i have updated the old SSIS Load package. i have changed the variable names and some other stuff but when i try to execute package it gives me error for old variable names that variable not found. now i checked it so many times, i have no old variable name defined anywhere then why its giving me error for previous variable names?
Thanks
Hard to diagnose your issue without any error messages or detail, but you could view the xml (think it's View menu, then Code), and search the XML text for any instances of the old variable that is throwing the error.
Best guess is that you are referencing the old variable name in an expression somewhere. If you are allowed in your environment, download BIDS Helper. It will highlight expressions for you to make them easier to find and correct.

I have a solution full of SSIS projects, and I'm trying to build a single one via command line. I know I need to use the devenv.com executable, and if I use devenv.com solution.sln /Rebuild it will process the whole set of projects. However, I cannot seem to get the additional parameters correct. When I try devenv.com solution.sln /Rebuild "Development" /Project "projname", I get an enigmatic The operation could not be completed. The parameter is incorrect. Which parameter? What should it be? I've tried replicating this answer's syntax, but I get the same error. How do I find out what parameter is incorrect? So far the closest I can get is to rename the .sln file so it can't be found and just specify the .dtproj file.
Hi I'm looking for help with the following issue:
In TFS on our SSRS report server whenever I run any of the out the box Sprint Burndown reports the report seems to run successfully but I get the following error in the bottom right hand corner:
Through some research I found that the issue was due to the field definitions in that particular Collection not matching the other collections that we have in TFS. Simple...
In order to determine which field definition in the collection was the issue I used the witadmin command listfields for all of my collections:
witadmin listfields /collection:Collection /n:Microsoft.VSTS.Common.ReviewedBy
This led me to find that the Synchronizes Identity Name Changes definition in the collection mentioned in the TF293000 error was set to a value of true, while it is false in all of my other collections. Issue Found! Should be easy from here...wrong.
The following command should solve my problem:
witadmin changefield /collection:Collection /n:Microsoft.VSTS.Common.ReviewedBy /syncnamechanges:false
*of course with the proper collection url subbed in for the word Collection
However when run and after I confirm that I want to make the change I get the following error:
TF401327: The operation is not supported. The feature is obselete.
I look the error up and it takes me to this page TFS Known Issue which tells me it's a known issue but was resolved in update 1 ... we have update 3.
I then attempted to simply edit the WIT .xml file and update the attribute for that WIT on that collection with false, but when I import the change to the server it tells me it has imported successfully however when I export it I see that the file has not changed.
I have also tried copying the the .xml file from the same WIT in another collection and uploading that to the offending collection and that will not work. I've never had an issue with uploading a WIT as we've made several changes to our TFS workflow before. I'm pretty stuck at this point and just wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue before, thanks!
According to the error info, seems there is a conflict in the TFS Data warehouse and this because 2 fields in different collection has different attributes in the data warehouse as it’s only one data warehouse. To avoid schema conflicts when you export and process data to the data warehouse databases, you must assign the same values to these attributes across all collections:
Field type (the value for this field cannot be changed for an
existing field).
Reporting type.
Reporting name.
What you have done is the correct operation, change/update the attribute for the field in one project collection to match the assignments that are made in other project collections.
You could try to narrow the issue, if this issue only happened on that specific field in the team project collection. All other work item filed working correctly? Also give a try with other collections, such as change the syncnamechanges=true, then set it back to syncnamechanges=false, to see if any issue occurs.
Run the command line on TFS sever machine instead of your develop machine. Clear TFS cahce. And if the filed is not use for reporting about those project collections, you could also try to mark it as non-reportable. More details please refer below links:

Usually, in a dtsx Standard Report, there is a column "Message Source Name" that indicates which dtsx threw the error or raised the event.
Now i get "Transact-SQL stored procedure" and of course I don't have such a dtsx.
So, question #1 is: Where should I go to check the error?
Besides, the error is: An error occurred while setting the value of a property "InitialCatalog". The error returned is 0x80020009. The connection string components cannot contain unquoted semicolons....
My dtsx were doing fine and I was publishing dtsx on a regular basis with no problems. Then, I changed the name of a ConnectionManager and took care of changing this name wherever it appeared.
After this fateful move, I cannot manage to restore the previous situation. Even rollbacking all changes through TFS and going back to the previous names doesn't solve the matter.
I checked also the environment I am using and the configuration of the job that launches the dtsx, to no avail.
If I execute the dtsx on my development machine, from visual studio, it works fine. The problem arises in production enviroment when I use the job configured with the environment. In the project configuration and in the environment configuration I don't see what an "unquoted semicolumn" could be.
The value of the connection string that is indicated as having an error looks like:
Data Source=11.1.1.11,1111;Initial Catalog=MyDB;Provider=SQLNCLI11.1; Integrated Security=SSPI ;Auto Translate=False;
Question #2 is: Where could this connection string with unquoted semicolon be?
Thx.
With much effort I managed to find an answer to Question #2:
I am using parametrized connection managers, so I have a project parameter (let's call it PP1) in my dtsx with the connString.
During configuration of the SSIS project I need to give a value ONLY for the parameter PP1, and NOT for the connection string.
What I did wrong was to give the Environment Variable with the connString to the Property "Initial Catalog". Therefore, SSIS was lamenting of the presence of ";" (the ones in the connString) in the InitialCatalog.
I was trying to load a table from Excel Source to SQL Server Destination with a data conversion transformation task using SSIS Package. but when I ran the package, it failed with the following error messages

I had the same issue, and found that the file I was attempting to import had a non-printing character at the end of the second header. Removing this fixed the issue.
Since you're looking to resolve this "urgently", I'll make both a short-term and long-term suggestion:
1) For the short-term, a practical approach:
Does it work, in your situation, to load the spreadsheet in sections?
Will it hurt anything, for you to re-try/re-do the load multiple times, to find the problem?
Or, can you try this load in a test environment?
If so, then try loading the first-half, or the first-1/4, or first 10 rows, etc., until you find the row that's causing the problem. At the very least, you can then load everything but that row... at best, maybe the problem will be easy to find, at that point.
2) For the long-term... do you (or somebody there) have access to modifying the SSIS package?
If so, then I recommend coding error row redirection, within the Data Flow Task: rows with problems go to another destination (red arrow), while rows without problems go to the usual destination (green arrow).
For more on error row redirection, see these links:
A) Intro: Handling Errors in Data
B) Some issues others have run into:
Programmatically configuring error and truncation dispositions for row redirection
Hope that helps...
How should a program handle errors? Example:
A program needs the file text.txt. It must exist and be writable. What should it do if it's not writable or doesn't exist? Should it try to chown/chmod the file? Should it try to create it or just display an error message?
Or: Should it try to find a solution or just display an error message?
It's up to you how to handle it. You have to define your scenarios, user interactions, and other parts of the program. Once you define those it is time to implement and test those scenarios.
Some questions to ask:
What data is being written to the file?
How critical is it that the data get saved?
If an error is reported, who will see the error?
If an error is reported, how do you expect a user to react? And what are their options?
I would go with Eilon's answer for the most part but would add the following caveat - I would not try to chown/chmod a file, unless you really need to i.e. if the purpose of your program is managing file permissions or acting as an installer of some sort. This is because a) your attempted chmod/chown may not work and b) your application should respect the user privileges with which it is run - if these are not sufficient you should inform the user via whatever mechanism you do this.
Your program should output an error on STDERR and return with an exit code different than zero.
