I've tried finding an answer to this on this website but I don't see any. I'm running SQL Enterprise Manager v8.0 and have a job in the SQL server agent folder that won't run as scheduled nor will it run manually if I Right-Click and choose Start Job.
It's designed to run a DTS. I can run the DTS manually without errors but the job won't run it for me. I will try to provide as many details in this post as I can in hopes that someone who is more experienced at this can help me.
DTS DETAILS
The DTS is designed to transfer data from a table on one server and transfer it through a firewall to another server into a table on that server. Then delete the entries from the originating table. This works very well if I run it manually. The purpose of deleting entries from the web server is for security. Once the data in on the other side of the firewall it's safe.
The job however will not run either manually or from it's schedule. I've tried creating a new job and setting up a very simple schedule that runs daily every 2 minutes for example. I've played around with different times but no luck. So I will try and provide you with job details below:

I only have two SQL books to reference. This is a production fire to put out and I really need the help here as I am not a certified SQL guru.
I hope I have provided enough information here for someone to help. I'm happy to provide an email address for easier contact should you request it.
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 tried to ask the NT admin to login the SQL server and setup a scheduled job to "Shrink the db" for testing purpose.
I tried my ID even I'm not the NT admin, but setup as SQL server as sysadmin, setupadmin, processadmin.
Then the job start and got the error.
[298] SQLServer Error: 15404, Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'DOMAINMYNAME', error code 0x5. [SQLSTATE 42000] (ConnIsLoginSysAdmin)
I have no idea why that happen to NT admin. then I check the Services for SQL Agent under the control panel- admin tools- services.
It shows using the LOCALSYSTEM as login for the SQL Agent service.
Any one have any idea. what security requirement to run a job other than use 'sa' account, since we are using on Windows authenciation mode only.
I must be something is missing? hope some experts here to answer my question.
HELP! I have been banging my head against a brick wall on this one all this morning AAAAAAGGGHHH!
1. I have an SSIS package that runs a simple SQL script and then updates a few tables by downloading some XML of the web. It runs fine when I kick it off manually under SSMS.
2. I created a SQL Server Agent job to run it every day. This always fails. The error information in the log is useless ("Executed as user: domainuser. The package execution failed. The step failed." - I had already figured that out!). It fails almost straight away, and when I enable logging for the SSIS package, no info is ever logged (text file, windows event log, whatever).
3. Out of desperation I have changed Agent to run under the same domain user account that I created the package with. No use.
My questions:
1. How can I get more detailed logging from SQL Server Agent?
2 Any ideas about why it's failing in the first place.
We are not certain if this has happened due to the SSIS FTP Task, but incidently the Excel file that is being copied from the FTP site using an SSIS FTP Task got corrupted a couple hours after the package was scheduled as a SQL Server Agent Job on SQL Server 2005.
I had a SQL Server 2000 DTS package doing the same thing, but it was never an issue then. I was using the FTP Task there along with an Excel Data source in that and has been working for a couple years atleast with never any corruption related issues.
In the SSIS SQL Server 2005 package I am using an FTP Task with an Excel Connection Manager and Excel source and the Excel file got corrupted within a couple hours of the package being scheduled as a SQL Server Agent job.
Has anyone experienced this issue? Any inputs will be appreciated.
Just as an fyi, the excel file has a lot of vlookups.
I just wonder if it is possible to run a scheduled task from a SQL Server 6.5 Client. Whenever I would try to run a scheduled task from a SQL Server Client a would get the error message that says "The SQLExecutive service is not currently running on server 'POFDS1099'. This prevents task 'ACORS2 FS90 People Pull' from being run", but when I would try to go the server itself, the service is runnning. Can anybody please tell me what could be the possible cause of this or perhaps 6.5 doesn't really support running scheduled task using SQL Server client. Thanks. By the way, I also have SQL 2000 Client running on my local.
It is SQL server 7. Scheduled jobs were running fine until the hard drive crasked. Replace the hard drive and restored the dabases. However, all the scheduled jobs cannot run. I created new jobs using database maintenance plan and it still doesn't work. the same error occurs when viewing the Job history.
sqlmaint.exe failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 22029). The step failed.
However, if I create a job by right click on the database and select backup database. This job runs fine.
What should I do to make jobs created by the database maintenance plan running again?
If a job is currently running and I want to disable it so that it does not run as scheduled for the following night, will it disrupt the current process?
Hi, I ahve attached the bmp doc that will show my screen snapshot. My SQL server Agent service indicator is not showing green as like other server. I have started the serice and running fine. I don't have any problem running the job. My curious is why that indicator is not showing up. Thanks, Ravi
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "'I:MyFolderMyRptsMyApplicationMyDatabase.mdb' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.".
The above path "I:...." is mapped on the server that SQL Server is running on.
This package runs with NO problems in MS Visual Studio.
I have created a stored procedure for a routine task to be performed periodically in my application. Say, i want to execute my stored procedure at 12:00 AM daily.
How can I add my stored procedure to the SQL server agent jobs??
Hi. I was wondering if anyone has ever had a problem where nothing seems to be wrong with the server, and SQL Server Agent is up and running, but jobs fail. We had a job run at midnight, and it was the last successful run. Every job failed after that, with an error stating "Unable to retrieve steps for job..." There doesn't seem to be any reason for the problem. The jobs were kicked off manually and they all ran.
The only other error messages we could find were in the Application Event Viewer on the server. But the first error happened days ago and said this: "The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( .NET Runtime ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Unable to open shim database version registry key - v2.0.50727.00000."
Since then, every few seconds this error occurred: "Windows cannot load extensible counter DLL MSSQLServerOLAPService, the first DWORD in data section is the Windows error code."
We turned off the performance monitor counters and that error stopped. But we still have no idea if that was the cause of the problem.
This isn't the first time we've had an issue with jobs failing because the steps couldn't be 'found', while SQL Server Agent was up and running.
I was working on some reports on SSRS. Now I cant view those reports coz I can not open report manager. I noticed that SQLSERVER and SQL Server agent has stopped running in my local machince. But Other services are running properly (SSIS, SSRS, SSAS). When I go to SQL Configuration manager and try to run them, I get the following error massege.
" The request failled or the service did not respond in a timely fashion. Consult the event log or other applicable error logs for details. "
So now I can not connect database engine in my local machine through management studio. When I try to do that, I get the following error massage.
"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. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)"
Also I can not access reportserver data base and reportservertemDB.
If I reinstall SQL Server again, what would happen? Would I still be able to use and view my old reports? Please can anyone help me to get this worked again correctly?
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.
Okay, i've got an ETL package which works flawless, we've created a scheduled job for it which also worked. This ETL accesses a flat file located on a server on a different location in the same domain.
Last week we start a migration to a new network, the location where the flat file is stored has already moved to the new domain but the SQL server agent is still on the old domain. There is a trust between the 2 domains, the network user from the old domain has been added on the server in the new domain where the flatfile is located.
If i run the etl package manually it works flawless, now if i run the etl using the SQL server agent it won't run anymore.
I get the following error:

