It does not execute and the status remains executing only .
What could be the problem .
H!
Very critical!!!! some body help..
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???
Thanks,

Hello everyone. I'm having a problem with the sql server agent occasionally not executing its scheduled jobs, and unless the sql server agent is restarted they will not execute according to their schedule. I've read many posts on people having problems with running a package manually and then not being able to run it in a job, although that is not my problem since these are jobs that have all run successfully historically, and only until the agent is restarted do they start working again. It is the strangest thing.....we have many different jobs on this server and all of them will just mysteriously stop being executed. Two other things of note, the agent and server processes both run on AD accounts, and we receive this error:
SQL Server Scheduled Job 'X' - Status: Failed - Invoked on: 2007-10-27 02:00:00 - Message: The job failed. Unable to determine if the owner (ADadacct) of job 'X' has server access (reason: Unable to connect to server - check SQL Server and SQL Server Agent errorlogs).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello,
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?
Thanks for help.

I'm trying to execute my package using schedule in SQL Server Agent, I've already tested my package by run it manually in Integration services and it works. The table created, the data from my flat file also inserted into the table correctly and the result return with success.
The question is why when I execute my package using SQL Server Agent, the SQL Server Agent keep executing my package like infinite loop until I stop the job. after I stop the job there is no error generated by sql server. Could you figured why this happen?? I've already tried to upgrade into SP2 and set the package protection level and still not get good result from it. thank you.
Hi all,
I have the "Northwind" database in my Sql Server Management Studio Express.
In my C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02 folder, I have the following 2 files:
(1) ListColumnValues (MS-DOS Batch File)
sqlcmd -S .sqlexpress -v DBName = "Northwind" CName = "CompanyName" TName =
"Shippers" -i c:prosseappschapter02ListListColumnVales.sql -o
c:prosseappschapter02ColumnValuesOut.rpt
(2) ListColumnValues (Microsoft SQL Server Query File)
USE $(Northwind)
GO
SELECT $(CompanyName) FROM $(Shippers)
GO
When I ran the following SQLcmd:
C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02>ListColumnValues.bat
I got the following "ColumnValuesOut.rpt" with error messages:
'Northwind' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near '$'.
'CompanyName' scripting variable not defined.
'Shippers' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near 'CompanyName'.
I copied these T-SQL statements from a book and I do not know how to correct them.
Please help and tell me how to correct these errors.
Thanks in advance,

I am able to run SSIS packages as SQL Server Agent jobs with a Control Flow items "File system task", if I move a file (test.txt) from a drive (c on the server (where SQL Agent jobs run) to a subdirectory on the same drive. But, if I try to move a file on a network drive, the package fail.
What I can do to solve this issue.

Hi everyone,
I just got assigned to help out with a couple of problems with the running of DTS packages using the SQL Server Agent, this is the problem and a list of what I've done so far:
There are 4 packages that:
a) Deletes all records from a table and then populates it using a flat file that contains that day's transactions.
b) Creates a report in Excel
c) Creates a summary report in Excel
d) Does a), b) and c) for another table.
All these packages are scheduled to run weekdays starting at 8:00 am, and they were owned by sa. Last month we had a massive change of passwords thanks to an audit and unfortunately the dba left without letting us know that password. After the massive change, these packages started failing with errors like:
The job failed. The Job was invoked by Schedule 18 (DLYINVDT_XLS). The last step to run was step 1 (DLYINVDT_XLS).
The job failed. The Job was invoked by Schedule 22 (AGAR830_dts). The last step to run was step 1 (AGAR830_dts)
Yesterday I went into all the packages and changed the connection properties from user sa to another user that has permission over the tables and ran the 4 of them at least 10 times each, both using my personal laptop and directly in the server (just wanted to check remote and local, even though I know it really has nothing to do with the execution that its always local to the server).
Now, the funny thing is that I came in this morning and guess what..... yeap, the packages failed, I can run them manually with NO problem at all, but if I run them using the SQL Server Agent then they just will not run.
At the time I was writing this I found out the password for sa, so now I'm using it but unfortunately no change, the errors now are :
The job failed. The Job was invoked by User sa. The last step to run was step 1 (AGAR830_dts)
I'm an informix dba and I started training myself in sql a couple of months ago so I'm confortable with what I'm doing, but at this point in time I'm about to throw something to the screen :) Since I can execute the packages manually then the users are happy, but I would really like to find out why the Agent is not working right.
Any help will be GREATLY appreciated

