Error when execute a package from SQL Server Agent

We have the next problem:
When we execute a package from a Job of SQL Server agent, it shows the success messege, but reviewing the results, the package didnt do all the tasks.
When we run it mannually by MSIS the package, it shows the success message and it works fine.
The workflow of the package is :
1) Shrink the databases (executing a sql file)
2) Backup the databases (Back up Database task of MSIS)
3) Rename the files to .BAK extension (by the Foreach loop container and fyle system task)
4) Execute command to compress the it (by a .bat)
5) Move the compress file to another location  (by another Foreach loop)
Manually run correct, but when is a a SQL AGent Job that execute the package it does only the first 2 steps.
we are ussing Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP1) - 10.50.2500.0 (X64) Jun 17 2011 00:54:03 Copyright (coffee) Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 <X64> (Build 7601: Service Pack 1)

Can you check if account running package has proper access. You may need to define a proxy account for that.

    I checked the filename so it must be the XML format it's complaining about.

    Thank you, pituach.
    I tried running the package using just my c drive without partition, C:\Nbr_Rolls.dtsx, but still getting the same
    error. I do not see any option on this site to post my package. I know it's not the path that's the issue. Our support desk already fixed that because I was getting a different message before.

  • Executing SSIS packages through SQL Server Jobs.

    Hi,
    I have an SSIS package which generates xml and text files and ftps it to an ftp site. When i run the package from BIDS it works successfully but when i run it from a job it fails. My SSIS package connects to DB server A and though i'm creating a job on DB
    server A but my folder structure and the package resides in server B from where i'm connecting to DB server A through Management Studio. I'm using File system in SQL server Agent Job to call the package. When i execute the job i get following error:

    Hi Christa Kurschat,
    I'm running the job under proxy account. And that account has sysadmin permissions.
    I used following script to create proxy account and run my package under that account:
    I. Create job executor account
    Highlight Security->New Login, say to make login as devlogin, type your password, default database can be your target database.
    Server roles: check �sysadmin�
    User mapping: your target database
    Msdb database: you make sure to include
    SQLAgentUserRole, SQLAgentReaderRole,  SQLAgentOperatorRole
    Then click OK
    II. Create SQL proxy account and associate proxy account with job executor account
    Here is the code and run it the query window.
    Use master
    CREATE CREDENTIAL [MyCredential] WITH IDENTITY = 'yourdomain\myWindowAccount', secret = 'WindowLoginPassword'
    Use msdb
    Sp_add_proxy @proxy_name='MyProxy', @credential_name='MyCredential'
    Sp_grant_login_to_proxy @login_name=' devlogin', @proxy_name='MyProxy'
    Sp_grant_proxy_to_subsystem @proxy_name='MyProxy', @subsystem_name='SSIS'
    III. Create SSIS package
    In MS SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio, you use job executor account devlogin to create the SSIS package (DTS) and make sure you can execute this package
    in SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio. Compile/build this package.
    IV. Create the job, schedule the job and run the job
    In SQL Server Management Studio, highlight SQL Server Agent -> Start. Highlight Job ->New Job�, name it , myJob.
    Under Steps, New Step, name it, Step1,
    Type: SQL Server Integration Service Package
    Run as: myProxy
    Package source: File System
    Browse to select your package file xxx.dtsx
    Click Ok
    Schedule your job and enable it
    I followed these steps.
    Thanks,

    Are you sure that you are running the same package via .NET which works fine from Visual Studio?
    By reading error message, I can say that you have copied OLEDB task from another package OR you have deleted one OLEDB connection manager. Now when package is run this task tries to use the connection manager and not found thus throws error message.
    Open all OLEDB destination tasks and you find connection manager missing. Connection Manager name should be provided there

  • Whats the difference between executing a package from SQL and Visual Studio?

