DTExec And Pasword Prompting
Feb 2, 2007
A colleague of mine is having problems when trying to schedule package execution via a .bat file that executes a .dtsx on a sql server (not file system). The scheduling system that is employed by the company requires a .bat file to execute the package. The packages themselves move data from AS400 servers to SQL Servers. Occasionally (very randomly) when the scheduling system runs the statement in the bat files, the package prompts for password information (for connectivity).
We've tried a number of solutions to this, mostly on the "ProtectionLevel" property of the package itself. We did some research and it seems as though there are a few options.What is the best solution to eliminate this from happening? We certainly don't want to have people checking to make sure the packages don't prompt for passwords.
Thanks.

Hi all,
I have a serious problem with my SSIS Package while executing using 32-bit DTExec and 64-bit DTExec.
Here are the details:
Environment:
Windows Server 2003 64-bit (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)
SSIS 32-bit & 64-bit installed
SQL Server 2005 (Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (X64) - RTM)
SSIS Package details (compiled in 64 bit)
Script tasks only
Microsoft Visual Basic .NET (using TRY...CATCH block)
PreCompileScriptIntoBinaryCode = TRUE
Run64BitRunTime = TRUE
Execution
Batch file that uses DTExec to execute the Package.
SCENARIO
I am trying to exeucte the above SSIS package using both 32-bit and 64-bit DTExec to make it failure by providing invalid connection string. Here are the details,
Wrong connection String using 32-bit Execution
While establishing the connection the error message has been nicely captured in to my Exception block and writes into the log file.
Wrong connection String using 64-bit Execution
While establishing the connection the error has not been catpured anywhere (although I have TRY CATCH block) and it haults there itself with the message "Process is terminated due to StackOverflowException". Later I found that the error is due to the connection string along with the unhandled exception.
Please suggest any one of the following my findings, also if you have any other advice would be very much appreciated.
1. Shall I go ahead and fix the issue by handling those unhandled errors? (e.g Appdomain, application). I tried several but still not working using 64-bit DTExec.
2. Shall I go ahead and use 32-bit DTExec to execute the package? If so, is there any other major issue...like performance or anyother bug?
P.S: We cannot apply any service pack for SQL Server 2005 at the moment. Sorry abt it. If you have any specific hotfix for DTExec (without affecting SQL Server) then we can decide.
Sorry for the lengthy one and Thanks very much for you help in advance .
Thanks again!

I have 2 tasks. Both of them were set for EncryptSensitiveWithPassword. One of them prompts for the password when inporting to the server and again when the job is scheduled. it puts the DECRYPT statement in the config line. Everything works as it should.
The second task does not prompt for the password at any time. There is no DECRYPT statement added and the task fails to run.
WTF is going on????

I have deleted the task and recreated it. I have used dtutil and forced the password. In any case I CANNOT get the job scheduler to see a password is required and add the DECRYPT line, hence I can't execute the tasks.

My PC is in the domain group of SQL Server 2005 Reporting Service, so I can publish the reports. After the reports were published, I can viw the reports from ASP.NET application on the web server, but everyone else was prompted for login. Only my login can view the reports. What can I do to let others to open the reports with the same web application? Thanks.

Hey all,
I know this is a very minor gripe, but I cannot find any way to get SQL Server Management Studio to stop prompting me to save queries. I've poked through all the options without success, but it doesn't seem possible that they would have left this out.
Am I out of luck?

I created a dataset based on a stored procedure. There are nine input parameters. When I click on the preview tab, it is asking me for ten input parameters.
I double checked my dataset on the data tab, and it only shows the expected nine parameters when I look at the parameters tab. I can also run the query without issue from the data tab.
I have no idea why it is asking for an extra parameter on the preview tab. It is a column name that does exist in my database, but is in no way used in the stored procedure in question.
Has anyone else run into a similar situation?

Hello,
I have a command line as following, with DTEXEC to launch the execution of a package and to set a value (13335) of an user variable called CIB (string type):
dtexec /f c: empPackageInsert.dtsx
/set PackageDataFlowTask.Variables[Utilisateur::CIB].Properties[Value];13335
But I have got an error message saying that the object is not known in the package. My variable does exist in the variable window of the dataflow part.
Thank you for telling me what to set so that the variable can be set by the command line.
Regards,
Marie-Thérèse

I understand to schedule an SSIS package to run, I need to use the dtexec utility. I want to schedule the job right within SQL. I walked through how to set up the job, but I really could not decipher the proper syntax to use as a Step.
I have the following:
dtexec /File "C:...file.dtsx"
Is the the proper way to schedule and execute an SSIS package or is there some other way I should be doing this. The pacakge will run unattended nightly. I am using SQL Server 2005.
Thanks for the information

Folks:
I have lots of Stored procedures in which we use 'dtsrun' to run DTS Packages. Now, after I upgrade the server to SQL 2005 will I have to change all the Stored procedure's to reflect 'dtexec' instead of 'dtsrun'?
Thanks !

