I have SSIS package, where I'd like to do following:
in case, that I run it from Visual Studio and press STOP button, want to write information into my log table, that process was killed
same, but for situation, then .dtsx runs via dtexec, which runs via Windows scheduler - in case that runs longer than configured, Win Scheduler automatically kills to job
Don't you know if that's somehow possible?
Thanks

I am a beginner in SSIS, I want to SSIS Data Flow execute frequently after every 5 minutes.
1- Deploying the SSIS Package :
After you finish your SIS package development, you can deploy it to the server. There we can schedule and execute the package as well.
In Visual Studio, right-click on the project and select Deploy :
This will start the SSIS deployment wizard. Keep in mind this will deploy the entire project, with all packages included. If you want to deploy an individual package, you can right-click on the package itself and choose Deploy (since SSIS 2016).
In the first step of the wizard, we need to choose the destination (several steps are skipped since we started the wizard from Visual Studio). Enter the server name and make sure the SSIS catalog has already been created on that server. If you want, you can also create a folder to store the project in.
At the next step, you get an overview of the actions the wizard will take. Hit Deploy to start the deployment.
The deployment will go through a couple of steps:
The project has now been deployed to the server and you can find it in the catalog:
2- Executing an SSIS Package on the Server
Manually executing packages is one thing, but normally you will schedule packages so your ETL can run in a specific time windows (probably at night). The easiest option is SQL Server Agent. You can right-click on the Jobs node to create a new job:
In the General pane, enter a name for the job, choose an owner and optionally enter a description:
In the Steps pane, you can create a new job step :
In the job step configuration, you can enter a name for the step. Choose the SQL Server Integration Services Package type, enter the name of the server and select the package.
In the configuration tab, you can optionally set more properties, just like when executing a package manually. Click OK to save the job step. In the Schedules tab, you can define one or more schedule to execute the package on predefined points in time. Click New… to create a new schedule. In the schedule editor, you can choose between multiple types of schedules: daily, weekly or monthly. You can also schedule packages to run only once. In the example below we have scheduled the job to run every day at 1AM, except in the weekend.
In your case, set the Frequency to Daily, and set the value of Occurs once at to every 5 minutes when the job should run.
I have my GCP machine that is scheduled to switch on and run from 6hrs in the morning to 12hrs. I am trying to automate the script once the machine is on, so I am scheduling a job on 6:30 hrs.
But what I observed is that UIPath Robot doesn't automatically get connected unless I open an RDP session and then manually open UI Path Assistant to connect it with orchestrator.
I also tried to create a bat script and schedule it with windows startup. But that fails to run as well. To verify my startup script I added two commands:
<verification script sending mail on startup> && <UIPath Script>
I tested this script manually in RDP session and they did run sequentially as expected. But when I added it to auto-scheduling in gcp, only the first script actually ran (<verification script sending mail on startup>) and the second one (<UIPath Script>) just didn't.
Moreover I did put the bat file in Windows Startup Folder but again that also required me to sign into the system using RDP session for it to run.
From my understanding, the UIPath Script (XAML) in order to run needs the system to be switched on 24/7 and then it connects to orchestrator and then we can schedule the process based on the time, but then my maching will be idle for lots of ineffective hours.
Secondly, going by the .bat file to be as a startup script also fails as in order to run the script, it needs the user to be logged in which doesn't happen. Though other scripts such as .py files run smoothly so I lose here as well.
Finally scheduling my bat file through windows startup feature does work but then it's also of no use as for it to start also I need to open an RDP session and log in.
Does anyone know the workaround for this?
I am running SSIS packages on SQL Server 2016 and am trying to log events using Dts.Events.FireInformation and Dts.Events.FireWarning. While these do show in the local IDE progress section, they are not appearing in the SSISDB Logs (e.g. R-Click on a package / Select Reports / All Execution). I also tried Dts.Log() but that didn't write either. I've used logging in the past (circa 2008R2) to the old ssis logging table. I know I can use that but would rather keep these all in oneplace.
Logging level is "Basic" which should pump out both OnInformation and OnWarning.
I did look at this post on StackOverFlow which looks like it had a viable answer; however, the link to that answer is dead.
Is this just not possible to do or am I doing something wrong?
When the packages run in Visual Studio, the Information and Warning events are logged to both the Package Results tab as well as the Output window.
That data only gets recorded into the SSISDB if the server is the one running the packages.
I want to simply open an MS Access MDB file with task scheduler, but it just says "running" and leaves MS Access open in the background which I can only see in the task manager.
I have an AutoExec macro that does it's thing and then closes itself. Works fine opening the program manually, doesn't do anything when opened from task scheduler (Including clicking run on the task myself).
I've seen many ask this online, but have found no solutions.
Here's what I have in the Task Scheduler:
Program/Script: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\MSACCESS.EXE"
Add arguments (optional): C:\[TheDirectory]\SCServerData.mdb
I have other Task Scheduled .bat files that run with no problem.
Turns out it's quite simple actually. I just put the command in a batch file instead and run that with Task Scheduler. Seems to be working so far.
I've deployed a SSIS package to my SQL server.
I can run the package fine by connecting to Integration Services in SSMS and right clicking on it and choosing "Run Package"
However, if I schedule the package, it fails.
It tells me to check the logs for information on why, but there is nothing in there...
Any ideas?
(this is my first SSIS package by the way)
I would guess your package is doing something the SQl Server agent deosn't have the rights to do. Often it turns out that the location of file to be imported or the location where the file exported are in directories that are not open to the account that runs the SQL Server Agent.
I also agree woth Raj who said you really need to implement logging. You can;t expect to know why something fails six months down the road if you aren't recording the details of waht is happening with the package. SSIS pacakages can be hard to debug anyway, so you need those logs to know where to start looking.
You have to implement logging to get the details of the error.
In SQL Server Agent, create a new job, configure it to execute the package and under the logging tab, start logging.
Then run the package and you can read the log in the job history.
When you said you have scheduled a job, I assume you used SQL agent. In that case you can right click job and click View History and you can see the error related to job not to the package. For detail error you need to configure logging.
