Title: SSIS Package Upgrade Issue
Author: user
i've upgraded a SQL2016 instance to SQL2019, but many pacakges reprot errors int eh script task,t hat they need to be saved, or upgraded. can i address that issue at teh server level, isntead of modifying the packages?
Author: ChatGPT
The issue you're facing is common when upgrading from SQL Server 2016 to SQL Server 2019, particularly with SSIS packages that include Script Tasks or Script Components. These need to be recompiled using the newer version of the .NET Framework and Visual Studio Tools for Applications (VSTA) that SQL Server 2019 uses.
Unfortunately, this cannot be resolved purely at the server level. The packages themselves must be modified or recompiled in the following way:
1. **Open the package in Visual Studio**: You will need to use SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) for Visual Studio 2019 or later, which supports SQL Server 2019.
2. **Upgrade the Script Task**:
- Open the Script Task/Component.
- Click the "Edit Script" button to open the script in VSTA.
- Rebuild the project inside VSTA.
3. **Save and redeploy the package**: After rebuilding the script, save the package and redeploy it to the SSISDB or file system.
The reason you need to recompile the Script Tasks is that SQL Server 2019 uses a different version of the .NET Framework compared to SQL Server 2016, and the VSTA runtime also changes between versions.

To automate the process of upgrading SSIS packages containing Script Tasks, you can streamline several steps using a combination of PowerShell and SSIS package management utilities. While there is no full automation for editing and recompiling the scripts, you can automate the detection, extraction, and redeployment of packages. Here???s a guide to help automate most of the process:
### Step 1: Detect SSIS Packages with Script Tasks
First, you'll need to identify which SSIS packages contain Script Tasks. You can do this by querying the SSISDB or scanning package files if you???re working with package deployment models.
#### Query the SSISDB for Script Tasks in Deployed Packages
You can run the following query in SQL Server to find packages with Script Tasks:
```sql
SELECT [package_name], [project_name], [folder_name], [environment_reference_id], [executions].[execution_id]
FROM [SSISDB].[catalog].[executions]
JOIN [SSISDB].[catalog].[operation_messages]
ON [executions].[execution_id] = [operation_messages].[operation_id]
WHERE [message] LIKE '%Script Task%' OR [message] LIKE '%Script Component%'
```
This will give you a list of package executions that encountered errors related to Script Tasks or Script Components.
### Step 2: Extract SSIS Packages for Editing
Once you know which packages need upgrading, you can extract them using PowerShell and SSIS APIs. You can automate the retrieval of these packages if they are deployed to the SSISDB.
Here???s a PowerShell script to download SSIS packages from the SSISDB:
```powershell
# Define server and connection
$serverName = "YourSQLServerName"
$databaseName = "SSISDB"
$folderName = "YourFolderName"
$projectName = "YourProjectName"
$packageName = "YourPackageName"
# Establish a connection to the SSISDB
$connectionString = "Server=$serverName;Database=$databaseName;Integrated Security=True;"
$sqlQuery = @"
SELECT [package_data]
FROM [catalog].[packages]
WHERE [folder_name] = '$folderName'
AND [project_name] = '$projectName'
AND [name] = '$packageName'
"@
# Export the package
$packageData = Invoke-Sqlcmd -Query $sqlQuery -ConnectionString $connectionString
$packageFile = "C:\path\to\export\$packageName.dtsx"
[System.IO.File]::WriteAllBytes($packageFile, [Convert]::FromBase64String($packageData.package_data))
```
This script extracts SSIS packages from the SSISDB, and you can apply it for every package that needs editing.
### Step 3: Rebuild Script Tasks in Visual Studio
You???ll need to open the SSIS project in **SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) for Visual Studio 2019** and recompile the Script Tasks. While this part can't be fully automated, you can follow these steps:
1. Open each package in SSDT.
2. Open the Script Task and click "Edit Script."
3. Rebuild the script in **Visual Studio for Applications (VSTA)**.
4. Save the changes.
### Step 4: Redeploy Packages to the SSISDB
Once the packages are modified and saved, you can automate the redeployment using PowerShell and the **DTUTIL** utility or through SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) directly.
Here???s a PowerShell example using DTUTIL to redeploy:
```powershell
$dtutilPath = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\150\DTS\Binn\DTUTIL.exe"
$packagePath = "C:\path\to\modified\$packageName.dtsx"
$serverName = "YourSQLServerName"
$packageName = "YourPackageName"
# Deploy package back to SSISDB
& $dtutilPath /FILE "$packagePath" /COPY SQL;"\$serverName\$packageName" /Q
```
### Step 5: Verify Deployment
After deploying the package, you can verify its success by running the package or querying the SSISDB logs:
```sql
SELECT *
FROM [SSISDB].[catalog].[operation_messages]
WHERE [operation_id] = (SELECT MAX(operation_id) FROM [SSISDB].[catalog].[executions])
```
This checks the latest package execution logs to ensure there are no script-related errors.
### Summary of Automation
1. **Identify Packages with Script Tasks** ??? Query SSISDB to detect packages with script-related errors.
2. **Extract Packages** ??? Use PowerShell to export packages that need to be modified.
3. **Manually Update Script Tasks** ??? Recompile the Script Tasks in SSDT for Visual Studio.
4. **Redeploy Packages** ??? Use DTUTIL or PowerShell scripts to redeploy the modified packages.
5. **Verify** ??? Use SSISDB logs or execution results to confirm successful deployment.
Though steps involving **Script Task** modification can't be automated entirely, this approach minimizes manual work. Would you like more details on any of the steps or assistance with a specific part of the process?

The error you're seeing is related to a version mismatch in the **Script Component** of your SSIS package after upgrading to SQL Server 2019. It suggests that the version of the Script Component in the Data Flow Task is higher than what is currently installed or supported on the system where you're trying to execute the package.
### Possible Causes:
1. **SSIS Version Mismatch**: The package may have been developed in a higher version of SSIS, or it contains components that are not fully compatible with your current SQL Server/SSIS installation.
2. **.NET Framework Version**: SQL Server 2019 uses a newer version of the .NET Framework for Script Tasks/Components. If the package wasn't recompiled for SQL Server 2019, the version mismatch occurs.
3. **Pipeline Version**: The package might contain components that were upgraded to work with newer versions of SSIS pipeline than what is installed on the server.
### Solution Steps
1. **Open the Package in SSDT (Visual Studio)**
- Open **SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT)** for Visual Studio 2019 or later.
- Load the SSIS project containing the package.
2. **Recompile the Script Component**
- In the Data Flow Task, locate the Script Component that is causing the issue.
- Right-click on the Script Component and click "Edit".
- Rebuild the script inside the **Visual Studio for Applications (VSTA)** editor to ensure it is compiled for the current version of .NET and the SQL Server 2019 SSIS pipeline.
3. **Upgrade the Package**
- If prompted, upgrade the SSIS package and its components when you open it in SSDT. This ensures that all components are compatible with SQL Server 2019.
4. **Save and Redeploy the Package**
- After rebuilding the Script Component, save the changes to the package.
- Redeploy the package to the SSISDB or the file system where the package is executed.
5. **Install the Correct Version of SSDT**
- Ensure that you have the correct version of **SSDT** installed that is compatible with SQL Server 2019.
- You can download **SSDT for Visual Studio 2019** from the Microsoft website.

in the dtsx pacakge, i don't see a script component. i only see execute SQL tasks and Data Flow Tasks
Author: ChatGPT
If you don't see a **Script Component** directly in the package, but are still encountering the error, the Script Component could be embedded within a **Data Flow Task**. Here's how you can investigate further and resolve the issue:
### Steps to Investigate and Resolve
1. **Open the Data Flow Task**:
- Double-click on the **Data Flow Task** that is triggering the error.
- Inside the Data Flow, check for any **Script Components**. These might be configured as **Source**, **Transformation**, or **Destination** components within the Data Flow.
2. **Examine All Components in the Data Flow**:
- Look through each component within the Data Flow Task to see if a **Script Component** is present.
- Even if it's not immediately visible, it could be named differently or nested within another transformation.
3. **Check Version of Components**:
- If no Script Component is explicitly visible, it???s possible that another transformation or component within the Data Flow might be misconfigured or outdated.
- Right-click each component in the Data Flow, and select **Properties** or **Advanced Editor** to inspect if there are any version or compatibility issues.
4. **Validate the Package**:
- After checking the components, you can **validate** the SSIS package in Visual Studio by right-clicking on the package in **Solution Explorer** and selecting **Validate**. This will give you more information on any version mismatches or errors.
5. **Upgrade the Package**:
- After making sure there are no misconfigured components, you can attempt to upgrade the package:
- Right-click the package in Solution Explorer.
- Choose **Upgrade** if this option is available. This should ensure that all components are compatible with SQL Server 2019.
### Further Diagnostics
If the issue persists or if no Script Components are found, here are additional things you can try:
- **Run the Package in Debug Mode**:
- Try running the package in **debug mode** within Visual Studio. This might help identify where exactly the error occurs within the Data Flow Task.
- **Check SSISDB or Event Logs**:
- If the package is deployed, you can check the execution logs in the **SSISDB** catalog for more detailed error information.
- Alternatively, check the SQL Server event logs for any additional insights about the component causing the failure.

