I have changed a legacy dts 2000 package. It resides on a sql 2005 server. How do I schedule it? That option doesn't look like it is available for legacy 2000 dts packages.
I have a legacy DTS package on my test SQL Server 2005 in the ManagementLegacyData Transformation Services folder. I can run the package, but how can I schedule it?? this doesn't appear to be an option anymore like it was in 2000.
the SQL Management Studio keeps crashing out on me everytime i try to open a Lookup in one of my DTS packages i am using in the Legacy section.
I am copying the DTS package across and need to change the server connections (which i do), but then i was getting a permissions based error when the package ran when it tries to access the Lookup.
I tried to open the Lookup and the SQL Management Studio hanged when it tried to display the details for the lookup. It's done this many times and i have tried different files incase one was corrupted to no avail.
Hi All, One of my user was able create DTS package using DTS Wizard, working from his workstation and saved this DTS in Legacy(in Data Transaformation services) on different SQL 2005 EE SP 2(9.0.3042) production server.. At same time he has no access to msdb on this SQL 2005 server(he also not sysadmin for this server).. How this could happen..??
We have a SQL server with many legacy DTS packages. sa and Admins can open them and change them then save them but we need to allow the DTS people (Developers) the rights to save the package after they have opened it and modified it.
Hey, I've a few jobs which call SSIS packages. If I run the SSIS package, it runs fine but if I try to run the job which calls this package, it fails. Can someone help me troubleshoot this issue? None of my jobs that call an SSIS package work. All of them fail.
And there is a task (Execute SSIS package) in First package that calls the execution of second package.
I m continuously receiving an error "Failed to decrypt protected XML node "PackagePassword" with error 0x8009000B "Key not valid for use in specified state.". You may not be authorized to access this information. This error occurs when there is a cryptographic error. Verify that the correct key is available."
As we are running first package by job, job runs successfully logging above error
The protection level of second package is set to "EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey"
I have a SSIS job, one of the last steps it performs is to execute a SQL 2000 DTS package. This has to be done as a SQL 2000 DTS package as it is performing rebuilds of SQL 2000 Analysis Services dimensions and cubes. We've found that when the DTS fails the SSIS job is happily completing showing as a success, we would prefer to know it went wrong.
As far as I'm aware SSIS merely starts the DTS off and doesn't care about it's result. I've taken a look in to turning on the logging for the execute DTS package and thought that the ExecuteDTS80PackageTaskTaskResult would give me the answer I need...but is merely written to the log not available as an event-handler. It also looks like it is not safe to put a SQL task in as the next item to go look at the SQL 2000 system tables to look at the log for the DTS package as the SSIS documentation warns that the DTS package can continue to run after the execute DTS package task has ended.
Ideally I want any error raised within the DTS package to cascade up to be an error in the SSIS job, I can then handle it appropriately. I cannot find a way to do this. Is there a way?
If not, can anyone suggest how in the remainder of the SSIS tasks I can be sure that the DTS has completed before I start any other tasks that will check for the SQL 2000 log of its execution?
I have developed an SSIS package for ETL purpose. I am invoking the SSIS package through .Net console application by referencing the ManagedDTS Assembly. I am able to execute the package in Sql Server 2005 Developer Edition and it runs fine till completion.
But when i try to execute the packahe in Sql Server 2005 Standard edition, by invoking the package through .Net console application the status of the package is failure.
Can any one help me how to over come this problem.
I am in the process of moving from a 32-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise (9.0.3054) to a 64-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise (9.0.3054 with 4 CPUs and 8GB of memory on Win 2003 SP2) and the process has been very frustrating to say the least. I am having a problem with packages that I created on my 64-bit SQL Server. I am importing a few tables from the 32-SQL Server into the 64-bit SQL Server using the Task --> Import to create the package.
Sometimes when I am creating a package I get the following error in a message box:
SQL Server Import and Export Wizard
The SSIS Runtime object could not be created. Verify that DTS.dll is available and registered. The wizard cannot continue and it will terminate.
Additional information: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. (System.Windows.Forms)
Other times when I run a package that has run successfully before I get the following error:
Faulting application dtexecui.exe, version 9.0.3042.0, stamp 45cd726d, faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, stamp 00000000, debug? 0, fault address 0x025d23f0.
The package appears to hang when running. By this I mean that the Package Execution Progress shows progress up to a point then it just stops. (The package takes about 17 seconds to run normally) CPU usage is at 1% and the package cannot be stopped.
I have deleted and re-created the package several times and I have also re-installed the service pack on the SQL Server (9.0.3054) but that did not help.
I would like to standardize SSIS development so that developers all start with the same basic template. I have set it up so it is an available template ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908018 ) but I would like it to be the default when a new project or package is created. Is this an option?
I would like to fetch the data flow component name while package is executing. Since system variable named [System::SourceName] only fetches name of the control flow tasks? Is there a way to capture them?
