Scheduled DTS Packages Fail
Jun 25, 2002
I have 2 DTS packages that import data from an Access database that have recently started failing. They run fine manually in DTS, but not manually as a job. They get an "unspecified error." These were running fine, until we installed Outlook and started to add Outlook mail to SQL.
Originally, Administrator was the owner and that is how the jobs were run. We changed to SQLAdmin for the SQLAgent to start under, and I changed the owner of the jobs to SQLAdmin. This works for all jobs but these 2. I thought maybe SQLAdmin could not get to the Access database, but it can. I spell out the path for the database, I don't use any mappings. I recreated the jobs logged in as SQLAdmin, and they still do not work as jobs.
Any ideas are much appreciated!! Thanks in advance!!

I am trying to set up a DTS to transfer logging data from one server to another.
The record may already exist at the destination causing a primary key violation. I do not want this error to cause the entire DTS to fail.
When I execute the DTS I created by right clicking and selecting "Execute Package" it shows me 2 errors. Although there are 2 errors the rows that do not have a primary key violation are successfully transfered to the destination database.
Here are the 2 errors I see:
Error 1:
Error at Destination for Row number 97. Errors encountered so far in this task: 97.
The statement has been terminated.
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_event'. Cannot insert duplicate key object 'event'.
Error 2:
Error at Destination for Row number 198. Errors encountered so far in this task: 198.
The statement has been terminated.
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_eventDetail'. Cannot insert duplicate key object 'eventDetail'.
These errors make sense, there were 97 duplicate lines in the event table and 198 duplicates in the eventDetail table.
This is the behavior I want. New rows are copied to the destination database.
When I schedule the DTS as a Job in the Enterprise manager things change. When the DTS is executed as a Job (as opposed to me right clicking and selecting "Execute Package"), the job reports a failure and none of the new rows are transfered to the destination database.
Why does the DTS transfer the rows that do not violate the Primary Key constraint when I manually execute it and not when it is executed as a job?
How can I get the DTS to function as desired?
Thanks,
Andy

All my DTS scheduled Jobs fail after I installed SQL SP3. But if I run the DTS package from Enterprise Manager it executes successfully.
Here is one of the errors:
The job failed. The Job was invoked by Schedule 7 (dtsImportCustomers_0001). The last step to run was step 1 (dtsImportCustomers_0001).
and
Executed as user: SQLADM. DTSRun: Loading... Process Exit Code 1. The step failed.
Thanks for your help!

I recently changed the SA password on my SQL Server 6.5 installation and discovered that this had caused the Scheduled CmdExec Tasks (defined in SQL Executive) to fail with:
"Process Exit Code 1. Microsoft (R) SQLMaint Utility, Version 6.50.240 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation, 1995 - 1996 [Microsoft SQL-DMO] Error 4002: [SQL Server] Login failed"
Changing the password back to the original resolves the problem, but is a less than satisfactory solution.
Any advice on how I can change the SA password and allow CmdExec tasks to continue running would be gratefully appreciated.

Why is it that I can run my DTS package locally howeverv when I try to run it as a Job it always fails? I do realize that the sqladmin account is used to run the job and it has all the permissions needed.
Any suggestions?
Also if I kick the job off from my local system it states it cannot find the batch file that I am trying to run? Im running it on the server however it treats it like im running it locally?
Very frustrated..
Thanks

Today when I came into work, I noticed all of my jobs failed on a particular server. I tried to manually kick off the packages, but to no avail. Both the job history and the error message from the packages state a timeout error.
Any idea on this? Also, I have no problem running a query from query analyzer...even on a remote machine.
Any help would be appreciated

Hello all,
I'm running into a curious situation here and I was wondering if anyone had some ideas on directions to investigate.
To set up our situation, we are running SQL Server 2005 Standard edition on Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition for 64bit processor. In Dev, winver says V5.2 R2 and we're at SP1. I am told, but cannot verify that the rest of our environments (test, load, stage, prod) are patched to the same level. I do know they are all 64 bit processors and running the 64bit OS. The database servers are all at
Product version 9.00.3027.00
Product level SP2
edition Standard Edition (64-bit)
Our SSIS packages are deployed and stored in SQL server using dtsinstall. I do not know if the DBAs check the "Validate packages after installation." but I will assume they do not. Packages are invoked using dtexec in a manner like "D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server (x86)90DTSBinndtexec.exe" /sq MyPackage /ser MyServer
All of this has been working fine but we've now had two issues where our packages fail to validate. The first was a deployment to production. The same build had been applied to identical environments and processed fine there. However, one package of the 12 deployed to production failed to validate as the built-in Audit dataflow component decided the length for the audit name is not valid for the specified lineage item. We attributed that to a fluke run as we could not reproduce the issue.
Yesterday a different package ran in our test environment. It failed out due to data issues but the important thing is the package actually passed validation and failed at run-time due to bad data. The testers corrected the data issues and this morning when the package (no code changes made to it) was reran it failed to validate with
'The metadata for "[dbo].[MY_TABLE]" cannot be retrieved. Make sure the object name is correct and the object exists.'
* The person invoking the package is a DBA so permissions shouldn't be an issue.
* The code has not changed between yesterday and today.
* The package's configurations in SQL Server have not changed
* The table does exist
To summarize, it validated yesterday and today it fails to validate with no changes to the code. I've asked the DBAs to reprocess the job and see whether the package blows up but in the meanwhile, any thoughts on things to look into? I'm less familar with using SQL Server as the package repository as my last place we used the file system exclusively so that and the possibility of 64bit quirkiness are my current guesses but they are just guesses.
Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

