Hi, I have been searching through the posts hoping to find an answer to my problem. Most errors and problems seem to deal with Agent not being able to run packages because of permission issues.
My problem has to do with SQL Server Agent not finding the package to run. I have a proxy with a high enough level of permissions (SqlAgentOperatorRole).
The error message I get is:
Executed as user: ___/____. The package could not be found. The step failed.
The package is in a folder on our network. When I create the step I use the browser to go find and select the package. So why does it not find it at runtime? I can run it manually
My group is using 2005 for the first time. Any help you can provide would be very much appreciated.

Hi Im using project real framework and have BIDS installed on same server as SQL Server 2005, when I run from BIDs all good when I run from SQL Server agent via File system --the first package that master package calls fails I have double checked the environment variables in Project Real and all good because otherwise BIDs would have failed and of course in each package the expression data uses @[User::RootDir] to point to the package file path @[User::RootDir] + \LoadGroup_Dimensions_Daily.dtsx
the issue is the package under SQL Agent is ignoring @[User::RootDir] + \ and finding an old package path somewhere in Bids SLN metadata
Any clues how can refresh the metadata of the package for deployment
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.
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 ?
I'm using SSIS package to extract text file, and load into SQL Server. I test the SSIS package import manually, it works. Then I'm using SQL Server Agent to set up schedule. According to the log, the job agent work at the scheduled time, yet job agent throw out the error message.
Message1: The job failed. The Job was invoked by User sysAdmin. The last step to run was step 1 (Extract Data).
Message2: Executed as user: SQLSERVERsysAdmin. The package could not be loaded. The step failed.
Now I only have 1 step and set up "on success action" then "quite the reporting success". Any clue? Thanks
I have a SSIS package that I developed using Business Intelligence Development Studio. I imported it into our SQL Server database and it runs fine (when I connect to Integration Services within SQL Server Management Studio, and run the package). But when I created a SQL Server Agent job comprising 1 step, to run this package, it fails. The failing step attempts to read data from a MS Access 2000 DB into SQL Server 2005.
I added logging to the package, and got the following error logged to the Event Viewer: "The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "CurrentYearPCStats" failed with error code 0xC0202009."
I then created a new Operating System (CmdExec) step, calling DTEXEC with the command line copied from that generated by the SSIS step. The command line is: "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSBinnDTEXEC.EXE" /SQL "AFAReductionAFA Reduction Integration" /SERVER <ourservername> /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF
This failed with the same error in the Event Viewer, but for some reason also produced a meaningful error in the SQL Server Agent job's View History: Description: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '\<anotherservername>PCStatsliveCurrData.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data."
Please note that the SQL Server Agent runs using user id sqlservice, by default, and I have amended this user's Windows account to make it a Domain Admin.
Please let me know why I might get this error, when the package runs OK on its own.
I create a package in SSIS and I can run it without any problem in BI studio. However, if I deploy it to a sql agent package and run it thru sql agent job.. I keep getting an error one of lookup transfomation is invalide..
I don;t understadn I can run the package in debug mode but why i keep getting an error when I deploy to a sql agent job?
I would like to find out, if there is something I can implement/or should I need to implement to avoid running two concurrent processes of 1 SSIS Package. I mean by default, I will schedule the SSIS package to run utilizing SQL Server Agent. But How I avoid/prevent it to run concurrently or what do I need to setup where I only allow 1 instance of my package to run. Thanks.
When I try to run a DTSX package from SQL server agent, I get this error message:

All my other packages run fine. This one contains an FTP task and will not run, although it will run if I execute it through the visual studio.

