Why Does My Pacakge Validate (and Run) Ok When Running Manually But Not When I Run It Through SQL Agent

May 19, 2006

Hi,

I have a set of packages, which I need to run through Sql Agent to automate it. This package runs Ok when I use DtexecUI but when I run it through SQl Agent with the same options it fails.

THe error it fails on is the old 0xC0202009, acquire connection failed error. The component on which it fails is an access database with the location and query fed by variables that pick up this from a table in a sql server database. THe access database is on a shared drive on a different machine

Does anyone have any idea as to why this should be happening



Thanks

Behavior Of Ssis Packages Running Under SSMS Manually Vs. Job Agent Automatically

Sep 5, 2007



I have a ssis package that has multiple large lookups without memory restriction. When running the package manually from SSMS on the same server it runs on when running automatically under the job agent, the package errors out when the server memory gets depleted by the loading of the large lookup reference data. One of the messages I get is
"An out-of-memory condition prevented the creation of the buffer object. "


Anyway, the package runs successfully when it runs automatically under the job agent.

I was curious as to why the above happens. Is that a bug or is the run time behavior different under these 2 environments by design.

SSIS Job Runs Great Manually, But Not Using SQL Agent

Oct 16, 2006

I am using SQL 2005.  I have created a SSIS package that basically executes another SSIS package (as part of a larger package) .  It runs fine in SSBIDS but will not run if I save it and schedule it using SQL Agent.   I should mention I am using a domain/admin account with SQL Agent, so I don't think that is the problem.

When I execute the job in SSBIDS, the Execute Package Utility window pops up, at which point I click on the Execute button, the job runs successfully and then I click on the close button. 

I suspect it is not running via SQL Agent because of the user intervention required to complete the task (i.e. clicking on execute as described above).  Is this correct?  If so, is there a way to override the requirement for any user intervention.  Or, could it be from something else?

 

 

Thanks for any insight.

SSIS Package Runs OK Manually But Not From SQL Server Agent...Permissions?

Dec 19, 2007

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.

Package Runs In BIDS, Manually In Mgmt. Studio, But Not Via Agent. Why???

All:
As the subject suggests I am encountering an error while running a package through an agent. Unfortunately the error does not provide much information for me to diagnose the problem, and hence the post.

I have pasted the error below and appreciate help from anyone.

Thank you,

Execute Sql Server Agent Job Task - Job Immediately Returns Success... However Agent Job Is Still Running???

Nov 30, 2006

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.



Thanks,

SSIS - Process Task Exit Code 4 - Via SQL Agent Scheduled Job Only - Works If Manually Started....

Oct 10, 2007

We have a Process Task component setup in a couple SSIS jobs to call a command batch file to support transfering a file via Secure FTP to other servers and the process works fine if we start the SQL Agent job manually, however when the job is started via the scheduler, it fails with an exit code of 4. Even though there is a proxy setup on the agent job, is there a different user account being invoked by the scheduler??? We're on 2005 SP1 Hotfix 1 (2153). Thanks

Some more info...have found that if we leave a login session open on the server (login is the proxy account) the process works. It appears the issue is associated with a need to render/create a command window for the command line/batch process to run in and without an active windows session it fails....would seem to be that a product setup to run on a server in a batch mode would be able to work without this...is this the case? if so, how? Thanks.

Is SQL Agent Running?

Apr 24, 2008

Hello everyone,
I recently ran across with a request to check if the SQL Server Agent is running on all the servers, I immediately thought about implementing that with SSIS, since I've accomplished such repetitive task before with using SSIS.
However, I'm unsure on how to do it, my first approach was creating a script that would create a table with all services running on the machine using the DOS "SC" command, now, I don't think that's going to do what I need, since it'll only give me a list with all the services installed on the machine, but there isn't a way to throw a where clause since I get a list of services and its attributes on a single field (See below).

I was wondering if anyone has ran across such request or if anyone has any ideas or suggestions.

This is what I get on my table in a single field when I run the SC command into a # table.


