Best Method For Running/Executing Multiple DTSX Packages?
May 13, 2008
Hello all -
Based on advice from this board, I am setting up our newly-converted DTSX packages (sql server 2000 (DTS) to 2005 (SSIS) package conversion) to utilize package configurations to make it easier to run them in multiple environments (dev, testing, production, etc...). This seems to be working just fine, but I now have another question.
We have approximately 12 DTSX packages which need to be executed in a specific sequential order. I was wondering what the best / most widely accepted method is to allow for running them as an automated process. If you double click on each DTSX file individually, the "Execute Package Utility" pops up, and you can run the package. I'd like to know the best way for us to be able to run each package, one after the other (each one waiting until the previous one completes before it begins), until they have all processed. It would be nice if it did not rely on SQL Server being installed on the machine on which it is being run...
thanks for all the fantastic support on this site

I'm experiencing some frustration with my active/passive SQL cluster not running my .DTSX packages. I am hoping someone can shed some light on what I need to do.
I've created some .DTSX packages with the SQL Server Business Intel Dev Studio. I initially built & tested these packages in a non-SQL cluster environment without any problems. I'm now re-creating them to work on our SQL cluster. If I run the package through the Dev Studio it works great.
The packages basically grab .txt files from one of the shared drives (which is a resource of the sql cluster group) and imports the data into the one of the databases. The database does not have any special settings (right-click -> new database... -> enter name -> click ok).
I've setup a SQL Server Agent Job with 1 step with the following properties.
Step name: I Offices
Type: SQL Server Integration Services Package
Run as: SQL Agent Service Account
Package source: File system
Package: G:ImportRAGFLOffices.dtsx
When I run the SQL Server Agent Job through MSSQL Server Management Studio (right-click -> start job) I get an error on "Execute job 'RAGFL TestJob'".
These are the 2 messages that show up when I view the history of the SQL Server Agent job.

Hi Techs,
I have created several DTS Packages those are working fine, tested and verified.
I need to run them by a single click, either by batchfile or some sort of command.
Thanks

Hi all
Our data management system currently runs DTS packages using DTSPKG.dll.
I am currently looking at the possibliity of replacing the DTS packages and SQL 2000 with DTSX packages using SSIS in SQL 2005.
Do I need a new dll? or will the current dtspkg.dll handle the new DTSX packages?
Many thanks in advance!

I have spent the last couple of weeks going through about 15-20 different examples/tutorials on running DTS packages from inside a C# Windows app (and even asp.net). I must have a mental block, because I can't seem to make it click in my head. I have hundreds of DTS packages saved as .dtsx files. I can double click on them and run them perfectly. What I need to do is be able to run them conditionally from inside a windows app. Could anyone point me to a tutorial or example that could help me with this? I've even looked at some VB source to see if I could work it out, but I keep running up against a wall. I'd appreciate any help anyone can provide.

I have some familiarity with DTS packages, and find them easy ( generally) to debug as you can run them step by step and simply find the offending step. when they fail they also put a message box with the error in the centre of the screen. My system has recently been updated and now uses DTSX packages. I can open and veiw these in visual studio, but i cannot run them one step at a time, and they dont give a nice error message when they fail. how do you debug a DTSX package, or at least make debugging it a little easier?

First off, can you post .dtsx packages to the forum? I always end up cutting and pasting code, which is by is nature incomplete, as it generally has external dependencies (connections, variables).
Perhaps you cannot do so for security reasons?
Second, is there a good blog site that allows you to post .dtsx packages?
I'd rather post .dtsx links than cut and paste code (which half the time formats the code un-recognizably), or even worse, post package xml, which contains the layout information and possibly IL that makes it all but unreadable.

Hi
I am trying to build a package that is comprised of 100+ dtsx packages but cannot seem to get it to work. I have created a new connection where the connectionmanagertype = file and the file path is equal to the folder in which my dtsx files are located. I (location = fileSystem). No matter what I do I get an access denied error that shows the folder location but no package. I manually typed the name of the package in the PackageName property and have pasted in the PackageID in the appropriate property as well but I don't see anything in the PackageNameReadOnly. I have read the MSDN information but I don't see a step by step way to build a package of packages against which I can compare. Can anyone set me straight?
Thanks.

I have a vb.net application that executes a simple flat file to sql table dtsx package. I want to capture the rowcount to display back to the user to verify the number of rows that were inserted or updated to the table. I have a Row Count component placed between the flat file source(without errors) and the destination component. I have assigned a variable named RecordCount to the Row Count component. So far so good I hope : )
Now, I also use a variable to "feed" the package the flat file source. This works fine, but I cannot figure out how to retrieve the row count information and how to assign that to the variable RecordCount.
Also, if anyone has any insight on the way to work with the OnProgress method in SSIS I would appreciate that as well. In SQL 2000 using DTS I create a "PackageEventsSink" that I had found online, and it worked great for monitoring the progress of the DTS. Can't seem to figure out how to get it to work in SSIS.
Thanx,
Mike

Hi All,
I've been assigned a task by one of the programmer in my team to create packages from some of the databases(One from SQL2005&Other one from SQLEXPRESS)
I've created and saved the packages using the export wizard.I saved the Packages as Integration Services Packages(On file System).
Now he wants me to execute the packages using SSIS But in different time,like maybe after 5min.Other package runs.
I really have no clue how to do that,I've added Both packages in SSIS,But i really dont know how to run them in different time.
If anyone could help please do so!

