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.
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.
I have a job that runs a SQL script and creates a flat file. I use an FTP task to send the file to a specific FTP site. The job work beautifully when is is completed in the development environment.
After I build the package and deploy on the SQL server and set it up to run as a job it will not work on the SQL server. The error appears to be in the FTP connection. I get two separate errors:
'Unable to connect to FTP Server using FTP Connection Manager' and
'An Error Occured in the requested FTP operation. Detailed error description: The Password was not allowed'
I've been executing a package and passing a parent variable to the child using package configurations but I'd now like to do this using a script task. The script task would then programmatically load the package and execute it.
How do I do this and still use the parent variable?
I've found examples of how to load a package but I haven't been able to find out how to I load it specifying the parent variables.
I think it's possible. MSDN shows the available methods but the example is for the base method.
I have created for each container to call all the packages in a folder like below, also created a variable.
Then I add execute package task inside of foreach container and selected file system in a location and in connection called currently creating package name finally in connection properties i added variable in expression which i created and mapped into for each loop container. I referred below link

All the packages are running but its not ending once all the packages executed its re run and continue the running process, how to stop once all the packages execute.
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.
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?
OK. I give up and need help. Hopefully it's something minor ...
I have a dataflow which returns email addresses to a recordset.
I pass this recordset into a ForEachLoop configuring the enumerator as (Foreach ADO Enumerator). I also map the email address as a variable with index 0.
I then have a Execute SQL task which receives this email address as a varchar variable (parameter 0) which I then use in my SQL command to limit the rows returned. I have commented out the where clause and returned all rows regardless of email address to try to troubleshoot this problem. In either event, I then use a resultset to store the query result of type object and result name 0.
I then pass this resultset into a script variable to start parsing the sql rows returned as type object. ( I assume this is the correct way to do this from other prior posts ...).
The script appears to throw an exception at the following line. I assume it's because I'm either not passing in the values properly or the query doesn't return anything. However, I am certain the query works as it executes just fine at the command prompt.
My intent is to email the query results to each email address with the following type of data by passing the parsed data from the script to a send mail task. Email works fine and sends out messages but the content is empty. I pass the parsed data as string values to the messagesource and define the messagesourcetype as a variable in the mail task.

Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
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!! Karen
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.
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?
Hi , I have an schedueled job which runs a DTS . This job is executing everyday at 2:00 Pm and it transfers data from oracle to the SQl server. In some cases data in Oracle is not ready at 2:00 , sometimes it is ready at 11:00 AM so what I need is to run that Scheduled job from an exe file . I can write a code to run the DTS jobs but the problem in this case is I will lose the History Information I have with my schedueled job.So I need to run The Scheduled job to kep the history . I researched the Internet and all I get is how to create a job but I dont have a clue how to run it . I'm using Visual basic 6 . Thanx .
My database resides on my ISP SQL server, in Colorado. My new data can be found as a TXT file on the C: drive of the shipping PC in my Florida office. I created a DTS package to import the data from the TXT file to a table in my database. The package works fine, until I schedule it to run. The package uses the UNC address to find the TXT file. As a result, I can go to any PC in my office and execute the package. But, when I schedule it to run unattended, it fails.
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.
I had got the below error when I execute a DELETE SQL query in SSIS Execute SQL Task :
Error: 0xC002F210 at DelAFKO, Execute SQL Task: Executing the query "DELETE FROM [CQMS_SAP].[dbo].[AFKO]" failed with the following error: "The transaction log for database 'CQMS_SAP' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
But my disk has large as more than 6 GB space, and I query the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases which return value as "NOTHING".
So this confused me, any one has any experience on this?
I'm looking for a way to refer to a package variable within any Transact-SQL code included in either an Execute SQL or Execute T-SQL task. If this can be done, I need to know the technique to use - whether it's something similar to a parameter placeholder question mark or something else.
FYI - I've been able to successfully execute Transact-SQL statements within the Execute SQL task, so I don't think the Execute T-SQL task is even necessary for this purpose.
I have created a package that do a file search on an AS400 box using activex scriptand UNC path to do the file search. When I run it locally, it's fine. When I run it on the server, it fails. The login setup for the sql server agent service and the job is the same and they both have admin rights.
In addition, I also have another package pointing to the same path, but the job is to create a text file to the UNC path. It works even when I schedule it.
May someone please help me to solve this problem ?
I have a package that has its source as an Oracle DB on another server. This package will feed data from that source to a SQL Server 2005 DB. So far, the package works fine if it is executed manually even in SQL Mgmt Studio. It's only failed when I tried it as a scheduled job. I guess I need to do "Package Configurations" which includes the UserID and password for accessing Oracle DB ... but I don't know how. Please help.
Regards,

I've managed to get the basics coded into my package. Nothing fancy, it is all quite literally embedded inside the package. No config files, parameters, variables, etc. I've imported the package into SSIS. I can right click on the package and select Run Package. The package fires off, validates, runs through the entire process, and completes successfully. However, when I set up the package to run as a scheduled task, it fails almost immediately with the following output.

