my experience of this for anyone else since I wasted a morning on it today.
    I encountered the same problem where I could run the package fine on my machine but when I deployed to a server and ran the package via dtexec, the " delimeter was being replaced with _x0022_ and columns all slurped up together and overflowing columns/truncating
    data etc.
    Since I didn't want to manually hack the DTS XML and can't install updates, the solution I used was to set an expression on the textdelimiter field of the flat file connection with the value "\"" (a double quote). That way, even if the one stored in XML
    gets bodged somewhere along the way, it is overridden with the correct value at run time. The package works fine everywhere now.

  • Attachments show as text

    It happened to me twice now that I got an email with attachments, I believe both times it was through my .mac account, which makes Mail painfully slow to begin with.
    Anyway, it has this funky behavior of showing a message before the attachments are downloading, so you start seeing the attached content as it downloads, but if you switch to another message and then back to the message with attachments they end up being gone...it's all text.
    In the last case it even "forgot" the sender's name and address in the header.
    It just went blank.
    Well, I guess that's called a bug, but I thought I post it here anyways...

    My only reference to POP was to say that I do not receive many large attachments in my .mac account, and yes, I would NOT expect any problems with your POP accounts.
    My statement about IMAP accounts was made because .mac accounts, set up as .mac type (you can use POP, but .mac is default when setting up) operate in the same way as IMAP accounts. IMAP access in Mail 2.0 is flawed, and with some IMAP servers, attachments, or at least large attachments, simply do not display, and we have found no setting or other change to correct.
    I have not seen the same problem reported, previously, for a .mac account. I would like to know the number of messages in your .mac Inbox, and also what is the size reported for the messages where the attachments show as text?
    I also would like you to test with selecting to NOT save messages and their attachments for Offline viewing -- there is no risk to messages, as they remain on the server, but it could be important to see if this makes any change to your situation.

  • Show standard texts on document

    Hi all,
    Our customers have the need to show some text on the bottom of some documents (invoice, order confirmation). Normally, I would use SO10 for the text. No problem there.
    In general, those texts have a limited time in which they should be printed on the documents. Is there a way (or table) in which you can define texts as well as a start date and/or an ending date?
    Any other solution is also welcome
    Thanks.

    Hi Karin,
    it just depends on what date is the correct one to check. Todays date is in SY-DATUM always included and always available.
    In your case, it is a invoice and I can imagine that the VBRK-ERDAT (date when the invoice is created) or even the VBRK-FKDAT (date when the invoice is booked) maybe also a good solution.
    Both fields are included in the structure VBDKR by the way
    For your order confirmation have a look in table VBAK / VBDKA. The fields there are ERDAT and AUDAT I think.
    The select statement should look something like that:
    Select single ... from     yourtable
                            into     yourstructure
                            where datefrom <= sy-datum
                               and dateto    >= sy-datum.
    IF sy-subrc = 0.
    *whatever you want to do now
    ENDIF.

  • Recently started not receiving texts from one person - AT&T user, also HTC One

    I recently started not receiving texts from one person. He also has an HTC One (older model) but has AT&T as his provider. We were texting back and forth last Friday morning (11/8) and then he called me and ever since then I have not received a single text he has sent. He is receiving all of mine and we can receive phone calls back and forth, but his text messages are not coming through. We have both tried restarting our phones and I have also tried deleting him as a contact and recreating it however nothing works. I checked to make sure he was not blocked (which I knew wasn't the case since I could receive phone calls from him as well), and even tried turning the "block contact" on and back off. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated. Right now we are using work arounds with google-talk and facebook messenger but it's very frustrated for me to not receive any of the texts that his phone is saying I am receiving.
    It had started sporadically over the past few weeks where I would miss a text from him every once in awhile, but now I am receiving nothing. He is the only one that I am having this issue with as I have texted back and forth with multiple others the past few days with no issues.
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    Hi!  I'm also having the same problem.  I have an iphone 5 & one person (who also has an iphone 5 but has AT&T as a provider).  We had been able to send & receive phone calls & texts until mid-November.  Now, we can both give & receive phone calls from each other and she receives my texts, however, I DON"T receive hers. In fact, if I'm in a group text message with her,  I don't receive any of the texts  that include her, even though I can give/receive texts individually from the others in the group message. The other two in the group message CAN receive both her texts & mine. This is so strange - I was left out of a whole thread of text messages & none of us knew it.  They thought they were including me (nothing bounced back) & I didn't know I wasn't receiving them. Since her texting works with both of the others, I'm concluding the problem must be with my phone.  Do I have an incorrect setting?  I'm not sure what could have happened.  PLEASE help! 

  • Can I export just the "show" conditional text to a mif?

