Package Configuration wizard:-SQL Configurations Configuration filter not working

Hi --I was wondering if this is a bug when I add new data in my table SSIS Confiurations and give wizard a new Configuration filter the package configuration wizard can not see the new values --the old values from the previous configuration are still showingis there any known workaround or forced refresh I can do

thanks in advance Dave

Background:

SQL Package Configurations are most important because they provide the possibility of a central configuration store for your entire enterprise!!!!!!!! and is in my mind the only way to go

http://sqljunkies.com/WebLog/knight_reign/archive/2005/01/24/6843.aspx

Wizard results:

Name:
ETL

Type:
SQL Server

Connection name:
ETLConfiguration

Any existing configuration information for selected configuration filter will be overwritten with new configuration settings.

Configuration table name:
[dbo].[SSIS Configurations]

Configuration filter:
PT_CUST_ABR

Target Property:
\Package.Variables[User::gsPreLoad].Properties[Value]
\Package.Variables[User::gsPostLoad].Properties[Value]
\Package.Variables[User::gsLoad].Properties[Value]
\Package.Variables[User::gsFlatFilename].Properties[Value]
\Package.Variables[User::gsFileName].Properties[Value]
\Package.Variables[User::gsCDOMailTo].Properties[Value]
\Package.Variables[User::gsCDOMailSubject].Properties[Value]
\Package.Variables[User::giRecordCount].Properties[Value]
\Package.Variables[User::giFileSize].Properties[Value]
\Package.Variables[User::giBatchID].Properties[Value]
\Package.Variables[User::gdFileDateCreated].Properties[Value]
\Package.Connections[MyDatabase].Properties[ServerName]
\Package.Connections[MyDatabase].Properties[InitialCatalog]

USE [ETLConfiguration]
GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[SSIS Configurations] Script Date: 05/23/2006 13:34:35 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SSIS Configurations](
[ConfigurationFilter] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[ConfiguredValue] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[PackagePath] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL,
[ConfiguredValueType] [nvarchar](20) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]

I have just tried this scenario and cannot reproduce it. I added several SQL configurations and all worked fine.

I wonder if you could try to repro, while running SQL Profiler - that way you may discover if there are any issues in updating your config table.

Thanks Donald --first off I have discovered a workaround. I think its way too risky and error prone to let the wizard write the actual values into the configuration table --you can imagine the chaos in large datawarehouse that has lots of new of records to enter into in the table!!!! Lets think it through--it I have say 5 new staging tables to add to the warehouse thats 65 manual entrys I would have to make with the wizard--no way is this workable

instead I prefer to sql script my new entrys and load in on hit

The workaround is to run the SQL insert script --then go to the wizard and change the configuration filter and go through to the endat this stage if you look at the variables they wont have changed since your last entry to the configuration table

Step1: Save the package

Step2: Exit out of visual studio completely and reopen again and go back into package

Hey presto the new values in the variables have changed

Can confirm this workaround only for SQL Server 2005

I have not tested for SQL Sever 2005 SP1

cheers Dave

Found the issue myself. One of the variables I had unintentionally set for the package configuration was of type Object. Rightfully so, you are unable to save a variable of type object to be saved in an xml configuration file.

Package "ShellPackage" failed for Copy Database

Hello,

I'm trying to migrate a SQL 2000 database to SQL 2005. I'm using the Copy Database Wizard and can copy the database using the detach and attach method, but I would rather use the SQL Management Object method. I get the following error when trying to use this method:

Package "ShellPackage" failed.

This error occurs directly after the following step:

Event Name: OnInformation
Message: Transferring data to database RestoreTest from RestoreTest
Operator: <WAN\first.lastname>
Source Name: BP-BLM-TESTSQL2_BLM-JCAMPVSSQL2_Transfer Objects Task

Start Time: 12/20/2005 3:05:58 PM
End Time: 12/20/2005 3:05:58 PM
Data Code: 0

The database is created successfully but the data is not transfered. Also, the logins are created on the new server successfully. Has anyone seen this error or have any ideas on how to solve this problem? I would greatly appreciate any help!

Thanks,

Joseph

This is occurring for us as well.

I am assuming it is some sort of perms problem... anyone else?

|||Um, Me too. It's amazing how long I've been working on this
I'm getting the shellPackage failed in the event log and this in the text log
"Could not find server 'serv4' in sysservers. Execute sp_addlinkedserver to add the server to sysservers.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
