HI I am unable to see the rows flowing in the Dataflow while running from visual studio in VS2013 not sure how to enable it.
I tried looking in tools options but didn't find any clue.
Thanks
Hi After a awful lot of time found out that Microsoft have buggered up once again as the annotation colour is white and will not be able to change it to any colour in the Dark Theme.
Found out from below link
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/910798/ssis-annotations-in-ssdt-2013-invisible-in-dark-color-theme
In the data flow task, right click on the connector between the two components and click Enable Data Viewer
When you next run the package a window will appear which shows the data being transfered between the components

I make integration service project using data tools Visual Studio . I have encountered with a problem. There are no toolbox elements on the menu in data tool Visual Studio. I want to return it back in order to make my project . I have reset default settings but it didn't help . Also I have the feeling that my project opens in the Visual Studio environment instead of SQl server data tools . I upload screenshot as well
This can be confusing as sometimes you will see the normal toolbox that appear empty as you are not working on a UI such as windows forms. There is a menu item SSIS, under that is SSIS toolbox.
I am trying to learn SSIS and came across this problem where I wanted to add OLE Destination and Source.
My SSIS Toolbox is missing lots of stuff, and when I right click I don't get the choose item option (showing at the bottom of the screenshot)
If I go to the normal Toolbox Menu and right click and choose item, the choose item dialog doesn't have option to add SSIS items.
What is wrong? Can you help please?
You're looking in the wrong place. The screenshot shows the Control Flow. These are Tasks.
There is a special design surface for a Task called "Data Flow Task." Add one of those to the Control Flow and then you'll be able to access OLE DB Source?/Destination, etc.
I'm having a very peculiar issue with SQL Server Data Tools 2012. Whenever I attempt to launch the report previewer, I get the following exception:
There was no endpoint listening at net.pipe://localhost/PreviewProcessingServce7324/ReportProcessing that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more deatils.
As far as I can tell, nothing I did triggered the issue. It just started happening one day when I fired up SSDT. I tried the suggestion on
Report Designer Preview in SSDT throws up a 'end point' not found error.
However, my service is up and running just fine (restarting it didn't help), and using Setspn didn't do anything for it, either.
Anyone have any ideas?
That is a current bug in SSDT-BI. The current workaround for now is to right click on the report you want to preview in your Solution Explorer and click RUN.
You will also notice that if you try to preview the report for the first time a command prompt window opens up that runs the preview process, If you don't close this window and just minimize it then you can preview the report but I think the RUN method is much easier for now. Please mark as answer if this helped.
This can happen when you have some SQL Services installed and running on your machine that interfere with the Report Preview. You can check your current services by going opening Sql Server Configuration Manager:
To fix this you can do the following:
Type WinKey + R, input services.msc in the Run box, and press Enter.
Find the "Net.Pipe Listener Adapter" and either Restart or Disable it.
The workaround, as SQLnbe mentioned, is to:
Right Click the RDLC file from solution explorer
Click "Run" from there which will open up a new window.
The Preview issue was resolved for me when I deleted the .DATA files associated with the solution.
In my case I tried all the above solutions, and:
"Run" from context menu does not really work for me, as it's much, much longer than preview in VS2017, as rendering was a deciding factor in my work (lots of grouping by column etc). and render is much faster in VS compared to SSRS,
Could not find listed .Net services on my laptop,
Deleting DATA files did not fixed the issue either,
VS restart and reloading the solution.
I'm not sure if it was points 3 and 4 together that actually did the trick, but I'm putting it out there - just in case it actually is the procedure that will work for others, which is to try option 4.
I need to also note that this issue started after there was a momentary connection dropout. I need to work with WIFI instead LAN due to necessity to be roam-able, and every time I undock the laptop all my connections in SSMS are lost (and with them all the temp tables etc).
I faced the same issue and solved it.
Steps:
Right click on the report.
Click view code.
Check the parameters names in both query parameters and report parameters and make sure it's written correctly.
Close the report and open it again
Thanks
This is what I did:
Restart the .Net.Pipe service in the service console. This didn't resolve the issues.
Closed Visual Studio completely and relaunch the Visual Studio 2017 (in my case).
It seem that the preview is back. It could be the combination of (1) and (2).
None of the solution above worked for me. What did I found and it worked is to run Visual Studio as administrator.
Just closing the visual Studio by ending task with task manager and re-opening the solution worked for me to get through the error.
I see several examples that show how to use the Execute SQL task. One such example I see this screen shot:
There are a lot of tasks there that I don't have in my task list. The one I am looking for is "Execute SQL".
I also note that they don't have "OLE DB Command" (which is what I would usually use to call SQL).
Do I just have a different version? Is "OLE DB Command" the successor to "Execute SQL"? Or is there some way to get the stuff I am missing?
You might be inside a Data Flow - that will only show you items related to a Data Flow (Data Flow Sources, Data Flow Transformations, Data Flow Destinations).
If you are in the Control Flow, and cannot see the items you indicate as missing, you can right click to add.
This will give you a dialog box where you can choose the items that you want to add
In SQL 2012 / VS 2010, the Execute SQL Task only appears in the Favorites bar at the top. This is confusing - why is it only a favourite?
You can however right-click and "move" to Common, but not "copy" to Common:
I had this issue in VS 2010 and VS 2012. To fix it, here's what I had to do:
Exit Visual Studio
Navigate to %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio
Go to the folder for your version (e.g. 11.0 for VS 2012)
Rename all *.tbd files, e.g. to *.tbd.old
Open visual studio
Open toolbox by going to View > Other Windows > SSIS Toolbox

I have created a SSAS project and it works perfectly fine my cubes, data-sources and such first time I deploy the cube, but if I change the data in my database and I click Cube>Process in BIDS it will not reflect the new changes even though when I retrieve the table data in SQL server Management Studio the table shows my data is changed.
I have also tried updating the cube in SSIS package using the Analysis Services Processing Task. However, the changes in my underlying data is not shown. It stays the same. Can anybody give me the few possible scenarios that can cause this problem.
Much appreciated
Thanks in Advance
First step is to verify that the datasource ON THE SERVER (not locally on your dev machine) is set to the correct database.
Are you processing the whole project or just the cube? I noticed that I have to process the top level item in the solution explorer. Processing just the cube was not enough.
Do you get any error messages?
Try processing the dimensions first and then process the cube.
I am not an expert myself, but I understood that there is a difference between updating ("process") and "deploy".
So when you create or add dimensions you will first have to deploy the cube to the analysis server and then process it.
Later when there is new data in your datasource, you can just process the cube (it's already deployed) to update the data.
Try this:
Identify which Dimension or Fact Table data you have updated.
Goto the SSAS project you have created in Visual Studio for the CUBE.
In the Solution Explorer expand Dimensions folder.
Right Click the Dimension or Dimension related fact table for which data is updated and Click on Process.
Then once the Process window is opened then do confirm in the window then Object Name = and Process Option = "Process Update".
Then Click on run on the bottom of the Process window.
Verify the process is succeed, if failed then fix the errors.
Go to Browser Tab of the CUBE and check the data is updated.
Any changes made to the cube structure i.e. adding new measure(s) or business intel. will reflect merely after processing the cube, there is no need to deploy the whole project again. However if any changes are made in underlying data or data structure, then the whole project needs to be deployed.
Changes can be seen right after processing/deployment in Cube>Browser but will take some time to be realized in SSRS because of caching.
