Using SQL script as data source in SSIS

Inside my SSIS package, which is based on a sql script, I'm encountering the error below,

" [ADO NET Source [1]] Error: The component "ADO NET Source" (1) was unable to process the data. ORA-01840: input value not long enough for date format "

The data source is numeric, and I'm converting it to date within the script, the map-to field datatype in the data-destination is "datetime", and here's my date conversion formula within my sql script;

TO_CHAR(to_DATE(MYDATE,'YYYYMMDD'),'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS')AS LastModDate

Please advise.

how do the MyDate values in your oracle database look like?

did you try doing the conversions using Derived column transformations?

The date in Oracle is "number" datatype, and the format is "20131010".

As for your second question, no, I'm not using Derived column but may be I should.

Yeah try using Derived column instead... with an expression like below

Change MyDate to your Column Name and Convert the values to unicode or Non- unicode depending on your destination data type

(DT_STR,4,1252)(SUBSTRING(MyDate,1,4)) + "-"
+ (DT_STR,4,1252)(SUBSTRING(MyDate,5,2)) + "-"
+ (DT_STR,4,1252)(SUBSTRING(MyDate,7,2))

Danny;

I tried your solution but to no avail, here's the error I'm getting;

I went with derived column, and used the coversion formula you posted;

(DT_STR,4,1252)(SUBSTRING(MY_Date,1,4)) + "-" + (DT_STR,4,1252)(SUBSTRING(MyDate,5,2)) + "-" + (DT_STR,4,1252)(SUBSTRING(My_Date,7,2))

and I started getting this error;

[OLE DB Source [426]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E1D.
