I have an excel file. I wanted to pull the data from excel file to SQL Server table. And the data is successfully transferred. In the excel file, I removed a text from one column named Risk from one row.The text was lengthy one. Now the package execution fails at the source ie from the excel file. The errors are shown as
[Audit [1]] Error: There was an error with output column "Risk" (100)
on output "Excel Source Output" (9). The column status returned was:
"DBSTATUS_UNAVAILABLE".
and
[Audit [1]] Error: SSIS Error Code
DTS_E_INDUCEDTRANSFORMFAILUREONERROR. The "output column "Risk"
(100)" failed because error code 0xC0209071 occurred, and the error
row disposition on "output column "Risk" (100)" specifies failure on
error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified
component. There may be error messages posted before this with more
information about the failure.
the error occurs when I remove this particular text from this row and when I clear the whole data except the column names and reenter a new data. And even if I replace the excel file with the same name and same column names but with different data.
Make sure that the excel is closed before you run the SSIS package. Plus try refreshing the meta data by opening the SSIS package, going to the columns section in the source and destination data flow items. There seems to be no other problems or you have described/observed it in the wrong way.
I just ran into this...don't recall seeing it before in 10+ yrs of using SSIS. Google-ing found a solution. Right-click on the Excel connection>>Advanced Editor>>Input and Output Properties. Open the "Output Columns" in the Excel Source Output treeview, and find the pesky column. Change the ErrorRowDisposition to RD_IgnoreFailure.
This got me part way - I had to go in and change the DataType property and the length afterwards to get it to work. Then I put the ErrorRowDisposition back to fail and ran it only with the changed DataType and length, and it ran.
Play with these options and see if you can get it to work; I'm assuming that the data type change fixed it.

I have a flat file where rows have ids in form of guid. What I need is to redirect error output to table which will have error row id, error column and error code. The problem is that I can map only "Flat File Source Error Output Column" which is some sort of other columns concatenation. Is there a way I can get the ID column value of the error row? The best solution I could find is to add counter which will give the row number, but that's not exactly what I need, as ids are strings in my case.
Nope. You get 3* columns from the Flat File Source Component's: Flat File Source Error Output Column, ErrorCode, ErrorColumn.
A Source component defines the columns that all row buffers "downstream" of that point will contain. It is responsible for adding rows and then filling the columns in that new row buffer.
The Flat File Source component has a contract that describes how it should consume the source data - this many columns, this delimiter (or this many characters) etc.
What happens though when something overflows a length, or the data type is incompatible or not all of the delimiters are present? The design decision is to either put incomplete rows into the pipeline (but then how do you determine which columns get populated - fill left to right? what about type mismatch?) or treat it as an error. Normally, this blows up the data flow but if you add an Error output path, then you can see what row failed.
And the row is the atomic unit the flat file is using as input.
Read line -> Parse -> Write to Output [or Error] buffer {loop}
You could then use a Script Task to try and parse out the GUID from "Flat File Source Error Output Column" but then you have to hope that the value is in the row. It could be that a column has an embedded delimiter that wasn't escaped, someone transferred the file using the wrong encoding/line endings, etc.
*The Flat File Source Component does expose a property in the advanced editor, Component Properties tab for FileNameColumnName and that too will show up in the Error output path but that is the only source component I am aware of with this behaviour.
I am creating a data flow with excel source and flat file destination.
When I create the flat file connection manager with the "Delimited" format I have no problems creating the txt file.
If I try instead to use the "Fixed width" (like it happens with "Results to Text" in SSMS) I keep getting erros like this one:
when I am in the "Columns" tab.
Also, when I try to run the package it tells me that "It's impossible to write the name of the column "this_column". It could be that the name of the column is bigger than the available column dimensions."
How can I make each column as long as the longest value?
I am exporting a table from sql server to Excel using the SSIS Import/Export wizard. In Proceed step, I get a warning icon in each record regarding conversion of types. If I ignore then the export fails after clicking Finish in the last screen.
I search in Stack Overflow regarding this but unable to get relevant answer...
SQL table fields and their type are below:
CREATE SomeTable
(
EmpId numeric(9)
, Name varchar(50)
, Address varchar(50)
, ContactNo varchar(50)
);
Error that comes is written below

I've seen this error before and it could be a result of several things.
