Problem Converting Data Using SSIS
I have several DTS packages that I am re-creating in SSIS. The packages run perfectly under SQL 2000, but after creating them in SSIS and verifying the that data type and column width are correct, I'm getting a data conversion failed error. The exact error reads:
1) [Flat File Source [1]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "Column 31" returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".
2) [Flat File Source [1]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_INDUCEDTRANSFORMFAIL
3) [Flat File Source [1]] Error: An error occurred while processing file "\\AS013278S\efile_ftp\CA5
I looked at all the properties and can't see what's causing this problem. The source file resides on a remote server, and is in a "file" format. Any help with this matter will be greatly appreciated.

So compare column 31 in the source to column 31 in the destination.... now look at the first row in the source file and examine element 31. Too big? Too small? Wrong delimiter? Null? .... or maybe one of the previous element values contains an internal delimiter that is causing an offeset in the element counting/parsing process.
ASKER
Column 31 data type from the source file is "DATABASE TIMESTAMP DT_DBTIME. It seem to have an issue with converting is SSIS. Here is the screen shot from the SSIS Execution Results:
SSIS-Error-1.docx
SSIS-Error-1.docx
And what data type you're using in SSIS?
ASKER
If I understand you correctly, I think I'm using the same data type in SSIS..."DATABASE TIMESTAMP DT_DBTIME. Where can I verify this?
ASKER
I just delete the TIMESTAMP column. However, now I'm getting the following error:
"The statement has been terminated.". An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'C1249703'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'CA571L'.".
Any suggestions?

Does SSIS supports data type "Numeric DT_Numeric"? I have a column in my source file that has this data type, but when the transformation begins, I get errors?
It is the conversion error i.e you are converting string to number but contain character in that.

It's a data type problem, check to make sure that each column has the right width and data type.
Try to bring one column a time to see where it fails for an example...
Also there's a way of redirecting error rows so you can examine them.
Also try to post a sample data and your flat file connection manager configurations (column configuration) screen shot.
