Transfer DB Task cannot find directory

  • Description: The network share "\\<our server name>\DATA" could not be found.

    I get this error on a package we run when running it from SQL Server Agent. If I run the package manually I do not get this. HOWEVER, the package is designed as the local admin, and is run as the local admin. And I can browse to that directory from the machine when logged in as local admin.

    Any ideas?

    I get this whichever encryption method I use as well if that could be involved.

  • is DATA on another server or same sql server where SSIS package is running? does admin have rights to that folder?

  • Hmmmm.....it was the network guy. Didn't set the correct permissions. Only had read permissiosn. Begs the question why SQL didn't report "Write permissions denied" rather than "Cannot see"!!!

  • typical network admin. hey I am a network admin 🙂 typical Microsoft disconnect!
