I am trouble shooting an error in a package.
Update MYTABLE for MYCOLUMN (REF to task name):Error: Executing the query "..." failed with the following error: "Invalid column name 'MYCOLUMN'.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
I have verified the table and column exists, the length of the field is way excessive than what it needs that is 14 where it is declared as varchar(250).
I have verified the script works on the server in SSMS outside of the context of the package.
I have verified the connection and database in the package is as I expect.
Is there away to verify on the server. I did try to look at the Connection Managers tab on the package configuration itself i.e. in the Integration Services Catalogs->SSISDB->solutionfolder->..->package.dtsx->Configure context menu but it is empty.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot?
Just to add more context the package contains 27 other tasks, 9 tasks in a row linked to this task but all set to on completion, all seem to be doing stuff independent of the other. 1 task is a loop doing stuff and the rest are single independent tasks. So I don't know at this stage if it is a cascading connection issue perhaps however; I am just reading what the log says.
I kicked off the package at 9:54am, the timestamp on the error log says 11:45am so nearly 2 hours into running is this log reported.
I would suggest the below things to troubleshoot the issue.
I would suggest you to just have this task and disable all other
tasks to troubleshoot the issue. So that you can focus on this issue
specifically. That will tell you whether connection is working fine
without issues.
I would suggest you to edit the task and see whether parameters are
set properly. Different providers have different way of setting
parameters. Again check whether parameters are proper. Execute SQL
Task
one more thing, may be you are pointing the package to different
connection than the one you used for SSMS. So, it is working in SSMS
and in the connection being used in the package is not having schema
changes yet done.
I finally figure it out before I read the previous offered suggestion so will give some credit if I can! FYI: We have a lot of dev servers. I clicked on the overview hyperlink in the All Execution logs and it said another server. Also I found the connection on the job calling the package not the package itself so I have learnt something today. Anyhow the job said one server but the overview said another so I again I was back to square one scratching my head.
Then I decided to open the connection manager on the job and select the field and make no change rather then cancelling I clicked ok not thinking about it and noticed the field changed to bold face. So I am assuming if you make a manual change on the server in SSMS to anything it shows up in bold which is kind of useful. So I can only assume this is a MS SSMS or SSIS or VS deployment bug. That it does not overwrite, the previous connection although the SSMS interface says otherwise. Perhaps somebody can share some light. Having not checked the server before I made a change and deployed it I have no idea if the previous settings were changed manually by someone or the connection in the package was changed and deployed. Anyhow checking the job history shows it had been failing for awhile so it wasn't me so whoever and whenever a change was done by a previous developer didn't figure it our either or didn't bother or did not know how, or didn't observe it. Anyhow it is pointing to the correct server now!!!

I am using SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 and received this error without any known cause: The report execution eqaiekfzmk2snc55y0zrow55 has expired or cannot be found. (rsExecutionNotFound).
While I have found other posts describing problem through Google searches, the resolutions did not help me:
Restarting SQL Server, SQL Server Agent, and SQL Server Reporting services
Increasing the Execution Timeout through SQL Server Management Studio when connected to the Reporting server
Adding rs:ClearSession to the URL querystring (and trying IE, Chrome, and Firefox)
Redeploying after each troubleshooting step and retesting
I looked in the Reporting Services log file folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS11.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\LogFiles but I see the datestamp is over two months old and I could see nothing related to the symptom.
I looked looked in ExecutionLog3 and did not see anything related to the symptom. use ReportServer; select * from ExecutionLog3;
To find out what did work, I verified that:
The query and results are sound, as seen in Management Studio
I can preview the report in Data Tools on the server
I can view the report when remoting into the server
I only see the error when viewing the page from outside the server. This is a relatively lightweight query and result set, so I cannot believe that this problem has anything to do with execution timeouts.
I changed the name of the file and redeployed. I am able to see that report now, but this isn't a true resolution because I still don't know what is truly causing the problem and how to fix it. If the symptom appears again, I can't keep changing the filename and redeploy.
Is there a way to get a better idea of what is happening? A specific log file or a property I need to change?
Update:
I thought I had this problem worked out, but apparently not. I found nothing useful in the error logs: only a restatement of the same error message visible in the browser. When I redeploy (using SQL Server Data Tools), the error goes away... for a few hours or until the next day, when I need to redeploy to make the error go away.
I know this is an old question but I had this problem recently and it turned out to be a bad session cookie. The cookies session-id matched the guid in the error message and once I deleted the cookie all worked fine after that. The report at one point had been configured to cache a temporary copy
but that had since been turned off (however, the problem existed before that had been turned off so it may not be relevant).