    Hi,
    We have a package that is currently failing to run when deployed to SQL. This has been tried from a schedule and also executed manually both are failing.
    I have tried from Visual studio running on various machines (windows 8, server 2012) and in all cases run perfectly.
    I am trying to understand the differences between deploying to SQL and running from VS so maybe I can figure out why this is happening.
    I have the following errors when I run from SQL.
    DTS_E_PROCESSINPUTFAILED - all errors like this point to the 'Sort' tasks in the script
    dts_e_processinputerror not enough storage is available
    I have tested in four environments and all fail from SQL but not from VS!
    Last night I tried from my laptop and executed the package from SQL - it didn't fail but was still running in the morning so I terminated. Note this takes around 20 mins running from VS! why would it be so quick from VS but fail or take so long on SQL?
    The test running at the moment is on a server with dynamic memory currently at 14GB. I decreased SQLs RAM to 4GB and it hasn't failed yet but has been running for two hours. Before changing this the package failed after a short time.
    I thought it may have something to do with running from a virtual machine but doesn't explain why it couldn't run locally on my laptop.
    All ideas welcome :) Many thanks,
    Davina

    I will try to address issues one by one
    The error doesn't seems to be related to SSISDB configuration mode. It may be because of
    Change in package definition (please confirm that the package which you are running on your laptop is the same on your msdb? - reload your SQL package from MSDB in BIDS/SSDT and recreate your source and destination components)
    As your error message shows, "not enough memory available" (may be because of multicast)  - Usually you can override this error by restarting SQL Server [not an optimal solution but it work & if that work it shows that your package fills
    the memory - Keep an eye on task manager]
    Make sure that your statics on table are updated [run EXEC sp_updatestastics] 
    Make sure your indexes are not de-fragmented [run rebuild indexes]
    If you are dealing with many rows may be 40000 * 12 (because of multicast) = 4,800,000 rows the try to separate package. 
    Check your excel file format/column data type is correct
    Check user permission who is running the job has required permission on folder/file.
    Understand that sort is a blocking transformation and it requires all your data in memory before it sorts. so, if there are large number of rows then your complete memory will be occupied. 
    Difference between Visual Studio & BIDS/SSDT
    Nothing much, other than BIDS runs on 32 bit while jobs on 64 bit (but there run time environment are configurable, though) 
    There shouldn't be any performance difference until your
    package is on network location because transferring data to the network may slow the package. If package runs on SQL Server it uses SQL buffer pool to fetch data via SQL statement and then SSIS works on its own memory allotment. 
    Hope this will help you to understand and fix the issue.
    Glad to help! Please remember to accept the answer if you found it helpful. It will be useful for future readers having same issue.

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

    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.

    If the variables are fine, then I think it is very likely that this is security related. Since the Agent is running under the local system account, have you verified that the local account can access the file? When you tried the proxy account, are you positive that it was set up properly, and that the account had the permissions to read the file?
    Another thing to check - is this a local file or is on another computer? If it is on another computer, make sure you are using a UNC path and not a mapped drive.

  • Can't launch executable from SQL Server Agent Job

    I'm trying to launch an .exe from SQL Server Agent Job and basically nothing happens. I created a job, with 1 step, type is Operating System (CmdExec), run as sql agent service account, and in the command box I typed "start notepad" (no quotes). The job owner is set to administrator. I manually start the job, it processes successfully yet notepad does not launch. I've tried with other .exe's and result is the same. Any advice? Thanks!