the portion referring to "IDTSManagedComponentWrapper100" seems like it is refering to the old SQL2008 / version 10 , and not a more modern. is there a way to fix that?
Author: ChatGPT
You're correct in noting that `IDTSManagedComponentWrapper100` refers to a legacy version of the SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) API, specifically from SQL Server 2008 (version 10). This can happen if components in the package were originally created or designed in SQL Server 2008 or another earlier version and have not been properly upgraded during the transition to SQL Server 2019.
Here???s how you can resolve this issue by updating the SSIS components and ensuring they use the correct version for SQL Server 2019:
### Steps to Fix the `IDTSManagedComponentWrapper100` Issue:
1. **Reopen the Package in SSDT (SQL Server Data Tools)**
- Open **SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT)** for Visual Studio 2019 or later.
- Load the SSIS project that contains the package.
2. **Check the Data Flow Tasks for Old Components**
- Go to the **Data Flow Task** where the error occurs.
- Right-click on each component (especially custom or third-party components) and open the **Advanced Editor** to check the version information.
3. **Upgrade the Package Components**
- If the components are still using an old pipeline version (SQL Server 2008/10), you need to upgrade them to be compatible with SQL Server 2019.
- Right-click on the SSIS package in **Solution Explorer** and select **Upgrade All** if available, or go to each component in the **Data Flow Task** and manually upgrade it.
- Alternatively, you can use the **SSIS Package Upgrade Wizard**:
1. In **Visual Studio**, go to **Tools** > **SSDT**.
2. Use the **SSIS Package Upgrade Wizard** to automatically upgrade legacy components.
4. **Replace Outdated Components**
- If certain components (e.g., Script Components) were built on older versions, you may need to manually recreate those components with modern versions.
- Recreate the Data Flow or Script Component using the latest available version in SSDT.
- In the **Advanced Editor**, make sure the component version is compatible with SQL Server 2019.
5. **Check Package TargetServerVersion**
- Ensure that the SSIS package's **TargetServerVersion** is set to **SQL Server 2019**.
- In Visual Studio:
1. Right-click the project in Solution Explorer.
2. Click **Properties**.
3. Under **Configuration Properties** > **General**, verify that **TargetServerVersion** is set to **SQL Server 2019**.
This ensures that all components are upgraded for the SQL Server 2019 environment.
6. **Test and Validate the Package**
- After upgrading or replacing the legacy components, test the package in Visual Studio by running it in **Debug Mode**.
- Validate the package by right-clicking on it in **Solution Explorer** and selecting **Validate**. This checks for any remaining version compatibility issues.
### Other Considerations
- **.NET Framework Compatibility**: SQL Server 2019 SSIS uses a different version of the .NET Framework, so ensure that any **Script Tasks/Components** are recompiled using the latest framework supported by SQL Server 2019.
- **Component-Specific Upgrades**: If you are using third-party SSIS components, ensure that they are compatible with SQL Server 2019. Visit the vendor???s website for updated versions of the components, if necessary.
### Final Redeployment
Once you've made the necessary updates:
- Save the package and redeploy it to the SSISDB or your preferred deployment method (file system, SQL Server).
- Run the package to ensure no further version mismatch errors occur.

using the advanced editor you suggested, i see my OleDB Sources and Destinations have this string for "contact Info": OLE DB Destination;Microsoft Corporation; Microsoft SqlServer v10; (C) Microsoft Corporation; All Rights Reserved; http://www.microsoft.com/sql/support;4
Author: ChatGPT
User's SSIS package contains OLE DB Sources and Destinations with the "contact info" string pointing to SQL Server v10 components.
Author: tool
Model set context updated.
Author: ChatGPT
The "contact info" string pointing to **Microsoft SqlServer v10** indicates that the **OLE DB Sources and Destinations** in your SSIS package are using components from SQL Server 2008 (v10). Since you are now on SQL Server 2019, you should upgrade these components to be compatible with the newer version.
Here???s how you can address this:
### Steps to Upgrade OLE DB Components
1. **Reconfigure OLE DB Components**:
- Open the **Advanced Editor** for each **OLE DB Source** and **OLE DB Destination** in your Data Flow Task.
- Ensure that the **OLE DB Connection Manager** is pointing to the correct SQL Server 2019 instance.
- Review the **Connection Manager** properties and update any legacy settings that might be tied to the old SQL Server version.
2. **Replace with Updated OLE DB Component**:
- If simply reconfiguring the connection doesn???t work, you might need to delete and recreate the **OLE DB Source** and **OLE DB Destination** components.
- This will ensure that the components are updated to use the correct version that matches SQL Server 2019.
3. **Use the SSIS Package Upgrade Wizard**:
- If multiple packages or components are involved, use the **SSIS Package Upgrade Wizard** to automate the upgrade process:
- In **Visual Studio**, go to **Tools** > **SQL Server Integration Services** > **Upgrade Packages**.
- Follow the prompts to upgrade all components, including the OLE DB Sources/Destinations.
4. **Check Component Versions**:
- After upgrading the components, recheck the **Contact Info** in the **Advanced Editor** to ensure it reflects the correct version for SQL Server 2019.
### Additional Considerations:
- **Test the Package**: After making changes, always run the package in debug mode to verify that it runs correctly with no version conflicts.
- **Check Connection Managers**: Verify that the **Connection Managers** are also upgraded and compatible with SQL Server 2019.
- **Check Data Types**: When working with OLE DB components, ensure that the data types for source and destination columns are correctly mapped after the upgrade.

yes. i need more help. i've ran the SSIS Package Upgrade Wizard, which was found under Project>Upgrade All Packages. I could not find Tools>SQL Server Integration Services>Upgrade Pacakges
Author: ChatGPT
It looks like you've already used the **Upgrade All Packages** option under **Project > Upgrade All Packages**, which is the correct process for bulk upgrading the packages in Visual Studio. Since you're still experiencing issues with the OLE DB components, we can take some additional steps to ensure those components are properly upgraded and configured for SQL Server 2019.
### Next Steps for Resolving the Issue
1. **Check Upgraded Components Again in the Advanced Editor**:
- After running the **Upgrade All Packages** wizard, go back into the **Advanced Editor** for the **OLE DB Source** and **OLE DB Destination** components and check the **Contact Info** again.
- Ensure the string no longer references **v10**. It should now be referencing a newer version, ideally something related to **v15** or **SQL Server 2019**.
2. **Delete and Recreate OLE DB Components**:
- If the **Contact Info** still points to **v10** after the upgrade:
- Remove the existing **OLE DB Source** and **OLE DB Destination** components.
- Add **new** OLE DB components from the toolbox in your Data Flow Task and reconfigure them with the appropriate **Connection Managers**.
- After adding new components, check the **Contact Info** field again to confirm that it points to the latest version.
Recreating the components can help reset them to use the appropriate version for SQL Server 2019.
3. **Update Connection Managers**:
- Ensure the **OLE DB Connection Manager** used by the OLE DB components is also correctly configured for SQL Server 2019.
- Open each **Connection Manager** (right-click on the connection in the **Connection Managers** pane, choose **Properties**).
- Check that the **provider** being used is up to date. For SQL Server 2019, you should use the latest **OLE DB provider** (e.g., **MSOLEDBSQL**) if possible. If it's still using an older provider, update it to the latest version.
4. **Check Package Target Server Version**:
- Ensure that the package is targeting SQL Server 2019:
- Right-click on the SSIS project in Solution Explorer and go to **Properties**.
- Under **Configuration Properties** > **General**, verify that **TargetServerVersion** is set to **SQL Server 2019**.
5. **Validate and Debug the Package**:
- After making these changes, validate the package by right-clicking on the package in Solution Explorer and selecting **Validate**.
- Run the package in **debug mode** to ensure it runs without errors.
6. **Manually Upgrade Package (if Needed)**:
- If recreating the components does not solve the issue, you may need to manually update the SSIS XML code (in the .dtsx file) by searching for the version references. If you're comfortable with this:
- Open the **.dtsx** file in a text editor (right-click > View Code).
- Look for any references to **v10** or **IDTSManagedComponentWrapper100** and update them to the version that corresponds to SQL Server 2019.
- Save the file and reload it in Visual Studio to check for any further issues.

