Legacy DTS Packages

  • I found a way (at this link) to be able to run my Legacy DTS packages in SQL Server 2008 r2 on a Windows 2008R2 Server

    http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2165/sql-server-2000-to-sql-server-2008-dts-package-conversion-runtime-issue/

    I basically run these:

    SQLServer2005_BC.msi

    SQLServer2005_DTS.msi

    Then copy some files:

    1.Copy the files, SEMSFC.DLL, SQLGUI.DLL, and SQLSVC.DLL, from

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn folder to

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE folder.

    2.Copy the files, SEMSFC.RLL, SQLGUI.RLL, and SQLSVC.RLL, from

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\Resources\1033 folder to

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\Resources\1033 folder.

    Now I am trying to do the same thing except on a Windows 2012 Server.

    I installed SQL Server 2008 R2.

    I am able to run SQLServer2005_DTS.msi (SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Components) but when I attempt to run

    SQLServer2005_BC.msi I get an error saying it is not supported on this operating system -

    can anyone help or shed some light?

  • From this article http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2681562 it says that SQL 2005 is not compatible with Windows Server 2012. This could be the reason why you are having problems.

    I know it's not a solution but do you have the option of upgrading your packages?

  • I am running SQL Server 2008R2 Standard Edition - not SQL Server 2005.

    SQLServer2005_BC.msi - Will not run on SQL 2012..

    SQLServer2005_DTS.msi - Runs fine.

    Does anyone know of a workaround or a different version of SQLServer2005_BC.msi ??
