[AccessD] Pass Through to DTS package

You can omit the /A if you aren't passing in parameter values.

Are there any other messages given?  Depending on your package
transaction setup, it may rollback the works if it doesn't succeed on
any one of the steps.

Are you sure that this package is working properly (i.e. have you tested
it from the DTS package designer?)

Can you test it from a command prompt on the server?  Query Analyzer?

And the most important one of all.  Make sure that the account running
the stored procedure has proper access rights:
	- In Enterprise Manager, expand the Management folder 
	- Right click on the SQL Server Agent Properties
	- Check the Non-SysAdmin job step proxy account section.  
		- If it is unchecked, then only SysAdmins can use
xp_cmdshell.  
		- If it is checked, then ensure that the Proxy Account
is pointing to an account with SysAdmin rights.

OK,
 
I got this to run successfully but it is not actually updating my
records. When I take out the NO_OUTPUT it actually says 42 records
affected. But when I look in the table, they are not chaged. This is my
command...
 
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'dtsrun /S "SQLSVR1" /E /N "TestPackage" /A ',
NO_OUTPUT 
 
Can you see anything wrong?

Lonnie,
I normally use DTS run from xp_cmdshell:

EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'dtsrun /S /E /N "
Name>" /A
=
', NO_OUTPUT

Notes:
/E indicates use trusted connection. Alternatively you can user /U /P
for SQL Server security. 
/A is used for setting global variable values I use the NO_OUTPUT option
when executing this from a SQL Server sp, because ADO mistakes the
console output for an error message.

Type dtsrun /? from the server's command window (or master..xpcmdshell
'dtsrun /?' from a query window) for help on all the switches, or look
it up in books online.

Does anyone know if you can send instructions via a pass though query to
start a SQL Sever 2000 DTS package?

Anxiously awaiting



May God bless you beyond your imagination!
