SSIS Proxy & Verbose Logging Cheat Sheet

πŸ› οΈ Running SSIS Job Steps as a Proxy

To run an SSIS package as a different user (e.g. `tasca\administrator`), follow these steps:

1. Create Credential
USE [master];
CREATE CREDENTIAL [ssis_cred_admin]
WITH IDENTITY = N'tasca\administrator',
     SECRET = N'YourDomainPasswordHere';
2. Create Proxy Account
USE [msdb];
EXEC sp_add_proxy 
    @proxy_name = N'SSIS Proxy Admin',
    @credential_name = N'ssis_cred_admin';
3. Grant Access to SSIS Subsystem
EXEC sp_grant_proxy_to_subsystem 
    @proxy_name = N'SSIS Proxy Admin',
    @subsystem_id = 11;  -- SSIS
4. (Optional) Grant Proxy to Specific Login
EXEC sp_grant_login_to_proxy 
    @login_name = N'MySqlAgentJobLogin', 
    @proxy_name = N'SSIS Proxy Admin';
5. Configure Job Step
  • Type: SQL Server Integration Services Package
  • Run as: SSIS Proxy Admin

πŸ” Enabling Verbose Logging for SSIS

1. Enable Logging in SSIS Package
  • Open SSIS package in Visual Studio/SSDT
  • Go to SSIS β†’ Logging…
  • Choose provider (Text file, SQL Server, SSISDB)
  • Enable events:
    • `OnError`, `OnWarning`, `OnPre/PostExecute`, `OnTaskFailed`
2. Enable Output File in SQL Agent Job Step
  • Job Properties β†’ Steps β†’ [Your Step] β†’ Edit
  • Go to Advanced tab
  • Set Output file:
    C:\SSISLogs\MyJobOutput.txt
    
3. Use DTEXEC Logging Parameters (if CmdExec)
dtexec /FILE "path_to_package.dtsx" /DECRYPT password /REPORTING E D I > "C:\SSISLogs\ssis_debug.txt"

/REPORTING Flags

Flag Meaning
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”-
N Errors only

πŸ“Š If Package is Deployed to SSISDB

  • Go to: SSMS β†’ SSISDB β†’ [Project] β†’ [Package]
  • Right-click β†’ Reports β†’ All Executions
  • Click execution β†’ Messages tab

πŸ§ͺ Troubleshooting Tips

  • Error:
    NT SERVICE\SQLSERVERAGENT does not have access to 'MAGNUS_SITD'
    
  β†’ The job step is likely not using the proxy correctly.
  • Test with `CmdExec` job step and `dtexec` for clearer logs.
  • Check Windows Event Viewer (Application log).
  • Check SQL Server Agent job history and output files.
  • Use `whoami` inside SSIS Script Task to verify run context.

🧼 Cleanup (Optional)

DROP CREDENTIAL [ssis_cred_admin];
EXEC sp_delete_proxy @proxy_name = N'SSIS Proxy Admin';
