Bulk Insert: One Row not importing in...

Ok so I got this working:

BULK INSERT

dbo.tbCheckPointTest

FROM 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\upload\maxie_task_aging.csv'

WITH

(DATAFILETYPE = 'char', FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',

FIRSTROW = 2, ROWS_PER_BATCH = 6, ROWTERMINATOR = '\n')

My data file looks like this:

REPORT_EXECUTED_ON:20070403_170001 Research 306 263 2470 State 1031 7 0 Program 13 1 0 Program Tech 85 69 139

Total of 6 rows, so I indicate to start on Row 2, yet only the last three lines are getting into my table.

I have changed and manipulated the query varies counts, but still just the last three lines get imported.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Hi,

From the looks of your data file, it is difficult to tell how many blank lines are associated with your data file.

It appears that "Research" may begin on line 4, in which case you would have only three rows of data: "Research", "State", and "Program".

I am confused by the fact that you get the last three rows: "State", "Program", and "Program Tech".

Is it possible that some rows are terminated by "0A0D" and others only by "0A" or "0D", and "\n" is being interpreted as strictly "0A0D" (hexadecimal)?

I also am confused by your use of "FIELDTERMINATOR = ',' ", since I don't see any commas in the data you have displayed.

Sorry. I had the .csv open with excel when I copied and pasted it:

REPORT_EXECUTED_ON:20070404_110001

Research Specialist - Research , 340, 91, 2635
State Worker (Interim) , 918, 3, 0
Program Specialist - Quality Assurance Specialist , 16, 1, 0
Program Technician - Data Entry Hold , 82, 28, 160

I am going to see if anything you suggested will help.

|||

The problem seems to be that the BULK INSERT function seems to expect all the rows in the file to have the correct number of fields for the target table (even those being skipped). So it is ignoring the newlines until it has found enough commas (and then counts any other commas until it finds the row terminator as part of that field).

Try loading the file:

REPORT_EXECUTED_ON:20070404_110001,,,
,,,
Research Specialist - Research , 340, 91, 2635
State Worker (Interim) , 918, 3, 0
Program Specialist - Quality Assurance Specialist , 16, 1, 0
Program Technician - Data Entry Hold , 82, 28, 160

Though you will need a FIRSTROW = 3

If you put the last field into a varchar rather than an int then if you add commas to the end (e.g. 2635,,,,) then you will find that these commas end up in that field (if not then it will complain about unexpected characters when it tries to convert it to an int or whatever).

So any rows to be skipped should have the correct number of field separators in them (3) or they will not be included in the skip count.

Thank you, that solved the issue. Now I have to get w/the programmer who delivers the file to me.

Nice catch, Dhericean!

Bulk Insert.

Is there any way I can use the following command like that ?
BULK INSERT Northwind.dbo.[Order Details]
FROM (select CSVTextFile from tblCSV)
WITH
(
FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
)
Thanks in advance
The syntax of BULK INSERT is

quote:

---

BULK INSERT [ [ 'database_name'.] [ 'owner' ].] { 'table_name' FROM
'data_file' }...
'data_file'
Is the full path of the data file that contains data to copy into the
specified table or view. BULK INSERT can copy data from a disk (including
network, floppy disk, hard disk, and so on).
data_file must specify a valid path from the server on which SQL Server is
running. If data_file is a remote file, specify the Universal Naming
Convention (UNC) name.

You need to use a format file - see "Using Format Files" and "Using a Data
File with Fewer Fields" in Books Online. DTS is another option, and probably
quicker if this is a one-off task.

This is the format file (save without identation):

8.0
1
1 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\r\n" 1 X ""

And this is the SQL command:

BULK INSERT myTable FROM 'E:\temp\slask.bcp'
WITH (FORMATFILE = 'E:\temp\slask.fmt')
go

As I said, leave out the indentation. They were only in my post to
separate the data from my text. You cannot have leading spaces on
the lines in your format file.

Since this a completely different question not related to BULK INSERT,
it would be a good idea to start a new thread. That makes it more likely
that people with experience of replication (I am not one of them) might see
the thread and can help you.

You could also try the newsgroup microsoft.public.sqlserver.replication.

Yes, this is possible. The format file describes in input file, and
is indeed a mapping to the table. Each line describes a field in the
file, and possibly also maps it to a table column. Here is a format file
with for a file with three fields:

8.0
3
1 SQLCHAR 1 0 "" 7 col1 Hungarian_CS_AI
2 SQLCHAR 0 10 "" 2 col2 Hungarian CS_AI
3 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\r\n" 5 col5 ""

The first number is the field number, and they should come in consecutive
order. Note that the 3 on the second line, describes the number of fields
in the field.

The next is the data type *in the file*. As long as you work with text
files this is always SQLCHAR (or SQLNCHAR for Unicode files), no matter
the data type of the target column in the database. But it is possible
to bulk load binary files, for which you would use SQLINT and such.

