I have developed my ssis packages on my local system.Now i want to move them to a remote server.I have connected to the remote server over vpn.Now how do i transfer them to the server.Once i transfer i need to make few changes to the connection.What is the best way to transfer and make it work.
And then i want to schedule the packages to run automatically.
Please let me know
How should i transfer the package from one server to other. For eg I have few packages in my test DB and i need to move this to prodcution only difference is server names. How should i handle this? Is there any features in SSIS / SQL server just to change the server name connections alone globally? Please advice.

I am new to SQL Server and need to understand how to run DTS packages (SSIS) in SQL 2005 from a remote server? In other words run them from another server from where the database is installed.
I am looking for any links on the subject, guidance on how to set this up and how to use it.

I want to execute a package that's found on a remote server as MSDB.
View 21 Replies View RelatedHi,
Is that possible to execute SSIS packages from a remote SQL Server 2005 in another domain at local computer (Windows XP)?
Can I use SQL authentication to connect to the remote SSIS? My problem is, the user who execute the SSIS is not allow to access to SQL server directly. Is that possible to code everything in a batch file instead?
I tried to use web services to execute the remote SSIS but it always return "authentication error"?
Can someone help?
Many thanks!

Hi everyone!
I have a question regarding ASP.NET 2.0 reading available packages (calling "GetDtsServerPackageInfos" on the "Application"-Object which returns "Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.PackageInfos") from a remote SSIS server (not running them). It seems to me that I am experiencing either a security/delegation issue or that I am trying to do something that is not possible...
The setup is the following.
I have two machines, A and B. A runs IIS 6/ASP.NET 2.0 and B runs SQL Server and SSIS. They belong to the same domain. IIS runs the application pool with the webapplication in question under the "Network Service" account and A is trusted for delegation to B. At the moment its trusted when using Kerberos and for MSSQLSrvc and rpcss; but I tried "all" and many more as well.
I configured IE to use Windows Authentication and set the URL to belog to the Intranet (to enable kerberos authentication).
My ASP.NET webapplication now tries to read (in the sense explained above) the available packages on the SSIS machine (B). The packages are stored on the filesystem, not in mdsb. But I feel that this does not matter, since ASP.NET is accessing them through "the SSIS service" which can access packages in msdb or/and on the filesystem?
What happens now is that
a) everything works, when I fire up IE on A and access the webapplication. The user I have on A is a local admin.
b) I get "E_ACCESSDENIED" when I start IE as regular User on A
c) I get "E_ACCESSDENIED" when I access the webapplication from any other machine than A (IE6 or IE7)
My main question is: is it possible to do what I want to do? The other question is, why does everything work when I access the webapplication from A, but not from any other machine? The second thing makes me think it could be a delegation issue (double hop and SSIS don't seem to go togethe too well). But still, I could not find any resource telling me that this is impossible And frankly, I do not fully understand delegation and/or Kerberos.
I would greatly appreciate if anybody had a pointer or something for me.

Btw: Thanks to Caddre for his (her?) first help and pointing me to this forum.
I would like to transfer the data that i retrieved from the sql server 2005 to gridview and save the data displayed on the gridview to a excel sheet. Is there any tutorial or articals regarding this topic. I know this is not really the topic that belongs here but i could not find any more appropriate place. Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
i created a SSIS package to import data to a remote sql server, using the following connection string:
"Data Source=My-SQL;User ID=PortalUser;Password=Password;Initial Catalog=TestOMIWarehouse;Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Auto Translate=True;";
and got an error "Login failed".
When i give PortalUser a sysadmin server role, it works. But i don't want to give PortalUser a sysadmin role. Any suggestions? Is sysadmin role required to access a remote server using Sql server authentication?
thanks! Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I am trying to apply the sample provided by Microsoft in the following article:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms403355.aspx
I am trying to call a SSIS package from a web service hosted on the same machine as the package file is sitting. The package is running fine from the Agent and also by the "Integration Services Project" in VS.NET.
I had a lot of problems with permissions but they are resolved, at least I have no error messages to point to that direction. Now I am getting these results:
1. Error: -1073659874 / Description: The file name "\Diver-svrInputDataFilesdn_cust.txt" specified in the connection was not valid.
2. Error: -1073659875 / Description: Connection "bdn_cust" failed validation.
3. Error: -1073659874 / Description: The file name "\Diver-svrInputDataFilesdn_cust.txt" specified in the connection was not valid.
4. Error: -1073659875 / Description: Connection "SourceConnectionFlatFile" failed validation.
Where \DiverMInputFilesdn_cust.txt" is a file processed by the package.
Is there anybody who can give me some directions. Thank you in advance.
I have written a VB component to execute a SSIS package stored in SQL server.
I am using the Microsoft.sqlserver.dts.dtsclient, dtsconnection/dtscommand
and executereader and everything works perfect on the local machine. This is descibed in a msdn site .
But my customer have a remote SQL server and want no extra BI clients/SQL server clients etc on the client machine, only an ordinary windows client and network connection to the SQL server.
My question is: Can you still use dtsclient or do you have to do in some other way?

