Execute Package Utility (dtexecui)

Applies to: SQL Server SSIS Integration Runtime in Azure Data Factory

Use the Execute Package Utility to run Integration Services packages. The utility runs packages that are stored in one of three locations: Microsoft SQL Server database, the SSIS Package Store, and the file system. This user interface, which can be opened from SQL Server Management Studio or by typing dtexecui at a command prompt, is an alternative to running packages by using the DTExec command prompt tool.

Packages execute in the same process as the dtexecui.exe utility. Because this utility is a 32-bit tool, packages run by using dtexecui.exe in a 64-bit environment run in Windows on Win32 (WOW). When developing and testing commands by using the dtexecui.exe utility on a 64-bit computer, you should test the commands in 64-bit mode by using the 64-bit version of dtexec.exe before deploying or scheduling the commands on a production server.

The Execute Package Utility is a graphical user interface for the DTExec command prompt tool. The user interface makes it easy to configure options and it automatically assembles the command line that is passed to the DTExec command prompt tool when you run the package from the specified options.

The Execute Package Utility can also be used to assemble command lines that you use when running DTExec directly.

To open Execute Package Utility in SQL Server Management Studio

  1. In SQL Server Management Studio, on the View menu, click Object Explorer.

  2. In Object Explorer, click Connect, and then click Integration Services.

  3. In the Connect to Server dialog box, enter the server name in the Server name list, and then click Connect.

  4. Expand the Stored Packages folder and subfolders, right-click the package you want to run, and then click Run Package.

To open the Execute Package Utility at the Command Prompt

  • In a command prompt window, run dtexecui.

The following sections describe pages of the Execute Package Utility dialog box.

General Page

Use the General page of the Execute Package Utility dialog box to specify a package name and location.

The Execute Package utility (dtexecui.exe) always runs a package on the local computer, even if the package is saved on a remote server. If the remote package uses configuration files that also are saved on the remote server, then the Execute Package utility may not locate the configurations and the package fails. To avoid this problem, the configurations must be referenced by using a Universal Naming Convention (UNC) share name like \\myserver\myfile.

Static Options

Package source
Specify the location of the package to run, using the following options:

Value Description
SQL Server Select this option when the package resides in Microsoft SQL Server. Specify an instance of SQL Server and provide a user name and password for SQL Server Authentication. Each user name and password adds the /USER username and /PASSWORD password options to the command prompt.
File system Select this option when the package resides in the file system.
SSIS Package Store Select this option when the package resides in the SSIS Package Store.

Each of these selections has the following set of options.

Close
Click to close the Execute Package Utility dialog box.

Dynamic Options

Package Source = SQL Server

Server
Type the name of the server where the package resides, or select a server from the list.

Log on to the server
Specify whether the package should use Windows Authentication or SQL Server Authentication to connect to SQL Server. Windows Authentication is recommended for better security. With Windows Authentication you do not have to specify a user name and password.

Use Windows Authentication
Select this option to use Windows Authentication and log on using a Microsoft Windows user account.

Use SQL Server Authentication
Select this option to use SQL Server Authentication. When a user connects with a specified login name and password from a non-trusted connection, SQL Server performs the authentication by checking to see if a SQL Server login account has been set up and if the specified password matches the one previously recorded. If SQL Server cannot find the login account, authentication fails, and the user receives an error message.