Hi
I have a SSIS package which pulls files from a network share and loads data into SQLServer Database. When I execute the application using DTExecUI , It runs fine without any issues , but where as when I run it using the command line arguments, It seems to go in sleep mode and nothing happens. I need to kill the package from Task manager.
Following is the command I use to run my application
Dtexec /FILE "N:TempLoadFirewallData.dtsx" /CONFIGFILE "N:TempLoadFirewallData.dtsConfig" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EWCDI /SET "Package.Variables[User::RunID]";41

This was directly from BOL.
/Conf[igFile] filespec
(Optional). Specifies a configuration file to extract values from. Using this option, you can set a run-time configuration that differs from the configuration that was specified at design time for the package. You can store different configuration settings in an XML configuration file and then load the settings before package execution by using the /ConfigFile option.
Does this mean that I can specify which configuration file to use during runtime?
Or is just because I'm too desperate for that, I understood that way
Thanks

Hi,
The DTEXEC Utility has the capability of returning ReturnCodes which have specific meanings e.g.
ReturnCode=3 means: The package was canceled by the user.
Is it possible to set my own ReturnCode values?
For example, my Package contains a Script Task which contains code to search a folder for a file. If the file cannot be found then I make the Script Task fail and hence the Package fails. But, when the Package is invoked by the DTEXEC utility, then the ReturnCode is always set to 1. Is it posssible to set the ReturnCode from within the Package (in, say, a Script Task in the Event Handler) to a different value?
It is necessary to be able to set custom application-specific return codes because these return codes are passed to the Batch Scheduler which alerts Operations (Support) staff in the event of failure. Meaningful (custom) ReturnCodes expedite problem solving and are (usually) mandatory in large production environments.
If it is not possible to make a Package return my own returncodes via DTEXEC then can you suggest alternative solutions, please?
Thanks.

Hi All,
I'm trying to execute DTExec from a workstation and I got some help from a different group without luck maybe someone here can help me.
This is what I try so far.
1. My package run in command line from my sql box using dtexec with
parameters.
2. Set the package with DontSaveSensitive and import into IS under MSDB with
the same option setup.
3. Set package role to public.
4. Share DTS folder with everyone permission just for testing.
5. Execute the package from a workstation using
//sqlServerbox/DTS/BINN/dtexec /dts "msdb/mypackage" /SER "MySQLServer" /set
package.variables[myvariable].Value;"myvalue1,myvalue2"
(myvariable is string and I can pass multiple values separate by commas)
6. Still getting error:
Error: 2007-02-09 10:31:34.31
Code: 0xC0010018
Source: Execute DTS 2000 Package Task
Description: Error loading a task. The contact information for the task

ort/default.asp;1". This happens when loading a task fails.
End Error
Anyone has any ideas?
Any help will be appreciate it. Tks in advance...

I can't crack this problem and my Google-Fu is failing me. I am using DTEXEC from a stored procedure to set a global variable in an SSIS package and execute the SSIS package, but I am getting an error. I will include the SQL code and the error that I am getting:
Code:

All the examples I find over DTEXEC seem to follow what I am doing in the code and making variables in an SSIS package isn't rocket science, so I don't understand where I am going wrong.
I have seen people suggest indirect configuration as a solution, but when I set it up (using the environmental variable TEMP from the dropdown) it doesn't seem to help anything. I have used the exact path from the configuration wizard, though, so I'm pretty sure I have the path right.
Can anybody spare a clue?

HI, with a dataflow that has delay validation property = true, DTExec will not try to validate it when I call it with /validate option. Is there a way to see if the dataflow validate even though the delay validation property is set to true?

It was quite strange with dtexec....
The problem started with my package being scheduled under the SQL Agent.
I have two packages... one with simple SQL tasks and another with complex loop,sql tasks and activex scripts. Both using the XML configuration files for those DB Connection strings, user names and passwords.
First I tried to schedule the two packages under Sql agent using SSIS steps.
Both failed and I found out that I should set the ProtectionLevel to non-default.
So I set the protection level to 'DontSaveSensitive' and it works fine with the first package but the second package failed. After I tried many way (changing configuration files, setting and reinstalling the packages inside SQL DB etc..) I found a blog that I should try with CmdExe step in Sql agent scheduler rather than SSIS step. So I tried but still failing. the message said dtexec could not find the configuration xml file. Even I tried in the command prompt with the same command, it couldn't find the configuration. If I went into the directory where the configuration files are stored and run the command, it run fine. Seem like dtexec could not read the configuration from other directory. but still the sqlagent is failing...
Somebody have a clue?