is there a way to edit the xml, so all my oledb data sources and destinations are the correct version?
Author: ChatGPT
Yes, you can directly edit the **.dtsx** file (which is the XML representation of your SSIS package) to update all the **OLE DB Sources** and **OLE DB Destinations** to the correct version. This approach can save you time if you have many components that need updating.
### Steps to Update OLE DB Components via XML:
1. **Backup the Package**:
- Before making any changes, create a backup of your **.dtsx** file in case something goes wrong.
2. **Open the .dtsx File in XML View**:
- In **Visual Studio**, right-click the package file (e.g., **MyPackage.dtsx**) in **Solution Explorer**.
- Select **View Code** to open the package in its raw XML format.
3. **Search for OLE DB Components**:
- Use **Ctrl+F** to search for the term **"ContactInfo"** or **"v10"**. This will help you locate the components referencing the older version (SQL Server 2008 or version 10).
- You'll likely see entries similar to this:
```xml
<DTS:ObjectData>
<pipeline:ComponentClassID>{BCEFE59B-6819-47F5-AD4E-1D5C38DCD70A}</pipeline:ComponentClassID>
<pipeline:ContactInfo>OLE DB Destination;Microsoft Corporation; Microsoft SqlServer v10; (C) Microsoft Corporation; All Rights Reserved; http://www.microsoft.com/sql/support;4</pipeline:ContactInfo>
</DTS:ObjectData>
```
4. **Update the Version Information**:
- Replace the reference to **Microsoft SqlServer v10** with the appropriate version for SQL Server 2019.
- For example, you can change **v10** to **v15** for SQL Server 2019, or update the entire **ContactInfo** field to reflect the correct version.
```xml
<pipeline:ContactInfo>OLE DB Destination;Microsoft Corporation; Microsoft SqlServer v15; (C) Microsoft Corporation; All Rights Reserved; http://www.microsoft.com/sql/support;4</pipeline:ContactInfo>
```
5. **Update Component IDs (if needed)**:
- In some cases, you might need to update the **ComponentClassID** or other version-specific attributes. However, for OLE DB Sources and Destinations, updating the **ContactInfo** string is usually sufficient.
6. **Search and Replace Globally**:
- If you have many OLE DB components, you can use the **Find and Replace** feature to quickly update all references to **v10** or **IDTSManagedComponentWrapper100** to the newer version.
- Make sure to only replace instances related to **OLE DB** components, as other components might legitimately need different handling.
7. **Save the Changes**:
- Once you've made the necessary changes, save the **.dtsx** file.
- Visual Studio will reload the package. You can verify the changes by reopening the **Advanced Editor** for the components and checking the **Contact Info** field.
8. **Validate the Package**:
- After editing the XML, validate the package to ensure that no version conflicts or errors remain:
- Right-click the package in **Solution Explorer** and choose **Validate**.
- Run the package in debug mode to test that it works correctly.
### Important Notes:
- Be cautious when directly editing the XML, as incorrect changes can corrupt the package.
- **ComponentClassID** may need to be updated for specific components. If the package was originally developed in SQL Server 2008, the Class ID might be outdated as well. The correct **ComponentClassID** for the OLE DB Source and Destination in SQL Server 2019 is typically:
- **OLE DB Source**: `{E2568107-7A7F-4DD9-9869-9A6B784A1637}`
- **OLE DB Destination**: `{F76FEC85-8650-4DDF-95F1-12EAC6B02C1A}`

so far, with this technique, i've foxed data sources and script components, however, i still see some otehr references that i think are for version 10, like IDTSConnectionManager100
Author: ChatGPT
It sounds like you've made significant progress updating your **Data Sources** and **Script Components**, but there are still references to older components, such as `IDTSConnectionManager100`, which likely points to an older SQL Server (SQL Server 2008, version 10).
To fully upgrade your SSIS package, including these **Connection Managers**, you can follow similar steps as with the other components by directly editing the **.dtsx** file.
### How to Update `IDTSConnectionManager100` and Other Legacy References in the .dtsx File
1. **Backup Your Package**:
- Before making changes, create a backup of the **.dtsx** file.
2. **Open the .dtsx File in XML View**:
- Right-click your package file in **Visual Studio** and choose **View Code** to open the **XML**.
3. **Search for `IDTSConnectionManager100`**:
- Use **Ctrl+F** to search for **`IDTSConnectionManager100`** or similar legacy references.
- This corresponds to SQL Server 2008 or **version 10**.
4. **Update the Connection Manager Version**:
- Replace any instances of **`IDTSConnectionManager100`** with **`IDTSConnectionManager150`** to match the **SQL Server 2019** (version 15) environment.
- Example of the line that needs to be updated:
```xml
<DTS:ConnectionManager>
<DTS:CreationName>OLEDB;Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.IDTSConnectionManager100</DTS:CreationName>
</DTS:ConnectionManager>
```
- Change it to:
```xml
<DTS:ConnectionManager>
<DTS:CreationName>OLEDB;Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.IDTSConnectionManager150</DTS:CreationName>
</DTS:ConnectionManager>
```
5. **Update Other Legacy References**:
- If you see other references like **`IDTSComponentMetaData100`**, **`IDTSPipeline100`**, or similar components using **100**, these also correspond to **version 10**.
- Replace **`100`** with **`150`** to reflect SQL Server 2019.
- For example:
```xml
<DTS:Pipeline>
<DTS:CreationName>Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper.IDTSPipeline100</DTS:CreationName>
</DTS:Pipeline>
```
should be updated to:
```xml
<DTS:Pipeline>
<DTS:CreationName>Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper.IDTSPipeline150</DTS:CreationName>
</DTS:Pipeline>
```
6. **Check Connection Manager Properties**:
- After updating the version references, confirm that the **Connection Manager** properties are still valid and pointing to the correct SQL Server instance.
- In **Visual Studio**, after editing the XML, go to the **Connection Managers** pane, right-click the **Connection Manager**, and choose **Properties** to validate.
7. **Save the File and Validate the Package**:
- Once the changes are made, save the file and return to the **Design View** of the package.
- Right-click the package in **Solution Explorer** and select **Validate** to ensure that there are no errors.
8. **Run and Test the Package**:
- After validating, run the package in **debug mode** to ensure it works without any version conflicts or legacy component issues.
### Important Notes:
- **Component Class IDs**: As you continue updating, ensure that any Class IDs or references to pipeline components are compatible with SQL Server 2019.
- **Manual Updates**: Editing the XML manually is powerful but requires attention to detail, especially when replacing legacy components. If you miss certain references, the package might still encounter errors.
By globally searching for and replacing the **100** version references with **150**, you should be able to modernize all connection managers and components. This should resolve the remaining legacy version issues.