There is no SQL Agent forum so if this isn't the correct place please move this post.
Windows 2003 R2 x64 with SQL Server x64.
One of the steps in a SQL job I have setup requires me to run an exe. I can run this exe from the command line or by double-clicking it on this same server but when running it from a SQL job it does not run, the job just has the status 'executing' but does not do anything. I have enabled xp_cmdshell. I have also tried calling a bat file which then runs the exe and I have tried calling the bat file with SysWOW64cmd.exe. Same problem.
It seems to me the the operating system recognises the 32bit exe and runs it in that context but the SQL Agent thread keeps trying to run it as a 64bit exe and hence never gets anywhere. (My best guess)
Is there a way to force SQL job/steps to run an exe or bat file in a 32bit thread? Any other ideas.
Thanks
Scott
Hi,
I have an SSIS package that utilises a 3rd party ftp program to transfer files (over HTTPS). This software stores details in the users profile relating to addresses, user names and password for transfers. As this is the case the Package needs to be executed by the domain user who has the details set in their profile. The package needs to be executed at a scheduled interval - so I have set up an Agent job to do this, and have the the 'Run As' setting, as a proxy which maps to the required domain user.
The package works fine when executing manually when the required user is logged in. If, however, the user is not logged in - ie when the job kicks off at the schecduled time, the file transfer fails. On debugging I can see that the agent job does not load the user's profile -but instead uses the 'Default User' profile.
The job owner is set as the same domain user that the Run As setting for the step is set. The SQL Server Agent services runs as a different Domain user.
Has anyone else had similar problems - Are there any extra permissions I need to set?
cheers..
I have to execute a .bat file on a remote server (that is used to stop and start services of an appl). The remote server doesn't have SSIS,SSMS installed. I want to create a package on my desktop the uses Execute process task and execute the .bat file on the remote server and then schedule it using the SSMS.

Pl response immediately.
I'm trying to get a SSIS package to run as a SQL Server Agent job. The package uses a config file. When I try to add the config file to the job under the Configurations tab. When I click on the 'Add' button, I get the following error:
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'xp_availablemedia', database 'mssqlsystemresource', schema 'sys'.

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

Hi,
I have a web application using Stored Procedure (SP). I see that there's a SP taking long time to execute. I try to capture it by Profiler Tool, and find out that with the same SP on the same db with the same parameter. The duration of executing by my web app is far bigger than the duration of executing on SQl server management studio - query window
Please see the image through this url http://kyxao.net/127/ExecutionProblem.png
Any ideas for this issue?

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)
How can I do?
Thank

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe 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'm setting up a Maintenance Plan to do a backup for me in the night of my SQL Databases but before the backup starts I have created a SQL Server Agent Job that runs a DOS batch (.bat) file using CmdExec. The problem is I need this process to finish processing before the rest of the tasks run in the Maintenance Plan. It seems like SQL Server Agent Job Task tells the batch file to start running (and it runs fine) but it just continues to the next task and does not wait for it to finish.
Is there any way I can configure this to wait before proceeding?
Thanks, Mark
When adding an SSIS step to a SQL Server Agent job, when selecting the location of a config file, the dialog lets you select from the database server you're working with. If selecting the location of the package itself (when the source is File System), the dialog lets you select from the machine where Management Studio is sitting instead of from the database server. Is that intentional? And if so, why? Should I just use a fully qualified file name for the package location rather than one using a drive letter?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have an SSIS package designed to copy across a file from local machine to a location on the network.
The SSIS package works fine when I run it directly run it in the Designer, ie, it copies over the file to the network.
But when I run the package through the Job server agent, it fails giving me a validation error on the network path..
Does it have to do with the permissions of the User account used here? Could anyone please provide any information on this....
Thanks
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.
Hi again!
I would like to thank the 2 persons which I had an answer from my previous question first. Thanks a lot !
But, it didn't quite answer my question so I'll give a bit more info.
I would like to know if I can make a batch file, that excutes or starts an active script in SQL Server Agent (that is in SQL Enterprise Manager).
If I can, can you give me more info on how to do it (command line, parameters), a web site, anything that can help me to that.
If I cannot do that, let me know please.
Thanks a lot!
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,

I am using SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition.
I have a bunch of sql in a text file I would like to execute from my .net/c# program, (Mostly DDL and inserts I run via SSMSE when I create a new database) I would rather not go through the laborious process of opening the file, reading through line by line, concatenating strings, and sending it to the database. I would just like to say "here's a file of SQL, run it".
Any help would be awesome. Thanks.

I have been attempting to load a SQL Server table by extracting data from Oracle using a parameterized query. I need to retrieve the Oracle data from views where the key equals a specific value. The values are based on data from other Oracle tables.
I was able to create a file that contains 1 row for each key value in the syntax of "select .... from viewname where key = value". I'd like to be able to loop through the file, execute each statement, and load the resultant row(s) into a SQL Server table.
I looked at the ForEach container, but it appears to only list the files in a directory. I thought I was on the right track using the Execute SQL Task, but I could not figure out how to get the data loaded into SQL.
Any help would be greatly appreicated. Consider me an SSIS novice.
Thanks