In my previous post here: https://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1044739&SiteID=1 Michael Entin provides a number of responses to my questions regarding programatic execution of remote SSIS packages.
Having experienced some significant reliability problems with the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime components from an ASP.NET process (the page either times out, or inevitably just stops responding), I have been prototyping the DTExec command option which Michael suggests as being a better approach to remote programability.
So, off I've been prototyping this all day today...
I have a stored procedure that wraps a call to xp_cmdshell which takes the DTS (DTEXEC) params as a big long argument. This scenario would hopefully allow me to call the sproc from an ASP.NET application.
The proc is deployed to a SQL 2005 machine running SSIS (which I now understand is a REQUIREMENT for targetting SSIS "remotely"). The package targets a seperate SQL 2000 machine and includes two connection managers which are set to use SSPI. I use configuration option files to allow for configurable connection manager target/sources.
In this scenario, it does not seem that the DTEXEC command runs in the same context as the caller. and as a result, a peculiar account called MACHINENAME$ is used (where MachineName is literally the name of the SQL 2005 machine). The account authentication fails (obviously) when the package tries to establish a connection to any of the connection managers because MACHINENAME$ does not exist on the connection manager servers.
Based on the following excerpt from the MSDN doc on xp_cmdshell, it would seem that MACHINENAME$ is probably the LOCAL SYSTEM, which is the process tha the SQL Server Service is running under:
When xp_cmdshell is invoked by a user who is a member of the sysadmin fixed server role, xp_cmdshell will be executed under the security context in which the SQL Server service is running. When the user is not a member of the sysadmin group, xp_cmdshell will impersonate the SQL Server Agent proxy account, which is specified using xp_sqlagent_proxy_account. If the proxy account is not available, xp_cmdshell will fail. This is true only for Microsoft® Windows NT® 4.0 and Windows 2000. On Windows 9.x, there is no impersonation and xp_cmdshell is always executed under the security context of the Windows 9.x user who started SQL Server.
Obviously, settting the ENTIRE SQL Server service to run as a fixed account or even a domain account is probably not appropriate for client sites. Any opinion to the contrary is welcome.
In reading Kirk Haselden's walkthrough for setting up a SQL Agent Proxy, this seems incredibly involved. Before I go through this exercise, can anyone validate that this is the way to go for doing SSPI?
A work-around is to use SQL Server Auth for the connection managers and use configuration files to try to obfuscate these details, but my preference would be SSPI/Windows Integrated.
Thanks.

I have a legacy extraction ("E") .NET 1.1 application that is still going to be the driving force for our ETL process. We are going to be utilizing SSIS for "T" and "L". Now, the "E" phase is running on an application server where we have .NET 1.1 framework installed and working. The SSIS packages are running on a separate SQL Server. The problem here is - how do we call the SSIS package and be able to pass in the right parameters from this .NET app that runs on a separate box? We would like to use DTEXEC to call the remote SSIS packages through Integrated Security. The SSIS packages are stored as File System packages.

When I try to execute a package (in sql server) using DTEXEC I get the following error. The creator of the package is different from the executing user of the package. But I have also set EncryptionLevel FROM EncryptWithUserKey TO DontSaveSensitive (Which I assume should resolve this issue), re-imported the package to sql server, but the error remains the same. Any pointers?
The utility was unable to load the requested package. The package could not be loaded.

Hi All,
When I was trying to execute an SSIS package from DTExec using xp_cmdShell, it is giving an error message saying "unrecognized command,...". This error I am getting only in my Staging Environment. But at the same time, it is working fine with Development and Production servers.
I suspect the issue should be with config or access issues. So if anyone of you faced the same problem or if anyone have any solution, please share with me.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi all,
does anybody know if it is possible to use environment variables when calling dtexec utility?
I'd like to run packages stored on server's file system from directory that I've had specified in an environment variable called SSIS_PackagesPath.
Now, I'am trying to write dtexec command, where path to the actual SSIS package would be concatenation of environment variable (i. e. path to package directory) and name of package itself (written explicitly). Is this syntactically possible?
The reason behind is to be able to easily modify package storage directory for multiple scheduled jobs that run SSIS packages.
Any other ideas are hapilly welcomed.
Thanks,
Marek

I receive the error below when running a package using dtexec. The package itself runs ok, however. That is, my data loads into the table.
All this package does is execute 3 separate Execute SQL tasks that are simple insert statements into a table.
There are NO script tasks or components in the package. So what is this weird error about?
