I have been trying to schedule a package I design to run off hour, but unable to do so. Here is a strange issue:
1. I am able to run and excute the package successfully through VSS. After I finished designing all my flows and containers, my exceution was successful to all my data sources.
2. I was able to deploy and run the actual package by sending to my local file system and it runs successfully through Execute Package Utility.
HOWEVER!!! when I tried to schedule this package through file system under sql server agent to run at night or through start job within SQL agent always failed...
I am puzzled so I added some logging on the package. The error message shows the following....
<message>The connection "{087B883F-D188-440A-9501-FF38CF5CEC28}" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.
<message>Failed to acquire connection "10.0.2.2.LogDB.jhwang". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
But I thought if I had set the connection correctly to remember my passwords and using SQL server standard login within my package (connection manager) and should resolved the connection issues....
Why did it failed when I try to run it under sqlagent? But not through Execute Package Utility? Is there is a special setting I need to do for it to run under sql agent?
I notice within the job step when I choose the file source to point to my package... there was a tab called data sources where it has the connections I defined in my package. Does it matter if I put a check box on them or not? Either way they failed to connect.
So did some troubleshooting on the my previous post -http://forums.microsoft.com/forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=272319&SiteID=1
Thanks to everyone who tried to help... So I got some insight into what is happening.
My package was having trouble reading files on a remote domain although I mapped the drives locally. This does not cause either running the package to failed either through directly running under VSS, or Execution Utility. But it failed when I try to schedule it through SQL server agent.
I wonder if it is the security context problem and asking for help of how to get around that issue.
So I have a for each file loop container that retrieve filenames on a remote domain which has a different security account then my local account. So how I got around that was to map that drive locally to a drive letter...example W:
then I use W: as my path within my package. I was trying to figure out where I can declare the connection within my package specifically, but don't know if I could do that.
If I run this through VSS or exectuion utility, it works okay. I was able to see W: and all the files on that mapped drive and read in the data.
However, when I schedule it under SQL agent, it doesn't see any files then exited the package as success right the way, because it has nothing to do....
So is there a different between the security context on mapped drive between VSS and my SQL agent? If so...How do I get around that challenge?
BTW, the two domain do not have share accounts between each others. I had to specified and map the drives explicitly.
I have various ssis packages which need to schadule through SQL server agent, I manage to schadule those packages but every time SQL server agent execute those packages automaticlly they failed ... I went to package log and it gives error that Step one failed, on the other hand if i execute those packages through "Execute Package Utility", they run without any error ...
I want execute package with SQL Server Agent. I create a job and I try all the solutions : my job doesn't want to work.
I success to launch the package but the execution failed.
I try the same job launching from the server : it doesn't work either.
So, I copy the command line (/FILE, /DTS or /SQL) and with DTEXEC utility it works when this command is executed on the server (on a client computer, the problem "the product level is insufficient" appears).
Why is it working with this utility and not with a job ?
I try to change every secured option (credential --> proxy --> Run as ; change the owner of the job ; etc.)
when I try to run a package as Job I receive the following error
Executed as user: SITAsqlserveragent_svc. The package execution failed. The step failed.
Has someone an idea how I can get more detailed information about WHY the job failed? Tha package was created in BIDS and imported into MSDB. Running the package from the Integration Services context menu works, but starting it as a job from SQL Server Agent fails. Any idea or hint what the reason could be or how I can get more information?
I have an SSIS ETL Package that runs perfectly in debugger.
It is saved to the local SQL Server using "rely on server security".
The SQL Server Agent job runs at night and the job fails right at the last step. It is actually loading the data, because I write a record with row counts to an audit table, and they are successfully incrementing.
The real issue to me is that it is failing randomly, sometimes it will run 7 times then fail once, others it will go 2 or 3 days then fail. The job runs at the same time every night, and takes within a minute or two variance.
I've looked at the logs, and done a trace, and I can't seem to find anything that would cause the failure. The closest thing to an error is a join parameter note in the trace that's on tthe MSDB database.
