The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

DTS Problems - Error opening datafile: The system detected a possible attempt to compromise security.

Asked by TheKyle in MS SQL DTS, MS SQL Server, MS Forefront-ISA

Tags: SQL Server 2000, DTS Package, Jobs, Security, Export

One of my clients has a scheduled job that runs a DTS package every day.  Recently the job began failing.  I set up error logging on the DTS package, and have included the error below.

I have tried running the DTS package manually, and it worked fine.  I also manually started the SQL job, and it ran fine.  It only fails when the job runs automatically at it's scheduled time.  

The DTS package exports a file to a folder on a mapped network drive.  The connectivity between the local computer and the mapped network drive seems to by fine.

Around the same time that this started failing the in-house IT guy said that he removed some old/unused users from the network.  I noticed that one of those users was the owner of the DTS package and the SQL job.  I tried changing the owner to an admin user that I knew existed, but it still failed.  I also tried giving the "everyone" group full control permissions on the export folder.

Here's the error message recorded in the DTS log file...  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
