You have a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package. The package contains a script task that has the following comment.

// Update DataLoadBeginDate variable to the beginning of yesterday

The script has the following code.

Dts.variables[''User::DataLoadBeginDate''].Value = DataTime.Today.AddDays(-1);

The script task is configured as shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)

When you attempt to execute the package, the package fails and returns the following error message: ''Error: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.''

You need to execute the package successfully.

Question #4

To facilitate the troubleshooting of SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) packages, a logging methodology is put in place.

The methodology has the following requirements:

* The deployment process must be simplified.

* All the logs must be centralized in SQL Server.

* Log data must be available via reports or T-SQL.

* Log archival must be automated.

You need to configure a logging methodology that meets the requirements while minimizing the amount of deployment and development effort.

What should you do?