Hi Everybody,
This request has been sent with High importance.
We have one production server called "Server1" on Domain "Domain1" in Boston,
And one more production server called "Server2" on Domain "Domain2" in remote in California.
Server1 ------------- Sqlserver 6.5 version SP5a update
Compaq 6500 server 4 GB ram with 3 GB for Sqlserver and 1 GB for Windows NT 4.0
Approx. 300 user connections a day and more transactions which is the main server for Online store on the web.
Server2 ------------- Sqlserver 7.0 Version SP3 version
We are have a DTS package developed to export 5000 records for eg.; from Server2 to Server1 through ODBC connection. We have planned to run this as a job in off hours as for now.
we are planning to write VB script for all transactions like select calling procedures etc., thru ODBC which is going to be developed as a DTS package and run by VB script from remote server server2 (7.0). (we have network problems and blocking issues too when user connects to this server server 1 (6.5))
Can anyone suggest me whether we can move forward to this.
We know we will face ODBC Connectivity issues. and Need to run the object error when running VBScript with DTS Run - Bug Ref: Q271889 - Microsoft Knowledge Base.
But any performance problem, memory leak which will affect the server1 (6.5) heavily bringing it down.
Thanks in advance.

I'm trying create a DTS package on a remote server (accessed over the Internet) to do a data load.
I can connect and update the database in Enterprise Manager. However when running the wizard to create the DTS package I get an error trying to establish a connection.
Error Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider Error for SQL Server
Error description : [DBMSSOCN] General Network Error.
Any suggestions why this might be or how I can get around it?
- When I disable "allow remote connections to this server" from server properties>connection page, I can still remotely connect to the server from SSMS...so what is the impact of enable/disabling it?
- what is the impact of changing the remote query timeout (on the same page) from default value?
Hi there.
Here is my problem: I'm trying to copy a few tables from an ODBC database located on a PC on my LAN to a SQL Server on a remote server.
To do this I have created a DTS package on the SQL Server which runs smoothly, copying the data as it should, but only as long as it copies the data from the ODBC database on my own computer where I have Enterprise Manager installed. The moment I try to copy data from another PC in the network where Enterprise Manager is not used to execute the DTS package the task fails to run.
I'm quite at a loss here and would very much appreciate a notch in the right direction. Perhabs some source or book which I may read to solve the problem.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
is there any way to execute a SSIS package at the SQL Server programatically from a remote computer? (I use .net 2)
I don't need variables or return values, I only want to start the package. I know that it is easier to do that job with a webservice etc on the SQL Server but I cannot use such.
A method to call a package from a stored procedure would also help me a lot
Kind regards, _Rodney_
hi all,
thanks for the valuable information all the time!!! saved me a lot of time...
our team developes a system for text data improvement using ssis .
we have a few heavy packages that we want to execute on two separate "SSIS servers" that will be dedicated to runnung these packages only, and repeatedly. the main sql server will be placed on a different server machine .
my question is:
what is the best way to do this?
if we schedule these packages as a job of the Sql Ajent- does that mean that the packages will be executed on the sql server machine (which is not what we want) ? or could we define a remote machine to run the package on, and specify our "SSIS servers"?
or- should we use a simple scedualer on the "SSIS servers" using a dtexec command? but then i loose the benefits in using the sql agent- such as logging, notifications, etc.
do we need to install sqlserver on these "ssis servers"?
thanks for your replies!
I'm fairly new to SSIS, and I'm looking for some general guidance on the best approach to take to a particular issue. Essentially, I've built a web application, running on a remote server, and I'm looking to take the contents of an Excel spreadsheet, load it into memory, run a whole mess of calculations against it, and then load the results into a table on MS-SQL 2005. The calculations are in a class library, written in C#, so my sense was that the best approach would be to a) load the data into a datareader, b) run the calculations against the data and c) load it to SQL. Of these steps, a) seems like the place where SSIS would come into play.
My question is, once I've got the data into a datareader, how can it be accessed from my code? I'd been playing around with DtsClient until having the realization that it was intended to be used locally. Is there a similar method for doing this sort of thing remotely?