Hello Everyone,
I am going through the following article
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141766.aspx
and I have some clarifications to seek.
Based on the above article it seems its possible to run a DTS package on a SQL 2006 X64 machine.
Furthermore it seems possible that this package will run without any upgrade being performed to SSIS.
Also, to execute the DTS package in 32 bit mode, all I have to do is to set the job step type of SQL Agent to Operating system, and enter a command line or use a batch file that invokes the 32-bit version of dtexec.exe. You can use the dtexecui.exe utility to create the command line, and then copy and paste the command line into the job step.
Are the above deductions correct? Please let me know if some correction / refinement is needed.

Hello,
I hope that I am posting to the correct forum.
I have created a SSIS package in VS2005 to export data fom SQL Server2005 into Excel. The package works every single time I run it from the VS designer. When I run the package from a WinForms app using C# the result of the package is always 'Failure'.
I have seen the code on a number of different sites on how to do this and am very confident the code is correct. However, I cannot figure out why the package fails from my app as I am not getting back and error messages. Can anyone please shed some light on this for me?
Here is the code that executes the package:
private void btnExport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DTS.DTSExecResult result;
DTS.Package pkg = app.LoadPackage(pkgLoc + "GKDataOut.dtsx", null);
pkg.ImportConfigurationFile(pkgLoc + "GKDataOut.dtsConfig");
try
{
result = pkg.Execute();
tbCandidates.Text = result.ToString();
}
catch (DTS.DtsException err)
{
MyMessageBox.ShowBox(err.ToString(), "Candidate export error", false, 2);
}
finally
{
}
}
I am very new to .Net. Perhaps I'm doing something blatently stoopid but can't see it.
Many thanks in advance,
Roi Paris

I have been trying to get a clear explanation on what I need to do in order to be able to execute SSIS packages which I have located on an app server. Is it that I need integration services installed on the app server itself and thats it? Or can someone tell me if there is any more to it, thanks folks!

With DTS you could copy and register some DLLs onto a non-SQL Server PC and run Packages. Is this still possible with SSIS? I imagine that, at the very least, you would have to copy dtexec.exe and the *,dtsx files to the other computer.

I am facing some issues while working on SSIS in VS2005,
The Scenario is we have 35 excel files from which we have to import data
to Sql 2005.
We have to execute these packages in a specific sequence so we are not
using For Each Loop Control.
Now the Problem is this that we have 35 executables as an output that is
corresponding to each package, and from each executable we can Change
excel path and Sql Connection String.
The problem is that one has to open each executable to set the path; we
wanted to keep them Configurable like , as if we can have any variable
define in the packages for path, and in the packages we use that variable
and append the XLS file name to it like ..
@PathVariable+ test.xls
And from the Configuration file at run time we can set the path to this
variable like
@Path Variable="C: /Windows/ Test Folder/"
And then executable picks the path from there.
Is there any possibility to implement any thing similar, we have tried but
its not working, any help in this regard will be really appreciating.
Its really urgent, I will wait for feedback on this.

hi ... i several ssis packages which has to be started as and when required. i want to give users that have no access to the sql server the possibility to start some of these packages (ideally out an an erp system or as web interface) the first idea that came in my mind was to create a webservice on sql server which calls the dtexec with the given parameters, but i have no idea if this is the best solution or if this is possible at all.

On 64 bit SSIS platforms (win2k3 and vista), where the amount of virtual memory is practically unlimited, is there any advantage to running child Integration Services Execute Package Tasks out of process? The question pertains to 64 bit processes on a 64 platform, not 32 on 32, or 32 bit emulation processes on 64.
Would the answer be different based on the amount of physical memory on the machine, supposing one had a "reasonable" amount of memory on the machine (e.g. 4Gb or more )

Hi - I have a master package that executes a series of other packages. Each of these 'sub' packages has the security property Encryption Level set to 'EncryptSensitiveWithPassword'.
The master package has a series of file connections in the Connection Manager, one for each sub package, in which the password of the corresponding sub package is provided.
When I run the master package in BIDS (in interactive mode) it opens each of the sub packages, requests the password and gives the 'Document contains one or more lines of extremely long text' dialog box.
Is there any way to suppress the repeated password requests (seeing as it has already been provided in the Connection Manager) and warnings about long lines of text when executing the master package?
Thanks . . . Ed

The scenario:
I have a package that first needs to copy some files from a workstation computer up to a server. If I set the package execution up as a job, the packages executes under a domain account (<domain><sql agent>). This domain account does not have access rights to the directory on the workstation, therefore the package can not see or copy the files in the directory. I have tried to execute the package from the command line using 'RUNAS' with 'dtexec.exe' (runas /user:<domain><user> detexec.exe ...) using my own user name and apparently, because you have to wait for the password prompt, this doesn't work either.
So, is there a way for me to set up a package to run under a specific set of credentials so that I am able to copy the files from the workstation up to the server? I realize that just setting up the current <sql agent> user with the proper credentials would be the easiest, but our network admin group won't hear of it. They want one user id that SQL Server, SSIS, SSAS and SSRS run under (the <sql agent> account) and another user id that has the file system access that I described above.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
