I'm stuck with a SSIS package that I created for importing xlsx files to a database. Since some files have data with more tan 255 characters, I setted that column to DT_NTEXT. If I just leave a xlsx file that I know that has this long data, the package works fine with no erros. But, if I leave all the files that need to be imported in the import folder, I get next erros:
[VENTA_IMS_EXCEL [1]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR.
An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21.
[VENTA_IMS_EXCEL [1]] Error: Failed to retrieve long data for column "F17".
[VENTA_IMS_EXCEL [1]] Error: There was an error with output column
"SubFamilia" (16693) on output "Excel Source Output" (9).
The column status returned was: "DBSTATUS_UNAVAILABLE".
[VENTA_IMS_EXCEL [1]] Error: SSIS Error Code
DTS_E_INDUCEDTRANSFORMFAILUREONERROR. The "output column "SubFamilia"
(16693)" failed because error code 0xC0209071 occurred, and the error row disposition on
"output column "SubFamilia" (16693)" 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.
[SSIS.Pipeline] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PRIMEOUTPUTFAILED.
The PrimeOutput method on component "VENTA_IMS_EXCEL" (1) returned error code 0xC0209029.
The component returned a failure code when the pipeline engine called PrimeOutput().
The meaning of the failure code is defined by the component, but the error is fatal
and the pipeline stopped executing. There may be error messages posted before this
with more information about the failure.
My guessing is that the problem is that it evaluates each file for the kind of data to work with, and in the cases that there is data with less tan 255 characters, it fails.
Can anyone help me with this? How can I solve this? So it can loop and import all files with no problems.
This is a common issue with excel files. The excel driver infers the datatype for each column based on the first 8 rows. Review what datatype is your datasource assigning to your column and then confirm that all values conform to this datatype.

Been several years since I had to write an SSIS package and struggling with converting a datetimezone string from Excel to Data Conversion transformation converting to DB_TIMEZONEOFFSET to a SQL Server Destination.
The following is the Timestamp in all 7 rows of Excel source:
The date column from the Excel source is a Unicode String [DT_WSTR] as seen below:
The SQL Server destination field is setup as DATETIMEOFFSET(7) as seen below:
I am receiving the following errors on the Data Conversion transformation when run the data flow:
[Data Conversion 2] Error: Data conversion failed while converting
column "Column1.createdAt" (82) to column "Copy of Column1.createdAt"
(38). The conversion returned status value 2 and status text "The
value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
[Data Conversion 2] Error: SSIS Error Code
DTS_E_INDUCEDTRANSFORMFAILUREONERROR. The "Data
Conversion.Outputs[Data Conversion Output].Columns[Copy of
Column1.createdAt]" failed because error code 0xC020907F occurred, and
the error row disposition on "Data Conversion.Outputs[Data Conversion
Output].Columns[Copy of Column1.createdAt]" 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.
[SSIS.Pipeline] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PROCESSINPUTFAILED. The
ProcessInput method on component "Data Conversion" (2) failed with
error code 0xC0209029 while processing input "Data Conversion 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.
It is also important to note that I did also try to use a Derived Column transformation before the Data Conversion transformation as well to cast as DATETIMEOFFSET(7) to match that of SQL Server destination and received errors there as well similar to above.
Been fighting this for a while now and any extra eyes will help.
Thanks.
ssis cannot do the conversion if there are T and Z letters in the field. Use the REPLACE command to replace the letter T with space and the letter Z without characters. Like This : (DT_DBTIMESTAMPOFFSET,7)REPLACE(REPLACE(createdAt,"T"," "),"Z","")
I am trying to import data from a flat file into an SQL database. The data has been all stored as text and is giving an error when it gets to the first row of the D_FST_ADM field. This data is as follows "00000000". It does not have quotes around it in the file.
The errors I am getting are this:
[Flat File Source [240]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "D_FST_ADM" returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".

I have tried changing the field in the database from a date field to an integer and then to character, with no luck.
I tried to create a derived field for it but with no success either.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
My DFT fetches data from an SP. It is followed by a conditional split to split dataset into 5 parts based on a column value. The sub-datasets are then written into an excel file. All 5 outputs write into the same excel file, But different tabs. I have explicitly mentioned the Column range and starting row for the data to be written. Data load into the Excel file fails with the following error.
[EXC DST EAC TREND HPS [1379]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.

The most frustrating part is that the Excel destinations fail at random. Lets name them as A,B,C,D and E. During 1st run A will fail and the rest will write data successfully. During the 2nd run, A will succeed but C and E will fail and so on.
Every time the Excel Dest fails, data is still written in that particular tab. But I can see some blank rows in the dataset. I added a data viewer before each Excel Dest and the data looks correct. There are no blank rows either. number of rows per data set are fixed (18).
I am using a template every time which has only Column headers.
4 columns have datatype of nvarchar with max data length of around 50. 12 columns are Numeric(38,2).
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Gaz
Reorganize the package so that the writes will occur sequentially. The error you are seeing is the result of concurrency issues. You can't write to the same file in 5 different places at once. You have to do let each write finish before the next one starts.
Here it is below a full dump of the SSIS complains. Please note that I imported the same data in the destination table by using a different tool already and everything is looking perfectly, I suppose that means the schema of the destination table is correct. What do I have to do here to actually use SSIS (the entire process is automated, I did it manually now but that is not acceptable in long term...)

Your data contains unicode characters i guess and the destination is varchar(23). Try to change it to nvarchar(23) and then import ?
Use utf 8 and you will be fine. That is in the first screen after the welcome in the import export tool. That displays properly the accents.

Please can any one help me....
The column called solution has data consisting of text & special characters, I have specified that column as NVARCHAR(MAX).....
1st thing Id check is- Open up your flat file connection manager, select the column that's being imported and see what the data type is set to -
Check the Output Column width and increase if its small