1) Make certain that in the Data Conversion Transformation Editor that the fields Name, Address and ContactNo have a Data Type set to "Unicode string [DT_WSTR] with a length of 50 in order to convert from SQL Server to Excel.
2) if you are working on server, make certain that Run64BitRuntime is set to True (otherwise for set it to False). This you can check by right-clicking on the package name (first item under Solution Explorer on the right side of the window), selecting properties and then Debugging under Configuration Properites.
3) Under the Data Flow tab, double-click the source OLE DB item, select Connection Manager and verify that the values are being pulled by selecting Preview at the bottom. It may be possible that you are not pulling the data correctly and that is throwing off the conversion step.
4) Lastly, compare the settings between the Data Conversion Input vs. Data Conversion Output. This is done by selecting the Data Conversion task and selecting the hyperlink for "Show Advanced Editor" under Properties. When the window opens, select the tab "Input and Output Properties." In the left pane, expand the Input columns and Output column folders to view the three fields. By selecting on a field you can view the properites. Make certain that the lengths are correct and that the Data Type Properties are defined correctly. As mentioned before, the output for each should be "Unicoce string [DT_WSTR]" with a length of 50.
Hope this helps.
I am importing a text file into SQL server table which has got number of constraints. I have created one package and associated tasks.
At the end of a SSIS package execution, I want to know the erroenous row numbers which were not succefully exported to DB. Is any direct API or variable available in dts namespace to give this information?
Kindly share with me any knowledge to get this information.
Thanks,
Rahul
The error (red line) output of your import step inside the data flow lets you redirect to an error table. This should list the information you are after.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms140083.aspx
Error Outputs ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms140080.aspx )
Sources, destinations, and transformations can include error outputs. You can specify how the data flow component responds to errors in each input or column by using the Configure Error Output dialog box. If an error or data truncation occurs at run time and the data flow component is configured to redirect rows, the data rows with the error are sent to the error output. By default, an error output contains the output columns and two error columns: ErrorCode and ErrorColumn. The output columns contain the data from the row that failed, ErrorCode provides the error code, and ErrorColumn identifies the failing column.
For more information, see Handling Errors in the Data Flow.
Redirect the error rows on the destination component, pipe them through a count operation and then log that to a log table or whatever.
I have an SSIS Package that needs to load data through an oledb component into a table whose name is not known until runtime. In the oledb destination editor I have selected "Data access mode" as "Table name or view name variable". I have entered my "Variable name" that holds the name of the table. When I hit the preview button I am presented with a preview of the correct table. However, when I attempt to run / debug the package I get the following message at the validation stage - before the package even attempts to run:
Information: 0x4004300A at Check Recs and Insert, DTS.Pipeline: Validation phase is beginning.
Error: 0xC0202042 at Check Recs and Insert, Insert Into TransactionX table [2269]: A destination table name has not been provided.
Error: 0xC004706B at Check Recs and Insert, DTS.Pipeline: "component "Insert Into TransactionX table" (2269)" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_ISBROKEN".
Error: 0xC004700C at Check Recs and Insert, DTS.Pipeline: One or more component failed validation.
Error: 0xC0024107 at Check Recs and Insert: There were errors during task validation.
SSIS package "PointsPartnerImport.dtsx" finished: Failure.
It says A destination table name has not been provided. but it has! Has anyone had a similar problem?
What programmatic format are the data in? I had a similar problem today trying to import data from an Excel spreadsheet. It turned out that the spreadsheet's name had a " " (physical white space) in it. SSIS wasn't too happy about that. But for whatever reason, the problem resolved itself after I replaced that white space with an _ (underscore).
As to why, my guess is certain characters should generally be avoided in titles such as white spaces or hyphens. There may be characters in addition to the white space that give a similar error (hyphens?).
Are u setting the variable to a default value? Check this article out: msdn thread
Make sure the Variable name has a default value and it matches the first sheet name in your Excel workbook. SSIS needs to load the first worksheet during design time, you cannot skip this validation.
Spaces or special characters in the Sheet name will not affect the functionality.