Don't tell me its a problem related to the user that the SQL Server Agent is set to because its set to OldDomaindwh which is the same user i use to login on the server where i can manually run it without problems. The problem only occures when i run it using the SQL server agent which uses the same user to execute packages.
This is a very difficult problem i doubt anyone here will be able to crack this nut, but if they do i'll be very impressed because it would require a real smart network admin with SQL experiance to figure this one out...
Hi, I was wondering if anybody would be able to help me and realise by looking round that is a reasonably common problem, but it€™s starting to drive me mad now!!
I€™ve got an SSIS package which takes data from an excel spreadsheet and using a stored procedure updates a table in a database, before moving the spreadsheet to another folder once it finishes. This works fine when in the Business Intelligence Design Studio, but when I try to set it up to run from the SQL Server Agent I get nothing but problems. I€™ve had a look around various forums and seen that many people have had this problem and I€™ve followed advice that other people have given, but try as I might nothing will work for me.
Currently I€™m trying to go down the package configurations route. I€™ve enabled the use of package configurations in the development studio and specified the configuration to pick up the destinations, usernames and passwords of everything that I have in the Connection Managers. I then go to the SQL agent and as a step tell it to execute the SSIS package using the package configuration xml file that it has created. Both the SSIS package and the package configuration file are saved and been asked to run from the sql server I will be using. I then go to run the package and it thinks about it for a minute or so before falling over. The history then says the below:

The DestinationConnectionOLEDB is pointing at a database on the same server as where I have the SSIS package and configuration file stored. I€™ve gone into the xml file and noticed that the passwords aren€™t saved so I€™ve added the passwords manually into the file after everytime it says username=sa but this hasn€™t made a difference. I€™ve also made sure that the package is saved to dontsaveencrypted.
I€™ve gone through the following article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918760
and tried to use things such as credentials but these haven€™t helped either.
I€™m really not sure why its giving me such hassle, I have the SSIS package on the sql server, I have its package configuration on the same server, I have the databases it wants to access on the same server, I€™m using the sa account wherever I can to make sure I have no access / rights issues, so I really have no idea why this won€™t work. All I can think of is that the sql2k5svc account that the sql agent job then runs under doesn€™t have authority to get to the database or the package configuration file, but I€™ve added that account to have full control on the database that it will accessing, but again no joy. How do I change it so that another account can be used to run this, one that I know has all the authority required to access everything it should?? And why would the login for sa be failing when it€™s the highest level account??
I€™ve read so many different articles on this problem and tried to follow so many different resolutions that I really don€™t know how any of this is meant to work anymore!!
I'm tried to run the job that created from maintenance plan. It fail and give me the following message:
[298] SQLServer Error: 15404, Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'DOMAINMYNAME', error code 0x5. [SQLSTATE 42000] (ConnIsLoginSysAdmin)
We are using the Windows Autheniciaton mode only and my id is set as sysadmin, setadmin, processadmin in the server roles.
I don't why I can't run the job, I check the SQL agent services is login using LOCALSYSTEM.
I try to the NT admin account to login the box, but still getting the same error message.
I am new to installation of SQL Server 2005..I wanted to know while selecting Service Account Screen why Avoid running SQL Server Agent as the Local System account.????
I have setup a step in SQL Server Agent to run a SSIS package that I have created. However the step fails straight away and refers me to the history log, which doesnt seem to show what the problem is.
I've tried running the package manually through dtexec.exe and it runs through fine. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Hello, I have created a package that runs without problem. I run the package with the command dtexec /F "package_name.dtsx" > package_name.txt.
Then I run the same package from SQL Server Agent, everything is OK
Then, I tried to edit the command line to have the output file, but I got an error.
The command line is: dtexec /F "package_name.dtsx" MAXCONCURRENT "-1" / CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E > package_name.txt. (MAXCONCURRENT "-1" / CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E are created by default)
Folks, I have a DTS job that imports data from text files (specified as odbc connections) from a remote server into a sql table on the same SQL server that the job has been created on. The job runs fine if execute directly from the server. If I schedule the same job on the server (through jobs) executing under the same user, the job fails with..

