SSIS - Error handling

In this article we will learn how to handle the errors in SSIS package. In SSIS when package throws an error then these error details is stored in following variables ErrorCode, ErrorDescription and SourceName.


Below is the code to handle error in SSIS package.
When a SSIS task encounters an error these error details are stored in three system variables.
Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead("ErrorCode")
Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead("ErrorDescription")
Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead("SourceName")
ErrorCode variables returns error code which will be numeric.
ErrorDescription will give us a brief description of an error encountered by the SSIS task.
SourceName give us the task name from which error occured.
Private Sub GetErrorValues(ByRef errNumber As Integer, ByRef errDescription As String, ByRef errSource As String)
       
            Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead("ErrorCode")
            Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead("ErrorDescription")
            Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead("SourceName")
            Dts.VariableDispenser.GetVariables(vars)
            Try
                errNumber = CType(vars("ErrorCode").Value, Integer)
                errDescription = vars("ErrorDescription").Value.ToString()
                errSource = vars("SourceName").Value.ToString()
            Catch ex As Exception
                Throw ex
            Finally
                vars.Unlock()
            End Try
        Catch ex As SystemException
            Throw ex
        End Try
    End Sub

UML - Association, Aggregation, Composition, Generalization, Specialization, Realization and Dependency

Association Association is a simple relationship between two classes. For example A relationship between Professor Class and Student class is known as Association. Both Classes can exist without each other, so Professor and Student are two independent classes. In this kind of relationships there will not be any owner class. Both classes have their own life cycle. UML Notation:     Aggregation Aggregation is a special type of Association. It is known as “Has-A” relationship. For example A Department class can contain Professor Class. Here Department class is owner class. Here in this relationship even after deleting Department class, Professor Class can exits. UML Notation: Composition Composition is a special type of Aggregation. It is known as “Is-A” relationship. For example A University Class has many Department class. Here University and Department objects are dependent on each other. If we delete Univ...

SSIS package - set oledb connections at runtime

SSIS oledb connection manager does't allow user to connect to different oledb servers. If we store oledb connection sting in Config file then it will accepts server name, InitialCatalog and username. But it wont accept password. The is because oledb connection manager has not exposed the oledb password property. To over come this problem we have to override the OLEDB connection manager itself. So that it accepts connections to different oledb servers. Public Sub Main() Dim vars As Variables Dim oledbConnectionManager As ConnectionManager oledbConnectionManager = Dts.Connections("<oledb connection name>") ' ADDED TO MAKE oledb CONNECTION STRING DYNAMIC Dim oServerName As String Dim oUserName As String Dim oInitialCatalog As String Dim oPassword As String Dts.VariableDispenser.LockOneForWrite("oServerName", vars) oServerName = vars("oServerName").Value.ToString().Trim() vars.Unlock() Dts.VariableDispenser.LockOneForWrite("oInitia...