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've been looking everywhere for a hint on how to tackle this, but can't get it to work.
I have an SSIS package that I am trying to run from SQL Server Agent.
I have been able to run it fine from the IDE, and from within the Integration Services system on my database server. However when I try to run the package via SQL Server Agent I get the following error: "Executed as user: MyDomainSQLServer. The package execution failed. The step failed."
The login name is the SQL Server service account, which is a domain account on our domain. The package is set with EncryptSensitiveWithPassword and the password is supplied on the command line via the /DECRYPT flag.
I am thinking that maybe there is a permissions problem with the service account, but I can't find any detailed information about what actual permissions this account requires. I have tried expanding its permissions, but continue to get this error.
How should the MyDomainSQLServer account be configured?
I am execute paakge correctly from my local machine through Agent and Command line. but when i try to execute in another server it fails. I am invoking and executing as an administrator. when i run through the command prompt or as an individual pacakge in file system it works fine.
I am exceuting the package with Protection level Don'tSaveAsSensitive.
I also want to know a way to fine out what the error is exactly.not just the View History. If i set the logging for the package where do i view them???
I have a problem running an SSIS package in a SQL Server job. The package runs fine if I run it from the MSDB location, but if I try to run the job it fails. The job is set to Run as: SQL Agent Service Account. The SQL Service Agent service runs as a domain user SQLExec. I have logged in as this user and run the SSIS package and it runs fine, but if I create a job with only this step it fails. There isn't much information about where there is a problem. Any ideas or ways to troubleshoot this problem would be very much appreciated.
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.)
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...
I have a need to force a package to run using the 32-bit runtime from the SQL Server Agent. The machine is a x64 unit. I'm having to use an ODBC driver to extract data from our ERP package that will only run in 32 bit. Any help would be appreciated.
I created a SSIS package using VS2005 with the "ProtectionLevel" set to "DontSaveSensitive" . I executed the package and it completed without an error. I then built the package and deployed it to the SSIS inside the folder "MSDB". I run the pakage in SSIS and it worked perfectly. Then I created a job in SQL Server Agent and have it run in a per-set schedule. It failed to run withthe following error:

The error mentioned the step in SSIS Package that requires to copy the backup of the OLAP database file "AS_STDM.abf" from the Source Server location (local processing server SRVSPOYDB01) to the Targer Server location (remote production server SVMPPODB01) "Svmppodb01OLAP DataSql DataBackUpAS_STDM.abf". This step worked in the SSIS(SRVSOUDB01) when executing there. Why it is not working in Sql Server Agent(SRVSOUDB01). It also works in VS 2005.
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?
Hello All, My database application has certain stored procedures which are scheduled to run at certain predefined interval (say once everyday). Now to implement this logic I have two options with me, first being to use the EXECUTE SQL TASK of the SSIS package and schedule it using the windows scheduler and the other is to use the SQL Server Agent Jobs and schedule it there itself. Now the current implementation is using the SSIS packages and I even know that the second approach of using the SQL Server Agents Job is better. The only thing I want to know is whether it makes sense to invest time in converting my SSIS packages (20 in all) to SQL Server Agent jobs or not. Can somebody briefly explain or give some pointers regarding the performance benefits of Agent Jobs over the SSIS packages.
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?
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!
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.
I try to run a job from SQL Server Agent to execute an SSIS package, but it always fails. However, if I execute the SSIS package directly, it will succeed.
The SQL Agent Job History shows "Unable to start execution of step 1 (reason: Error authenticating proxy DB1DB1_CREDENTIAL, system error: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.). The step failed."
P.S. DB1 is my server name, DB1_CREDENTIAL is the account creating the credential
The SQL Server Agent Error Log shows "[298] SQLServer Error: 22046, Impersonation error. [SQLSTATE 42000]"
I've created an account on OS and assigned it to a credential. Then, I created a proxy with the credential and then created the SQL Server Agent job with that proxy.
P.S. My SSIS package protection level is created as "Rely on server storage and roles for access control", because if it is set as "Do not save any sensitive data", package execution will fail even I run it directly.
How can I successfully run SSIS package from SQL Server Agent? Do I lose any setting steps?
I am having a strange error coming in SQL server 2005.
I had a DTS package developed in SQl server 2000. Then i had migrated that DTS package to SSIS package using Execute DTS 2000 package. The conversion is successfull.
Then when i manullt execute this package it runs successfully without giving any error. But then wheh i schedule a SQL server agent job for the same above SSIS package it fails giving me some cryptographic error as follows:

