sql server dts: on SQL 2005, I' m trying to run a job that execute an SSIS package.
The job simply extract data from local database and dump it in an Oracle
database.

The job fail either if I schedule it or start it manually, and it display
the following error message:
"Executed as user:myDomain\myUser. The package execution failed. The step
failed."

The windows operating system is in a domain.

I tried the following :
- assign the sqlAgent service account with a domain user account which is
a member of local administrators group (SQL server is set to authenticate in
mixed mode)
- set the job owner to be the same as the SQL Agent service account.
- set the SSIS Package ProtectionLevel property to ServerStorage.
- I tried to run the job under the same account as the job owner
- I gave the SQLAgent account a sysadmin role on the server where the job is
- I tried with dtexec utility.

none of the above could make the job to work.

when I run the package manually (not from the job) it run without any error.

Hi Zino,
I understand that your SSIS package failed executing from a SQL Agent job;
while you could manually execute it (from Business Intelligence Development
Studio (BIDS)?).
If I have misunderstood, please let me know.

This seems to be a common-seen issue. I recommend that you refer to this
article for troubleshooting your issue:
An SSIS package does not run when you call the SSIS package from a SQL
Server Agent job step
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918760

If the KB article does not help, I would like to know what the result is if
you create a simple SSIS package and execute it from a SQL job, such as
just executing an INSERT operation to a SQL Server table.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any other questions or
concerns.

Best regards,
Charles Wang

thank you for the help.
I installed SP2, and that made the sql agent display more helpfull error
detail (before SP2 was installed, sql agent did not display the kind of the
error or any hint where it is originated from).
The oracle ODBC on the server was not installed properly, so all I had to do
is reinstall it and everything works fine

thank you again
