don't think it can be done (short of editing a backup of msdb with a hex editor). may try opening ticket with MS PSS team.

Is anything still executing the DTS package, such as a SQL Server Agent job?

Hello, everyone

Checking internet I combine everything and found my own solution

It takes 5 minutes and do not need any script to compile

1. transfer package ownership to my domain account

2. transfer job to my account

3. execute dtsrun DTSRun /~Z0x5...... with switches /!X /!C from my machine

It gave you decrypted line with parameter /M "password"

When I was trying to do this on server it did not give /M parameter, only from my machine

Thanks to everybody for help

Hi,

I am facing the same problem, can you explain me all the steps in sequence you have done to resolve the issue

Hi, you need to have admin account to do all of this

I did following steps

1. transfer package ownership to my domain account

use this stored procedure

sp_reassign_dtspackageowner

[@name =] 'name',

[@id =] 'id',

[@newloginname =] 'newloginname'

You can find package id from sysdtspackages table

'newloginname' = your domain account

2. transfer job owner for this dts package to my domain account

3.

execute dtsrun DTSRun /~Z0x5...... with switches /!X /!C

from my machine

Z0x5...... is encrypted line from job step

for this purpose create batch file with lines

DTSRun /~Z0x5B4B.......2D495E /!X /!C

pause

DTSRun /~Z0x5B4B.......2D495E is a full line from the job step

I added pause at the end to read what it tells you

You should see lines

Dtsrun: LOading

dtsrun: Executing

After that you can paste to any notepad

It looks like this

DTSRun /S "ServerName" /N "DtsPackName" /M "password" /E /!X /!C

It gave you decrypted line with parameter /M "password"

Let me know when you done

assuming I am running the batch job from my (client) machine do I have to provide all the switches and the information like /S /U /P /N.

I would appreciate if you can please post the exact syntax.
