SQL Server批量插入转换错误MSG 4864 HRESULT 0x80004005

Question

This is my first question here (I have been lurking and learning a lot in the past few years).

I have a problem with Bulk Insert in SQL Server 2012, it returns errors.

Bulk Insert code:

--DROP TABLE dbname.logg20160203
BULK INSERT dbname.logg20160204 
FROM 'x:\xxxx\SYSTEMID\log20151005t.ms'
WITH 
(
       FIRSTROW = 1,
       ORDER (Id),
       CODEPAGE = 'RAW',
       --DATAFILETYPE = 'char',
       FIELDTERMINATOR = '|',
       --ROWTERMINATOR = '\n',
       --ROWTERMINATOR = '\r',
       --ROWTERMINATOR = '\n\r',
       --ROWTERMINATOR = '\r\n',
       ROWTERMINATOR = '0x0a',
       TABLOCK, --Performance
       ERRORFILE = 'x:\xxxx\SYSTEMID\err104.log',
       FORMATFILE = 'x:\xxxx\SYSTEMID\formatfile-n.fmt',
       KEEPNULLS
);

Errors returned:

Msg 4864, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Bulk load data conversion error (type mismatch or invalid character for the specified codepage) for row 2, column 1 (TStamp).

Here is the data specified in the message:

    2|yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss|||GTM|||cccccccc||||||

My format file (so that we can keep Swedish letters in the data)

Answer 1

Allowed formats for DATETIME :

• YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss[.mmm]
• YYYYMMDD[ hh:mm:ss[.mmm]]

The things between rectangular brackets are optional. The T in the first format is the character T . In the second version there's a space between DD and hh (if hh is present)

Also, your separators are missing from your format file. You need to provide valid field terminators in your format file if you specify it in the BULK INSERT statement. So you will need to specify | as field terminator in your format file. If your row terminator is \\r\\n then you need to specify that as your final field terminator in the format file.

See the official documentation on Create a Format File (SQL Server) on how to do that.