I have a parent package and three child packages.
In all packages they make connections to a SQL 2005 db which sits on the same instance as which the packages are being deployed.
In the Child packages these connections have the connection string set as a package property variable in Package configs and in the Parent package this variable exists correctly.
This variable in the Parent is itself defined in a PackageConfig which uses SQL Server as the holder for the configuration.
When I deploy the packages the connections to in the child packages fail, one connection by timing out, another with an acquire connection failure.
I have set the DelayValidation to false on all connections but it made no difference.
I have also increased the timeout to 180s but again still a failure.
When I deploy the parent package on its own it is successful, however when the child packages are deployed on their own these connections again fail to validate due to a timeout and connection failure, yet they are using the same connections defined in the parent.
The child packages are no larger than other single packags that I have deployed successfully with the same connection to the same server.
Is there anything special that I should be aware of regarding deployment of parent and child packages.

Is there any difference starting a DTS package manually or running as a scheduled task.
There is a DTS package that I start manually from my PC and runs for 40 minutes and during this time I cannot access Enterprise Manager.

Hi all - I'm having problems getting a package to run successfully to completion when I schedule it in SQL Server or as a batch file on the Windows scheduler. If I run the package interactively or run the batch file interactively that contains the DTSRUN command it runs to completion. Both packages start with a call to a batch file that FTPs files from a remote server and then they continue on by executing additional DTS packages within the running package. The owner of all the packages involved and is the same user that I am logged in as when running the packages interactively and is the same user that that SQL Agent and the Windows scheduler job runs under. The FTP step of each package does complete successfully but then I cannot trace where the package then hangs. The package never fails but rather it just continues in a Executing/Running state. This is getting extremely frustrating. Any insight in to this problem would be greatly appreciate.

I have a section of about 6 DTS packages that started failing recently. They all write to a network share using a UNC path. The failure coincides with a change to the account SQL Server and SQL Agent run under. I know security context is very important and I have verified the new service account they run under is a Domain account that can execute the DTS packages and has full permissions to the network share.
But when the Agent Job tries to run it fails everytime. Two of us have been looking at this and can't find the issue.
NOTE: I also made the service accout a Server Administrator (fixed server role) to make sure it wasn't a SQL permissions issue.
Anybody have any suggestions about where to look?

I have SQLServer 7, and have used Enterprise Manager to schedule local packages. The package that I'm trying to do is run a SQL script on a nightly basis. The problem that I'm having is that I need to be able to install the scheduled script customer box using an installer. I have access to execute command line programs in the installer. Do anyone know if you can schedule local packages (using SQL Scripts) from the command line? Or if a 3rd party application can do this. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I've tried to use sp_add_job and sp_add_jobschedule, but haven't been able to get them to work.
Thanks

Please help,
I have a DTS package that consist of approximately 50 steps which pulls data from an as400 and populates a SQL 7.0 database. The package works perfect flawlessly when executed manually but won't run when scheduled.
The DTS package starts but hangs when it tries to connect to the as400, this is where the problem lies. The preceeding steps work fine but they execute against the SQL 7.0 database. I have client access installed on the server and configured. I checked and made sure the SQL server agent service was started and running also,I just can't figure why it works fine manually,but not when scheduled.
Any help would be welcome...

