I just migrated from SSDT 2015 to SSDT 2019 and tried to open a project created in SSDT 2015. One of the packages has a data flow task with a script component in it. The script component fails to build with the error:
Could not find part of the path
'C:\Users\xxxxxx\AppData\Local\Temp\2\Vsta\c2e811fdc5974e2ca3f7cb5426c82033_out'
I tried to delete the .vs folder in my project but that didn't work. The script still fails to rebuild. The script has a lot of classes in it so I'd rather not start from scratch and copy everything into it. Any idea what could be wrong?
Appears this issue may be caused by an incompatibility between Visual Studio 16.9 and SQL Server Integration Services Projects. The issue is described here: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SSIS.SqlServerIntegrationServicesProjects
Recommendation is to regress back to Visual Studio 16.8 or earlier.
The new version of data tools fixed it for me without rolling back to 16.8. This was a difficult issue to resolve. Nowhere in the MS documentation do they mention the tools update fixes that specific error. Thanks for the link!
I recently used the repair function in my Visual Studio Installer that I thought could fix the error message: Microsoft data transformation services designer package did not load correctly. However it turns out there is a new error message when I wanted to load my previous project: The "Package" package did not load correctly.
If I continue the loading, I will receive some other warning message in the solution Explorer saying my project is "incompatible" and "the application is not installed":
I initially also tried to follow some online solution and tried to repair Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools in control panel. It doesn't allow me to repair and says Setup Failed almost immediately after I click on the repair button.
Initially I was trying to add an WCF extenion in Visual Studio but seemed failed and threw the first error message to me. Then when I try to repair, the first error message is gone and I was given the second error message. Now I stuck in there.
I have also checked if SSDT is included in the installer and New project types:
It seems the SSDT is selected in the Visual Studio Installer and all my current project types are listed in the screenshot as well (previously I was able to see Integration services as well but now after the repair I can't).
I'm using Visual Studio Enterprise 2017 on a test server that a few people have access to (I've also tried to restart the Visual Studio and the server but it didn't help).
Hope I can get some suggestions here, really appreciated.
I know this do the trick by deploying pkg through Visual Studio as I was also facing the same issue.
But recently my DBA, told me that he is not fine with installing visual studio on PROD in order to deploy packages. Is there any workaround for this as I can't install visual studio on PROD server still want to get rid of this error.
I tried degrading pgk version to 2015/2016 in TargetServerVersion but it didn't work, still facing the same issue.
Do we have to have visual studio if our SSIS pkg contain script task ?
I faced that issue before and the fix was registering the dll in the server. You don't need to install VS.
I'm developing an OPC Client, everything was good until i get an HRESULT-FAULT Error, so i try this solution; error-hresult-e-fail-has-been-returned-from-a-call-to-a-com-component
I execute this command :
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe /setup
Then when trying to lunch VisualStudio V12 i get this error:
Any help will be appreciated.
For the persons who have the same problem:
I solve this problem by Uninstall then install Visual Studio 2012.
I've got a database project as part of my solution in Visual Studio 2013. Been working perfectly for the last 3 weeks and now suddenly today it won't build and so I cannot publish any changes. I'm getting an MSBuild error:
"C:\Program Files
(x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v12.0\SSDT\Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.SqlTasks.targets(513,5):
Error: MSB4018: The "SqlBuildTask" task failed unexpectedly.
System.MethodAccessException: Attempt by method 'Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Sql.Build.SqlTaskHost.OnCreateCustomSchemaData(System.String,
System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2)'
to access method
'Microsoft.Data.Tools.Components.Diagnostics.SqlTracer.ShouldTrace(System.Diagnostics.TraceEventType)'
failed."
Anyone got any ideas? All I did this morning was pull down the latest changes from source control. I can't see how that would mess up the actual MSBuild process, and the guy who checked in last doesn't have any issues at all.
You need to install the last version of SQL Server Data Tools:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/data/hh297027
Make sure to restart VS and then build the solution again. This solves the problem!
In Visual Studio 2013 -> Tools -> Extensions and Updates... -> Updates -> Product Updates -> Microsoft SQL Server Update for database to 12.0.50318.0
I was upgrading from 12.0.41012.0 and this resolved my issue. This relates to the answer to install the latest SQL Server Data Tools.
I am using Visual Studio Community 2013.
I had same error:
You can fix it by updating the SQL Server Tools:
Tools --> Extensions and Updates
Then under Product Updates you will see an option to update SQL Server Update.
Click on Update, after it has installed restart Visual Studio.
Try:
Install the latest DacFx from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=43370
Reinstall the latest SSDT from http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=393521
Source: VS2013 SqlBuildTask 04018 Error
I searched "Visual Studio 2013 Update 2" in MSDN subscriber downloads and it was there
Also I filed a bug with MS
VS2013 SqlBuildTask 04018 Error Please up vote it if you are getting the same problem
I had the same issue. I tried to repair Visual Studio 2013, update 4, SSDT, the DAC tools, etc., but it didn't work any better.
However I noticed the Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.SqlTasks.targets file present in C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v12.0\SSDT was dated from 2013 (In fact it corresponded to the old SSDT). So what I did is just copy the new one (which I suprisingly found in C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\SSDT ...) over to this v12.0\SSDT folder, restarted Visual Studio 2013 and now it works. For information, that new SSDT targets file is dated from 2014/10/26 and its size is 75437 bytes.
It turns out the issue was with Visual Studio Update 3. I uninstalled and reinstalled VS 2013 to Update 2 only and reinstalled Data Tools and it works perfectly now.
I already had the newest Version of SQL Data Tools installed, but after installing VS2015 RC it stopped to work. After run a repair on SSDT it compiles again with success.
I had Visual Studio 2013 Update 5 installed and was having this issue. I followed these steps from above and that fixed the issue for me -->
In Visual Studio 2013 -> Tools -> Extensions and Updates... -> Updates -> Product Updates -> Microsoft SQL Server Update for database to 12.0.50730.0
I had the same issue and just restart the Visual Studio and it works for me.
I experienced the same issue with a slightly different stack trace:
Error MSB4018: The "SqlBuildTask" task failed unexpectedly.
System.IO.IOException: The file exists.
Turns out this is a issue with the Temp directory for the service account I was using, I think if you exceed X number of folders/files in that directory the publish will no longer work. Fixed this issue by following the instructions mentioned here (for my service account):
Go start-> run
Type %temp% and click ok
Make sure you are in the folder /Local/Temp
Delete everything in this folder
If it helps anybody, I installed VS2014 CTP 3, and I can build from it. Interestingly after a successfull build in vs2014, the next time you build in VS2013 it works. But subsequent builds in VS2013 dont work, until you rebuild in VS2014.
I was able to fix the issue by repairing Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools and re-starting Visual Studio 2013.
Control Panel > Right Click: "Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools" > Click: "Repair" > Re-Start Visual Studio
I had the same issue. Running disk check and then rebooting fixed it.
I got the same error and fix it by re-install Visual Studio 2015
I had this problem and fixed it like this:
install the latest DacFx from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=43370
Delete the Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.SqlTasks.targets file from C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v12.0\SSDT
repair SQL Server Data Tools 2013 , reset visual studio()
