Hi Kraig - no worries, I too have been hit-n-miss out here.

No, the package does not disappear or get moved or anything like that. I have tried it from within SQL (not the package store because again BIDS is not installed as part of this install), and from the file system, but in both cases it works the first time I create the job, and then fails every time there after.

I think I am going to try and set the job up on the other server that I am attaching to, and see if I cannot get it to work over there. Will report back in a bit!