Not sure why is this happening.
Manually running the SSIS package from Visual studio does not gives error, but the same SSIS package when is been schedule from SQL server 2005's SQL server agent job it fails giving above error.
awhile back someone (i think it was darren) submitted a post which had a code example of using sql server agent stored procedures to execute a package. i searched for the post, but i didn't find it.
anyway, can someone please re-post that example or provide a similar one?
Hi guys, I 've been trying to run an integration services package as server agent scheduled task so that I dont have to manually execute the package every 2 hours. I was following how to guide in msdn to set up a server agant task for integration services package but I'm kind a lost. First of all when I ran the Management Studio and connected to the integration services the server agent does not show up it only shows me runing and stored packages. I can access to the server agent when I connect to the database engine but when I create a task and try to add a step to open a integration services package it does not give me the choice in type box. I couldn't figure out the problem. Is there a way to enable server agent to run under integration services too (not just under database engine) if databse engine is the only place server agents works , why dont I see the option to open a ssis package at adding a step to tasks? or is there a way to automate the process to run the package automatically without using the server agent at all?
Thanks, Burak
PS I was following the http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms139805.aspx article
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)
Sql server agent is running under a domain account that is a member of administrators and domain users amongst others, and the package is executed as the service account. Connecting to servers on the same domain works and when I run it from the msdb package store in ssis (ssis runs under the network service account ...) it will connect to the pop server as well. Permissions, fiddly proxies .. the answer's out there somewhere
Here is the following mind-numbing problem I have (and wished I did not have to experience)
A set of 2 SSIS packages is scheduled to run in a sql server agent job on the same server. Both packages use an environment variable that point to a package configuration file. In this file there are 2 connections, one to a sql server with a sql server user id and passwordn, another to an AS400 DB2. Both packages are deployed on the same server in SSIS server under MSDB sql storage, with package protection level set to 'rely on server storage and roles for access control'.
Today the connection to the As400 needed to change, it is now connected to another AS400 server. The packages have been modified to use the new connection. In the configuration file the old connection has been commented out and the new connection string was added, the connection itself was given a new more meaningfull name in the packages.
Running the packages from visual studio 2005 works. After testing I have deployed the packages to SSIS server in MSDB storage.
Now when I start the sql server agent job that runs these packages, the job quits with an error, in the history I see an error message that it failed to connect to the sql server with the given sql server user account.
When I the step in the sql server agent job properties for both packages, under the Tab 'Data sources' I see that it is using the new AS400 connection. I can also see the connectionstring for the sql server with the user id (but no password).
To make it possible for my packages to run (the users are waiting for the data) I have solved it like this:
- under the 'configurations' tab I have added the name of my package configuration file.
- i did this for both packages in both job steps
when I run the job , it works without problems.
Now , my question is: I have hardcoded the pathname for the package configuration file in my job. Instead of the package using the environment variable to find th epackage configuration file. I would prefer my packages , when in a sql server agent job to also use the environment variable. What can I do to make this happen?
I have a problem where I have an SSIS package (SQL Server 2005) that won't run properly from SQL Server Agent, but it runs fine when kicked off manually from Integration Services -> Run Package or when run in debug from Visual Studio.
The first step in the package checks for the existance of a file via a script task. The script looks like this...
Code Block Public Sub Main()
Dim TaskResult As Integer Dim ImportFile As String = CStr(Dts.Variables("BaseDirectory").Value) + CStr(Dts.Variables("ImportDirectory").Value) + CStr(Dts.Variables("ImportFile").Value)
If Dir(ImportFile) = "" Then Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Failure Else Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success End If
Return
End Sub
This script runs fine and the file is seen as expected when I run the package manually. But as a step in a SQL Server Agent job, it doesn't see the file.
The SQL Server Agent service is set to start up / log on as a Local System Account. I've also tried setting up a credential / proxy (using an account that I know can see and even move / rename the file) to run the job as but that didn't seem to help.
The package is being run from SQL Server (stored in MSDB) and is set to rely on SQL Server for sensitive information, so I don't think that's an issue; other packages are set up like this in terms of sensitive data and run fine.
Any ideas why my script can't "see" the file I'm looking at when it's kicked off by SQL Server agent? I've looked and looked...I can't seem to figure this out. I would really appreciate any help you might be able to offer up.
