I was planning for a big event on on May but due to some reasons we are not able to proceed as per schedule. Initially we have planned to skip April month UG because of this event. Soon we will reschedule the big event so watch out UG space for more updates. In the mean time let us go on the regular track. May month UG is scheduled on 18th so expecting everyone . Go ahead and register
I wrote multiple articles on heterogeneous linked server which helped user to connect to Sybase , SQL Server & MySQL RDBMS platforms. However I missed creating Oracle linked server , many users responded to write an article on this so I decided to complete it. As you know when you create a heterogeneous linked server you need proper driver of the destination RDBMS. I have split this into two sections a.) Installing Oracle Driver and configuring tnsnames.ora file b.) Creating Oracle linked server in SQL Server

Hi Vidhysagar & Team,
I am happy to hear that the SQL Server User Group in Chennai is active and going strong. I came across your blog and wanted to attend one of your user group meetings.
I am basically a Chennai-ite and work as a Microsoft BI Consultant in Australia. I am an active member of PASS SQL Team in Australia and have also presented for PASS SQL Saturdays in Australia. I visit Chennai almost every year for holidays and I would love to attend one your sessions. I am happy to speak on any particular topic of interest and discuss case studies on some of the projects and the industry in Australia as well.
I recently presented on “Agile BI with SQL Server 2012″ for PASS. I am coming down to Chennai this August 2013 for a fortnight. Please feek free to get in touch.
Cheers,
Mohamed Kabiruddin

@aj — Both the scripts are same. In my example I’m passing the output value to a variable. In your example you aren’t passing it instead you make the task failure or success.

You are creating a lot of extra steps that are not required in the Script task. You fail to see the line right after your code that is
Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success;
The opposite of this is
Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Failure;
The code you should be using is
// Check if the file exists
if (File.Exists((string)(Dts.Variables["FilePath"].Value)))
{
Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success;
}
else
{
Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Failure;
}
If the file exists then the Script task result will be “Success”. If the file does not exist the Script task results will be fail.
Then all you do is set the Success direction flow (the green line) to go to your data flow task. If the result is Failure then the Failure direction flow (the red line) will go to your Update error task. Be sure to RIGHT-CLICK the direction flow and select “Failure” from the pop-up menu.
