When trying to execute an SSIS package I get the following error:

 This happens when loading a package and the file cannot be opened or

 either providing an incorrect file name was specified when calling
 LoadPackage or the XML file was specified and has an incorrect format.

 The step failed.

Any ideas on how can I solve it?

Answer 1

i had a similar problem and what i did to get my package to run was: a. Open Job properties in SQL Server b. On the Steps page in the Package field: I used the entire folder name instead of the mapped name, for example: \share\allusers\myuserid\mypackage.dtsx instead of A:\mypackage.dtsx

Best.
