  • From the following Microsoft connect site SSMS : Can no longer create or edit job steps I found Microsoft has fixed it:

    Issue: When attempting to add a step to a SQL Server Job,if you see this issue "Creating an instance of the COM component with CLSID {AA40D1D6-CAEF-4A56-B9BB-D0D3DC976BA2} from the IClassFactory failed due to the following error: c001f011. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS)",

  • Hi..

    How do i know if i already installed service pack or not yet ?

    Thanks

  • You can see the version of the client tools (i.e. SSMS) in the "about" section of the "help" menu.

    Information about the version (and latest installed servicepack) of the SQL Server engine can be obtained by executing "SELECT @@VERSION" in a (new) query window. The result will show you the edition of SQL Server and also states information about installed service pack. You can also look at the version number in the Object Explorer pane of SSMS when you are connected to the instance.

    See for more information: How to determine the version and edition of SQL Server and its components

    When connected to the proper SQL instance, execute "SELECT @@VERSION" in a (new) query window. The result will show you the edition of SQL Server and also states information about installed service pack.

    That shows the server's service pack. Since this is a .net error, it's a client error from management studio. To see if you've patched management studio, Help -> About and look at the version number there and compare it against any of the lists that google can get you on what service pack has what version number.

    Are you trying from SQL 2005 clients ?

  • No.. i'm using SQL2008 on client, server also using SQL2008..

    As GilaMonster said, the problem came from client accessing server. I checked from management studio on client and it's already SP3

    then, how to repair management studio on client to fix this errors ?

    I already upgraded with SP3, but the problem still sometimes appear..

    That's not service pack 3. That's RTM. You need to apply at least service pack 3 to this, preferably service pack 4.

    I assume SSMS is also RTM, as you didn't say what version SSMS returns.

    Here's copy/paste from Help | About.. from Management Studio.

    Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio10.50.1600.1

    Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools10.50.1600.1

    Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC)3.85.1132

    Microsoft MSXML2.6 3.0 5.0 6.0

    Microsoft Internet Explorer8.0.6001.18702

    Microsoft .NET Framework2.0.50727.3607

    Operating System5.1.2600

    But SELECT @@VERSION, did u see the words (Build 2600: Service Pack 3) ? That means, i did upgraded it with SP3.

    Yup, that's RTM. You need to apply SP3 at least, preferably SP4 to this machine.

    But SELECT @@VERSION, did u see the words (Build 2600: Service Pack 3) ? That means, i did upgraded it with SP3.

    Read it again.
