Oracle Provider failing when scheduled with SQL Agent
Hi
I have created a package that extracts data from an Oracle 10g database into a database on SQL Server 2005 SP2.
This package run fine when run inside BIDS and also if run from DTExecUI or DTExec
(This is done while logged in using the same domain account that runs both the SQL Service and the SQL Agent Service. This account is also a local admin on the box.)
When I try to schedule this with SQL Server Agent (running under the SQL Agent Service Account) it returns an MSDAORA error
"Oracle client and network components were not found"
The same error occurs if I try to use CmdExe step to try and execute the DTExec command.
The interesting part however is that I use a lower privaleged proxy account then
(a) Executing the package directly still fails but
(b) Running a DTExec command will succed
Can anyone provide an explanation for this behaviour. While I can work around this "feature" by using the DTExec and a proxy account it does make the packages harder to configure/debug and defeats many of the configuration advantages provided by SSIS
TIA