i have a script component originally written for SQL2008. this line now raises an error saying Connections do not contain a definition for 'Target': (SqlConnection)Connections.Target.AcquireConnection(null))
Author: ChatGPT
The issue you're encountering is related to changes in how connection managers are accessed in newer versions of SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS). In SSIS 2008, the connection objects were accessed using the `Connections&#91;"Target"]` syntax, but this has changed in later versions, such as SQL Server 2016 and 2019.
### What's changed:
In newer versions of SSIS, the connection manager's access pattern has been slightly modified, and the `Connections&#91;"Target"]` pattern is no longer directly supported. The `Connections` collection no longer has a property called `Target` that is directly usable in the same way.
You can resolve this issue by updating the code to use the **ConnectionManager** object and casting the acquired connection appropriately.
### Updated Code Example for SQL Server 2019
Here???s how you can update your script to handle connections properly in SSIS 2019:
1. **Acquire the Connection Manager**:
- Instead of using `Connections.Target`, you should retrieve the connection manager by name using the `Connections&#91;"Target"]` syntax, then cast it to an appropriate type.
2. **Acquire the Connection**:
- The **AcquireConnection** method is still used, but it now requires the connection manager to be cast into a more specific type, such as **SqlConnection** for OLE DB connections.
Here is an example of how to refactor the line that acquires the connection:
```csharp
// Acquire the connection from the connection manager named "Target"
ConnectionManager connMgr = this.Connections&#91;"Target"];
// Cast the acquired connection to SqlConnection
SqlConnection sqlConn = (SqlConnection)connMgr.AcquireConnection(null);
```
### Breakdown:
1. **ConnectionManager connMgr = this.Connections&#91;"Target"]**:
Retrieves the connection manager by name (in your case, the name is `Target`).
2. **AcquireConnection(null)**:
This method is still used to acquire the connection object. The `null` argument is passed because SSIS does not use the transaction argument in the script component.
3. **SqlConnection sqlConn**:
Cast the acquired connection to the appropriate type, such as **SqlConnection**. If your connection is an OLE DB connection, you would cast it to the correct type (depending on the connection manager type).
### Important Considerations:
- **Check the Connection Manager Type**: Ensure that the connection you're working with is indeed an **SQL Connection**. If you're working with other connection types (e.g., OLE DB), you need to cast the acquired connection to the correct type accordingly (e.g., `OleDbConnection` for OLE DB connections).
If you are unsure about the connection type, you can inspect it first:
```csharp
ConnectionManager connMgr = this.Connections&#91;"Target"];
object conn = connMgr.AcquireConnection(null);
// Check connection type
if (conn is SqlConnection)
{
SqlConnection sqlConn = (SqlConnection)conn;
// Now use sqlConn
}
else
{
// Handle other types, like OleDbConnection, etc.
}
```
### Full Example:
If your full original code looks like this:
```csharp
SqlConnection sqlConn = (SqlConnection)Connections.Target.AcquireConnection(null);
```
It would now be rewritten like this:
```csharp
// Retrieve the connection manager by name (in this case, "Target")
ConnectionManager connMgr = this.Connections&#91;"Target"];
// Acquire and cast the connection as an SqlConnection
SqlConnection sqlConn = (SqlConnection)connMgr.AcquireConnection(null);
// Now you can use sqlConn to execute commands, queries, etc.
```
### Conclusion:
By making these changes, your script component will be compatible with the newer versions of SSIS (SQL Server 2019). The connection management model has been updated, so it's necessary to explicitly handle connection managers and acquire connections through them.
Let me know if you need further clarifications or help with this!

'a little more detail, the full line features the "using" statement, so teh object is dropped after the code is complete: using (SqlConnection conn = (SqlConnection)Connections.Target.AcquireConnection(null))
Author: ChatGPT
Thank you for the additional detail. Since you're using the `using` statement to manage the connection lifecycle (which ensures the connection is disposed of properly after the operation), you can adapt the code to handle SSIS 2019's newer connection management model while still using `using`.
Here's a detailed explanation and code that includes your original `using` statement.
### Refactoring the Line with `using`:
In SSIS 2019, you need to explicitly retrieve the **ConnectionManager** by name, acquire the connection, and then cast it to the proper type. You can still use the `using` statement to ensure the connection is disposed of automatically.
### Updated Full Code with `using`:
Here???s how to rewrite your `using` statement with the correct connection acquisition:
```csharp
// Retrieve the connection manager by name
ConnectionManager connMgr = this.Connections&#91;"Target"];
// Acquire and cast the connection as SqlConnection
using (SqlConnection conn = (SqlConnection)connMgr.AcquireConnection(null))
{
// Now you can use the 'conn' SqlConnection object here for executing queries, etc.
// Example usage (this is just a placeholder for actual logic):
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM MyTable", conn);
using (SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
while (reader.Read())
{
// Process the data
}
}
}
// The 'conn' object will be automatically disposed at the end of the 'using' block
```
### Detailed Breakdown:
1. **Retrieve the Connection Manager**:
- Use `this.Connections&#91;"Target"]` to access the connection manager named **Target**.
2. **Use the `AcquireConnection` Method**:
- `connMgr.AcquireConnection(null)` gets the actual connection object. In your case, this is an **`SqlConnection`** object, so you cast it as `(SqlConnection)`.
3. **The `using` Statement**:
- The `using` block ensures that the connection is properly disposed of once the block is exited. This is good practice because it automatically closes the connection, avoiding resource leaks.
4. **Inside the `using` Block**:
- Once the connection is acquired and cast to **`SqlConnection`**, you can use it as you would in any normal **ADO.NET** code. For example, you can create a `SqlCommand`, execute it, and read results using `SqlDataReader`.
5. **Disposal of the Connection**:
- The connection (`conn`) will be automatically closed and disposed of when the `using` block is exited.
### Explanation of Changes:
- **`this.Connections&#91;"Target"]`**: This replaces the legacy `Connections.Target` reference, ensuring compatibility with SSIS 2019.
- **Explicitly casting with `(SqlConnection)`**: You must cast the connection because **`AcquireConnection`** returns a general **object** type, and SSIS doesn't automatically assume it's a `SqlConnection`.
### Error Handling (Optional):
You might also want to include error handling in your code to ensure that the package handles any connection issues gracefully.
For example:
```csharp
try
{
ConnectionManager connMgr = this.Connections&#91;"Target"];
using (SqlConnection conn = (SqlConnection)connMgr.AcquireConnection(null))
{
// Your logic here (e.g., execute commands, read data)
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
// Handle any exceptions that occur
Dts.Events.FireError(0, "ScriptComponent", ex.Message, "", 0);
}
```
This would allow you to capture any exceptions, such as connection failures, and handle them appropriately in your SSIS package.
### Conclusion:
By updating the `using` statement and the connection acquisition method, your script component will work properly in SQL Server 2019. The key is acquiring the connection via the `ConnectionManager` and casting it to the correct type before using it.
Let me know if you need further clarification or if there's another part of the script that needs adjusting!

am i missing a reference? i have this reference in my file: using System.Data.SqlClient; // Add this, but i get an error on the line "ConnectionManager connMgr = this.Connections&#91;"Target"];"
Author: ChatGPT
The error you're encountering likely occurs because the **Script Component** does not automatically expose the `Connections` collection as it would in a **Script Task**. The `this.Connections` object is only available in **Script Tasks**, but not directly in **Script Components**.
In a **Script Component**, connection managers are accessed differently, using the `ConnectionManager` property inside the **PreExecute** or **ProcessInput** methods of the component. Let???s walk through how to properly access a connection manager in a **Script Component**.
### Step-by-Step for Accessing Connection Managers in a Script Component
1. **Add a Connection Manager in the Script Component Editor**:
- Right-click the **Script Component** and choose **Edit**.
- In the **Script Transformation Editor**, under **Connection Managers**, click **Add** and select the connection manager (e.g., OLE DB or SQL Server) that you want to use. Name it something like **Target**.
2. **Access the Connection in the Script Component**:
In **Script Components**, connections are accessed through the `AcquireConnection` method using the `Connections` property, but you don???t use `this.Connections&#91;"Target"]` like in a Script Task. Instead, you pass the connection name and explicitly call `AcquireConnection` using the **IDTSConnectionManager100** interface.
Here's how you can modify your code:
```csharp
public override void PreExecute()
{
base.PreExecute();
// Access the connection manager named "Target"
IDTSConnectionManager100 connMgr = this.Connections&#91;"Target"];
// Acquire the connection
SqlConnection sqlConn = (SqlConnection)connMgr.AcquireConnection(null);
}
```
You???ll use the connection inside **PreExecute**, or if needed, you can also acquire the connection in the **ProcessInput** method if you're processing input rows.
3. **Ensure You Have Proper References**:
- **System.Data.SqlClient** is correct for using SQL Server connections (as you already have).
- **Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper** is required for working with **SSIS Connections**. If this reference is missing, ensure it's added:
- In the **Solution Explorer**, right-click on **References** in your project.
- Click **Add Reference**.
- In the **Assemblies** tab, look for **Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper** and add it.
- You may also need a reference to **Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper** if working with pipeline components.
4. **Casting the Connection Correctly**:
Depending on the type of connection manager you're using, you may need to cast it to the appropriate type. If you're using an **OLE DB Connection**, the cast will be different from **SqlConnection**.
For example, with an **OLE DB** connection:
```csharp
OleDbConnection oledbConn = (OleDbConnection)connMgr.AcquireConnection(null);
```
### Full Example:
If your original task was to execute a SQL command using a **SqlConnection**, here's a full example in the **PreExecute** method:
```csharp
public override void PreExecute()
{
base.PreExecute();
// Access the connection manager named "Target"
IDTSConnectionManager100 connMgr = this.Connections&#91;"Target"];
// Acquire the connection from the connection manager (as SqlConnection)
SqlConnection sqlConn = (SqlConnection)connMgr.AcquireConnection(null);
// Use the sqlConn object to execute SQL commands here
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM MyTable", sqlConn);
using (SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
while (reader.Read())
{
// Process the data
}
}
// Always ensure the connection is properly released afterward
connMgr.ReleaseConnection(sqlConn);
}
```
### Release the Connection:
Don't forget to release the connection after you're done, using `ReleaseConnection` to ensure resources are properly disposed:
```csharp
connMgr.ReleaseConnection(sqlConn);
```
### Troubleshooting:
If you're still seeing issues, ensure that:
- The **Connection Manager** is properly added in the **Script Component Editor**.
- The correct references are added (especially `Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper`).
- The connection name (`"Target"`) matches the name you assigned to the connection manager.
By following this method, you should be able to acquire and use the connection inside your **Script Component**. Let me know if this helps or if you need further clarification!