The master package has a configuration file, specifying the connect strings The master package passes these connect-strings to the child packages in a variable Both master package and child packages have connection managers, setup to use localhost. This is done deliberately to be able to test the packages on individual development pc€™s. We do not want to change anything inside the packages when deploying to test, and from test to production. All differences will be in the config files (which are pretty fixed, they very seldom change). That way we can be sure that we can deploy to production without any changes at all.
The package is run from the file system, through a job-schedule.
We experience the following when running on a not default sql-server instance (called dkms5253uedw)
Case 1: The master package starts by executing three sql-scripts (drop foreign key€™s, truncate tables, create foreign key€™s). This works fine.
The master package then executes the first child package. We then in the sysdtslog get:
Error - €ścannot connect to database xxx€? Info - €śpackage is preparing to get connection string from parent €¦€?
The child package then executes OK, does all it€™s work, and finish. Because there has been an error, the master package then stops with an error.
Case 2: When we run exactly the same, but with the connection strings in the config file pointing to the default instance (dkms5253), the everything works fine.
Case 3: When we run exactly the same, again against the dkms5253uedw instance, but now with the exact same databases defined in the default instance, it also works perfect.
Case 4: When we then stop the sql-server on the default instance, the package faults again, this time with
Error - €śtimeout when connect to database xxx€? Info - €śpackage is preparing to get connection string from parent €¦€?
And the continues as in the first case
From all this we conclude, that the child package tries to connect to the database before it knows the connection string it gets passed in the variable from the master package. It therefore tries to connect to the default instance, and this only works if the default instance is running and has the same databases defined. As far as we can see, the child package does no work against the default instance (no logging etc.).
We have tried delayed validation in the packages and in the connection managers, but with the same results (error).
So we are desperately hoping that someone can help us solve this problem.
I am interested in Passing value from a child Package variable to the Parent package that calls it in ssis.
I am able to call the Child package using the execute package task and use Configurations to pass values from the parent variable to the child, but I am not able to pass the value from the child to the parent.
I have a variable called datasetId in both the parent and child. it gets computed in the child and needs to be passed to the parent...
Deployed Report having SSIS package as source do not work when Indirect Package configuration is used in ETL package. It seems ETL package when called/executed from Report manager does not recognize environment variable to pick up the dtsconfig file.
The Report works when Direct package configuration is used to same dtsconfig file.
What could be the reason? Any solution for this? This will cause our build/deployment to QA and Prod very difficult.
I now have two SSIS package, "TESTING" and "LOADING". The "TESTING" package have an execute package task that call the "LOADING" package. When I want to execute the TESTING package, how can I setup the connection string so that I can edit the password of the database connected by the "LOADING" package?
I have two SSIS packages in a project, one calling the other. The parent package works fine in my local mechine. After they are deployed to the production, I schedeul jobs to run the packages in the SqlServer. The child package works fine if I run it alone, but the parent package could not find its child package if I run the parent package . As I checked, all xml config files and the connection string pointing to the child package were set correctly. It seems the parent package did not use the xml config file. Can someone help me? Thanks in advance.
I have successfully created a SSIS package which execute a DTS 2000 package and with no problem to execute the task. But I failed to schedule this package. I was not success in setting the logging. When running the package in command line:

I am making use of the DtUtil tool to deploy my package to SQL Server. Following is my configuration: 32-bit machine and 32-bit named instance of Yukon.
I have some package variables which need to be set in the code.
Previously I did it as follows:
Set the package variables in the code. For example:
Here the package was successfully deployed and when i open those packages using BIDS, I am able to see that the variables are set to the values as doen in teh code.
Because of oen problem I am not using SaveToSQLServer method. So I switched to DTUtil tool. Now I am doing it this way:
Set the package variables as before. Deploy the package to SQL Server using DTUtil tool.
Now is the problem: The package is successfully deployed. But the variables are not set to the value that I have specified in the code.
I also tried DTexec utility to set the package variable. Even that does n't work. Can anyone help me out? Is there any alternate method to set package variables?
when i run the job using network service account credentials job is failing. But when i run the package individually, it is tasting success. when it runs as job, this is the error message i am getting
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "Excel Connection Manager" failed with error code 0xC0202009. There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the AcquireConnection method call failed.
I have changed to 32-Bit run time and ran the excel package, even then it is failing...i tried to use my credentials (i am admin on the box), even then it is failing...please suggest
Hi, I have imported 3 DTS from SQL 2000 to the SQL 2005 server. The wizard went fine, everything is ok. When I close the wizard window, I cannot see any of them. If I reimport it, it asks confirmation to override it. Where are the 3 DTS in the management Studio if they are not under Legacy DTS? Thanks
I am in the process of migrating to a new SQL 2005 server. I have a number of DTS packages on my SQL2000 server, approximately 200, that are used on a daily basis. I used the migration wizard to migrate the packages from the 2000 server to the new 2005 server however there are issues with the way some were brought over. I would like to have all of the packages moved from the 2000 to the 2005 server and appear under Legacy DTS so that I can run them as 2000 DTS packages unitl I have a chance to correct the issues.
