Background
Created package in BIDS.
Deployed to SSMS
Package writes files to a CSV file in a network fileserver.
The default name of the package's flat file destination is $path\workcsvout.csv
Package derives filename from an expression
Issue
When I configure and run from SSMS, it fails with Error DFT -Extract to File:Error:Cannot open the datafile "........\DerivedFilename.
Troubleshooting
Verified the file exists in directory - used flat file destination temp filename, before derived filename - still failed
changed name to file it was trying to open - still failed
I am running job from my login in SSMS, via SSISDB - Projects - Package - .dtsx package - Execute
See pictures below and advise if more information is needed.
Thanks
Ensure Visual Studio isn't open after attempting to either run the package directly from the Integration Services Catalog as I have found that VS can hang onto a connection to the files you are writing to and it can throw similar errors.
Ensure the account configured for the package has sufficient permissions in all the areas it needs to write to.
After VS is closed and permissions are all set in step 2, try executing the package directly inside the Integration Services Catalog in SSMS. If this works, move to step 4. If this doesn't work, troubleshoot the errors and ensure security is all setup properly and you are executing the package with the same account.
If you are here, I will assume you want to schedule the package. Ensure that the owner is the same account used in step 2. Check the "Run As" account in Step in the job, if that account is not the same as step 2 then you either need to make it the same or give that account the same access as the account used in step 2.
I went through this troubleshooting process and it solved my issue. I also was building files on a general UNC file path like \servername\folder\folder without needing to do any local business with \servername\d$\folder\folder that other people recommend.
I would check to make sure that your SQL Server service account has full rights to the landing folder.
After experiencing the same issue as you, I finally checked the folder permissions that were created for our SQL Server service account. Come to find out that it was missing the "Full Control" and "Modify" folder permissions. Once I granted these to our service account, the issue went away.

Troubleshooting:
Can you try to create file on local and then move the file using File System Task.
I was trying to pump the data which is in csv file.
Closing the visual studio and closing the csv file which was opened in another machine resolved the problem

This issue was addressed in a prior post, and I have a very similar situation, however it is sufficiently different that a new post is justified.
I have an SSIS package with a For Each file loop. In Visual Studio 2017, the package behaves exactly as expected in debug mode. However, once I deploy the package to my SQL server and run it from there, I receive "The For Each file enumerator is empty. The For Each File enumerator did not find any files that matched the file pattern, or the specified directory is empty." The package itself exits with success, this error logged as a warning, and suffice to say, my target table remains empty.
Unlike the previous poster experiencing this issue, I have been using a UNC path for my source folder (values genericized):
I have validated that the SQL Account and SQL server itself have rights to my target share and files. I have changed the Integration Services service to use a known good domain account. I do not see any access denied errors, etc. What am I missing?
UNBELIEVABLE. Here is the answer. While I can run the SSIS package in dev from VS2017 on my workstation, once published to the SQL server, the job fails if I execute it from SSMS on my local workstation. However, the job succeeds if I run it from SSMS on the SQL server itself. Same domain, same accounts, same DNS. Ughh. I sure hope this saves someone a few gray hairs.
I have a custom EXE written in C# (I didn't write it). It retrieves data from MongoDB and writes six CSV files to the same folder that it resides in.
I can double-click on the EXE and run it -- I do need to run it as an administrator. I have its administrator privileges set in the properties, so it always runs as administrator. It pops up a window with some status messages, then closes without prompting after creating the files.
I have the same EXE listed in an "Execute Process" task in SSIS (VS 2015, pointed to SQL Server 2012). When I run it, it pops up the same cmd window, gives the same status messages, closes without prompting, and continues to the next step in my SSIS package... BUT it doesn't write any files.
I gave "Everyone" permissions to the target folder, which doesn't seem to have helped. What do I need to do?
When the process is launched from SSIS, it's not being run from the same folder as the executable. That's pretty typically of any software executing an external process.
Fortunately, you can set the "working folder" option within the Execute Process task properties. If your executable is written to write to the current folder, it should work.
I am relatively new to SSIS packages Package is a File system task to rename and move a file.
Package runs correctly from SSIS store but whe I run it as asql server agent job it doesnt move or rename file but shows successful. What am I doing wrong
When executing the package from the store, you are likely executing the package under your own domain credentials, which probably have permissions on the folders/files impacted by the package.
When executing from the server agent, it likely does not have those same permissions on the files/folders. That would be the first thing I would check, but having additional information as to the resources being manipulated and user accounts used could potentially shed more light on the situation.
Does SSIS 2012 allow to export all connections of a project for a further import into another project?
In 2012 SSIS projects, you now have 2 options. The classic, pre 2012 way which is referred to as Package Deployment Model. The new, default, model is the Project Deployment Model. This answer focuses on the Project Deployment model.
Before you begin any manual edits of files, use a version control system. While you can edit XML by hand, you need to have a safe recovery point in case you pooch the files.
In SSIS 2012, you can have Connection Managers scoped to packages as you've always done or they can now be a shared, project wide connection. Project connection managers show up in every package in SSDT, whether you need them or not. They are prefaced with (project).
If you've created a package Connection Manager that you wish to make into a project resource, simply right click on the CM and select Convert to Project Connection.
One caveat if you reverse that, the Convert to Package Connection is only going to create that CM in the current package. That's not such a hassle when it's 2 or 3 packages, but when it's 20ish, that gets tedious.
A Project Connection Manager has a physical file associated with it. In your project's folder, there will be .conmgr file for each connection manager. That defines the connection all the packages share. However, packages only "know" about the connection manager because of data in the .dtproj file.
If I wanted to re-use an existing project connection manager in a new project, I'd need to copy that file into my new projects folder. After that, I'd have to edit the .dtproj file and add that file's name in between the ConnectionManagers tag
<DeploymentModelSpecificContent>
<Manifest>
...
<SSIS:ConnectionManagers>
<SSIS:ConnectionManager SSIS:Name="PackageCM.conmgr" />
</SSIS:ConnectionManagers>
Now when SSDT opens the project file up, you should have a project CM exposed.
I don't think there's import/export connections utility in SSIS. You could, however, create package configuration file and include your connection managers in it. Then you can edit the file to run your package on different environment, or use values in it to update configuration file of another package.

Right click on the connection. Copy the connection Manager and paste in required package
I have FTP location having 2-3 folders from there i need to pull some files on daily bases using SSIS package please help.
for example:
FTP Detail
Server: ftp.abc.com:21
User: user1
Pwd: pass1
then there is a folder called Mydata and file named price(Date)
now i what to pull that file on my local machine C:\
how can I do this using SSIS?
I'd start with adding an FTP Connection Manager to your package. You will most likely want to create two variables in your package, User and Password and configure the FTP connection manager's expressions tab to use them. Reason being, you may run into issues with running the package via SQL Agent and you will need to supply those values via external configuration. Example 1 of said issue but it's a common problem
Click test and verify the connection manager is working fine.
Next step is to drop an FTP task on your control flow and see if you can master pulling 1 file down. That operation will be "Receive files"
While looking for a good image, I stumbled across this article and that should more than cover everything you will need to know about Using the FTP Task in SSIS 2008
