I'm trying to load a CSV data into mysql from talend studio and getting the below mentioned error:
Couldn't parse value for column 'RegisterTime' in 'row1', value is '1974-10-22 08:46:40.000'. Details: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unparseable date: "1974-10-22 08:46:40.000"
Field RegisterTime has the data type as 'Date' and format as yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.SSS while defining the schema as metadata in the talend studio.
Am I using an incorrect format? Any help in suggesting the right format would be great.
This is probably a Date pattern problem even though the one you indicate is the right one. You should make sure this pattern is used in the component itself by going to the component view -> "Edit Schema".
because has millisecond,'RegisterTime' the data type should be 'DATETIME' and length is 3.try again

I've created a table in SQL Server 2016 with this definition:
CREATE TABLE Stage.Test (f1 DATE NULL);
INSERT INTO Stage.Test (f1) VALUES ('1/1/2000');
Notice the f1 column uses the DATE data type.
Then I created a data flow task in SQL Server Data Tools (VS 2019) to load data from that table. I created an OLEDB Source Component and set the source table to Stage.Test. But when I examine the data type of the "f1" column (in both the 'External Column' and 'Output Column' columns), it says it's a Unicode string:
Why is it choosing a Unicode string instead of DT_DATE?
I haven't seen this exact example when it comes to date fields but SSIS converts data automatically when it has detected the field to be of a certain type. Perhaps it's the '/' in your date field that does it. We do not use this date format over in these parts of the world so I've never had the problem. You can especially see this when you import excel files with SSIS. I usually have this problem with strings where unicode strings can sometimes become non-unicode strings.
A way to fix could be to:
edit the sql query to explicitly cast the field as date
add a conversion step in the data flow after the source (like a derived column getting the parts of the string in the right order)
try to change the output datatype by right clicking on the source in the data flow and using the advanced editor and then edit the output column datatype:
SSIS Source Advanced Editor Output
I'm not sure if that 3 would work with this date format issue as I do not have experience with the format myself but it is working fine for my unicode/non-unicode problem.
I have an SSIS package which has been working for years, and all of a sudden it has stopped working, with the error:
An exception has occurred during data insertion, the message returned from the provider is: The given value of type String from the data source cannot be converted to type nvarchar of the specified target column.
All of my strings are already converted to DT_WSTR in derived columns. Something must have changed in my input flat file format, because it still works on files produced a week ago. I've analysed the difference between the working version and the new failed version in beyond compare, and there are no differences in format or encoding. It has 100+ columns, and with no indication of which column is causing the problem, it is very hard to diagnose.
Any ideas? Thanks
Haha, actually, not all the columns were being case to DT_WSTR. Once I made sure every single field was being cast to DT_WSTR of the appropriate length, the import succeeded.
We are trying to push a single order in to MS CRM (dev instance) via SSIS package.
Most of the columns coming from source (staging table) are of data type 'DT_STR' and their mapped fields in CRM are of 'DT_WSTR' data type.
I already looked for the solution on this site but in all cases the question is for converting wstr to str. In my case I need to convert str to wstr. when I run the package I get error saying,
Column xxxx cannot convert between unicode and non unicode string data type
I have already tried two solution:
1. Right click on the OLE source and convert datatype to wstr and
2. Using 'Data Conversion'
In both cases the error remains the same. Has anyone else had similar issue?
In OLE DB Source properties don't change data types. If you want you can change in
SELECT statement in OLE DB source.
you can change in 'Data Conversion'
Derived Column element
In Derived Column element code is:
(DT_WSTR, 50)([YourString])
Don't replace column, add new column in Derived column element.
You doing something wrong if you can't convert, you don't give real error message (or picture of your design), real error message is in Output window when you execute the package.
I am developing a SSIS package that will open an Excel spreadsheet and import the data into a database table in SQL Server 2008. When I try to convert the Excel column data type: Unicode String [DT_WSTR] to a unique identifier data type: unique identifier [DT_GUID], I get the following error:
"Invalid character value for cast specification"
What do I need to do to resolve the conversion error?
I used a Derived Column Transformation Editor and to wrap the excel column value in squrly brackets {} in order for the SSIS package to properly convert the Unicode String into a GUID.
I want to mention that this will not work with SSIS 2012 in Visual Studio. If you try to do this you get an error on the derived column transformation task. I've tried both of these:
(DT_GUID)[ColumnName]
(DT_GUID)("{" + [ColumnName] + "}")
Both of these will fail.
However, if you simply set to ignore those errors instead of fail. It will work fine. Really spend way too much time trying to get this to work.
my date format is in this format YYYYMMDD and when I am converting the same with data conversion task I am getting below error:
The data value cannot be converted for reasons other than sign mismatch or Data Overflow.
In my Dataconversion I have select DT_DATE
and in database the column datatype is date.
But the strange thing is that when I am executing my package and doing casting as source SELECT CAST(myDate AS DATE) package is working fine.
It's a common issue. If you use a derived column transformation, you will need to slice it out into the component parts (years, months, days) and then concatenate it back together before casting. That's ugly and time consuming for me.
Instead, assuming this is coming from a flat file, just make it a date on import by setting the type in your connection manager to the date type that will be compatible with your destination. Then on your flat file source, under advanced settings, set FastParse to true for that column. See my answer on Import String Date in Derived column for a pictoral walkthrough of it.