Hopefully this answer will help someone else save the hour I spent figuring it out in my environment :)
This might help someone.
In my case, The report url had trailing spaces (a silly mistake) which caused this.
I've added &rs:Command=ClearSession to the end of my url and works fine with me.
As stated in a different answer you can clear the session which usually resolves this issue.
If you have a question mark in your URL already then add the following to the end.
&rs:Command=ClearSession
If you do not have one then you need to add the following to the end.
?rs:Command=ClearSession
I just had this problem, it was for an existing report that had been working correctly. However, the Report Builder had been open for some time in another window while I was working on something else, and I hadn't saved my work (I was applying a filter, and didn't want to save my changes with my test filter). It occurred to me that since the report HAD been working, but it had been sitting idle, it might have gone stale. I opened the Dataset Properties, clicked Query Designer, then "Run Query". The Query Designer then got a fresh request from the data source. I closed the Dataset Properties window and clicked "Run", and my report was again displayed.
For me, I had no trailing space.
Some people had luck with clearing Session.Keys of "Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportHierarchy"
I solved it by Session.Clear in the global.asax
For us, the error appeared trying to run a report on an SSRS 2016 server using Internet Explorer 11. The user had created a bookmark that linked directly to the report. What may have happened: IE preserves cookies and temporary internet files for favorites to "help them load faster". The user may have initially ran the report, then created the bookmark to the report which contained session information.
To fix: Delete the bookmark, then cleared browser history in IE (CTL+SHIFT+DEL) being sure to uncheck "Preserve Favorites website data".
I have a package with one data flow task. In the data flow task it copies data from one database to another archive database.
I linked two precedence constraints. If it's successful it should go on and start a certain job in SQL Server (delete records from the original database). If the task fails, it should return a script task saying that it failed.
When I run this, the data flow task is successful (every record gets copied). The data flow task gets a green tick. The "execute SQL Server Agent Job Task" also gets a green tick. Yet after completing the package it says
"Package execution completed with error. Click here to switch to design mode, or select Stop Debugging from the Debug menu."
I included a screenshot of it:
The output basically only says:
SSIS package "c:\Users\Kim\Documents\Visual Studio 2012\Projects\POC\POC\Archive.dtsx" finished: Failure.
So:
Where can I find the error? There is no indication at all what went wrong. Both show green ticks and the migration of data did went well indeed. The SQL Server job didn't do its job. The records are still there. So I have a feeling that the error has to do with the job. I have to mention it is the Change Data Capture cleanup job which was automatically made when I turned on CDC on this table. I did this because I only want this job to happen when the data flow task is successful (instead of running the schedule by default).
If it failed, why didn't it follow the precedence constraint for failure (showing the script)?
SQL Server agent is turned on by the way.
Can someone please help me? I googled "Package execution completed with error" and I literally get only 68 results which are not helping.
Kim
I recreated the entire package and it completed with success. I'm still wondering what the difference is with my original package, but I'm guessing it might have something to do with non-corresponding meta-data. When making the original package I had copied a few tasks and then made new tasks and deleted the copied ones (because it was easier to look between them instead of switching between SSIS projects). I deleted all the old copied tasks, but possibly something went wrong there and that something is still linked to old metadata. All the tasks are performing though.
Mike en Ennor thanks for looking into the problem. If anyone has any clue what it could be, please reply anyway, because my solution to recreate the package again was not a satisfying solution.
Kim
Did you look at the Event Handlers? Also, any other failed configurations or Loggings in the background? These three could be possible culprits. Any other Tasks that are disabled and are using an old connection string that no longer resides on the package?
I got the same issue.
Try going through each event handler tab, data flow tab for Evey executable while in the execution / run mode. You would be able to see red Cross marks where the error is.
Run the workflow > click the "Progress" button to see red X's.
My problem with database starts with situation where I cant really modify anything in database. My project specialist has limited time to help me. Here is the thing:
My user in Oracle database has older schema than actual production one. My section is working on stable and older version. After every release we are keep getting this issue, that something is set (maybe on Jenkins, maybe not) automatically to update our database to version, which we dont want. We tried to resolve it by changing password to user, but it produce new issue. Automat is trying to log in and when it gets wrong pass error, it is trying again. Oracle 11g has this limit 10 failed login attempts, after which it is locking the whole user account, which we use to connect do db by our application server.
We can not investigate this by turning on auditing failed logins, because it takes place on database space and our db-guy has not allowed us to do it, because if we exceed the space limit (which is about 11GB) the whole database will be dead (our project is not as important to do it). Another thing is that person who probably set the scripts which are our problem doesnt work anymore here.
