Which version of SSIS track versions of SSIS Package deployed to Server ? Please provide version.
DTS (very old version of SSIS) used to do it automatically. But as far as I know no versions of SSIS do it. You use TFS for that, but it just manages all the source code.
To check the package format version you have to open .dtsx file itself .
If PackageFormatVersion>3 then its 2008 when PackageFormatVersion>6 then its 2012 and when PackageFormatVersion>8 then 2014.
I have added snapshot it might help you to understand how to check version in SSIS.
SSIS 2012, 2014 and 2017 can track versions of SSIS Package deployed to Server. SSIS 2005, 2008 did not have this features.

I got VS 2017 15.8.1 version installed and a legacy SSIS package created and run in VS 2012 version 11.0.61219.00 Update 5. So basically two VS instances on one machine. I also installed SSDT 15.4.0 version for VS 2017. My app saves .csv file on the server, makes a call to SQL Server 2016 which invokes SSIS packages and passes the address of .csv file to it. SSIS processes the file and saves data to the database. All this is working correctly, however, instead of displaying the uploaded file on page as a link the UI throws the following error.
"Error: 2019-05-09 12:06:03.61, Code: 0xC000F427, Source:
SCR_Chk_UploadTypes, Description: To run a SSIS package outside of SQL
Server Data Tools you must install SCR_Chk_UploadTypes of Integration
Services or higher.,End Error,DTExec: The package execution returned
DTSER_FAILURE (1)."
Any ideas what "SCR_Chk_UploadTypes" is? I'm guessing it might have some relation to SSDT and VS compatibility.
Thanks!

I imagine that is either the name of a connection manager or a Data Source in the data flow(s). Can you post a screenshot?
With respect to the error itself, please note that Microsoft requires a package to target a specific version of SQL Server.
The package that runs in VS2012 can only target SQL Server 2012.
Starting with VS2015, Microsoft introduced the concept of Server targeting. By default, when creating a package in VS2017 the targeted SQL Server will be SQL Server 2017. Have you confirmed that the SQL Server version that the package is targeting is SQL Server 2016?
For more information on targeting
I need to upgrade my SSIS package developed in SQL Server 2008 R2 to Sql Server 2016 package. What is the easiest way to upgrade my package.dtsx file.
I am looking at an option where the upgrade happens on the file system. I would need to then open it using Visual studio 2015 editor and extend it further. The package should be compatible to run on SQL Server 2016 database server.
The easiest upgrade method is just to open the file in VS 2015.
You will need to make sure the correct provider for OLEDB conns.
Also, watch out for script tasks. They don't always upgrade properly.
I am importing my SQL 2008 R2 packages into my SQL 2014 server. I'm noticing there are 2 ways to do this
Integration Services Catelog -->SSISDB
Connect to SSIS -->Stored Packages
I'm trying to understand the difference between the 2 ways. I like the SSISDB way better. Don't ask me why. I just do.
Is one way the "new" way or "proper" way and the other way is just for backwards compatibility?
You can export the SSIS Project to Sql server data tools 2014 by opening the exported ispac file in Visual Stdio 2012 or newer version.
You just right click on the deployed project and export the ispac file to a particular location in your system.
Now, Open Visual Studio and open business integration import project and browse that file.
Here, your packages in that project will be upgraded to newer version of SSIS.
Hope, this could help you!
I have not seen the SQL Server 2014,just wondering is there any difference in SSIS 2012 and SSIS 2012?Any new components introduced?Any new tasks?
According to the MSDN article What's New (Integration Services), no changes have been introduced in SSIS:
SQL Server 2014 Integration Services is unchanged from the previous release.
Feature wise they are exactly the same but for some stupid reason the package format has changed and you cannot mix versions.
i.e. Packages created in VS2010/2012 can only be deployed to SQL 2012 instance (SSIS2012 runtime) and VS2013 -> SQL 2014.
If you open a VS2010/2012 solution in VS2013 it will upgrade and you cannot go back.
See this for more feedback.

Edit: it seems you can deploy SSIS2012 packages to SQL2014 using Management Studio as they are automatically upgraded. The rules about Visual Studio still stand.
(I have used this - my team are mixed between 2012 and 2014)
I have a package that is developed in SSIS 2012 using Visual Studio 2010.
Is it possible to deploy/attach this package on SQL Server 2008
If it is possible, does the licence of the sql server matter
no, you cant. SSIS package are not backwards compatible.
Also it doesn't make much sense if you think about it. If it was the other way around, "maybe" it could be done because 2012 would somehow be aware of 2008 structure, but 2008 engine isn't aware of 2012 package structure.
You cannot run it with the 2008 version of dtexec and you certainly cannot deploy it into the catalog, but if you could install the minimum you need to run SSIS 2012 onto a server somewhere you could then execute the package from filesystem with the 2012 version of dtexec.

Best guess would be no. The engine to run the SSIS package would have to match the release level of the code. You have not been able to run any SSIS package on any release level below the developed level of the package (i.e. 2005 server will not run a 2008 package etc.)
It is not a license issue, it is an engine issue. The SSIS engine code changes with each release and therefore the code would be running in an engine that doesn't support the features or structure of the package.