    I tried several things and not just with notepad, I tried a couple other small executables. I've tried:
    c:\notepad       --(I copied it to c:\ thinking it maybe it's not finding the file.)
    c:\notepad.exe
    notepad.exe
    start notepad
    start notepad.exe
    and also launching it from a batch file.
    If I use just notepad the job hangs saying it's executing and I have to stop it. If I use start notepad it comes back as executed but actually nothing happens, ie, notepad does not launch. I've tried different security settings within SQL Server (ie assigning all available default roles to the login at the same time and individually one at a time) with identical results. SQL Server is loging in with local administrator priviledges and so is SQL Server Agent. My settings are the default installation settings (for Windows Server 2003 and SQL Server 2005) except that I read the BOL page "Configuring SQL Server Agent" which indicates the permissions needed for the following:
    Adjust memory quotas for a process
    Act as part of the operating system
    Bypass traverse checking
    Log on as a batch job
    Log on as a service
    Replace a process level token
    And they have been set. Still the same. BTW, I get the same result when trying to launch the file using xp_cmdshell with all the variations, and the proxy account for xp_cmdshell has been set to a login with administrator priviledges....
    I think it's some security setting in Windows Server, if only because I think I've tried all the settings within SQL Server...
    BTW, also, nothing is setup for Proxies under the SQL Server Agent node, but I don't think I should need to if I'm using the administrator level login...

  • Error when using Oracle Migration WorkBench (Sql Server 2k to Oracle 8i)

    I'm trying to migrate a Sql Server 2k database to an Oracle 8i schema using OMWB.

  • Memory error when executing package through SQL Server Agent.

    Hi!!
    I have a problem with a package (SSIS) when run on SQL Server Agent.
    The job is configured
    with the proxy and the account has the
    required privileges. Runs perfectly
    if the job runs manually, but if I let it
    run on schedule I get a memory error.
    Also if I run the
    package through DTExec.exe or VS2008,
    everything runs smoothly.
    I am using SQL2008R2.
    If someone has something similar happened

  • Error: Failed to acquire connection while exporting a file using SSIS package through SQl Server Agent job.

    Hi Team,
    I am running a sql server job which is loading data to a sharepoint document library.File is an excel format and is getting loaded
    when executed through SSDT solution .But when i am using an SQL Agent job to pick up the file it doesnt get the path and agent job fails with the error "Failed to acquire connection".I have deployed the SSIS Package through SQL Server 2012 deployment
    methodologies.
    I am not able to trace the error of loading data from a sharepoint library.library. Sql agent jobs works fine when i give local path.The
    account which is running the sql agent job is the same who has access to document library.I also tried to run the job through proxy account. I am using a xml configuraion to store my credentials.I am able to palce the same file to a network drive in the same
    server through sql server agent job. The only problem is when I am trying to load the file to a sharepoint folder.
    Thanks,
    Arsa..

    Is that the WebDAV method that you are suggesting here to map the n/w drive?
    Its kind of webdav but you will be using windows nw drive to store data
    yes, I am able to create the file to D: , but didn't check with the C:.
    Try with c:, as c: require special permisssions

  • Error trying to run SSIS Package via SQL Server Agent: DTExec: Could not set \Package.Variables[User::VarObjectDataSet].Properties[Value] value to System.Object

    Situation:
    SSIS Package designed in SQL Server 2012 - SQL Server Data Tools
    Windows 7 - 64 bit.
    The package (32 bit) extracts data from a SQL Server db to an Excel Output file, via an OLE DB connection.
    It uses 3 package variables:
    *) SQLCommand (String) to specify the SQL Statement to be executed by the package
    Property path: \Package.Variables[User::ExcelOutputFile].Properties[Value]
    Value: f:\Output Data.xls
    *) EXCELOutputFIle (String) to specify path and filename of the Excel output file
    Property path: \Package.Variables[User::SQLCommand].Properties[Value]
    Value: select * from CartOrder
    *) VarObjectDataSet (Object) to hold the data returned by SQL Server)
    Property path: \Package.Variables[User::VarObjectDataSet].Properties[Value]
    Value: System.Object
    It consists out of 2 components:
    *) Execute SQL Task: executes the SQL Statement passed on via a package variable. The resultng rows are stored in the package variable VarObjectDataSet
    *) Script Task: creates the physical output file and iterates VarObjectDataSet to populate the Excel file.
    Outcome and issue:The package runs perfectly fine both in SQL Server Data Tools itself and in DTEXECUI.
    However, whenever I run it via SQL Server Agent (with 32 bit runtime option set), it returns the errror message below.
    This package contains 3 package variables but the error stating that a package variable can not be set, pops up for the VarObjectDataSet only.  This makes me wonder if it is uberhaupt possible to set the value of a package variable
    of type Object.
    Can anybody help me on this please ?

