Hi i am new to ssis, just now i started learning, I just created one package which will read the flat file content and will write to the another flat file by modifying some column values. i created the manifest file for the project using deployment utility. Now my problem is when i double click the manifest file, nothing happens ! iam not able to see the deployment wizard also i didnt see any error messages even if i click the dtinstall.exe the same its not triggering. Any idea ? or it may be environmet issue ? Pls help me ! Thanks in advance Shankar

Hi Shankar, Did you use the default value -- bin\Deployment ? And is it there? The symptoms do point to an installation issue, indeed.Arthur My Blog

you mean that even when you try to run DTSInstall.exe nothing appears? did you tried to right click on this file and run as administrator?http://www.rad.pasfu.com

Hi Shankar, Please check if this program appears in Task Manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del). Thanks, Khilit http://www.bigator.com

Hi Arthur Since im new to ssis i cant get you what is Default values ? i have onle 3 files in the folder "bin\deployment" (ie) config file.,manifestfile and package file. Regards Shankar

Hi Reza, Yes nothing appears.... when i click the DTSInstall just one command prompt is opening and close immediately. Shankar

Hi Khilit, yes i can see the DTSInstall in task manager. whether any issues with installation, also i tried to deploy in another machine using manifest file, in that system also the same behaviour! Its not only my package, even my fried created one dummy package and created the manifest file using deployment tool and tried to deploy, no action triggerd :-( Regards Shankar

there should be a problem in the installed file, maybe a repair or re-install helps, But you can use other methods of deployment like using DTUTIL; http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162820.aspxhttp://www.rad.pasfu.com
