error when running sql job that has ssis package - sql-server

I have a ssis package created in sql server 2005. I am trying to run this in sql server 2008. when I run the command "exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /f "C:\MyPackage.dtsx"'" I get the following error.
There was an exception while loading Script Task from XML: System.IO.IOException: There is not enough space on the disk.
I have a script task in the package and there is where it is failing. I do not visual studio 2008 to convert this package to 2008 version. Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks,
sridhar.

I don't believe that you can run a 2005 SSIS package on a 2008 SQL Server. If you have the install disk for SQL Server 2008 you should be able to install the Business Intelligence Development Studio which is Visual Stuido for the development of SSIS and SSRS packages. You should then be able to use that to updgrade your package to the 2008 version.
Hope that helps, good luck.

Conditional Split not working when running SSIS package from SSMS

I have a SSIS package that works fine from VS2015 but when I try to run it from SSMS it fails with the error:
To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server you must install
conditional split of integration services or higher.
I did a little research and also created a new package with only a source and destination which worked fine. Once I added the conditional split it failed again. It seems like this may be a version conflict between the data tools, SSIS and SQL Server. I have other packages with conditional splits and other tasks that are executed in SQL Server such as Execute SQL tasks. The only reason I can think that they work is because they were created in a previous version of SSIS then upgraded.
I am using Visual Studio 2015 Community with
SQL Server Data Tools 14.0.61021.0 (SQL Server 2016 version which is backward compatible)
SQL Server Integration Services Designer 13.0.1701.8
On the SQL Server it says the SSIS version is 12.0.2269
My version of management Studio is 12.0.2000.8
Any ideas on what might be causing this error?

dtexec.exe without full SQL Server

I know that Azure SQL Database does not have SQL Server Agent to run SQL jobs. I can run the SSIS package through command prompt. I can create & run SSIS package through SSDT with no restriction but same package if I want to run on server through command line I need dtexec.exe. How same package runs with SSDT without SQL Server?
Can I have dtexec.exe without installing full version of SQL Server? I can't afford SQL Server license for Prod server.
To execute SSIS packages using dtexec or any other method requires a full SQL Server license for the server that you are running them on. Although SQL Server components can be split out, you still need a full license for every server you install them to.

Will SSDT-BI work with SQL Server 2008 R2?

Can some one tell me whether the SSIS packages developed in Visual Studio 2012 or 2013 works in 2008r2 server or not ???
If yes, did any other software needs to be installed in the 2008r2 server?
Deployment is not any concern here. I just want to run the packages in 2008r2 server via sql agent job
Please help.
No. Backwards compatibility is not an option. A package built in 2014 will not run on 2012. A 2012 package will not run on 2008 and a 2008 package will not run on 2005.
However, forward compatibility does exist so a 2005 package will run on 2008. 2008 will run on 2012, 2012 on 2014.
While I don't think this is your scenario, if you have the 2012/2014 SSIS packages deployed to a 2012/2014 server, you could run them from the 2008 server's SQL Agent task. It'd just be a matter of scripting the catalog.create_execution and catalog.start_execution BOL
Having that SQL Script, add a job step task of SQL and point the context over to your 2012/2014 server.
MSDN at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt204009.aspx contains an overview of all the supported VS/SQLServer version combinations.
Basically, for SQLServer2008R2 SSIS development you will need BIDS (from the SQLServer installation).
The VS2012/VS2013 tools support only SQLServer2012/2014 SSIS development.
For VS2015, the Februari preview release of the SSDT-BI tools is intended to support multi-targetting SSIS package development (but only SQLServer2012-2016, no 2008R2), see also in the comments at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ssdt/archive/2015/12/16/sql-server-data-tools-preview-update-for-december-2015.aspx
Note there is also something called BIML which is able to generate SSIS packages for different versions of SQLServer (incl 2008R2) from the same source code, so you could possibly use VS2012/VS2013 with BIDSHelper and then as a last step maybe generate packages for SQLServer2008R2.

How can I create a SSIS package for SQL Server 2008 in a SQL Server 2014 environment?

We have SQL Server & SSIS 2014 in our local environment, and most of SQL Server 2014 in our production environment, except for the SSIS, which is still 2008.
So we're creating SSIS packages locally which can't be deployed to production, because the SSIS packages are not backwards-compatible.
Is it possible to create the packages locally to target SSIS 2008? If so, how?
Just to note, the SSIS packages are defined in Visual Studio 2008, so I don't understand why they're dependent on SQL Server 2014.
The format of the SSIS packages has change from SSDT 2012 to 2013/2014. I was facing that situation recently before a Go Live. A colleague had developed SSIS packages in SSDT 2013 with SQL Server 2012 as the target environment for the deployment. While the development and execution from within SSDT 2013 with SQL Server 2012 is no problem, the package is not deployable within the SSIS catalog of SQL Server 2012. SSIS Packages are NOT downward compatible. ...at least with respect to the deployment in the SQL Server SSIS catalogue.
Open the dtsx file in the editor and check the value for "PackageFormatVersion". Possible values are:
VS 2013/2013 = 8
VS 2010/2012 = 6
Unfortunately, you cannot open SSIS packages with PackageFormatVersion=8 in SSDT 2012 or lower in order to downgrade a package. You could of course figure out, how the format has changed. I started to do this but gave up after a while. The best possible solution was to redevelop the package in SSDT 2012. Argh!
So, when developing SSIS packages you must take care of the target SQL Server version and then decide to choose the right SSDT version.

SSIS 2008 no possible to execute DTS 2000 package

I'm developping using BIDS 2008, I have a task which is Execute DTS 2000 package.
When running locally, it works fine ( I previsouly installed backward compatibility for 2005 and 2000 on my machine).
When deploying the package on a SQL server 2008 R2 and setting the sql agent to run it,the following error message appears:
stackoverflow System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040427): Execution was canceled by user
I also activated log in the DTS 2000 package and nothing is written in it..
So I guess I need to install some backward compatiblity files on the server as well, but which ones?
any idea?
Thanks
