Generate XML data

--XML data sample to be genereated

How to export data from database tables to an XML file using SSIS

I had a project where I had to generate a xml file with data from database tables using SSIS.

The components involved were

Data Flow Task
OLE DB Source - which had the SQL command at the stored proc that called the XML data
Flat File Destination  that used a Flat File Connection Manager.

The important thing to remember here was the  FFCM set up .
Here are the screen shots to show I set it up .



The DFT consisted of OLEDB Sour Editor calling a procedure that generated XML data.




Below is the Flat File Connection Manager used. The format was DELIMITED.

 
 
In the Columns section a new column COL_XML is added which is the ONLY column returned by the stored procedure that has the XML data.
 
 
 
 


The final important part was the below where we set up the data type which had to be Unicode text stream

Error: Tranaction log full due to replication

I had this error in one of the databases and I was trying different possible steps to fix it.

I tried to take a transactional log back up - no luck
I tried to change the recovery model to simple - no luck
The database does not have replication but it does have CDC enabled. So I tried to disable the CDC I got another error related to metadata
I tried to change the db owner to sa - no luck still error
Then the following helped me to get rid of the error that was saying replication

EXEC sp_repldone @xactid = NULL, @xact_sgno = NULL, @numtrans = 0, @time = 0, @reset = 1;

I tried to change the db owner to sa after running the above - success
I tried to disable the CDC - success
I expanded the log file - success

This is how I was able to resolve the issue.

MSDB too large

C drive was growing very fast and then saw that the msdb  data file and log file was huge.

I shrank the msdb log file first.
I ran the following query to see the top higly populated table

SELECT object_name(i.object_id) as objectName,
i.[name] as indexName,
sum(a.total_pages) as totalPages,
sum(a.used_pages) as usedPages,
sum(a.data_pages) as dataPages,
(sum(a.total_pages) * 8) / 1024 as totalSpaceMB,
(sum(a.used_pages) * 8) / 1024 as usedSpaceMB,
(sum(a.data_pages) * 8) / 1024 as dataSpaceMB
FROM sys.indexes i
INNER JOIN sys.partitions p
ON i.object_id = p.object_id
AND i.index_id = p.index_id
INNER JOIN sys.allocation_units a
ON p.partition_id = a.container_id
GROUP BY i.object_id, i.index_id, i.[name]
ORDER BY sum(a.total_pages) DESC, object_name(i.object_id)
GO

Once running the query on MSDB , I found the follwing large tables


I ran the follwing to clear the history

use msdb
GO
exec sp_maintplan_delete_log @oldest_time = '05/12/2017'


This expands the log file so make sure you shrink file


DBCC SHRINKFILE(MSDBLog, 50) --50MB

GO


Then the following maintenance plan was scheduled to run every week.

SSISDB Error: The current master key cannot be decrypted

I had to move the SSISDB database f rom server1 to Server2

On Server 1 I did the following
Backed up the master key
USE SSISDB


BACKUP MASTER KEY TO FILE = 'C:\MSSQL\Keys\SQLSVER1_key'
ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'oldpassword'


Backed up the SSISDB database .

Copied the key and the back up file to  server2

On server2 I did the following
Restored the SSISDB
Restored the master key as follows
USE SSISDB


RESTORE MASTER KEY FROM FILE = 'V:\MSSQL\Keys\SQLSVER1_key'


DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'oldpassword'


ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'newpassword'


But ran into an issue where it threw the error  -
The current master key cannot be decrypted. If this is a database master key, you should attempt to open it in the session before performing this operation. The FORCE option can be used to ignore this error and continue the operation but the data encrypted by the old master key will be lost.

I ran  the script again with the FORCE option

USE SSISDB


RESTORE MASTER KEY FROM FILE = 'V:\MSSQL\Keys\SQLSVER1_key'


DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'oldpassword'


ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'newpassword'

FORCE

That did not work, still got error

Solution: I had copied the keys to a folder where SQL SERVICE account did not have r/w permissions. Copied the key to the folder where the permission was already setup and rant the script with the FORCE option  and it worked!