Not a lot to work with, I know... but does anybody have any advice for me? Thank you in advance!
Hello, I've configured SQL Server 2000 for merge replication and am trying to start the snapshot agent for the publication and after about 20 minutes of it trying to start, it gives up with this error.
Server execution failed
There is no more information in the event viewer. I've tried it with a bunch of different subscriptions. SQL Server and SQL Agent are running under a local account which has access to the replcation data directory. SQL Agent is running.
Execution of a scheduled package fails however, direct execution of the package is successful. The package owner and job owner are the local admin account under which SQLAgent and SQLService are starting.
I have been trying to schedule a package I design to run off hour, but unable to do so. Here is a strange issue:
1. I was able to fully run and complete the package through VSS. My package has three steps and I have on complete arrows from one step to the next... When I run it, it does what I expected in SSIS designer.
2. I was able to deploy and run the actual package by double click on the file system and it runs successfully through Execute Package Utility.
So my package does loop through a file folder and insert records from within the folder through execute SQL task to a SQL table...etc. Typically it takes a while to run....
However, when I put the package under SQL agent and run it as a job (through setting up the sql job to call a package on the file system). It runs and completed within a few seconds.... Somehow, it didn't give me an error, but it doesn't seem like it acutally runs the package.
Does the execution of the package somehow sends success message back prematurely to SQL job? Why does it not successful run?
Is there any configuration setting that I am missing here? How can I find out if it actually runs the package and why does it returns so quickly and claim successful, yet it didn't do anything??
I am trying to automate a rather complicated file import routine using a DTS package. I'm getting on ok with it but have now reached the limits of my knowledge.
At the moment I am sent a file every month e.g. "perf04-05m1.csv". I then rename it to "import.csv" and run the DTS package. I would like to make the process more dynamic so that the the DTS package takes in the most recent file no matter it's filename e.g. I don't have to re-name the file to "import.csv" in order for the DTS package to run.
I have had a look at BOL and think that I need to use either a Dynamic Properties Task or a Global variable but I'm not sure how to tie it all together, can anyone offer any pointers or know of any good articles I can have a look at. I may also need to dynamically alter some of the SQL statements within the DTS package as well.

Hi, I have question. My SQL Server Agent Log has the following error messages logged. Does anyone know why this happens. It happens everyday when I back up a 40 GB Database. Let me know. I Appreciate the help.
I have been having a problem with an attempted install of sp2 (the updated one) and don't have a clue on how to get past it. Here is the error that I get
MSP Error: 29537 SQL Server Setup has encountered the following problem: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]SQL Server blocked access to procedure 'dbo.sp_is_sqlagent_starting' of component 'Agent XPs' because this component is turned off as part of the security configuration for this server.
What is strange is that I have ensured that the Agent XP's are enabled prior to the sp install by checking the agent xp's configuration option but it seems as though during the sp install it disables them and encounters problems when trying to start the SQL Agent resulting in a failure of the sp install with the message shown above.
When I check the database after the failure, it does show the AgentXP's as being disabled. I've re-enabled them multiple times with the same result.
The sp is being installed on a 2 node cluster but only one node is having the problem, the other upgraded fine. I have also had this problem on a single non-clustered server with 3 instances where two of them installed fine but one didn't, it too had the same error message.
My basic configuration is as follows: x64 Windows 2003 Standard Edition R2 SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition (for the clustered server) Dev Edition for the standalone server
Any thoughts on how to get past this problem or is this a bug?
While I was out of the office the Lan Team moved one of my SQL Server2000 servers to a new network domain. Since then the maintenance jobhas not ran.The error log for the SQL Agents has the message listed in the subjectline. I have not found any useful articles on the MS SQL Serversite. Anyone know what might be wrong and how to fix it.HTH -- Mark D Powell --
I get 2 errors when I run a job in sql server agent 2005 0xc0202009 and 0x80040E2. I cannot see why I am getting these errors, when I run the job with dtexec it is successful. Also when I run it in the debugger or run the executeable it is successful. But when I try to run it with the agent it fails. Any Ideas would be greatly appriciated.
