SSIS Breakpoints Nothing to View in the Locals Window

  • I have a SSIS package with an execute SQL Task where I have a variable that should pass a MAX ID number through to a data flow.

    I want to see the variable value on debug. I have set up a breakpoint on the Execute SQL task but there is nothing shown in the Locals window on the debug.

    Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

  • Maybe you should set the breakpoint on the pre-execute of the data flow - it may be that your breakpoint is being hit before the variable's value has been set.

    If this is not the case, please attach a screen shot to illustrate exactly what you are seeing.

  • Phil thank you for your reply. But after a long search I finally realised what was occuring (which I must say is poorly documented) however I found the answer on a forum here.

    Instead of hitting the debug triangle I was right clicking and executing the task which will not show the debug windows.

    After fiddling around with packaging configurations all goiing according to plan now.

    Thanks again.:-)

  • Aha, I should have thought about that.

    Well done on figuring it out.
