I have an SSIS Package that as part of the process uses a File System Task to move a file to an archive folder.
The Source is a variable from a For Each Loop. The Destination is a File Connection with the connection string set to a Variable. The variable is static assigned in dev, and pulled from a package config when deployed.
Everything works in VS in the dev environment. I deploy to SQL Server and schedule with a SQL Job. Job fails. Immediately, I think it's a permissions issue but my Proxy has Modify to the destination and read on the source.
I then rewrite the package so the move file is done in a script task using system.io. Deploy that and it works with the same proxy account on the job, so it's not a permissions issue.
I'm happy it works, but want to know why it failed before.
The error I got when it failed was, "File or Directory "\destinationpath" represented by connection "archiveconnectioname" does not exist."
Has anyone any ideas?

I have a application (. Exe) file,
At the time of running, it is asking the password to process.
My task is to run that exe file using SSIS package and pass the static password at the runtime.
Kindly help me to resolve my issue.
It is a matter of making the Arguments as an expression. In that expression you can pass the entire command line string including the password. This when you expose it via Package Configuration, it can then be made dynamic. Here is a link that shows how a SQL Server Package is used to zip a file with password which you can use to tweak for your package - SSIS: How to Compress/Zip your file using 7-Zip?
We are trying to configure a deployment of ASP.NET application using Octopus deploy.
All is working fine, but sometimes the step fails while trying to overwrite files saying the the file is already locked by some other process.
We already stop IIS before the deployment starts, so not sure what we can try here.
Sometimes the error is in the application customlog folder(txt files), sometimes its in the bin folder for some dll etc.
Exact error is:
*Unable to copy the package to the specified directory 'D:\Apps\XYZ_Stage'. One or more files in the directory may be locked by another process. You could use a PreDeploy.ps1 script to stop any processes that may be locking the file. Error details follow.
Access to the path 'D:\Apps\XYZ_Stage\bin\XYZ.Business.dll' is denied.
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'D:\Apps\XYZ_Stage\bin\ACA.Business.dll' is denied.*
Any suggestions?
If you're using Octopus 2.0 or higher, you can leverage the "IIS web site and application pool" deployment option which causes Octopus Deploy to handle all the complexities of deploying to IIS without you performing manual steps.
Here's some information: http://docs.octopusdeploy.com/display/OD/IIS+Websites+and+Application+Pools
Hi im developping an ssis package that imports excel files (.xlsx) from an ftp server to a local folder then they are imported to a sql server table . I'm using a foreach mapping to the name of files. untill here all think work fine .
i added a system file task that move (or remvove) the files from the local directory .
this task failed , i have this error :
*Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrup*t
The hotfix to the .net runtime the fix appears to be https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/923028 shall fix the issue
I have an SSIS 2008 Package that imports some data and then writes out a text file to a local folder on the computer. Everything built, deployed and installed fine, and in my XML configuration file I have a property to set the location of the local folder. I also use an operating system Environment Variable to redirect the location of the XML Configuration file at run time. On my development machine I set the drop-off folder location to C:\Temp, but on the target computer I want this drop-off folder set to E:\SSIS\FileDropOff and I make that configuration setting change at install time. The setup for everything looks fine to me, configuration file looks ok, there were no warnings or errors in the validation check at install time, the Environment Variable is pointing to the right place, and the SSIS Package is installed in the SQL Server MSDB database.
The problem is when the SSIS Package runs on the target computer, it keeps writing the text file to C:\Temp. No matter what I do I can't seem to get it to write to the E:\SSIS\FileDropOff folder. It's like the SSIS Package is stuck on C:\Temp and is ignoring the the XML configuration file setting on the target machine. In the SQL Agent running the SSIS Package I even tried checking the box on the Job Step Properties screen, Data Sources tab and set the Connection String to E:\SSIS\FileDropOff and it still doesn't work.
Is there any place I could be missing where the SSIS Package is looking at C:\Temp? Could there be a cached value someplace that I am not aware of that forcing the package to stick on C:\Temp?
Thanks.
1.) Try restarting your SQL Agent Service. If I remember correctly, it caches environment variables.
2.) Try setting up a package variable and using that to set the connection string instead of the xml file directly.
I believe it's a common mistake when moving between environments (i.e., dev - test - prod) to forget to right click on your package in the new environment and select the latest XML config file. So what's happening is your package is still looking at the old XML config file. You need to right click, and choose to browse and open the one intended for the specific environment.
Make sense?
If you didn't do this you may have unintentionally overwritten your config file.
I have a .dtsx file (an SSIS package) that downloads files from an FTP server and imports data. It runs fine whenever I run it manually. However, when I schedule calling the package as a step in a SQL server agent job, it fails. The step it fails at is the one where I call a .bat file. The error in the job history viewer says this:
Error: 2009-05-26 12:52:25.64
Code: 0xC0029151 Source: Execute
batch file Execute Process Task
Description: In Executing
"D:\xxx\import.bat" "" at "", The
process exit code was "1" while the
expected was "0". End Error DTExec:
The package execution returned
DTSER_FAILURE (1).
I think it's a permissions issue, but I'm not sure how to resolve this. The job owner is an admin user, so I've verified they have permissions to the directory where the .bat file is located. I've tried going into Services and changing the "Log On As" option for SQL Server Agent, and neither option works (Local System Account and This Account). Does anyone have ideas as to what other permissions need to be adjusted in order to get this to work?
I tried executing just the batch file as a SQL Job step, and it gave more specifics. It showed that it failed when I was trying to call an executable, which was in the same directory as my .bat file, but not in the windows/system32 directory, which is where it was executing from.
I moved the executable to the system32 directory, but then I had no clue where my files were being downloaded to. Then I found that there's a property for the Execute Process Task (the one that executes the .bat) called WorkingDirectory. I set this to be the directory where the bat is located, moved the executable back into the same one as the .bat file, and it's now working as expected.
For me it was a permissions issue. Go to Environment --> Directories, then change Local directory to something the SQLAgentUser can access. I used C:\temp. Click the dropdown for Save, and choose "Set defaults".
Are you executing the SSIS job in the batch file, or is the batch file a step in the SSIS control flow?
I'm assuming the latter for this answer. What task are you using to execute the batch file (e.g. simple execute program task or a script task). If the latter, it looks like your batch file is actually failing on some step, not the SSIS script. I'd check the permissions of what your batch file is trying to access
In fact, it might be a better idea to rewrite the batch file as a script task in SSIS, because you'll get much better error reporting (it'll tell you which step in the script fails).
You could try executing the batch file using the runas command in a command window. If you try and execute it under the local system or network system account, it should give you a better error. If it does error, you can check the error level by going "echo %ERRORLEVEL%".
If it wasn't the latter, and you're executing the SSIS package via a batch file, why?
Are you possibly accessing a mapped drive in your .bat file? If so, you can't rely on the mapped drive from within the service, so you'd have to use UNC path.
I had the same error and I resolved it by logging on to the user account that runs the job, opened Coreftp site in question there, test the site access, made the change there (in my case, I had to reenter the new password) and now it works.
So yes, it is an issue of file access. This one is file access to the coreftp site in question.