    Thank you very much in advance

    Hi Visakh,
    thank you for your reply.
    So, judging by your reply, not all package variables used inside a package need to be set a value for when run in DTEXEC ?
    I already tried that but my package ended up in error (something to do with "... invocation ...." and that error is anything but clearly documented. Judging by the error message itself, it looks like it could be just about anything. that is why I asked my
    first question about the object type package variable.
    Now, I will remove it from the 'set values' list and try another go cracking the unclear error-message " ... invocation ...". Does an error message about " ... invocation ..." ring any bells, now that we are talking about it here ?
    Thx in advance
    Jurgen
    Yes exactly
    You need to set values only forthem which needs to be controlled from outside the package
    Any variable which gets its value through expression set inside package or through a query inside execute sql task/script task can be ignored from DTExec
    Ok I've seen the invocation error mostly inside script task. This may be because some error inside script written in script task. If it appeared after you removed the variable then it may because some reference of variable existing within script task.

  • SQL Procedure working when run manually, not running from sql server agent

    I have a procedure that runs fine using the execute command in SSMS, however putting the same command in a job gives the following error.
    line 9, character 9, unexpected end of input
    The code takes a very long XML string in UTF-8 encoding and puts it into a single nvarchar(max) cell. Then puts this string into a XML cell in a different table, allowing me to query the individual parts of the XML code using the nodes function. I cannot put
    the data directly into a nvarchar cell due to encoding differences.
    I can't reproduce the string here as it is very very long.
    I'm just looking for ideas really as to where it might be going wrong.
    Here is what I know so far:
    The procedure runs without issue when executed manually
    I have checked permission issues, and that doesn't seem to be the problem. The agent runs under my own account and I am a sysadmin on the database
    I split the procedure into seperate parts to locate exactly where the problem is occuring. Once again the seperate procedures run fine when executed manually but an error occurs when run through SQL Server agent.
    When the query is run seperately through SQL Server Agent it gives a slightly different error. This leads me to believe it is an encoding issue. However I am getting the XML from a webpage and I can't change the encoding on the webpage.
    line 1, character 38, unable to switch the encoding
    I know this is a long shot since you can't replicate the issue but if anyone could give an idea as to where to start looking for an answer, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Here's how I'm taking the XML data and putting it into an nvarchar(max) column (Column Name TEXT):
    Select @url = 'http://....'
    EXEC @hr=sp_OACreate 'WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1',@win OUT
    IF @hr <> 0 EXEC sp_OAGetErrorInfo @win
    EXEC @hr=sp_OAMethod @win, 'Open',NULL,'GET',@url,'false'
    IF @hr <> 0 EXEC sp_OAGetErrorInfo @win
    EXEC @hr=sp_OAMethod @win,'Send'
    IF @hr <> 0 EXEC sp_OAGetErrorInfo @win
    INSERT #TextData(TEXT)
    EXEC @hr=sp_OAGetProperty @win,'ResponseText'
    IF @hr <> 0 EXEC sp_OAGetErrorInfo @win
    EXEC @hr=sp_OADestroy @win
    IF @hr <> 0 EXEC sp_OAGetErrorInfo @win

  • Not able to run the SSIS package in SQL Server Agent Job in SQL 2012

    Hi,
    I scheduled a job (SQL SERVER AGENT) which will call my SSIS package. This package will execute 5 packages in loop.

    What config I need to check here ? This job is not able to access the package stored in the folder.

