DTS Packages On Clustered Server

  • Is there a reason why I get this error every time a job executes a DTS package on a clustered SQL Server (SQL Server 2000 SP3):

    Error string: [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. Error source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server Help file: Help context: 0. Process Exit Code 1. The step failed.

    The last test I ran was a VBScript with no connection info and I still got this error.

    Anyone know why I get this error even when there is no connection info in the DTS package?

  • I assume you have a connection of some sort to actually run a tsql step or a data transform. I would check to see if that connection has (local) in it instead of the actuall sql server instance name.

  • You need to use SQL Server virtual name for the connection.
