SSIS Logging

  • Hi everyone

    I am having some issues with SSIS logging.  I recall setting it up but I don't remember how I did it last time.  It was an option in SSIS somewhere but I cannot seem to find it now.  I took a look at sysssislog table and I see that it did log in the past but stopped recently.  I am not sure why it stopped.  What could be some reasons why it stopped?

    Thank you

  • Are your packages deployed to SSISDB?

    No they are not.  I never did that before and the logging was working then.  No clue what happened that cause it stop logging.  Any suggestions?

  • Sorry - but no idea on why the SSIS package is no longer logging.  There could be many reasons - but I would start with the config file to see if there are any configuration items that control logging.  I would then look at the agent job (if running through the agent) and check there - and I would validate that the job is actually running and completing successfully.

    The next thing I would do is create the integration services catalog on the server where that package is executing.  Then I would take the time to convert the package deployment to a project deployment (removing the logging configuration) and deploy to the catalog.  Let the catalog manage the logging for you - which removes a whole level of complexity to your packages that just isn't needed.

    When converting to project deployment - evaluate whether you need to do everything in that one package as a single package.  In many cases, breaking the package up into parent/child packages is much easier to manage and maintain and often makes for much simpler packages.