when trying to add the reference to Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper , it does nto appear in the available list
Author: ChatGPT
If **`Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper`** is not appearing in the available list of references, it's possible that the required SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) assemblies are not correctly installed on your machine. This can happen after an upgrade, or if certain components weren't installed during the setup of SQL Server 2019.
Here are some steps you can follow to resolve this issue:
### 1. **Install SSIS Development Tools (SSDT) for Visual Studio**
Ensure that you have the latest version of **SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT)** for Visual Studio, which includes support for developing SSIS packages.
You can download SSDT from here:
- &#91;Download SSDT for Visual Studio 2019](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ssdt/download-sql-server-data-tools-ssdt)
After installing or updating SSDT, restart Visual Studio and check if the `Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper` assembly becomes available in the reference list.
### 2. **Manually Add the Assembly Reference**
If the assembly isn't showing in the list but is installed on your system, you can manually add it by browsing to the location where the DLL is stored.
Here???s how to do that:
1. **Find the DLL on your machine**:
The `Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.dll` file is typically located in one of these folders:
- For SQL Server 2019:
```
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\150\SDK\Assemblies\
```
- For SQL Server 2017:
```
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\140\SDK\Assemblies\
```
If you upgraded from an earlier version of SQL Server, the folder `130` or `120` may also exist for SQL Server 2016 or 2014, respectively.
2. **Manually add the reference**:
- Right-click on **References** in Solution Explorer.
- Choose **Add Reference**.
- In the **Browse** section, navigate to the location where the **`Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.dll`** file is located.
- Select the DLL and add it.
### 3. **Install SQL Server Feature Pack**
If you cannot find the DLL in your system, you may need to install the **SQL Server 2019 Feature Pack**, which includes the necessary assemblies for SSIS:
- &#91;Download SQL Server 2019 Feature Pack](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=100809)
After installing the feature pack, try adding the reference again.
### 4. **Check the Global Assembly Cache (GAC)**
Another possibility is that the assembly is already installed in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) but not showing in the list. You can check the GAC:
1. Open **Command Prompt** as Administrator.
2. Run this command to see if the assembly is registered:
```cmd
gacutil -l Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper
```
If it is registered, it should show up here, and you should be able to reference it by manually browsing for the DLL.
### 5. **Repair or Reinstall SQL Server Integration Services**
If the above steps don???t work, it???s possible that SSIS or some of its components may not have been correctly installed during your SQL Server installation or upgrade.
To reinstall or repair:
- Open **SQL Server Installation Center**.
- Choose **New SQL Server stand-alone installation** or add features to an existing installation.
- Ensure that **Integration Services** is selected during the installation process.
### Conclusion:
By either manually adding the reference or ensuring that all required components are installed (via SSDT, the feature pack, or repair), you should be able to reference `Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper` in your SSIS project. Let me know how it goes or if you encounter any issues!

Author: ChatGPT
To make your script compatible with SSIS 2019 and handle the connection acquisition properly in a **Script Component**, I'll modify the code to correctly access the connection manager and address the issues you've been encountering. In SSIS Script Components, connection managers are not accessed with `Connections.Target` directly like in a Script Task.
Here's an updated version of your script that will work in an SSIS Script Component:
### Key Changes:
- Use `IDTSConnectionManager100` to acquire the connection.
- The connection manager must be accessed via the connection name specified in the Script Component.
Here???s the modified script:
```csharp
using System;
using System.Data;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
&#91;Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.SSISScriptComponentEntryPointAttribute]
public class ScriptMain : UserComponent
{
private DataTable _data = null;
private DataRow myNewRow;
public override void PreExecute()
{
base.PreExecute();
// Initialize the DataTable to match the schema of your user-defined table type
_data = new DataTable();
_data.Columns.Add("EmployeeID", typeof(int));
_data.Columns.Add("EntityID", typeof(int));
_data.Columns.Add("PayGroup", typeof(string));
_data.Columns.Add("FileNo", typeof(string));
_data.Columns.Add("ClockNbr", typeof(string));
_data.Columns.Add("LOAStartDate", typeof(DateTime));
_data.Columns.Add("LOAEndDate", typeof(DateTime));
}
public override void Input0_ProcessInputRow(Input0Buffer Row)
{
myNewRow = _data.NewRow();
// Populate the DataRow based on the input row
if (!Row.EmployeeID_IsNull) myNewRow&#91;"EmployeeID"] = Row.EmployeeID;
if (!Row.EntityID_IsNull) myNewRow&#91;"EntityID"] = Row.EntityID;
if (!Row.PayGroup_IsNull) myNewRow&#91;"PayGroup"] = Row.PayGroup;
if (!Row.FileNo_IsNull) myNewRow&#91;"FileNo"] = Row.FileNo;
if (!Row.ClockNbr_IsNull) myNewRow&#91;"ClockNbr"] = Row.ClockNbr;
if (!Row.LOAStartDate_IsNull) myNewRow&#91;"LOAStartDate"] = Row.LOAStartDate;
if (!Row.LOAEndDate_IsNull) myNewRow&#91;"LOAEndDate"] = Row.LOAEndDate;
_data.Rows.Add(myNewRow);
}
public override void PostExecute()
{
base.PostExecute();
// Acquire the connection manager for SQL Server
IDTSConnectionManager100 connMgr = this.Connections&#91;"Target"];
// Acquire the SQL connection object
SqlConnection conn = (SqlConnection)connMgr.AcquireConnection(null);
try
{
// Open the connection if it's not already open
if (conn.State != ConnectionState.Open)
conn.Open();
// Prepare a stored procedure command to execute
SqlCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.CommandTimeout = 180; // Timeout set to 180 seconds
cmd.CommandText = "&#91;comp_feeds].&#91;sp_ANENT_LOAData_Insert_FromTable]";
// Add the table-valued parameter
SqlParameter param = cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ANENTDataTable", _data);
param.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.Structured;
// Execute the stored procedure
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
finally
{
// Always release the connection after use
connMgr.ReleaseConnection(conn);
}
}
}
```
### Key Points:
1. **Accessing the Connection Manager**:
- We use `IDTSConnectionManager100` to retrieve the connection manager for SQL Server.
- The connection is acquired using `connMgr.AcquireConnection(null)` and cast to `SqlConnection`.
2. **Handling Connections in SSIS**:
- In the `PostExecute` method, we make sure the connection is open before executing any commands.
- The connection is properly released using `connMgr.ReleaseConnection(conn)` after we're done executing the stored procedure.
3. **Table-Valued Parameter**:
- The `SqlParameter` is correctly set up with `SqlDbType.Structured` to pass the `DataTable` to the stored procedure.
4. **Error Handling**:
- The connection is wrapped in a `try-finally` block to ensure that the connection is released even if an error occurs.
### Before Running the Package:
- **Connection Manager**: Ensure that the **Target** connection manager (for your SQL Server) is added to the Script Component in the SSIS package designer. This name must match the name used in the script (`"Target"`).
This updated script should now work with your SQL Server 2019 SSIS package. Let me know if you need further adjustments!