How come it loses the path to the file when I dont run it directly? Cheers Mick
When I give job Id in filter of this query this will give job status of "Success" but actually my job is currently in executing stage. I want to get all jobs that are currently in executing status.
Use msdb go select distinct j.Name as "Job Name", --j.job_id, case j.enabled when 1 then 'Enable' when 0 then 'Disable'
My package is connecting to an external data provider using an OLEDB driver . The package runs fine in debug mode.When i tried to run the same from SQL server agent it failed  to aquire the connection. The OLEDB provider does not contain too much of information , ( connection string, initial catalog, blank user name and password).The same package executes successfully if i run using dtexec in BAT file.But if i use the dtexec in sql server job step as operating system command and try to run, the job will fail reporting " can not aquire the connection".
I recently installed standalone version of SQL 2014 Standard on my work computer. I used Access before but I want to use a SQL server instead.
We have a shared drive that a file gets deposited every day at midnight. I want to be able to get this file and import it to the server (its basically a list of names).
Here what I have done so far:
I created the database
Created the file and successfully imported data into it using the Import Data feature.
I saved the SSIS package
Scheduled an Agent Job for this package to run at certain time,daily
At first the jobs would fail with a Access is Denied. I added a user under Credentials with my network account ( have admin rights on the work computer).Also added a Proxy for the Credential user I made.
Jobs fail with a “Cannot open data file” error. I tried changing things here and there, but I can’t get it to work.
I'm trying to run a task that executes a script file (cmd). When i run it with in bids with my own users (domain admin) it works. When i start a cmd prompt and try to run the cmd file directly from the network location where it is it works (with my own rights and with the sql server agent user).
Now when i try to run in from smss > agent jobs > job and run job it never completes. Im not getting any error message either it just keeps on running on the step ??? It seems like a rights issue, but the account running the sql server agent is able to execute the cmd file directly from the command prompt.
There are no errors in any error logs anywhere and no error is displayed...
Ps. Im running the job step as a integration service pacgake.
I have created a package that extracts data from an Oracle 10g database into a database on SQL Server 2005 SP2.
This package run fine when run inside BIDS and also if run from DTExecUI or DTExec (This is done while logged in using the same domain account that runs both the SQL Service and the SQL Agent Service. This account is also a local admin on the box.)
When I try to schedule this with SQL Server Agent (running under the SQL Agent Service Account) it returns an MSDAORA error
"Oracle client and network components were not found"
The same error occurs if I try to use CmdExe step to try and execute the DTExec command.
The interesting part however is that I use a lower privaleged proxy account then
(a) Executing the package directly still fails but (b) Running a DTExec command will succed
Can anyone provide an explanation for this behaviour. While I can work around this "feature" by using the DTExec and a proxy account it does make the packages harder to configure/debug and defeats many of the configuration advantages provided by SSIS
I have one SSIS package that fails on occasion. And I can then run this in the job by itself after it fails and it runs fine. Any ideas? Any ideas on what is causing this. It is not every day but about once a week lately but it just happened again today to this is 2nd time in 4 days this has happened. It is always on this same part in the SSIS that it fails when it does fail. 4 times in last 2 weeks.
This step it is on here has a OLE DB - DB2 source and SQL server as destination. It does a couple data conversion, derived columns and then just copies the data from the db2 table to the sql server table.

I have an SSIS package which writes to a configured public MSMQ. When run directly through Visual Studio, file system or msdb it works fine (I guess these use me as the user). However, when I schedule it through an SQL Agent Job it fails with the following:
Failed to write message ... to the queue.
This seems like a permissions thing to me, but I've tried giving full control to everyone in the MSMQ permissions, also explicitly giving full control to the user that the agent job executes as. Neither made a difference.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Tony Vaughan.
Hi, I need to write a script to run an automation in MS SQL 2005. It will run every 10 hours. What the script will do is just import a .cvs file into a database table. Can someone let me know how can I acheive this? Thanks in advanced.