OS: Windows 2012, standard, 64-bit
SQL: 2012 + SP1 + CU2 = 11.0.3339
We recently decided to "break apart" our BI environment. We used to have everything on one box, DB Engine, SSIS, SSAS & SSRS. Everything has been running fine, but we now have other projects using these services, so we decided to break them apart into their own boxes.
We now have DB Engine on one Server, SSIS & SSRS on another server and SSAS on yet another server, so we now have three boxes that replaced one box. All are Windows 2012, standard, 64-bit with SQL Server 2012 + SP1 + CU2.
Since some of our SSIS packages have to access external resources, we used a domain account for it's service account. The DB Engine and SSAS box are using the default service accounts when installed. I can execute the packages fine on the SSIS server, I can even execute them via SQL Agent jobs on the SSIS box (we did install a default instance of SQL on the SSIS box), however when I try to execute a package from my laptop, it fails with the ugly "Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYANONYMOUS LOGON'".
I immediately double checked my SPNs and they all looked correct for the SSIS server and the service account we are using (and we had no duplicates). I also double checked the User Rights Assignment in the Local policy editor and all the correct Rights have been assigned (Log on as a service, Bypass traverse checking, Impersonate a client after authentication).
I am finishing a port of a project that was done with RS2000/AS2000/DTS2000. The cube process is triggered remotely by a Korn Shell script from Services for Unix that runs a DTS package:
dtsrun.exe /S "$ANALYSIS_SERVICES_HOST" /U "$ANALYSIS_SERVICES_USER" /P "$ANALYSIS_SERVICES_PASSWORD" /N "$PACKAGE_NAME"
I have finished porting the AS and RS parts to their 2005 equivalents and now I am trying to get the cube processing converted. I have built a SSIS package that processes the cube and I have deployed it to the SQL Server in MSDB. When I am logged on to the SQL Server box directly, I can execute the package via the Management Studio and from the command line via:
dtexec /Ser "$ANALYSIS_SERVICES_HOST" /DT "$PACKAGE_PATH_NAME"
When I try to register the SQL Server in Integration Services from my client PC Management Studio it fails with "Access Denied". When I try to run the dtexec from my client PC it fails with "Access Denied".
I have walked through Kirk Haselden's instructions at:
http://sqljunkies.com/WebLog/knight_reign/archive/2006/01/05/17769.aspx
(adding myself to Distributed COM Users, noting the correct DCom Config settings for MsDtsServer and restarting the Integration Services service) and the problem is still not resolved. I have posted to the DTS group on Technet and now I am posting here. This can not be run scheduled by SQL Agent as it needs to be triggered by other load/postload activities. Are there any other fixes for this problem that I can try?
Thanks,
Keehan
By the way, being able to have all the parts of this project in one dev environment is great. The previous application was developed in 3 separate locations which was pretty clunky.
Hi,
I have created a SSIS package on my local machine.
I need to deploy this package on a Test Server and it should execute as a scheduled job.
I am not sure of the steps I need to follow and things I need to be careful about.
I have the following doubts:
1) While developing the package, I have referred to the local SQL Server with Windows credentials.
2) The package, once deployed on the Test Server needs to point to the test server database with SQL Server credentials.
3) I know how to create a deployment utility. However, I am not sure if the deployment manifest will run without errors on the remote machine.
4) Even if the deployment manifest executes successfully and deploys the packages, how do I generate a script to create a Job and schedule the package?
5) I am using a File DSN to connect to IBM DB2 database in one of my Data Flow Tasks in this package. How do I configure it automatically on the remote machine? Won't there be any issues with it?
Please help me...
Thanks and Regards,