    When I export a document with conditional text to a pdf, just the conditional text that is set to "show" (and the unconditional text) appears in the pdf.  That's good, but I want the same thing when exporting a mif.  There are two reasons for this:
    (1)  We have an in-house tool that parses a mif and extracts data from certain tables to populate a database.  The tool doesn't parse pdfs.  And the tool won't always handle conditional text correctly, particularly conditional text table rows.  The tool would work fine if the conditional text were already "resolved" during the export to mif.
    (2)  I'd like to use the Boolean logic for conditional text that is available in FM9, but I need to furnish files to other groups in the company that use FM7.  Their FM7 wouldn't display conditional text properly if it depended on anything other than OR logic.  But they would be happy to accept mif files that didn't have any conditional text because it had been "resolved" when I generated a mif7 file for them.
    I've tried various ways to convert a pdf into a mif file, but no process seems to preserve the formatting and the editable text. I'd be willing to accomplish this in some round-about fashion involving Framemaker, Acrobat Pro and/or some other tool. 
    But the happiest outcome for me would be to discover that FM9 already has the ability to export just the "show" conditional text and the unconditional text to a mif. 
    Or can this be done by making a copy of the document and then somehow automating the deletion of the "hide" conditional text and the conversion of the "show" conditional text to unconditional?

    Or can this be done by making a copy of the document and then somehow automating the deletion of the "hide" conditional text and the conversion of the "show" conditional text to unconditional?
    Writing a custom script to filter the MIF to parse out the conditions is non-trivial. You can try a Google search for an existing filter or script that does the job. However, if there is no such thing, then you're on the right track, getting FM to do the hard part - filtering the conditionalized content correctly. For example:
    * In a copy of the original file, delete the condition(s) you want to hide; during the deletion, you have the option to delete the corresponding text. Then save as MIF to a descriptive name, or save as .fm to a new name, then open and save that file as MIF. Close the source file without saving.
    * Reopen the source file and do the same process from this fresh instance, deleting the condition(s) you want to show. Save as above.
    * Within FM itself, however, there's no way to automate this process. With one of the free FM utilities - dobatch from cudspan, or dzbatcher from datazone - you can script opening and saving an FM file as MIF. Search Google for dobatch, cudspan, dzbatcher, or datazone.
    * To automate setting the conditions, a keystroke-macro recorder might serve, otherwise you'd need the commercial FrameScript product, and a customized script if there's no existing script for this purpose. For FrameScript info, check with Rick Quattro at frameexpert.com. 
    * If you're using Structured FrameMaker and have the expertise available to customize an EDD, you could take advantage of the "filter by attribute" feature, but it's not trivial to adopt Structured FM just for this narrowly-focused need.

  • Why do webpages show only text?

    On my website only half of my pages show up correctly. The other half only shows the text in a single paragraph.

  • Schedule Webi report to CSV - text qualifier

    Hi
    We are running the latest version of Business Objects 4.0 SP04 (FP3) with Patch 1.
    I am having a problem scheduling a Webi report to CSV format. The text qualifier option only allows the choice of ' (single quote). Not only is the text qualifier on text fields - it's also on numeric fields. This obviously causes a problem for Excel and other systems.
    Is there a way of removing or replacing this text qualifier or preventing numeric fields from been wrapped with the text qualifier?
    We are not having this problem with the interactive "Save as - TXT file" option.
    Thanks for any input on this.
    Kieran

    Hi Experts,
    Seeking your opinion on the following issue,
    We are in version SAP BO 4.0 SP 4 Update
    While trying to schedule a report with as CSV, the only option available as the Text qualifier is single quote ( ' ). Any sort of clue on why we don't see the option "None" listed in the combo?
    Thanks,

  • BO Webi Export to CSV Text Qualifier opt xir3 sp5 Full build vs Upgrade path

    Hi, can anybody tell me how I can get the 3 option (space) as a Text Qualifier when saving a Webi doc as a CSV. In Prod we have upgraded to SP5 thru the modify path on the install media and do not have this option. In Dev we did a fresh install of SP5 using the same media disc and there we get a 3rd option when saving to csv. both versions are XIR3 sp5 but show different builds via the CMC. Is this option controlled by an xml property file on the app server? Refreshing the Prod instance with a new BO install is not a good option - too many obstacles. This is the only difference I've noted and one that is causing an extra step to strip off double quotes from scheduled Webi docs delivered as CSV files to a file share in Prod.
    Dev: Build Date:  2012/02/17:02:04:34
    Build Number:  1265
    Product Version:  12.5.0.1265
    Prod: Build Date:  2011/11/29:21:00:17
    Build Number:  1190
    Product Version:  12.5.0.1190
    I've attached the screen shots illustrating the issue. Bottom line is that I need the Space option as a Text Qualifier. Any ideas how to acquire this 3rd option? Thanks.

    Hi,
    Check the mentioned SAP Note for this issue. 1997321 - In XI 3.1 SP6, when trying to export a Web Intelligence report, the blank option for Save as CSV is not in the drop down as it should be
    Workaround:
    Stop Tomcat
    In the <BusinessObjects install>\Tomcat55 or Tomcat7\webapps\AnalyticalReporting\WEB-INF\classes\ folder, make a backup of the webiviewer.properties file.
    Then edit the file in a text editor and locate the line CSV_CharDelimmiter=” ‘
    Add a blank space at the end of this file and save it.
    Delete the contents of the Tomcat55 or Tomcat7\work\ directory
    Restart Tomcat
    The blank text qualifier should now appear in the DHTML viewer.
