Trapping Errors in DTS (7.0)

  • Hello fellow board browsers,

    I was wondering if there was a way to trap an error from a step(s) within a DTS package. I know you can setup a workflow failure task to handle errors, but what if I want to store the exact error message in a table within the database? SQL 2k has this ability, but I am using 7.0 sp 4. Ideally, I would like to setup a workflow failure task that would insert the exact error into a table. Is there a way to trap this?

    Thanks in advance,

    Rusty

  • With SQL 7, probably your best bet is to turn on the logging, which will log the messages to a file. Then on failure pickup the file that is created and parse it for the error.

    Hope this helps