Our workaround was to manually unlock account to get the connection by application server, and then wait a few secs to get locked again (but the connection of app server was stable). It is stupid, you must admit and the problem is when the connection drops by any reason - app server will not get it automatically, we have to do it manually which is not a solution. I have reconsidered it all again, my db-guy has no time to help me, I have no tools and access rights to investigate where this script or whatever other problem causing thing is beeing executed, so I started to thinking: what if we set limit of failed login attempts to unlimited? Will this decrease the performance of database? Will this generate any special new problems? Maybe the solution would be change the PASSWORD_LOCK_TIME to small value? I am asking you to some arguments that I could provide to my db-guy to convince him to use this new workarounds so I can start working again with code and not this database problems.
SSIS Scenario
I have a SQL variable of type object. It contains all the connection to different servers/databases. I want to connect to those databases one by one and run a query.
Expected Exception Handling
If the SSIS Connection manager(Dynamic connection manger) is unable to find the connection to the server (probably the server is down) I want to Skip that connection (Database/server) and log that into the table and move onto the next Connection (Database/Server). The SSIS package should not crash.
My Implementation
I have Successfully Configured the SSIS package to Use Connection Manager (Dynamic Connection Manager) and Foreach loop to loop through the SSIS variable of type object. but I am not able to skip the Connection if the server/database is not found. it generates error that the server/databsse not found / problem with the connection and the SSIS package fails.
my experience in SSIS is one week old
Any help will be appreciated.
How about setting --> Force execution Result property of the task to success
I was looking for the same fix too. Seems the normal OnError Eventhandling does not work for issues that arise when connecting to a source DB.
There is another workaround I wanted to mention. You can handle the error in the Data Flow Task (OnError Eventhandler, set the System-Variable "Propagate" in that Eventhandler to false). I think this is still required, but not sure. I use it also to log the exception.
Afterwards you can set MaximumErrorCount in ForEachLoop to "0" (which means unlimited). I'm not exactly sure why it works, but trying to find a way to handle the scenario you described, I found this.
==
Just as an interesting observation: For debugging purposes I added an OnError Eventhandler to the ForEachLoop and set a breakpoint there in a dummy script. It was never reached. Nonetheless the ForEachLoop failed all the time until I set MaximumErrorCount to 0.
I dont think its possible to continue the package execution once it encounters an error. You need to control this behavior through a SQL Server table (or any other table for that matter).
Once the package fails, you can set a flag in the table saying that the package failed. The next time the package runs, you can start from this point on and continue the execution. But automatically skipping the down server is kinda pulling a rabbit out of a hat.
Another way you can do this is to ping each server before hand in a separate package and store the ping results in a table. Only pick those records (servers) whose ping results were positive. Otherwise just skip the server.
Just recently started having issues with an SQL Server Agent Job that contains an SSIS package to extract production data and summarize it into a separate reporting database.
I think that some of the Alerts/Notifications settings I tried playing with caused the problem as the job had been running to completion unattended for the previous two weeks.
So... Where's a good place to start reading up on SQL Agent Alerts and Notifications? I want to enable some sort of alert/notification so that I'm always informed:
That the job completes successfully (as a check to ensure that it's always executed), or
That the job ran into some sort of error, which should include enough info (such as error number) that I can diagnose the cause of the error
As always, any help will be greatly appreciated!
Books Online is probably a good place to start (or at least I like it and generally find it useful).
SQLMenace and bofe made some good points. Here's my additional two cents:
I'd recommend configuring Database Mail rather than SQL Mail (i.e. SMTP vs. MAPI, which I think is deprecated anyway). Once you get the mail profile configured, you'll have to also configure the SQL agent to use that mail profile (which is just a page of settings for the agent properties), or else your SSIS job notifications won't actually get sent, even though you can successfully send a test email from Management Studio.
I don't use alerts as often as job notifications, so the only tricky thing I can recall about them is that if you're raising an error and you want the alert to email you when that happens, you have to make sure that the raised error gets written to the log. I think that just boils down to "RAISERROR ... WITH LOG"; here's the BOL link for the syntax details.
In each step of the job click on advanced then from there you can log to a file or to a table, this will have all errorcodes and other things why the job failed
You should be able to see this also from the job history.
Right click on the job-->view history, click on the + sign to expand, the click on each step and it will be in the lower panel
To set up notifications you need to set up an operator and the in the job on the notification tab you pick it from the email dropdown
You'll want to have "When the job completes" marked in your notifications page on the job's properties.
Just go to that dropdown and switch it to job completion instead of failure (which is on the screenshot).
You'll also want to make sure that your server has e-mail configured. I think it's under SQL Surface Area Configuration for Features.
