SSIS Connection Object and Expressions

-
I have been writing a custom source adapter that uses a file connection within the connection manager. If I hard-code a specific file then the component works. However if I use a file connection that has an expression defined which updates the connection, for example when you have a for-each loop looping over a set files. The file connection doesn’t seem to re-evaluate expression each time you access the file connection via the code.

Azure SQL Server IaaS SSIS: A required privilege is not held by the client

-
Image
As mention in a previous post, we are using Azure SQL Server IaaS to help our transition to the cloud. The main reason for this is how some of our SSIS projects, which we inherited, were created. Some were using SSIS to manage the transactions, which uses MSDTC not supported in Azure. Use extra .Net libraries to read JSON and office files; external programs to do file operations like decompression. Migration timelines and priorities we didn't have time to refactor these projects. While ago we started to deploy our SSIS projects to our Azure SQL Server IaaS virtual machine, a Windows 2019 server with SQL Server 2019, to get the following error: SSIS Deployment Error 6522 "A required privilege is not held by the client". We able to resolve our problem by using the steps we found in the following blog posts: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: A required privilege is not held by the client while Deploying SSIS Project | Microsoft Docs .

SSIS File handle leak in For Each Loop

-
I am currently working on a project which needs to load over a 1000 xml files. The files are stored across 10 subfolders. I am using a foreach loop with a file enumerator, which is configured at the top of the folder structure and traverses the subfolders. This loops through the files, load the data and then moves the file to another folder. The package executes fine for a few 100 files but then hangs; this happens after a different number of processed files each time the package is run. While trying to resolve the problem we ran performance counters and noticed that the number open handles increased significantly just about the time Dtexec looked like it had hanged and DTexec also then started taking a lot of the cpu processing time. Update: I put this on the Microsoft forums and got a intresting answer back See Here ; There seems to be a memory leak with foreach loop which should be fixed in sp1.

Cannot update a database that has been registered as a data-tier application

-
Within SQL Server 2008 R2 a new feature was introduced, which was the data-tier application database. This feature allow developers / database administrators to package a database schema so that it could be deployed to any other database server and versioned. More about this feature can be found here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee240739(v=sql.105).aspx or http://dacguy.wordpress.com/ This feature has been included, as I have just found out, to previous versions: SQL Server 2005 via Services Pack 4 and 2008 via Services Pack 2. However SQL Server Management Studio, for SQL Server 2008, hasn't been updated with the tools for the new feature, you have to use the SQL Server 2008 R2 version. The reason for including the support to the previous version might have something to do with the release of the new SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT), the replacement to visual studio database professional, which uses DAC Packs and the framework to deploy a database. I have been using the