SERVICE_NAME: SQLSERVERAGENT
DISPLAY_NAME: SQLSERVERAGENT
TYPE : 10 WIN32_OWN_PROCESS
STATE : 4 RUNNING
(STOPPABLE, NOT_PAUSABLE, ACCEPTS_SHUTDOWN)
WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)
SERVICE_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)
CHECKPOINT : 0x0
WAIT_HINT : 0x0


Thanks,

One thing to keep in mind, I have both, 2000 and 2005 servers on my environment. *

Xp_cmdshell Running As A Sql Agent Job

Feb 9, 2007

I have created a job that runs this code:

exec master..xp_cmdshell 'D:Trace_outputAuto_perfmonAutoperfmon.bat'

This runs fine as long as I place the counter.txt file in the windowssystem32 dir.

The bat file has this code:


typeperf -cf counter.txt -o D:Trace_outputAuto_perfMonautoperf

This starts without any issues and i see typeperf.exe in the taskmanger.

The question i have is how can i stop this without having to go into taskmanager and killing typeperf.exe?

thanks for your time

Jan 10, 2006

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?

Running IS Package As SQL Agent Job

Aug 28, 2007



Hi,

I'm testing my IS package in my local PC which extracts data from one SQL Server table to another SQL Server database. In BIDS, it's running without error. I also tried it in cmd with DTExec /f "c:package.dts", it also ran ok. I tried assigning it in SQL Agent as job. with same command DTExec. This time, it ran successfully but got 0 rows. I dunno what went wrong, why suddenly it cannot get data from the source.

Any idea?

thanks!

Permission Issues Running DTS From Agent

Feb 28, 2005

We have a DTS which loads files using FTP to another
server. This will be used by app groups and will be run
via click of button using sp_start_job,

Somehow the userid running the job gets "not sysadmin to
run cmdshell.." Top fix that, we granted it to execute the
xp_cmdshell and also created a proxy account for SQL Agent
which is an admin on server and sql. However, still we get
permission errors like "...The needed permission is
missing to run command shell.." Please help . The DTS is
being called from SQl Agent job and we don't want an admin

Running SSIS Package Through SQL Agent

Jun 18, 2008

Hello,

I'm new here and hope you will be able to help me.

I have created several SSIS packages with Visual Studio 2005.
They all work fine in debug mode.
I have been able to make them work with a ODBC connection by using a ADO.NET connection.

Then I exported them to the file system in my SQL Server 2005 database and created a task in SQLAgent to run them.

All the packages using the ODBC connection fail with the following error :

Login failed for user XXX
Error : 18456; Severity : 14 , State : 8

This error is a password mismatch.

I tried several database users and checked the passwords multiple times.

It looks like SQL Agent is not able to retrieve the password although it is stocked in both the ODBC connection and the SSIS connection.

Can you help me?

Thanks,

Ares

Long Running Agent Jobs

Jan 4, 2008

I’m trying to write a script that will detect long running agent jobs.

Having looked at this article:
http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3500276

It appears that agent job job id’s don’t necessarily get stored in the programname of the sysprocesses table. This is true if the agent executes an os command. It also appears that job steps do not get stored in the sysjobhistory until the step is complete so that cannot be used accurately.

Does anyone know of an effective way to find if there are long running jobs other than these methods?

SQL Agent Jobs Running On Witness?

Jan 30, 2008



Hi,

I'm trying to configure mirroring with High Availability, Automatic Failover.

I know that all the jobs and maintenance plans need to be copied to the mirror server, and enabled if a mirror database takes over the principal role.

I wonder if it is a good solution to have all agent jobs on the Witness server (no jobs on principal and mirror). And all the jobs select the server where they should run (depending on current role).

One of the advantages of this approach would be that the jobs have to be created only once on the witness.

Will this solution work? What are the downsides of it?

Thanks,

Anna Sibirtseva.

Running Packages Through Sql Agent (best Practices)

Apr 5, 2007

Hi All

I have a meaty job that currently runs as a set of sql scripts under sql agent and I'm transferring this job to run as a SSIS package. I have managed to set it up so that it runs as a sql job (cheers guys!), and I'm watching the job run now, maxing out the CPU usage as it tries to run 10 different tasks at the same time . great stuff!