    Thanks for your reply. I had created credentials and used this while creating the Proxy account. With the Proxy account I am able to execute the Job Successfully. Concern here is I used my NT account to create this Proxy. Suppose If I left from the
    current project if some one is coming to this project later they need to change the credential with their NT account and run the JOB? Is this right way or we an create any other account in common? If so how?

  • VBScript Runs Correctly From Command Prompt, But Not From SQL Server Agent Job

    I'm trying to run this script on my local machine to do some post-batch cleanup and it doesn't run correctly from the scheduled job (or when I invoke the job).
    Here's the script in question:
    Option Explicit
    Const filePath = "C:\Documents and Settings\jmunn\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Logs\"
    Const holdDays = 6
    main
    Sub Main()
    ClearArchive
    End Sub
    Sub ClearArchive()
    Dim fso 'As Scripting.FileSystemObject
    Dim fld 'As Scripting.Folder
    Dim f 'As Scripting.File
    Dim delLogName, delLogOut, delCtr
    Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set fld = fso.GetFolder(filePath)
    delLogName = filePath & "Nightly Backup - Backup Logs Deleted" & ".txt"
    Set delLogOut = fso.CreateTextFile(delLogName, True)
    delLogOut.WriteLine(delLogName)
    delLogOut.WriteLine("")
    delLogOut.WriteLine("-- The following log files were deleted on " & DateValue(Now()) & " at " & TimeValue(Now()))
    delLogOut.WriteLine("")
    delCtr = 0
    For Each f In fld.Files
    If Left(f.Name, 48) = "Nightly Backup - SQL Server Databases_Subplan_1_" And Right(LCase(f.Name), 4) = ".txt" Then
    If DateDiff("d", f.DateCreated, Date()) > holdDays Then
    delLogOut.WriteLine(f.Name)
    fso.DeleteFile f, True
    delCtr = delCtr + 1
    End If
    End If
    Next
    If delCtr = 0 Then
    delLogOut.WriteLine("No log files were deleted this run...")
    End If
    Set fld = Nothing
    Set fso = Nothing
    delLogOut.Close
    End Sub
    If I put the script in its own file and run it from the command prompt, it runs just fine. If the script runs from the SQL Server Agent job, the for-loop will delete the files correctly, but the filenames
    do not get written to the deletion log file and the counter does not get incremented, so according to the job log, nothing was deleted. Why does the script run differently from each invocation? It can't be a permission thing, the service that logs in has full
    access to the directory and the files do get deleted. Any ideas out there?
    Between this and other outstanding issues, I'm quickly losing faith in SQL Server.  >=o(
    Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

    Hi
    jrmunn
    i am trying to execute VB script to refresh my excel files.. using Vbscript file through SQL Agent job step.
    i have copied VBscript in a file with the extension RefreshExcel.vbs kept in C:\RefreshExcel.vbs
    Below is the script used inside the file (RefreshExcel.vbs)
    //---Script code-----------------------------------------------------------------
    Dim objXL, objWB
    Dim FileLocation, FileName
    On Error Resume Next
    'lgnConn = 1
    FileLocation = "F:\Reports\Reports"
    Set objXL = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
    objXL.DisplayAlerts = False
    FileName = "ReportFile1.xlsx"
    'MsgBox (FileLocation & "/" & FileName)
    Set objWB = objXL.Workbooks.Open(FileLocation & "/" & FileName)
    objWB.EnableConnections
    objXL.CalculateUntilAsyncQueriesDone
    objWB.RefreshAll
    objXL.CalculateUntilAsyncQueriesDone
    objWB.RefreshAll

    Now when i am trying to call this script file in SQL agent job step (as you mentioned )
    as Type -cmdExec(OperatingSystem)
    cscript "C:\RefreshExcel.vbs"
    Issue: job step executed succesfully ,,but without performing any refresh on the excel. So i am not understandig what is going wrong. the same script file work when i am calling it through a batch file (window scheuler task). But it doesnt support
    to run the file "when user is not logged in"