In my SSISDB catalog, i have a folder named WorkForce, with multiple prjects,a nd each project ahs multiple packages. how can i programatically, via tsql, run Valdiate pacakge on each package? is tehre a stored procedure I can call for each?
Author: ChatGPT
Yes, you can programmatically run a validation on each package in the SSISDB catalog using T-SQL. The stored procedure you need is `catalog.validate_package`, which validates the specified package.
Here???s how you can write a T-SQL script that loops through each package in your **WorkForce** folder, iterates through all projects and packages, and calls the `catalog.validate_package` procedure for each one.
### Script Overview:
1. Retrieve all projects and packages in the **WorkForce** folder from the SSISDB.
2. For each package, call the `catalog.validate_package` stored procedure to validate the package.
### Step-by-Step T-SQL Script:
```sql
DECLARE @folder_name NVARCHAR(128) = 'WorkForce';
DECLARE @project_name NVARCHAR(128);
DECLARE @package_name NVARCHAR(128);
DECLARE @operation_id BIGINT;
-- Temporary table to hold project and package information
DECLARE @PackagesToValidate TABLE (
project_name NVARCHAR(128),
package_name NVARCHAR(128)
);
-- Step 1: Insert all projects and packages in the specified folder into the temporary table
INSERT INTO @PackagesToValidate (project_name, package_name)
SELECT pr.name AS project_name, pk.name AS package_name
FROM ssisdb.catalog.folders AS f
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects AS pr ON f.folder_id = pr.folder_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.packages AS pk ON pr.project_id = pk.project_id
WHERE f.name = @folder_name;
-- Step 2: Loop through each project and package in the folder and validate them
DECLARE PackageCursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT project_name, package_name
FROM @PackagesToValidate;
OPEN PackageCursor;
FETCH NEXT FROM PackageCursor INTO @project_name, @package_name;
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
BEGIN TRY
-- Step 3: Call the validate_package stored procedure
EXEC &#91;SSISDB].&#91;catalog].&#91;validate_package]
@folder_name = @folder_name,
@project_name = @project_name,
@package_name = @package_name,
@use32bitruntime = FALSE, -- Set to TRUE if you want to use the 32-bit runtime
@operation_id = @operation_id OUTPUT;
PRINT 'Validation started for package: ' + @package_name + ' in project: ' + @project_name;
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH
-- Handle errors
PRINT 'Error validating package: ' + @package_name + ' in project: ' + @project_name;
END CATCH;
-- Fetch the next package
FETCH NEXT FROM PackageCursor INTO @project_name, @package_name;
END
CLOSE PackageCursor;
DEALLOCATE PackageCursor;
```
### Explanation:
- **`@folder_name`**: This is set to `WorkForce`, which is the folder you're targeting. Adjust it if necessary.
- **`catalog.validate_package`**: This stored procedure is called to validate each package. It requires the folder name, project name, and package name.
- `@use32bitruntime`: Set to `FALSE` if you want to use the 64-bit runtime or `TRUE` for the 32-bit runtime.
- `@operation_id`: This will hold the ID of the validation operation. You can use it later for tracking or logging purposes.
- **`@PackagesToValidate`**: A temporary table is used to hold all the packages in the `WorkForce` folder.
- **Cursor Loop**: This loop goes through each project and package in the folder, calling the `validate_package` stored procedure for each one.
### Things to Consider:
- **Error Handling**: The `BEGIN TRY...END CATCH` block is used to catch and handle any errors that occur during validation.
- **Logging/Monitoring**: You can extend the script to log validation results by querying the SSISDB operations view for the `@operation_id`.
This script will allow you to validate all packages in the **WorkForce** folder automatically. Let me know if you need additional modifications!

and after the valdiations are complete, can i programaticalyl query for successful and unsuccessful validations
Author: ChatGPT
Yes, after the validations are complete, you can programmatically query the **SSISDB** catalog to retrieve the status of each validation operation. The `catalog.operations` and `catalog.operation_messages` views in the **SSISDB** database can help you with this.
The `catalog.operations` view stores information about all SSIS operations (such as package executions and validations). You can filter the results to retrieve the validation results.
Here???s a T-SQL script that will:
1. Query the `catalog.operations` view to get the status of each validation operation.
2. Optionally, join with the `catalog.operation_messages` view to get detailed messages for failed validations.
### Query for Validation Results:
```sql
DECLARE @folder_name NVARCHAR(128) = 'WorkForce';
-- Step 1: Query the catalog.operations to get the validation results
SELECT
o.operation_id,
o.project_name,
o.package_name,
o.start_time,
o.end_time,
o.status,
CASE
WHEN o.status = 1 THEN 'Succeeded'
WHEN o.status = 2 THEN 'Failed'
WHEN o.status = 3 THEN 'Canceled'
ELSE 'Unknown'
END AS validation_status
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
WHERE o.operation_type = 2 -- 2 represents a validation operation
AND o.folder_name = @folder_name
ORDER BY o.start_time DESC;
-- Step 2 (Optional): For failed validations, get detailed error messages
SELECT
o.operation_id,
o.project_name,
o.package_name,
om.message_time,
om.message
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.operation_messages om ON o.operation_id = om.operation_id
WHERE o.operation_type = 2 -- 2 represents a validation operation
AND o.status = 2 -- 2 represents failed operations
AND o.folder_name = @folder_name
ORDER BY om.message_time DESC;
```
### Explanation:
1. **`@folder_name`**: Set to `'WorkForce'`, the folder you're interested in.
2. **`catalog.operations`**: The main view to track operations. Here, you are looking for operations where `operation_type = 2` (which represents a **validation** operation).
- **`status`**:
- `1`: Succeeded.
- `2`: Failed.
- `3`: Canceled.
3. **`catalog.operation_messages`**: This view stores detailed messages related to operations. You can join it with `catalog.operations` to retrieve error messages for failed validations.
4. **Filtering**:
- The query filters on the **folder_name** and **operation_type** to focus on validation operations.
- The second query further filters to show only failed validation operations and their associated error messages.
### Output:
- The first query will give you a summary of validation results for each package, including the **operation_id**, **start/end time**, and whether the validation was **successful** or **failed**.
- The second query (optional) will return detailed error messages for any failed validations, showing the **message_time** and specific **message**.
You can modify the script to log or output these results to a table if you need to store the validation outcomes.

i get this error on a SQL2019 Server, but the script, pacakge was targeted to 2016 : The Script Task uses version 15.0 script that is not supported in this release of Integration Services.
Author: ChatGPT
The error you encountered, *"The Script Task uses version 15.0 script that is not supported in this release of Integration Services"*, occurs because the package was created or modified using SQL Server 2019 (Integration Services version 15.0), but the package is being executed on a lower version of SSIS (like SQL Server 2016, version 13.0). This is a backward compatibility issue where newer versions of SSIS scripts are not compatible with older SQL Server versions.
### How to Resolve the Issue
#### 1. **Retarget the Package for SQL Server 2016 (or Lower Version)**
Since you are targeting SQL Server 2016 for execution but developed or modified the package in SQL Server 2019, you need to reconfigure the package for SQL Server 2016 compatibility. Here's how:
**In SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT)**:
- Open the SSIS project in Visual Studio.
- Right-click on the project in **Solution Explorer**.
- Select **Properties**.
- Under **Configuration Properties**, navigate to **General**.
- Find **TargetServerVersion**.
- Change the value to **SQL Server 2016** (or any version you are targeting).
- Save and rebuild the project.
This will retarget the SSIS packages to a version compatible with SQL Server 2016.
#### 2. **Check Script Task Version**
- If the Script Task or Script Component was modified in SQL Server 2019, ensure you reset it to use a compatible version with SQL Server 2016 after changing the **TargetServerVersion** in the previous step.
- Open the **Script Task** or **Script Component** and ensure it compiles and runs without issues under the SQL Server 2016 environment.
#### 3. **Revalidate and Redeploy the Package**
- After retargeting and rebuilding the project for SQL Server 2016, validate the package.
- Deploy the package to the SQL Server 2016 SSIS Catalog (SSISDB) and test it again.
### Important Notes:
- **Backward compatibility**: Always ensure that the SSIS package version is compatible with the target SQL Server version where the package will run. Newer versions of SSIS are not backward compatible.
- **SSIS Deployment**: If you plan to move between different versions of SQL Server, it is better to develop and target the SSIS packages to the lowest version where they need to run.
By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the compatibility issues and successfully execute the SSIS packages on SQL Server 2016. Let me know if you need further help!

