Incorrect External column length in SSIS OLE DB source - sql-server

I am transferring data from database_1 to database_2, I created a table i the destination DB like the one in the source DB, but when I connect the OLE DB source to the table and open the Advanced editor I found that the External column length for a specific column is different, the length in the sql server is varchar (50) but in the SSIS in Advanced editor is DT_SRT (30). I tried to edit it but when I check again it turned into 30 again.
When I execute the package an error rise saying that truncatination occurred on the column and the execution stops.
[Derived Column [2]] Error: The "Derived Column" failed because truncation occurred, and the
truncation row disposition on "Derived Column.Outputs[Derived Column
Output].Columns[DBusinessTypeNameAR]" specifies failure on truncation. A truncation error
occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
[SSIS.Pipeline] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PROCESSINPUTFAILED. The ProcessInput method on
component "Derived Column" (2) failed with error code 0xC020902A while processing input
"Derived Column Input" (3). The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput
method. The error is specific to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data
Flow task to stop running. There may be error messages posted before this with more
information about the failure.

DB Source returned error code 0xC02020C4. The component returned a failure code when the

component, but the error is fatal and the pipeline stopped executing. There may be error

the Derived Column only contains code page correction as the screenshot below.

There are two different things going on here.
1. String truncation error from a Derived Column
[Derived Column [2]] Error: The "Derived Column" failed because truncation occurred, and the
truncation row disposition on "Derived Column.Outputs[Derived Column
Output].Columns[DBusinessTypeNameAR]" specifies failure on truncation. A truncation error
occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
Note that the truncation message is coming from your Derived Column not the destination column. The derived column's length is 10, not 30 (or 50). Increasing the size of your DBusinessTypeNameAR derived column to 30 (DT_STR,30,1252) or 50 (DT_STR,50,1252) should remove the error.
2. Out-of-sync destination column metadata
If your design-time database's column meta-data does not match the run-time database 's column meta-data (you said in the comments your target database connection string was set by an expression) this may explain the out-of-sync destination database column metadata.
If you've ensured that the two db 'scenarios' (design-time db and run-time db) have the same field meta-data, the simplest way to re-sync out-of-sync destination table column meta-data for OLEDB Database destination component is to:
Inside the OLE DB Destination Editor, click the table drop-down list to expand the list of target tables.
Select a different table in the drop-down list.
Move to a different "tab" in the editor.
Back on the Connection Manager tab, select the original table from the table drop-down, and make sure that all mappings are in place (Mappings tab)
Click ok and Save changes.

The data which you are importing might be having text bigger than columns size of table.
Maximize the size of the table column and then try.
Check the length for the column Threat on source and destination. Please adjust that according to the length on excel, bascally increase it.
Alternatively, In the Excel source editor and click on error output tab.
Select the column Threat and in Truncation column set the value as Ignore failure.
This should help.
Check out the ideas in this Stackoverflow link enter link description here, then. It might be trying to import some extra blank rows, which you can either allow (by changing the ALLOW NULLS option), or pipe the failed rows into a different dataset in SSIS, to handle the failing rows separately
Are you creating a DFT manually? If so:
1) Create New Excel Connection Manager - Link your excel file
2) Create New OLE DB Connection Manager - Choose your Database and Table.
3) Excel Source
4) Data Conversion - Convert the EXCEL column to DT_STR which makes it Varchar instead of NVARCHAR.
5) OLE DB Destination which is your SQL server table.
Alternatively you could set the column to NVARCHAR and it would match the EXCEL But if it's a VARCHAR column the data needs to be converted to DT_STR in the data conversion. Let me know if you need more help.

For the past week I've been working on creating a package in SSIS that will extract, transform, and then load data from an Access database into a SQL Server database. Initially I created two separate packages to handle migrating bits of data from the same table in Access, transforming it, and then loading it into two different tables in SQL Server. Those worked on their own separately, but now I am trying to fold them into one package.
From what I've investigated, this is more than feasible (having a package with one data flow with two sources and destinations) but for some reason I can't get it to work. Looking into the error codes I got, people suggested using data conversion, but I previously had errors thrown at me regarding data types that I have solved using data conversion.
The errors that SSIS throws at me when I run the package are as follows:
Error: 0xC0202009 at Data Flow Task, InfoTable [52]: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.

