BUG #: 971 (SQL Hotfix)



Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2005 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2005 fix release.



SUMMARY
This article describes the following about this hotfix release:
 * The issues that are fixed by the hotfix package
 * The prerequisites for installing the hotfix package
 * Whether you must restart the computer after you install the hotfix package
 * Whether the hotfix package is replaced by any other hotfix package
 * Whether you must make any registry changes
 * The files that are contained in the hotfix package



SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario. You schedule some Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS) packages to run as jobs. You do this by using SQL Server Agent. When the jobs are running, you log on to the console session on the computer by using Terminal Services from a remote client computer. In this scenario, some of the jobs may fail when you log off from the console session. Additionally, you receive the following error message:

Package  has been cancelled.

When you examine the job history, you find one of the following messages:

Message 1

The step was cancelled (stopped) as the result of a stop job request.

Message 2

The job was stopped prior to completion by (Unknown).

This problem only occurs when you are the last user to log off from the console session.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the dtexec command prompt utility is canceled when you log off from the console session.
