I work with Microsoft Access 2016 with a SQL Server 2008 R2 backend. I have used SQL Server Management Studio to create some SSIS package for quick copying of data (right-click DB -> Tasks -> Import/Export).
I was able to create a button in Access to kick off the SSIS package successfully using VBA. I use the Shell function to run the following command:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\140\DTS\Binn\DTExec.exe" /F "\\MyPath\MySSISPackage.dtsx". This works on my machine because I'm running my particular instance of DTExec.exe to execute the SSIS package.
I need to set up users' Win10 64-bit computers now so that this process will work for them as well. I don't know if DTExec was installed when I installed SSMS or my local SQL Server Express Edition DB, but the user doesn't need either of these programs. What is the bare minimum I need to install on the users' computers for it to work for them also?
I've done a lot of googling but either the scenario didn't quite fit mine, or I just wasn't understanding what they were talking about. The users will have Microsoft Access only as a start.
Links to download locations would be extra appreciated!
Thanks!
For running SSIS packages in a production environment you must install and license SQL Server. A user who only has Microsoft Access installed cannot run SSIS packages.
You can install and run SSIS packages on your SQL Server (Standard Edition or higher), but not on your clients' PCs.
Once you have credentials all sorted out with DBA team. At min you will need read (select permission) on desired database(s) . Build your ssis in VS2017 locally and test. It will run great I'm sure. And when your ready to deploy you can use steps below.
Steps below outline package deployment mode.

I am trying to run a flatfile SSIS package via .Net code using the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime DLL version 14.0.0.0.
Upon executing I get "To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install Standard edition of Integration Services or higher"
I have SSIS for Visual studio 2017 installed, along with with SQL server 2017 both have the SSIS extension installed.
There are a number of questions relating to this error when trying to run via the DTExe directly; but haven't found any questions regarding troubleshooting the Dts.Runtime DLL.
I presume that the DLL calls DTExe, but I don't know to tell which DTExe it will call. Using the "wrong" DTExe is the solution to many other questions regarding this error.
Whether you're using the managed object model or using the tooling, both are going to check to see whether the SSIS Service is installed on the machine. It is a requirement of licensing to run an SSIS package that the server running the package be a licensed SQL Server instance. So, the application you've written hopefully is targeted for running on a machine that already has a SQL Server server standard license or above.
For development, that runs you about 50 bucks last I checked. For production, we're talking tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
For completeness, SQL Server 2005 and 2008 SSIS packages would run on machines that had the data tooling installed (then called the Business Intelligence Design Studio, or BIDS) because the only way to acquire the installation media was to have the ISO images of SQL Server, Developer edition or above.
With 2012, you could now download the SQL Server Data Tools, SSDT without having the SQL Server product but you lost the ability to run packages outside of the Visual Studio debugger - which is a shame as the debugger can severely impact the throughput of a package.
If you check the licensing requirements - scaling out SSIS to different machines is not included in the Enterprise edition license.
SQL Server does not need SSDT installed to run an SSIS package. The option for installing the tools to run and interactive with it (dtutil, dtexec, ssisdeploymentwizard) .. might exist or not depending on version. But that's running packages. Development is where SSDT comes into play. SSDT designs and runs packages within the context of development (Visual Studio debugger). Anything else is going to get blocked by that licensing check.
I am using Visual studio ultimate 2012, SQL Server 2017 and Sql Server Data tools 2012. I am working with windows 10 64 bit.
My package consists of script tasks(c#) and Sql commands and it runs successfully from SSDT, but while trying to run my package from CMD i am getting
To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install Standard Edition (64-bit) of Integration Services.
If i make another empty package and try to run it then it runs successfully too.
Please help.
(1) Integration Services (Shared feature) installation
I think that the issue is that you have installed SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) for Visual Studio but you didn't install the Integration Services (Shared feature) from the SQL Server Installation which is necessary to execute .dtsx packages outside of visual studio.
For more information check the following link:
SSIS Error – “To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install…”
(2) Execute using dtexec(32-bit)
Another thing you can try is to execute package via 32-bit dtexec.
As mentioned in the following Microsoft Documentation:
On a 64-bit computer, Integration Services installs a 64-bit version of the dtexec utility (dtexec.exe). If you have to run certain packages in 32-bit mode, you will have to install the 32-bit version of the dtexec utility. To install the 32-bit version of the dtexec utility, you must select either Client Tools or Business Intelligence Development Studio during setup.
By default, a 64-bit computer that has both the 64-bit and 32-bit versions of an Integration Services command prompt utility installed will run the 32-bit version at the command prompt. The 32-bit version runs because the directory path for the 32-bit version appears in the PATH environment variable before the directory path for the 64-bit version. (Typically, the 32-bit directory path is :\Program Files(x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn, while the 64-bit directory path is :\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn.)