for executing the valdiation, i get an error stating the parameter @validation_id is required for the call to EXEC &#91;SSISDB].&#91;catalog].&#91;validate_package]
Author: ChatGPT
The error you're seeing about the `@validation_id` parameter indicates that SQL Server expects the `@validation_id` to be provided when calling `EXEC &#91;SSISDB].&#91;catalog].&#91;validate_package]`. This is actually a required output parameter that returns the ID for tracking the validation operation.
Here's the correct way to structure the `EXEC &#91;SSISDB].&#91;catalog].&#91;validate_package]` call to include the `@validation_id` parameter:
### Corrected T-SQL Script for Validation:
```sql
DECLARE @folder_name NVARCHAR(128) = 'WorkForce';
DECLARE @project_name NVARCHAR(128);
DECLARE @package_name NVARCHAR(128);
DECLARE @operation_id BIGINT;
DECLARE @validation_id BIGINT; -- Add the validation_id variable
-- Temporary table to hold project and package information
DECLARE @PackagesToValidate TABLE (
project_name NVARCHAR(128),
package_name NVARCHAR(128)
);
-- Step 1: Insert all projects and packages in the specified folder into the temporary table
INSERT INTO @PackagesToValidate (project_name, package_name)
SELECT pr.name AS project_name, pk.name AS package_name
FROM ssisdb.catalog.folders AS f
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects AS pr ON f.folder_id = pr.folder_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.packages AS pk ON pr.project_id = pk.project_id
WHERE f.name = @folder_name;
-- Step 2: Loop through each project and package in the folder and validate them
DECLARE PackageCursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT project_name, package_name
FROM @PackagesToValidate;
OPEN PackageCursor;
FETCH NEXT FROM PackageCursor INTO @project_name, @package_name;
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
BEGIN TRY
-- Step 3: Call the validate_package stored procedure with the required @validation_id
EXEC &#91;SSISDB].&#91;catalog].&#91;validate_package]
@folder_name = @folder_name,
@project_name = @project_name,
@package_name = @package_name,
@use32bitruntime = FALSE, -- Set to TRUE if you want to use the 32-bit runtime
@operation_id = @operation_id OUTPUT, -- operation_id for tracking
@validation_id = @validation_id OUTPUT; -- Add the validation_id
PRINT 'Validation started for package: ' + @package_name + ' in project: ' + @project_name;
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH
-- Handle errors
PRINT 'Error validating package: ' + @package_name + ' in project: ' + @project_name;
END CATCH;
-- Fetch the next package
FETCH NEXT FROM PackageCursor INTO @project_name, @package_name;
END
CLOSE PackageCursor;
DEALLOCATE PackageCursor;
```
### Key Changes:
- **`@validation_id`**: This output parameter is required by the `validate_package` stored procedure to track the validation process. It's now included in the `EXEC` statement as an output parameter.
- **`@validation_id = @validation_id OUTPUT`**: This is essential for the call to work. This variable captures the validation ID, which you can use later to track the validation status or log the result.
After this script runs, you can query the validation results by using the validation IDs stored in the `@validation_id` variable, or use the previous query I shared to look up the validation results in the **SSISDB** tables.

the valdiation query that hits ssisdb.catalog.operations o references columns like folder_name and project_name which do not exist. are we missing join criteria ?
Author: ChatGPT
You're correct! The `catalog.operations` view does not directly contain `folder_name` or `project_name`. These columns are located in related tables such as `catalog.projects` and `catalog.folders`. We need to join these tables to obtain the `folder_name` and `project_name`.
Here???s the correct query with the necessary joins to retrieve validation results, including `folder_name` and `project_name`:
### Query for Validation Results with Proper Joins:
```sql
DECLARE @folder_name NVARCHAR(128) = 'WorkForce';
-- Step 1: Query the catalog.operations to get the validation results
SELECT
o.operation_id,
f.name AS folder_name,
p.name AS project_name,
o.start_time,
o.end_time,
o.status,
CASE
WHEN o.status = 1 THEN 'Succeeded'
WHEN o.status = 2 THEN 'Failed'
WHEN o.status = 3 THEN 'Canceled'
ELSE 'Unknown'
END AS validation_status
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects p ON o.object_id = p.project_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.folders f ON p.folder_id = f.folder_id
WHERE o.operation_type = 2 -- 2 represents a validation operation
AND f.name = @folder_name
ORDER BY o.start_time DESC;
-- Step 2 (Optional): For failed validations, get detailed error messages
SELECT
o.operation_id,
f.name AS folder_name,
p.name AS project_name,
om.message_time,
om.message
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects p ON o.object_id = p.project_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.folders f ON p.folder_id = f.folder_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.operation_messages om ON o.operation_id = om.operation_id
WHERE o.operation_type = 2 -- 2 represents a validation operation
AND o.status = 2 -- 2 represents failed operations
AND f.name = @folder_name
ORDER BY om.message_time DESC;
```
### Explanation:
1. **Joins**:
- **`catalog.projects`**: This table contains `project_id` (which corresponds to `object_id` in `catalog.operations`) and `project_name`.
- **`catalog.folders`**: This table contains `folder_id` and `folder_name`. It links to `projects` through `folder_id`.
2. **Columns**:
- `folder_name`: Comes from the `catalog.folders` table.
- `project_name`: Comes from the `catalog.projects` table.
- `operation_type`: Still set to `2` to filter for validation operations.
- `status`: Status of the operation (1: Succeeded, 2: Failed, 3: Canceled).
3. **Error messages**: The second query retrieves detailed error messages from the `catalog.operation_messages` table for failed validations.
### Output:
- **First Query**: Provides the validation results, including **folder_name**, **project_name**, and validation status (Succeeded, Failed, or Canceled).
- **Second Query**: Retrieves error messages for any failed validations, giving insight into why the validation failed.
This should now give you the correct results for SSIS validation queries in **SSISDB**.

there are small issies. the new code is correct, but it should feature WHERE o.operation_type = 200, an dwe need a case statement to make sense of the other status, like 4 and 7 which appear in my results
Author: ChatGPT
User's SSIS validation queries should use `WHERE o.operation_type = 200` to capture validation operations, and they encounter statuses 4 and 7 in the results that need to be handled in a case statement.

Model set context updated.
Author: ChatGPT
Thanks for the clarification! Here's the corrected query with `WHERE o.operation_type = 200` and an updated `CASE` statement to handle additional statuses such as 4 and 7:
### Updated Query for Validation Results:
```sql
DECLARE @folder_name NVARCHAR(128) = 'WorkForce';
-- Step 1: Query the catalog.operations to get the validation results
SELECT
o.operation_id,
f.name AS folder_name,
p.name AS project_name,
o.start_time,
o.end_time,
o.status,
CASE
WHEN o.status = 1 THEN 'Succeeded'
WHEN o.status = 2 THEN 'Failed'
WHEN o.status = 3 THEN 'Canceled'
WHEN o.status = 4 THEN 'In Progress'
WHEN o.status = 5 THEN 'Pending'
WHEN o.status = 6 THEN 'Ended Unexpectedly'
WHEN o.status = 7 THEN 'Ended with Warnings'
ELSE 'Unknown'
END AS validation_status
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects p ON o.object_id = p.project_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.folders f ON p.folder_id = f.folder_id
WHERE o.operation_type = 200 -- 200 represents a validation operation
AND f.name = @folder_name
ORDER BY o.start_time DESC;
-- Step 2 (Optional): For failed validations, get detailed error messages
SELECT
o.operation_id,
f.name AS folder_name,
p.name AS project_name,
om.message_time,
om.message
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects p ON o.object_id = p.project_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.folders f ON p.folder_id = f.folder_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.operation_messages om ON o.operation_id = om.operation_id
WHERE o.operation_type = 200 -- 200 represents a validation operation
AND o.status = 2 -- 2 represents failed operations
AND f.name = @folder_name
ORDER BY om.message_time DESC;
```
### Explanation of Changes:
1. **`operation_type = 200`**: Adjusted the filter to track validation operations using the correct operation type.
2. **Updated `CASE` statement**:
- `1`: Succeeded
- `2`: Failed
- `3`: Canceled
- `4`: In Progress
- `5`: Pending
- `6`: Ended Unexpectedly
- `7`: Ended with Warnings
This should now handle all statuses you're encountering, providing meaningful labels for the various outcomes of the validation process.
Author: user
since we kicked off validaitons on a per package basis, i think the validaitons need to also include the package name
Author: ChatGPT
You're right! To properly track validation results for individual packages, we need to include the **package name** in the query. Here's the updated version that adds the **package_name** to both queries:
### Updated Query for Validation Results with Package Name:
```sql
DECLARE @folder_name NVARCHAR(128) = 'WorkForce';
-- Step 1: Query the catalog.operations to get the validation results including package name
SELECT
o.operation_id,
f.name AS folder_name,
p.name AS project_name,
pk.name AS package_name, -- Add package name
o.start_time,
o.end_time,
o.status,
CASE
WHEN o.status = 1 THEN 'Succeeded'
WHEN o.status = 2 THEN 'Failed'
WHEN o.status = 3 THEN 'Canceled'
WHEN o.status = 4 THEN 'In Progress'
WHEN o.status = 5 THEN 'Pending'
WHEN o.status = 6 THEN 'Ended Unexpectedly'
WHEN o.status = 7 THEN 'Ended with Warnings'
ELSE 'Unknown'
END AS validation_status
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects p ON o.object_id = p.project_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.folders f ON p.folder_id = f.folder_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.packages pk ON o.object_id = pk.project_id AND o.object_type = 30 -- Add package join
WHERE o.operation_type = 200 -- 200 represents a validation operation
AND f.name = @folder_name
ORDER BY o.start_time DESC;
-- Step 2 (Optional): For failed validations, get detailed error messages, including package name
SELECT
o.operation_id,
f.name AS folder_name,
p.name AS project_name,
pk.name AS package_name, -- Add package name
om.message_time,
om.message
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects p ON o.object_id = p.project_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.folders f ON p.folder_id = f.folder_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.packages pk ON o.object_id = pk.project_id AND o.object_type = 30 -- Add package join
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.operation_messages om ON o.operation_id = om.operation_id
WHERE o.operation_type = 200 -- 200 represents a validation operation
AND o.status = 2 -- 2 represents failed operations
AND f.name = @folder_name
ORDER BY om.message_time DESC;
```
### Explanation of Changes:
1. **`package_name`**: Added the `ssisdb.catalog.packages` table, joining with `object_id` and filtering by `object_type = 30` (which represents packages) to fetch the correct package name.
2. **Updated the SELECT clause**: Now the result includes the `package_name` in both the main validation query and the error message query.
This should now give you the validation results on a per-package basis, including package names alongside folders, projects, and the validation statuses.
Author: user
that works well, except it should feat re the value 20, not 30 for thejoin portion that is "AND o.object_type = 20"
Author: ChatGPT
User's SSIS validation queries should use `AND o.object_type = 20` for joining on packages.

