SSIS Scheduling Packages Error

  • Hi,

    I have very strange problem here. I have sql server 2008 on the server. When

    I developed SSIS package, I used package configuration to specify different

    parameters. I defined location i.e. D:\Config\pckcfg.dtsconfig.

    I need to run it on a

    different occasions, but using different package configuration files. I

    schedule SSIS job, and I specify different package configuration file (job

    step properties - configuratiosn tab):

    D:\DifferentConfig\diffpckcfg.dtsconfig.

    When I run this job, it ALLWAYS USES package configuration that I specified

    when developing package: D:\Config\pckcfg.dtsconfig!!!

    Why is this happening? Is there any setting that I might have missed?

  • please help me out with this problem..

  • I searched a little and there is an option in steps tab of job scheduling that overrides the design values of variables...IS that the solution?

  • [p]How diffpckcfg.dtsconfig file been created? Did you create this configuration file along with pckcfg.dtsconfig? May be it is helpful when you view code of your package.[/p]

  • I have modified the pckconf file by changing the values of variables for example by changing sales.csv to sales1.csv. And I renamed the file as diffpckconf.dtsconfig

    I have created another job which executes the same package but with with this new configfile. But the problem is it still executes my sales.csv file not sales1.csv.

    Let me know if you need any other additional infO?

  • [p]In BIDS, right click on your package -> click on View Code -> and search for your configuration file name or configuration name. Modify file name there if anything is required.[/p]