The next three fields describes the field is in the file. And while
they can be combined, you normally use them one by one. (Honestly, I
don't exactly what happens if you combine them.)

The first of these columns is a "prefix length" and is always 1, 2 or 4.
This prefix gives the actual length the of the field, and the prefix
is itself a binary value of 1, 2 or 4 bytes. From this follows that
prefix lengths are rarely used with data files in text format.

The sceond of these columns is a fixed length in bytes.

The last column is a character sequence that terminates the field. Note
that in this example the delimiter is newline, \r\n, and many files do
indeed have one data record per line in the file. However, BCP makes
no such assumptions, and will just iterate over the field definitions,
and if a newline appears in what BCP thinks is in the middle of a text
field, then that newline is handled as data. This permits you to import
data with newlines, but it also means that when BCP goes out of sync,
it gets out of sync badly.

Next number is the mapping you are looking for. This is the column
number in the database. In the example the file loads columns 2, 5
and 7 in the database. You can also specify 0 to indicate that that
field in the table should not be loaded at all. This can be used to
handle formats like:

"quoted data","more quoted data",989

Next column in the format file is the column name, but the value of
this field is ignored, so you can put "" if you like.

The last column is the collation of the field in the text file, in
case you would need some conversion. You can set "" for non-character
columns, or set "" all the way to get some default.

All of what I have said here is Books Online, under
Administering SQL Server
Importing and Exporting Data
Using bcp and BULK INSERT
Using Format files

But my presentation above maybe somewhat clearer than the sections in
Books Online.

Not really sure what you mean here. Assuming that the file you import is
a text file, the data type will be different as soon as the target column
is not a character data type.

I have not dug deeply into this, but I would assume that the same
conversions to be available, that are available in SQL statements.

Maybe if you have a specific example, I can give some suggestions.

I'm sorry, but you have me lost completely. First you talk about
UPDATE, and then you go on with BULK INSERT. You cannot update tables
with BULK INSERT, so I fail to see the connection.

If you have problem with BULK INSERT, please post:

o CREATE TABLE statement for your table.
o Sample data file.
o Any format file you are using.

Normally, when I hear a conversion I think in terms of implicit conversion
as when the string literal '20000520 12:21:31' can be interpreted as a
datetime value, or when you use explicit conversion with cast() or
convert().

The only form of conversion you can do with bulk load is implicit
conversion, since you cannot apply functions to the data you load. From
this follows that you neither can do user-implemented "conversion"
as in your example with bulk-load directly.

If you need to do transformation like storing TRUE/FALSE in an input
file as bit values, there are two choices: 1) use an intermediate
table into which you load the data, and the use INSERT-SELECT to move
the data to the target table. 2) Use DTS to write a transformation task.

As for 1), this is often needed anyway, because the file data may be
imperfect and need scrubbing of duplicates etc. As for 2) I assume that
this is what you can use DTS for, but never having used DTS myself, I
can give any details. It's possible that running the Import/Export
wizard can give you headstart in this area.

BULK Insert Permissions question

To run a BULK INSERT, Sql BOL says I need to have

"INSERT and ADMINISTER BULK OPERATIONS permissions..."

If I am dbo of a database is that sufficient (rights wise) to bulk insert into that database?

TIA,

Hey Bill,

If you run this operation under that account then you should have no problems.

Keep us posted with how you are getting on.

This record is in character format and has no length prefixes. The format
file below describes the source file according this sample data. I also
increased the maximum field lengths to accommodate the target SQL data types
in case other records have longer values.

Bulk Insert Fails !

Hello

I am trying to execute a BULK INSERT ... this is my code
BULK INSERT myTableSQL.dbo.[Daily_ss] FROM 'c:\daily_ss.txt'
WITH (
DATAFILETYPE='native',
FIELDTERMINATOR = 'char(9)',
ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
)

But I get an Error

Server: Msg 4866, Level 17, State 66, Line 1
Bulk Insert fails. Column is too long in the data file for row 1,
column 1. Make sure the field terminator and row terminator are
specified correctly.
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'STREAM' reported an error. The provider did not give
any information about the error.
The statement has been terminated.

1. The FIELDTERMINATOR in my file is the tab ...is it correct that i
declare it as char(9)?

2. the date format in the text file are dd/mm/yyyy will i have a
problem with this? Because SQL uses mm/dd/yyyy

3. I used this with DATAFILETYPE='char' and i get the same error

Please HELP :)
ThanksHi savvaschr,

I guess you are right at you 1st doubt as you have specified 'char(9)' and
not actual tab. So I guess you need to paste actual tab charecter inthe
quotes, also make sure that you have dropped indexes. I am a bit doubtful
about the 2nd # as it shouldn't be a problem.