I am developing a package to restore a database from backup file on a remote server. I am having problems accessing the remote backup file when it is addressed via the admin share, in this case N$. It runs okay if a specific share is created but for some unknown reason fails via the adminshare.
I am executing the package job with a proxy account that is a member of the local administrators group on the remote server.
It appears that access via a remote admin share isn't possible from within a SSIS package. Is this the case?
I am trying to add a linked server from a AMD x64 server (Windows 2003) with SQL Server 2005 64 bit to a Server running SQL 2000. These are not in the same domain.
I can create a linked server using the option "Be made using the login's current security context" but can not when trying to specify the security context, i.e. sa and the sa password. When I try I get the following message:
Msg 15185, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_addlinkedsrvlogin, Line 98
There is no remote user 'sa' mapped to local user '(null)' from the remote server 'DTS_FSERVER'.
I have several other x64 server that I have no problem creating a linked server and specifying sa and the sa password.
The problem with using "the login's current security context" option is that I get an error when trying to run any Jobs against the linked server. The job fails withe the following error:
Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM. Access to the remote server is denied because no login-mapping exists. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 7416). The step failed.
I'm sure the two errors are related. Any ideas what is going on?
Hello,
I have a bundling package that runs about 20 other packages. It has been working fine for a while but a couple of days ago it fail with the following message,
Error 0x800706BE while loading package file "D:PackagesToradSales.dtsx". The remote procedure call failed.
I´m running the SSIS packages in an 64-bit environment.
Thankful for help with this!

Hi,
I created a package which passes some infornmations( through parameters) to its child package.
I need to do some processing in parent package based on execution status of child package.i.e.
if child fails then some operation and if child succeeds then other operation.
To determine the status of execution of child package I am using two differnt constraint ..one constraint is having value "Success" and other having value "Failure".
My problem is that when child packge is executed successfully the constraint with value = "Success" works properly but when child fails the constraint with value "Failure" does not work.

Hi,
I'd like to know if there's a way to pass parent package parameters to a package executed by SQL Server Job Agent? It appears that sp_start_job doesn't have any variable that could accomodate this.
Hope to hear your ideas.
Hi there
We have a SSIS run which runs as follows
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 - €œcannot connect to database xxx€?
Info - €œpackage 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 - €œtimeout when connect to database xxx€?
Info - €œpackage 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.
Thanx,

Hi,
I have packages stored in SQL store. I was letting users run the packages from a .net app that I made with
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Now I have noticed this causes the packages to run on the client pc cpu, as well as the network traffic is done via the client pc, in my particular case this is slow.
From the doc and in this forum I have found that you can run a package on the Server cpu through sql agent, let packages be run in a sql job. after that you can start a package from an application with the SQL sp_start_job .
But How do you set a user::varibale in a package if you have to start the package from a sql agent job ?
There must be a difference, but I don't know what it is.
Can someone please explain the advantages and disadvantages of each method?
Thanks in advance.
Fellow Devs,
I have an instance of SQL Server Express 2005 running on another box and I have Remote Connections enabled over both TCP/IP and Named Pipes, but on my other box I keep getting the error that the server does not accept Remote Connections.
Any ideas why this might be happening? Is there some other configuration?
if you can restore a database to Server B using Server A as the service. Meaning we would issue the command on Server A but somehow point to Server B as where we want the restore to happen.
The backup file would be in a location independent of both servers.
