Ok - this is probably a silly question but what the hell.
I've created a SSIS package with configuration and a deployment manifest. When I copied this over to the server and double clicked it, the Package Wizard returned an error - that Integration Services wasn't installed - bad.
But when I did an export data task via SSMS, I noticed I could save this task as a package. When I set up a job I noticed I could actually select an SSIS package to schedule - even though SSIS is not installed(!?!) Does this mean I could just point to my earlier package and schedule that?
If so, do you only need Integration Services installed in order to install packages within SQL Server - its fine to run them from the file system?
Cheers
Here is a good article on different ways to execute a package programmatically:

I have an SSIS solution with about 150 packages. Two of the packages consistently fail with an "Unexpected Termination" error when running in 64-bit. They succeed when running in 32-bit runtime.
The packages that fail writes some rows to the destination before failing.
The source and destination for all data flows is the local SQL Server databases. I use SQL Server Native 11 OLE DB drivers.
Both packages contain DT_NTEXT data types, but so do some of the other packages that succeed.
The are nothing in the ErrirDumps folder (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\140\Shared\ErrorDumps). Also nothing in the Windows event log.
Below is an image of the dataflow task. The LKP component only caches 5 rows.
Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.
I had the same problem with my SSIS package. After upgrading from 2010 32-bit to 2016 64-bit, the package stopped working. SQL Server Job doesn't show errors, and even verbose error logging does not provide useful information.
My packages were importing a few different spreadsheets in parallel. After changing the tasks to serial processing (import the next spreadsheets after the first one is done), the package works again.
Before updating your SSIS package, I suggest you disable tasks in your package and find out the source of the error. But hopefully this helps!
I had a similar problem, or hopefully the same. The package could not be run using 64bit env and there were no logs either.
Just check your dotnet framework installation. There was a problem with file permissions at machine.config file within "Framework64" folder...
I have created an SSIS package in SQL Server Business Intelligence Studio on my local machine and now I want to share that package with the client.and also want to deploy that package on Server
so I am searching for the solution how to share that package with the client.
if you guys know how to share SSIS PACKAGE please provide the solution...
To deploy the package to the SQL Server, you have two options:
In Visual Studio; open the solution; right click on the project and select Deploy. Follow the steps in the wizard.
In Windows; press Windows + R to bring up the Run window; type in isdeploymentwizard.exe. Follow the steps in the wizard.
As for sharing the SSIS solution, send the client the entire folder that the solution is contained in. I avoid sharing *.dtsx files.
I've got a number of SSIS packages spread across multiple projects in SQL Server Data Tools (formerly BIDS), which I want to deploy to the SSIS Catalog DB on my server.
When I want to deploy an entire project, I can just right-click the project and hit Deploy, to start the SSIS deployment wizard. However, there doesn't seem to be an option to do this for a single package only, without redeploying the rest of the packages in the same project.
Does anyone know if it's possible to deploy just a single package using the deployment wizard, independently from the others in the project?
This does not appear to be possible via the deployment wizard or SSDT. Similar discussion in this thread...where the original poster proposes a (terribly manual) workaround.
You might also want to get BIDSHelper from Codeplex (free tool). It contains a utility to allow you to deploy SSIS packages from BIDS. I haven't tested BIDS Helper with SSDT yet. Also you might want to grab SSIS Package Manager from Codeplex as well.
You can use SQL Server Management Studio to import a single package:
In SSMS, connect to your Integration Services instance.
Right-click the appropriate node (File System or MSDB) and select Import Package.
Set Package Location to File System.
Click the three dots next to Package Path. Browse to your SSDT project and select the .dtsx file you want to import.
Click OK. If prompted to overwrite the existing package, click Yes.
On this link 2nd workaround method suggests to try running SSIS package on computer that doesn't have SQL instance. How is that possible? Do I need to have installed VS 2008 Business Intelligence or it's possible even without it?
I found a link that may help you. Read this MSDN article.
This article has answers for your questions:
"You can install SQL Server Integration Services on a computer that has no previous instances of SQL Server."
"The Business Intelligence Development Tools (BIDS) option installs the Integration Services components required to design a package, but the Integration Services service is not installed and you cannot run packages outside of BI Development Studio."
Of couse the only install the latter is not enough to run arbitary packages.
The following may help you:
Install dtexec utility on the webserver or wherever your SSIS package resides. Regarding the minimum requirements please check this page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162810.aspx
Create a .cmd/bat file that calls dtexec including all the needed parameters. Your webpage 's button or a scheduled job will trigger this .cmd or .bat file
Now, to stop a package in this setup, you can use a precedence constraint for example a file, you can check if the file exists before executing each next step in your SSIS package, this approach is discussed here: http://www.dotnetspider.com/forum/250123-Stop-SSIS-package-at-runtime.aspx. By the way to stop the package I thus suggest creating a second button.
You can install SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) without installing SQL Server by itself, and then you can use integration services. Try this link:

I've seen this link about running an SSIS package in a C#/.Net application on someone's box who doesn't have SSIS installed.
I thought I'd ask if since that article has been published if there's another way to allow an end user to run an SSIS package on their box without having SSIS intalled. I'd hoped that my C# application's reference to the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime assembly would do the trick, but that's just not the case.
It would be easier at my work to have the users install SSIS than try the workaround mentioned in the article, whereby a windows service on a 3rd box does most of the work. But I thought I'd check if there'd been any breakthroughs on doing this. Thanks!
You need to have SSIS installed on the machine in order to use the API. I do not think you want to do that because Microsoft wants you to have a SQL Server license for every machine that has SSIS installation, even without the SQL Server part. This will get expensive real quick. I think your idea of having an Agent Server that runs the packages on request will work best.
