difference between run as administrator/other when building SSIS package in Visual Studio 2013

  • We noticed that a certain package failed to execute through an SQL server agent Job . I wonder whether this may have anything to do with building the SSIS package WITHOUT running the Visual Studio 'as an administrator' . The package runs okay within the Studio or when using the DTExecUI.exe utility.
    Could this be a matter of the enhanced server security behavior introduced with SQL Server 2008R2 (and later versions)?

    Unlikely. More likely is that the SQL Agent user does not have the necessary permissions to execute all of the tasks in the package.

  • I just checked. The rights on the specific package that is causing trouble is identical for all other packages for the user defined for SQL server Agent.

    I said nothing about the package, rather about the SQL Agent user. 
    Is this package doing something different from all the other packages, probably something outside of SQL (eg, accessing a file in the file system, an FTP site, another SQL Server instance ...)?