However, I've been thinking about how to view the progress of this job/package (the job only has one step; "run SSIS package"). With the current job as single scripts, in SQL agent you can view which step of the job you are at.... is it possible to somehow view which package task you're at (ideally with nice shiny yellow green and red updates like in debugging), or do you have to output each step result into a log file?

Oh, and another question! If i have a checkpoint in a package, and the package falls over, when the job is rerun through SQL agent, will it start at the checkpoint, or run from the start?

Thanks!

SQL Server Agent: Job Not Running As Scheduled

Mar 6, 2007

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:

JOB DETAILS
Name: TransferData
Enabled, Target = Local Server
Category: Uncategorized Local
Description: Execute package: TransferData

STEPS
ID: 1
Step Name: TransferData
Type: Operating System Command
On Success: Quit with Success
On Failure: Quit with Failure

PROPERTIES OF STEP
Step Name: TransferData
Type: Operating System Command (CmdExec)
Command: ( I have no idea what this translates to as I did not write it) DTSRun/~Z0xF6EE76ED6259A60AC370F465DE7F3095F4B37F7176C05B8E72E396DEBE60135E53ACFEDB00E1F216DD8EC8206782439BA435771E3C1E8A7A5D0DAE3F3AAA9F48BF08A9A9FA23C010A85573546F6B6B900323F76DC8A27EACAFD63904464DD5A9B28137

Nothing special in the advanced tab

SCHEDULES TAB
ID: 20
Name: TransferData
Enabled: No
Description: Occurs every 1 day(s), every 2 minute(s) between 12:00:00 AM and 11:59:59 PM
and is setup as Recurring
Nothing in Notifications Tab

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.

Thanks in advance for any assistance with this.

SQL Server Agent Running; Jobs Failing

Jul 9, 2007

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.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks!

Stopped Running SLQSERVER And SQL Server Agent

Oct 13, 2007

Hi All,

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?


Thanks

SSIS Package Hangs Running From SQL Agent Job

Oct 19, 2007

I have a number of packages that I have moved from an old server. Each package was scheduled with a SQL Agent job. On the old server everything ran fine. All of the packages run fine from VS, from DTEXECUI and I have tried one from the command line with DTEXEC and it worked.

When I run from the SQL Agent job, I don't get a failure, the package just hangs. I let one of the agent jobs sit for an hour with no progress. The package typically takes about 15 minutes to complete.

Below is the output from my package log up to the point that it hangs:

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!

Running ETL Package Using SQL Server Agent Over 2 Different Domains

Oct 3, 2007

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:

Executed as user: OIdDomaindwh. ...n 9.00.1399.06 for 32-bit Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1984-2005. All rights reserved. Started: 21:15:00 Error: 2007-10-02 21:15:02.10 Code: 0xC001401E Source: Rolmer_Product Connection manager "Flatfile Product" Description: The file name "\fs-cha-fs01dwhproduit.csv" specified in the connection was not valid.


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...


Good luck

Trouble Running SSIS Package From SQL Agent Job

Mar 6, 2008

Hello-

I'm trying to deploy a SSIS package and am having issues getting it to execute from a SQL Agent job. I've read this article http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=918760 over and over and although it's helpful I must still be missing something.

The SSIS package uses a configuration file for connection string information and the ProtectionLevel is set to DontSaveSensitive. I'm using a proxy account with the appropriate permissions. I can execute the package from SQL Management Studio and from dtexec.exe just fine. I even copied the command line out of the job and used that to execute it with dtexec.exe and it worked.

I'm not sure what to try next. It's like it's not even getting to the SSIS package. I have logging turned on in the package and I"m not getting back any errors from it. Any ideas? One thing that I think is strange is that the job is running on an instance of SQL but Integration Services doesn't seem to support instances. Could that be the issue?

I don't know what else to try at this point...any advice is greatly appreciated!
