Error message
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "create database
'@DBasset'" failed with the following error:
"Failed to convert parameter value from a String to a Int32.".
Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query,
"ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly,
or connection not established correctly.
I have a package variable with the name of Level-1
I created an Execute SQL Task.
paramer mapping to @DBasset
net result should be
@DBasset = Level-1
I am trying to use the variable to change the database name.
I get the above error
The command is create database @DBasset
I originally attempted
DECLARE @AssetsDB as varchar(50)
@AssetsDB = @DBasset
--select db_id(@AssetsDB)
if db_id(@AssetsDB) is not null
drop database @AssetsDB;
else
create database @AssetsDB;
same error above

I made a Mistake above

The error is

[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "DECLARE @AssetsDB as varchar(50)

set @AssetsDB

= ..." failed with the following error: "Incorrect syntax near '@AssetsDB'.".

Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly,

parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.

DECLARE @AssetsDB as varchar(50)

set @AssetsDB = @Assets (the variable mapping)

--select db_id(@AssetsDB)

if db_id(@AssetsDB) is not null

drop database @AssetsDB;

else

create database @AssetsDB;

go

USE @AssetsDB;

GO

I don't think you can use a variable in a create DB statement.

If you want this to be dynamic, create a package variable with an expression which creates the statement you want to execute. Then use this package variable in your Execute SQL task

You can pass in the name of the DB from another package variable into this first variable.

You right! I forgot about that.

with the create statements

You gut's can delete this thread

it was the sql statement that was giving me the error.

I was looking at the wrong symptom.

When I ran

select db_id('@DB')

@DB is the variable

It worked fine. My Bad!