Adding to Hadi's answer, the change would be to use the right version which in my case was to use
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\130\DTS\Binn>
Instead of
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\130\DTS\Binn>
I had the same error and my integration services of 2017 was installed, so the suggested solution was not relevant.
i tried many options including uninstall and re-install, what solved finally was an upgrade to ENTERPRISE EDITION!
I found out that in a server where the dtexec ran successfully an ENTERPRISE VERSION was installed, while in the problematic server there was not an ENTERPRISE edition.
How did i find it? i ran the following in both servers:
run setup.exe file of SQL SERVER 2017 installation
on the left menu you will see "tools" - press the link
find: "installed SQL server features discovery report"
you will see in edition column an empty cell vs. "Enterprise Edition"
which is the successful one!
how did i upgrade in the problematic server?
run setup.exe file of SQL SERVER 2017 installation
on the left menu you will see "maintenance" - press the link
find: "edition upgrade"
follow the instructions, in my case since my organization had an automatic updated key i just pressed "next" a few times until a successful upgrade
good luck!
I am learning to work with the SSIS packages.
I have made an SSIS package to work with the delta data(changed data since last run).
But i am having troubles running the package outside the development enviroment
I have tried to runt it with DTEXECUI.EXE utilty but it gives me the following error.
I have also tried to run it from a stored procedure by enabling the xp_cmdshell but i still get some error like this.
Please help, i am also trying to Google my way through.
It's clear from the error messages To run a ssis package outside of sql server data tools you must...
SSIS 2012 components have to be installed on your server to resolve the issue.
As per this post:
What you need are the base SQL Server binaries which are installed
with the DB engine. So you need a SQL Server Instance of some flavour
to have dtexec running. Whether it's the DB Engine or the SSIS service
installed but disabled.
Running packages in BIDS is a special case. Run the package on the
same PC as BIDS via dtexec and it will fail unless you have installed
server components (= a SQL Server Instance)
I have a managed C++ application that connects to SQL Server 2005 Express databases on the same computer and over a network. My problem is that if the database is located on another computer over the network, the client machine will not have the needed DLLs files installed from SQL Server.
I can't force my users to install SQL Server 2005 Express on the client machine just to get the needed support files. So my question is, is it safe to installed the dependent files to the GAC on the user's computer? Or, does MS have a command line install package for just this purpose?
The files from SQL Server that my application show as being dependent on are as follows:
Microsoft.SqlServer.BatchParser
Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo
Microsoft.SqlServer.RegSvrEnum
Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication
Microsoft.SqlServer.Rmo
Microsoft.SqlServer.ServiceBrokerEnum
Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo
Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum
Microsoft.SqlServer.WmiEnum
If it helps, I'm using the Inno-Setup program for my installer. This has to be a common problem.
You dont have to install the full version of SQL Server, but you do need the necessary drivers. Installing the SQL 2008 SMO package on the client should resolve these issues.

I need to build SSIS packages on a build machine, and do not want the overhead of installing SQL Server Management Studio on this machine. A SQL Server 2008 SDK would be ideal, but I could not find where to download it.
The dlls I require are (for example):
Microsoft.SQLServer.ManagedDTS
Microsoft.SqlServer.PipelineHost
Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap
Microsoft.SQLServer.DTSRuntimeWrap
I could attempt to copy them to the build machine individually, but I would rather just use an SDK if possible.
Where can I get the SDK, or alternatively, what suggestions are there?
You could probably manually copy things about and register then in the GAC, but the client tools are hardly huge, and don't take long to install, so I don't see why they are much of an overhead?
As far as I know there's no other way to get those assemblies.
I think he is trying to accomplish SSIS packages as part of the automated continuous build process. The way i did it was to have an express edition of SQL Server and SSIS on the build machine, use BIDS helper to script the cmd line file for deploying the packages and use NANT to use this script. Hope this helped.
I don't know about SQL 2008 but SQL 2005 SSIS packages are developed in Visual Studio.
Edited:
When you run install for client tools, it's an option to add the stuff to VS.NET, "Client tools" as such can be deselected (end edit)
SSMS can be used to manage them and administer.
What other editor did you want to use...?