Below is a migration plan that I've compiled to migrate SQL 2000 DTS packages to SSIS 2005. Once these DTS packages have been migrated i will need to create a job and schedule them in SQL 2005.
I would appreciate and feedback or questions on this migration plan.
Migration DTS 2000 packages to SSIS 2005:
1. Will need to save the current production DTS package as structure storage file. We do not have a UDL file. We set the data connections within each DTS package.
2. Go to Sql 2005 - ManagementLegacyData Transformation Services - right-click and open previous saved structure storage file.
3. Modify the DTS data creditentials to reflect the SQL 2005 connection data. Modify any SQL 2000 MAPI settings to utilize SQL 2005 new database mail. Save the package on SQL 2005.
4. After the modified DTS package has been updated and saved on SQL 2005, save this file as a structure storage file.
5. go to BIDS. Create a new SSIS project. Right-click on SSIS packages and select Migrate DTS 2000 package. This will migrate over the DTS 2000 package with the updated SQL 2005 data creditentails.
6. click on the package properties - protectionlevel and change it to dontsavesensitive.
7. right-click and select package configurations..., select to store data creditentials in xml format.
8. right-click on execute DTS 2000 package task, select Edit... and click on Load DTS2000 package internally. This will embed this task into the new SSIS package. Test the package. Continue if successful.
9. Use SSIS deployment functionality to move the package over to SQL 2005 Integration Services. Right-click on package and select Run Package, if successful, create a job and schedule it to run on SQL 2005 Agent.
10. When creating the Job under SQL Agent, change the Owner: of the job to reflect the owner of the new SSIS package. Schedule the job.
I've just coming up to speed on SSIS 2005. Therefore, this is what i've been able to piece together up to this point and I'm looking for some industry advice/feedback on whether or not this is a good migration plan. I need to provide a migration plan to management by 2/18. Thanks

I have a SQL Scheduled Job in SQL 2005 SP2 that executes a few different SSIS packages. When I update the SSIS Packages, SQL Agent runs the job and shows success; however, the underlying packages are not executed. The packages are located on the server but we are using UNC paths in the jobs since much of the time they are started manually from a remote workstation and the jobs seem to look at the initiating workstation's file server rather than that of the SQL Server. Is this a known issue?
Thank you,
Jennifer

Hi, all here,
Would please any expert here give me any guidance about what Data Mining tasks can be automated and scheduled via Integration Services Packages? Also, If we automated the tasks, can we also automatically save the results of the tasks somewhere? Like if we automate assessing the accuracy of a mining model, then we wanna know the mining model accuracy later, therefore, we need to save all these results from the automated actions. Is it possible to realize this?
Thanks a lot in advance for any guidance and help for this.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,

I've run into a problem with SSIS packages wherein tasks that write or copy files, or create or delete directories, quit execution without any hint of an error nor a failure message, when called from an ASP.NET 2.0 application running on any other machine than the one where the package was created from. By all indications it appeared to be an identity/permissions problem.
Our application involves a separate web server and database server. Both have SQL Server 2005 installed, but the application server originally only had Integration services. The packages are file system-deployed on the application server, and are called using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime methods. For all packages that involve file system tasks, the above problem occurs.
When the above packages are run using the command prompt (either DTEXEC or DTEXECUI) the packages execute just fine. This is expected since we are using an administrative account. However when a ShellExecute of the same command is called from ASP.NET, the same problem occurs.
I've tried giving administrative permissions to the ASPNET worker process user to no avail.
I have likewise attempted to use the SQL Server Agent job approach but that approach might not be acceptable for our clients since it means installing SQL Server 2005 Database services on the application server.
I have read the relevant threads in this forum, namely http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1044739&SiteID=1 and http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=927084&SiteID=1 but failed to find any solution appropriate for our set up.
Anybody got any idea on how to go about this?

We manage some SSIS servers, which has only SSIS and SSIS tools installed on them and not the sql server DB.
SSIS packages and configuration files are deployed on a NAS. We run the SSIS packages through DTEXEC by logging in to the server.
We want to allow developers to run their packages on their own on the server, but at the same time we dont want to give them physical access on the server i.e we do not want to add them into RDP users list on server properties. We want them to allow running their packages remotely on the server.
One way We could think of is by using powershell remoting and we are working on that. But is there any other way or any tool already present for the same.

Hi all
Our data management system currently runs DTS packages using DTSPKG.dll.
I am currently looking at the possibliity of replacing the DTS packages and SQL 2000 with DTSX packages using SSIS in SQL 2005.
Do I need a new dll? or will the current dtspkg.dll handle the new DTSX packages?
Many thanks in advance!

I'm trying to get a job to fail using a stored procedure command.
I have been using:

But this command only cancels the job, I want to the job to report back a failure.
Is there a sp_fail_job, or a sp_quit_job or something?

I have several packages that I download files using a sql task (I cmd shell out). I use sql task because the file names change everyday. what I want to know is how can I check to see if the file I downloaded exists either within the same task (preferred) or a task right after?? I want to fail the package instead of letting it get into the actual loading of the file where it now fails at.
I hope this makes sense.
