The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

OLE DB Source not working with Distributed Transaction

Asked by Ken_Lyon in SSIS, MS SQL Server, SQL Server 2005

Tags: Microsoft, Visual Studio, 2005, SSIS, DTC, Distributed Transaction

I've got an SSIS package that I've been trying to adapt to use distributed transactions. Whenever I set the TransactionOption to "Required" in the outermost container, everything stopped working. The only way I could get any SQL steps to work would be to change the TransactionOption to "NotSupported", which kind of defeats the purpose. :)

The error I get from my OLE DB Source is:

SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER.  The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "MyConnection" failed with error code 0xC001A004.  There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the AcquireConnection method call failed.

The Connection Manager is using OLE DB and I have RetainSameConnection set to True.

There is a linked server involved and I do have DTC set up on both machines. I've tested the connection between them using DTCPing and all tests were successful.

Could anyone suggest things I could try? I suspect it's something to do with the settings of DTC.

See attached file for current DTC settings.
