Hello all.

Since I designed this DTS package a few months ago, I've been having trouble getting it to run when scheduled. This package is very simple; it imports a text file and runs xp_sendmail to email the officers at my company shipped sales data for the current week.

At first, I would notice the the sqlagent would unexpectedly stop running. So I would start the agent back up, manually execute the package and all would be fine. Other times the package wouldn't run at all, so I would have to restart the server in order to get it to run.

Right now, I'm calling the dts package from a batch file and using a third party program to execute the batch file every morning and this seems to be working a lot better since I don't have to rely on the sqlagent service to be running.

Question, how can I avoid the sqlagent service to continually stop unexpectedly??

thanks

Nope. This package was designed after adding the service packs.
