DTS job schedule attempt fails (SQL 42000)

  • I am running SQL v7.0 and have over 100 DTS packages that have been setup and jobs scheduled against those that run successfully. Recently I had to recreate a DTS job which was successful, and Executes successfully. However, when I attempt to Schedule that DTS package, it fails immediately with the following error:

    Package Error

    Microsoft SQL-DMO (ODBC SQL State 42000)

    Login failed for user '(null)'. Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.

    I've searched Micrsoft and tried all their tricks, but no help.

    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Check the job owner and change it to 'sa'.

  • Not sure I understand. The system will NOT create the job ... all I have is a DTS package created. I don't see an option in the DTS package to change the owner ...

  • Can you check whether the SQL Agent startup account has necessary privilages ?

  • Fred, I appreciate the info, but not sure where you want me to check. Are you talking about Enterprise manager, or Services? I looked at services and the local service is controlling the job.

  • Had the same error message on a different topic after i had installed a named instance. Whist i realised that this will not be the case if you are working in a 7.0 environment, just wondered if you had done a secondry install on your production server. Eventually my errors were resolved by a series of reboots. Good Luck.
