    Hi All,

    I have a csv file in a shared folder in a server. My package is running fine in the designer, but when I set up a sql agent job for the package, it throws the below error:

    ---"System.Unauthorizedaccessexception: access to the path "\\sharedfolderserver\sharedfoldername is denied"--.

    I know this is some where related to securtiy issue.COuld anyone pls help on this? Thanks!

    Please check whether SQL Server Agent Account/account with which package is executing has access to path "\\sharedfolderserver\sharedfoldername". In your designed, SSIS package runs with your own user account however when you deploy it to SQL Server, it will run with SQL Server Agent Account so that account should have access to requested path.

    Regards,

    Yes the account under which the sql agent jobs runs also has permissions to the shared folder. but the job is still failing. Any help?

    Thanks!

    Sorry to question that, but are you certain? How did you determine the SQL Agent account?

    Thanks for your reply.

    We have a user under which all the sql jobs are executed. And I assume that particular sql account needs to have access to the shared folder?

    Could you please let me know if I am right?

    Thanks!