Here is where my question lies. The migration wizard migrates upgrades all of the packages. How do I move them from the one server to the other and perserve their 2000 DTS format? The servers are on 2 separate boxes with different instance names. Everything I've read tells you how to run the legacy packages but nothing seems to explain on to move them.
How can I scheudule a legacy DTS 2000 package if it stored in SQL Server itself?
I assume the package 'lives' in the msdb database.
For what bizarre reason is there no option to schedule legacy packages anyway, why provide the DTS legacy/designer components if the ability to schedule them isn't possible?
Is this microsoft's subtle way of telling me that I should convert them to SSIS packages ...I just don't have the time to do that...help
I am trying to migrate DTS packages from sql2000 To SQL2005 server. I am running the migration wizard from Data Transformation services under the ManagementLegacy Node on SQL 2005 server. I get to choose the packages to be migrated, but each of the selected pkg ends with a progress of "STOPPED" in the wizard and the outcome of the wizard shows as Successfull with a chaek mark on Top Left corner.
But No packageg appear under the location reff. above. I like to know if anoyone has a solution for this issue.
I want to achieve the following in (SSIS/SSDT for SQL 2012) -Â
I have a generic SSIS package which simply sends out email notifications using SMTP email task (this package is within its own project, and has project level input parameters).
I need to be able to call this package in the Event handler section of every package (numbering in about less than 60) that we have. These packages are within their own respective projects.
I thought I could use the "execute package task", but it turns out , using this, I cannot call a package that is part of some other project. I also cannot call a package that is stored in the CATALOG. Is there any way I can do this ?
When I call the child package , I should be able to send in parameters like - error information and package name of the Parent package.
I have an SSIS package (TransAgentMaster) that I recently modified to include a call to a child package via the file system. The child package creates a text file. When I run the package in dev studio then the child package/text file is produced.
I then imported the TransAgentMaster as a stored packagesfilesystem package into SQL SSIS and executed the package. The child package produced the text file.
I then ran the SQL Server Agent to see if the child package would work and it did not generate the text file. Thus after updating a SSIS package importing the package into SSIS the job that calls the package will not call the child package. Please not that the TransAgentMaster package calls 7 children packages €¦ just not my new one.
Any thoughts why the agent will not run the child newly crated childe package?
I am converting several DTS pkgs to SSIS. Several of the pkgs contain complicated "Active X script" transformations on text files. That is, it would take me a long time to have to re-write this!
In the meanwhile, do you think it's just best to use the EXECUTE DTS 2000 task until I have a better grip on SSIS??
Also, what is the equivalent of "Active X script" validation in SSIS?
For example, I have an Active X script that checks the values of a particular column in a text file. If the column contains a datefield, then load into the database, if not, then discard... what task in SSIS would replace this logic? (not now, but for later reference)
I am trying to import a legacy dBase III file (.dbf format) into SQL server. The file contains timestamp fields which, as implemented in the dBase data file format, are actually eight-byte character strings. I am using this command:
SELECT * INTO LegacyData FROM OPENROWSET('MSDASQL','Driver={Microsoft dBase Driver (*.dbf)};DBQ=D:Files','SELECT * FROM data.dbf')
The command fails with this error:
Msg 8114, Level 16, State 8, Line 1 Error converting data type DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP to datetime.
This is happening because some of the datetime fields contain strings that can't be parsed by SQL as valid dates and times. The legacy application which created the data file apparently indicated a missing timestamp by storing "- - " as the character string.
If I change the select statement to say "select top 2 *" to only import the first two records (neither of which happen to have any invalid datetime values), the records are imported successfully. What I would like to do is to import all records and either skip those records that have a bad datetime value or, better yet, import all records converting invalid dates to null values.
I tried changing the select statement to include various types of casts but it seems that because the .dbf file indicates that the data field is of time timestamp, SQL will always try to read it as a datetime field regardless of how the select statement is written. I don't currently have any way of modifying the dBase III file or I would attempt to search for and remove the offending records.
Does anyone know of a workaround for such a situation? Is there a way I can import the data using SQL server or will I need to find a dabasebase conversion utility that can handle unparseable date strings?
My manager wants me to produce a legacy dts-style display of an executing package in an asp.net grid view. It would be color-coded the same way: red, green, black showing the status of each step with start and finish time. Any ideas on how to do this?
My packages are migrated over our new 2005 server. How do I schedule/run them? BOL seems to suggest that we replace the dtsrun commands with the dtexec one. Am I on the right track?