Please let us know the solution.

Best regards,
Tushar.|||Will the data fit in the column?
Is your column varchar(50) and the data is greater than 50 characters?

http://sqlservercode.blogspot.com/|||I copy the 'tab' character from the file and i put it as FIELDSEPARETOR
but it still dont work and i 've tested it with another file and table
with no date fields.

So maybe is the tab character OR is the indexes of the table . Shall i
remove the indexes?
And if i remove them in order for the BULK INSERT to work and I have
to add them again whats the purpose of BULK INSERTing them instead of
adding row by row ?|||<savvaschr@.nodalsoft.com.cy> wrote:

I believe the command you want is...

BULK INSERT myTableSQL.dbo.[Daily_ss] FROM 'c:\daily_ss.txt'
WITH (
DATAFILETYPE='char',
FIELDTERMINATOR = '\t',
ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
)

Craig|||i Use the above and i got an error

might be?

\n as terminator has always been problematic, because \n in the format
specification is interpreted as \r\n. I can't recall that I have ever
been able to get it to work.

A work around is to open the file from Windows with an editor, and make
sure that when you save again that lines are terminated with \r\n.

As Erland already pointed out, the most likely culprit is the fact that your
file is from a Unix server. This is definitely the problem if the records
in your file have 22 fields. As far as I can tell, you have 2 options:

1. Do as Erland suggested and "fix" the file before you import it... either
with a text editior or little utility program you write (please see below).

2. See if the code running on the Unix host can be changed to use \r\n
instead of \n.

Craig|||Ok Guys
I forced unix to use chr(13) at the ena of line and now its ok
but in date fields i am geting an error saying:

code page 737 doesnt exist

I have tried both dd/mm/yyyy and mm/dd/yyyy formats and i still take
the same error|||(savvaschr@.nodalsoft.com.cy) writes:

For date formats, you are best of using YYYY-MM-DD (or YYYYMMDD). However
that message, which I have never seen, is something different, and not
related to date format.

Going back to your first post, I see that you have specified
DATAFILETYPE='native'. Native here means that the data is the binary
form of the SQL Server data types. So a datetime value, should be an
8-bit binary value. I don't think your Unix system produces that.

Try DATAFILETYPE='character' instead.

It's terrible to admit this, but I've been in a shop that only does American
English for years, so my experience with code pages is limited. However, I
would suggest using the format yyyymmdd. I believe this is guaranteed to be
interpreted correctly by SQL Server regardless of locale or codepage.

Good luck,

Craig|||OK

I forced put ^m as line terminator at unix files and i put the date
field format as
yyyy-mm-dd and its working ok

Thanks a lot to everybody

Bulk insert Error

i am firing the following from QA
bulk insert pubs.dbo.Orders from '\\<ServerName>\test\Orders.txt'
with (DATAFILETYPE = 'native')
This <ServerName> is not the servername of the SQL Box, but the remote box
where i have created the shared folder test with approrite permissions.
But i keep getting the following error
Could not bulk insert because file '\\<ServerName>\test\Orders.txt' could
not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).
is it supported with BULK INSERT.
MCAD
Vineet BattaYe, its possible. Be sure to specify UNC path names when the file is on a
remote server. I have tried it and it works for me when it has correct
permissions. GoodLuck

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14)
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]
error bulk load. The data file contains a column too long for the row
1, column 13. Check the rowterminator and the field terminator.
(sorry, that is a translation from error message in other languages)
I have SQL Server 2005 St. edition, and I don't have direct access to
the db server.
Can you help me?
Thank's!

I would guess that the data file is missing row terminators on some columns.
You may have to visually inspect and/or correct the data file.

BULK INSERT - error column too long

Hi,
I need to load a data file with bulk load.
I have these table:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[test_db_import](
[campo_0] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_1] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_2] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_3] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_4] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_5] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_6] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_7] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_8] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_9] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_10] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_11] [ntext] COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[campo_12] [nvarchar](255) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL,
[tappo] [nvarchar](1) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NULL
) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]
the input file (a file .txt) is like that:
"value1";"value2";"value3";"value4";"value5";"value6";"value7";"value8";"value9";"value10";"value11";"value12";"value13"
13 value, with text qualifier double quote, in one row
and the format file:
9.0

1 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\"" 1 campo_0 "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS"

13 SQLCHAR 0 0 \"" 13 campo_12 "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS"
I have these error:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14)
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]
error bulk load. The data file contains a column too long for the row
1, column 13. Check the rowterminator and the field terminator.
(sorry, that is a translation from error message in other languages)
I have SQL Server 2005 St. edition, and I don't have direct access to
the db server.
Can you help me?
Thank's!
FrancI would guess that the data file is missing row terminators on some columns.
You may have to visually inspect and/or correct the data file.