Hello. I am using SQL Server Management Studio (SQL 2005) and created a daily backup job. Inside the job, i have an "Operating system" step to copy backuped up files onto another directory. However, the job kept on failing with an error "Executed as user ... Access is denied." With this error, how can i change the user used to execute the job? Thanks.
I'm new to SQL so this should be an easy question. All i want to do is create a recuring task. I want to copy data from one SQL server to another. I've created a package to accomplish this and when i execute it manually it works. What doesn't work is scheduling to execute a regular intervals. As a test i set it up to execute every minute every day (This however will change to once a day when i prove it works) and for some reason it never executes. Any ideas? By the way i created the package using the DTS export wizzard.
I created a scheduled task on SQL server 6.5 which is actually dump system DB.
The problem I have is the scheduled task did not run with no error messsage returned. I have tried to force it run in different schedule modes. Nothing happened. However I can dump system DB through SEM Backup/Restore which runs OK!
Any body has idea why scheduled task does not run ?
I'm using SSIS in Visual Studio 2012. My Execute SQL Task calls a Stored Procedure where I have a TRY-CATCH. Last week there was a problem and the CATCH was executed and logged an error to my error table, but for some reason the Execute SQL Task didn't fail. Is there a setting to make the Execute SQL Task fail when an SP encounters a failure?
I am using SQL 2005 SSIS. I am joining several large tables and then the move result into another table in the same database.
I would like know which method is faster:
Use Execute SQL Task to insert the result set to the target table
Use the Data Flow Task to insert the result set to the target table. (Use OLE DB source to execute SQL command and then use the SQL destination) Could you tell me why then other is slower?
I have a SQL Task that calls a stored procedure and returns an output parameter. The task fails with error "Value does not fall within the expected range." The Stored Procedure is defined as follows: Create Procedure [dbo].[TestOutputParms] @InParm INT , @OutParm INT OUTPUT as Set @OutParm = @InParm + 5 The task uses an OLEDB connection and has a source type of Direct Input. The SQL Statement is Exec TestOutputParms 7, ? output The parameter mapping is: Variable Name Direction Data Type Parameter Name User::OutParm Output LONG @OutParm
In the Control flow tab, I have an Execute SQL Task that outputs full Result set into a variable of an object type. Now how can I write the contents of the Full Result Set into a text file using Script Task. I also want to format the following way while I output into a file:
Column Name 1 : Column Value
Column Name 2: Column Value and so on
I tried writing the contents of the Object Variable into a file, but the file had an output of single word: System.__ComObject.
Code for Writing the Full Result Set into a Text File
Dim RSsqloutput as String = Dts.Variables("objVariable").Value.ToString
Dim strVal as String = "File completed on " & Now() & vbCrLf & "------------------------------------------------------" & vbCrLf
I have an application like fetching records from the DataBase(MS Access 2000) and results i have to use in Script Task. At present i have used the record fetching query,connection string in Script itself. I would like to use in Independently. Is there any Tools like (Control Flow Tools like Execute SQL Task) are there to fetch the result set from Acccess and can use the fetching results in Script Task....
I have a SSIS package contains an "Execute SQL Task". The SQL will raise error or succeed. However, it sounds the package won't pick up the raised error?
Or is it possible to conditional run other control flow items according the the status of SQL task execution?
I need to use FTP task in DTS ( or any other way), but the problem is, the source file name is not constant. It changes every day with a date extension appended to the file name, like PO_2002_6_12_PM.zip. How do I create a task task to grab this file daily as a scheduled task? Any help is appreciated. thanks. Di.
I think I have a basic question. Can someone tell me the command I can use to have a stored procedure run and generate output? This is for SQL 6.5.
I would like to schedule the sp_help_revdatabase stored procedure to run periodically and output it to a file. I think this is possible, but I haven't been able to come up with the syntax...