The identified component returned an error from the ProcessInput method. The error is specific to the component, but the error is fatal and will cause the Data Flow task to stop running. There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure.
Thank you in advance for any help that can be given!
I was able to figure it out; it was due to the data I was trying to load that contained some null values. Normally this would be fine, but my SQL Server database (specifically the table that the data is being loaded into) is setup to not allow Nulls. I believe this is what was causing the issue even with the "allow nulls" on the OLE DB Destination > table or view - fast load checked.
The solution seems to be either fixing the SQL Server table to accept Nulls or not trying to load nulls into the table. I did the latter and everything worked ok (didn't even need a data conversion).
I can't say for sure without seeing everything in detail, but based on the error and your description of the problem, I suspect you have a foreign key relationship and some of that data is being loaded before the primary key gets loaded. If so, look at adding a precedence constraint to load the first table followed by the second using two separate data flows in the same package.

How to import local flat tab file into new table within database using SQL Server 2012?

How do I import a local flat tab file into a database using SQL Server 2012 without truncation errors?
What I have tried: To import the local flat tab file into my database. I'm using Microsoft Sql Server Management System (MS SMS). I receive errors that the FULL_DESCRIPTION column is truncated. I changed the data type for that column to max and tried VARCHAR(max) & NVARCAR(max) & NTEXT(max) but I receive the same errors. I right click on the database > Tasks > Import Data.
Then the SQL server Import and Export Wizard appears.[Choose From Data Source.] > [Choose Data Destination to copy to.] > [Table Preview] > [Review Data Mapping] > Finish. It starts executing and I receive the following error screen.
Error 0xc02020a1: Data Flow Task 1: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "FULL_DESCRIPTION" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page."

The import process requires a value for every row in the 'PLUCode' column, whereas I believe that your excel spreadsheet sometimes has no value in these cells.
Right clicking on the PLUCode and setting it to allow nulls will allow you to upload the table. The query below will give you the errored entries for review.
SELECT *
FROM Tablename
WHERE PLUCode IS NULL
If you're dealing with duplicates I would recommend a self join to only give you the unique rows. (You'll need a few 'if' statements to check for rows with null values so you don't delete a whole record and leave you with the broken one.) I would be exceptionally careful with using any predefined remove duplicates function (like in excel) unless you've scrutinized the table to ensure it wont drop the completed rows.
EDIT: To respond the need to save as a flat file you'll want to save as a comma delimited csv file. Its in the usual file formats list unless you're using excel 2010, the itll be under the "Save and Send" option.

SSIS - Intermittent error "Conversion failed because the data value overflowed the specified type."

I have an SSIS package which intermittently fails with a handful of errors, the two most informative of which are:
DFT_PlaySummary
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 10.0" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Invalid date format".
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 10.0" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Invalid date format".**
DFT_PlaySummary
There was an error with input column "dtCreated" (2129) on input "OLE DB Destination Input" (2121). The column status returned was: "Conversion failed because the data value overflowed the specified type.".**
Both source and destination DB's are SQL Server 2008 R2. The column dtCreated in both source and destination is DATETIME (NOT NULL).
Now, I understand the basis of what the error message is saying, but I can't understand how the data or the conversion could be invalid in the package without having already been deemed invalid at the source.
Strangely, on some days the package will fail with this error, restart itself (as per the package settings) and then succeed without any manual intervention.
Any pointers as to what I should be looking for within the package steps that could be causing this? The data flow task itself consists of a couple of OLE DB sources, each with a derived column, followed by a merge of these data sets and then a conditional split to various OLE DB destinations depending on the dtCompleted value.
Two options you can try,
Use Data Conversion in Data flow task to convert necessary values.
Set specific data types in derived column itself, if your column is available there.
Data conversion is handy when this type of error occurs commonly.
SSIS date time format should be used correctly. The below article explanins difference clearly. Use the correct format, which is required for you.
