When scheduling DTS Packages on SLQ7 Service Pack2
packages that run sucessfully are failing.
The package I am trying to run has a data source - Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server.

Which is referenced MS Artice - 811906
- http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;811906&Product=sql

The error is also referenced in this article:

Error: -2147217887 (80040E21); Provider Error: 0 (0)
Error string: Errors occurred
Error source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Help file:
Help context: 0
DTSRun OnFinish: DTSStep_DTSExecuteSQLTask_1
DTSRun: Package execution complete. Process Exit Code 1. The step failed.

And as it suggests if I run the package from my laptop which has MDAC 2.7 installed this runs but if use schedule it fails - our main server has only MDAC 2.2 installed
Method 1 suggested is not an option - as we have a cluster and this is not supported over level 2.5 of MDAC. I have tried Method 2 but this does not work so I have a DTS package which I can not schedule.

My other theory was permissions but I have tried all different permissions levels and still no joy.

Does you have any suggestions which maybe of help to me that do not involve upgrading as this is not an current option for our LIVE enviroment.


Main dB Server is running Windows NT 4 Enterprise Edition with Service Pack 4 & SQL 7 with SErvice Pack 2
My Lapop is running - Windows XP Service Pk1 and same version of SQL
