Error importing 5 gig file into table

Question

Error importing 5 gig file into table

I am trying to do bulk insert into a table:

use SalesDWH

go


BULK INSERT dbo.npi
 FROM 'S:\tmp\npi.csv' WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR=',',ROWTERMINATOR='\n',lastrow=200,firstrow=2)

and getting this error:

Msg 4866, Level 16, State 8, Line 3
The bulk load failed. The column is too long in the data file for row 1, column 329. Verify that the field terminator and row terminator are specified correctly.
Msg 7301, Level 16, State 2, Line 3
Cannot obtain the required interface ("IID_IColumnsInfo") from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".

I also tried to use sql import and export wizard to import the file. It is comma-delimited and I am getting these errors:

I know that my fields are definitely big enough. Here's the create statement for the table:

I know for sure that there's no column bigger than 80 characters. I've also tried to change it to 500 characters and still getting the same error.

What am I doing wrong?

Why can I not import this file?

Here is a sample of one of the rows: "139236748349","1","","","","GRUrt3NERT","GEORGE","M","DR.","","M.D.","","","","","","","","","","7234900 FANNIN ST","SUITE 4423400","HOUSTON","TX","770523442900","US","713334351227000","713g25127082","792300 FANNIN ST","SUITE 423400","HOUSTON","TX","7705ef242900","US","7132225127000","713512ff27082","05/23/2005","01/22/2009","","","","M","","","","","","207VE0f2f102X","E02f945","TX","Y","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","82f4380J","04","TX","FT.BEND/MONT","B2f33159","02","TX","","8432335J","04","TX","BRAZORIA","8dd2047G","01","TX","BLUE CROSS & BLUE SHIELD","84sd2282J","04","TX","HARRIS COUNTY","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","N","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","",""

Just an update... I changed all the fields to nvarchar(max)

and still getting this horrible error:

I would validate the rows causing errors through an external script - say some quick powershell. For instance

$data = @(Import-Csv .\partialFile.csv )
$row = $data[0]

# how many columns do we have?
$row | gm -membertype NoteProperty | Measure-Object 

# columns larger than 80 chars
$row | gm -membertype NoteProperty | ? { ($row."$($_.Name)").Length -gt 80 }

I see you used the Import wizard (which builds an SSIS package).

You could try to load this file using SSIS:

Make a dataflow task
Make a flat file source, point to csv. set parameters as you have configured.
Set error output to redirect rows on truncation
Add a datareader destination on the error output, attach a data viewer on the path to the data reader.
Send the regular output to another data reader
Run the package

You should now see if there's any rows that SSIS (import) "thinks" is more than 80 characters for some reason. You should quickly be able to identify the error(s) then.

Also, in case there are 329 columns in the csv file, check your line terminator?

Based on your table DDL, it is likely that you are hitting the max row size of 8060 in SQL. Check out the max specs here.

I would, instead, try to decrease the size of the fields where possible.

Make this table the output of your dataflow in SSIS.

Good Luck! This should work as I update my own SQL-Server (2008) destination tables based on the import of the NPPES .CSV every month.

You may already have solved this differently, but the way it just worked me was:

Make a dataflow task
Make a flat file source, and point it to the CSV file.
Close the DTS package, and open the source file in the editor. It is essentially an XML file that describes the inner-workings of your package.
Search and replace DTS:MaximumWidth="50" with DTS:MaximumWidth="500".
Save the file, and re-open the DTS package. Double click on the task, and after getting a little warning about metadata inconsistency, you should be fine.
Create an OLE DB destination, and drag an arrow from the source to the destination. Ask it to create a new database table, which will have all the fields as varchar(500). This should be wide enough to receive all your fields into the staging table.
Run your package, and see how it works.

Good luck!