Im trying to schedule an integration sevice package with no anvile. I have tried both running it in Agent under Integration services and operation system (CmdExec) and still wont work. Under CmdExec, the command is /FILE "C:Documents and SettingsebuahMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsSwamp_SolutionFIRSTTIME_DOWNLOADSSIS_ACT.dtsx" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF. In the advance tab, I checked outfile to a log.txt file so as to read the log if there was any errors. The account running the job is the same account that sql server agent services is running which would only mean I really dont need any proxy account to run the job. When i run the job under CmdExec, i get the error

If you ask me, I dont know whats going on but I am very fustrated. Have been working on this for 4 days now. I really really need help.
I've set up Database Mail on an instance of 2005 and the test mail works just fine. However, when testing a job (notify on fail, success, whatever) the mail fails to send. Job History last information reads NOTE: Failed to notify 'My Name' via email.
Checked out the Database Mail logs - nothing interesting.
Restarted the Agent service and then checked out the current Agent Log. Found message:
[260] Unable to start mail session (reason: No mail profile defined).
The 'DatabaseMailProfile' key is most certainly defined in the Registry (at 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE', N'SOFTWAREMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1SQLServerAgent')
I'm at a loss...why is it telling me no mail profile defined? I'd be most grateful for any help if anybody else has run across this problem.

We have always on setup in our environment with read only replica. The primary database has 2 schema one is a dbo and other xyz. We have some store procs created in dbo schema and xyz schema. These store procs are being used by SSRS reports to retrieve the data (select only) no data changes will be made.
when we run the store proc from the read only server the storeprocs in the dbo schema run fine but xyz schema are failing with the message saying failed to update the database as this is a read only...
when I run a package from a command window using dtexec, the job immediately says success. DTExec: The package execution returned DTSER_SUCCESS (0). Started: 3:37:41 PM Finished: 3:37:43 PM Elapsed: 2.719 seconds
However the Job is still in th agent and the status is executing. The implications of this are not good. Is this how the sql server agent job task is supposed to work by design.
I am trying to copy a database from our company's external SQL Server(production) to our local SQL Server(development). The Copy Database wizard fails on the step "Execute SQL Server Agent Job". Following is the error in the log file.. Please advise
InnerException-->An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.

I have set up a locahost site in IIS using the "Configure Web Synchronization Wizard". One of the first test I was asked to do was to open a broweser and browse to http://localhost/MobileTest/sqlcesa30.dll
If all is well I should get a web page with the following line:
SQL Server Mobile Server Agent 3.0
But unfortunately I get an error stating : "The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the processing of your request. Please refer to the event log for more detail information. Please contact the server administrator for assistance."
I checekd the Event log and found this error related the IIS launch process on my machine.
DCOM got error "Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password. " and was unable to logon .IWAM_Rataq in order to run the server:
where Rataq is the name of my machine. Could my IWAM_Rataq account be corrupted, my other sites on the machine work.
Infact if i put in a Test.htm page in the virtual directory MobileTest I am able to browse to the page.
Can the Account be re-set? is there another problem that I am not aware of. I have Norton Internet 2006 running could that be the reason? Could Norton be blocking the dll from loading? But the event log states it is a Account error.
Any ideas why this might occur? any help is always appreciated
I have created and deployed my first report. It renders fine for me and the other database admin. When others attempt to view it, we get the error
Query execution failed for data set 'periods'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand), For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
Initially, We created a local group on the machine that hosts both the database and webserver and added the individuals to that group. Then, within SRS Report manager, we added that group to the Browswer role of the report. The error message was slightly different, in that it couldn't even open the Datasource.
We then added an individual to the database as dbreader, and got the above message. It apprently is starting to render, and when it encounters the first query (dataset "periods", which populates a drop down list for a parameter), it chokes. BTW, the Periods dataset executes a stored procedure dbo.Period_List that has no parameters. It returns a list of reporting periods.
I could not figure out how to "enable remote errors" or find an error log on the server. The C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesLogFiles Log files did not appear to record any errors.