Author: ChatGPT
Thanks for the clarification! Here's the updated query with `AND o.object_type = 20`:
### Final Query for Validation Results with Correct `object_type`:
```sql
DECLARE @folder_name NVARCHAR(128) = 'WorkForce';
-- Step 1: Query the catalog.operations to get the validation results including package name
SELECT
o.operation_id,
f.name AS folder_name,
p.name AS project_name,
pk.name AS package_name, -- Add package name
o.start_time,
o.end_time,
o.status,
CASE
WHEN o.status = 1 THEN 'Succeeded'
WHEN o.status = 2 THEN 'Failed'
WHEN o.status = 3 THEN 'Canceled'
WHEN o.status = 4 THEN 'In Progress'
WHEN o.status = 5 THEN 'Pending'
WHEN o.status = 6 THEN 'Ended Unexpectedly'
WHEN o.status = 7 THEN 'Ended with Warnings'
ELSE 'Unknown'
END AS validation_status
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects p ON o.object_id = p.project_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.folders f ON p.folder_id = f.folder_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.packages pk ON o.object_id = pk.project_id AND o.object_type = 20 -- Use object_type = 20
WHERE o.operation_type = 200 -- 200 represents a validation operation
AND f.name = @folder_name
ORDER BY o.start_time DESC;
-- Step 2 (Optional): For failed validations, get detailed error messages, including package name
SELECT
o.operation_id,
f.name AS folder_name,
p.name AS project_name,
pk.name AS package_name, -- Add package name
om.message_time,
om.message
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects p ON o.object_id = p.project_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.folders f ON p.folder_id = f.folder_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.packages pk ON o.object_id = pk.project_id AND o.object_type = 20 -- Use object_type = 20
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.operation_messages om ON o.operation_id = om.operation_id
WHERE o.operation_type = 200 -- 200 represents a validation operation
AND o.status = 2 -- 2 represents failed operations
AND f.name = @folder_name
ORDER BY om.message_time DESC;
```
This should now correctly reflect the package-level validation results with `object_type = 20`. Let me know if this works for your scenario!
Author: user
it seems like the om.message column we are getting is not correctly related ot the package; i get a valdiation message that refers to otehr packages, it seems like a cross join, and missing additional join criteria
Author: ChatGPT
It seems like the relationship between validation operations and their corresponding messages needs tighter joins. The `om.message` could be linked to other unrelated operations if not joined correctly, so let's refine the query.
The correct way to avoid cross-joining unrelated operation messages is to ensure that the `operation_id` (which is unique per operation) is used appropriately.
Here's the corrected query with a more specific join to avoid messages from other packages:
### Corrected Query to Avoid Cross Joins in Operation Messages
```sql
DECLARE @folder_name NVARCHAR(128) = 'WorkForce';
-- Step 1: Query the catalog.operations to get the validation results including package name
SELECT
o.operation_id,
f.name AS folder_name,
p.name AS project_name,
pk.name AS package_name, -- Add package name
o.start_time,
o.end_time,
o.status,
CASE
WHEN o.status = 1 THEN 'Succeeded'
WHEN o.status = 2 THEN 'Failed'
WHEN o.status = 3 THEN 'Canceled'
WHEN o.status = 4 THEN 'In Progress'
WHEN o.status = 5 THEN 'Pending'
WHEN o.status = 6 THEN 'Ended Unexpectedly'
WHEN o.status = 7 THEN 'Ended with Warnings'
ELSE 'Unknown'
END AS validation_status
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects p ON o.object_id = p.project_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.folders f ON p.folder_id = f.folder_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.packages pk ON o.object_id = pk.project_id AND o.object_type = 20 -- Use object_type = 20
WHERE o.operation_type = 200 -- 200 represents a validation operation
AND f.name = @folder_name
ORDER BY o.start_time DESC;
-- Step 2: Query for error messages associated with failed validations, ensuring correct join with operation ID
SELECT
o.operation_id,
f.name AS folder_name,
p.name AS project_name,
pk.name AS package_name, -- Add package name
om.message_time,
om.message
FROM ssisdb.catalog.operations o
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.projects p ON o.object_id = p.project_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.folders f ON p.folder_id = f.folder_id
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.packages pk ON o.object_id = pk.project_id AND o.object_type = 20 -- Use object_type = 20
JOIN ssisdb.catalog.operation_messages om ON o.operation_id = om.operation_id -- Correctly join messages with operations
WHERE o.operation_type = 200 -- 200 represents a validation operation
AND o.status = 2 -- 2 represents failed operations
AND f.name = @folder_name
AND pk.name = om.context -- Ensure package name matches the message context (if available)
ORDER BY om.message_time DESC;
```
### Key Changes:
1. **Join by `o.operation_id = om.operation_id`**: Ensures the messages are tied to the correct operation.
2. **Check package context in messages**: Added an additional check `AND pk.name = om.context`, if the message's context includes the package name. If this context is not available, you may need to skip this part and rely on the correct `operation_id` join.
3. **Removed ambiguity in joins**: Focused the join more tightly on the relationships between operations and messages.
This should prevent unrelated messages from appearing in the results and link the correct validation error messages to their respective packages. Let me know how this works for you!

can i script out a sql server credential featuring a shared access signiture, or must i create it via script to deploy to another server?
Author: ChatGPT
You can create a SQL Server credential with a Shared Access Signature (SAS) either by scripting it out or by creating it directly via script to deploy to another server. However, when scripting out the credential, SQL Server does **not expose** the SAS token value in plain text for security reasons. Instead, you need to manually include the SAS token in your script to recreate the credential on the target server.
Here???s an approach to deploy the credential via script:
### Script for Creating SQL Server Credential with SAS
When creating the credential, use the `CREATE CREDENTIAL` statement, specifying the identity (which would be the storage account name for Azure) and the secret (which is the SAS token).
```sql
-- Script to create a SQL Server Credential with SAS
CREATE CREDENTIAL &#91;<CredentialName>]
WITH IDENTITY = '<StorageAccountName>', -- This is the storage account name
SECRET = '<SASToken>'; -- This is the full SAS token (without the '?')
```
### Example:
```sql
CREATE CREDENTIAL &#91;MyAzureBlobCredential]
WITH IDENTITY = 'myStorageAccountName', -- Replace with your Azure Storage account name
SECRET = 'sp=racwdl&st=2024-01-01T00:00:00Z&se=2024-01-02T00:00:00Z&sv=2020-08-04&sr=c&sig=<signature>'; -- Replace with your SAS token
```
### Steps to Deploy:
1. **Extract the necessary details**:
- **Storage Account Name**: This is the `IDENTITY` part.
- **SAS Token**: This is the `SECRET` part.
2. **Manually write the script**: Since SQL Server doesn't expose the SAS token, you must write or manually include the SAS token in the script when moving between servers.
3. **Run the script on the target server**: Execute the script on the target server to recreate the credential.
### Note:
- The **`SECRET`** part must include only the SAS token itself, **excluding the leading `?`** character. This is because the token should contain all the necessary parameters after `?`.
- Ensure the **SAS token** is valid and not expired before deploying it to the target server.
### Why Manual Scripting is Necessary:
When scripting out an existing credential from SQL Server (e.g., via SQL Server Management Studio or other means), you will get the credential name and identity but **not the secret (SAS token)** due to security restrictions. Therefore, it's best to handle this in your deployment scripts by securely providing the SAS token where necessary.
Let me know if you need further clarification!
