Hi guys,
I have experienced a problem with a SQL Server 2005 SP1 upgrade, where hotfix.exe reported an error during the SSIS component upgrade, and then the SSIS service would not start back up. I have since attempted an additional SP1 upgrade on the server, which completed successfully, however the SSIS service still will not start. The server is running Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP1 with SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition (x86), which had been a clean RTM install prior to the SP1 upgrade attempt.
The following information was located in the C:\Windows\Hotfix\DTS9\Logs\DTS9_Hotfix_KB913090_0.log file (the servers name has been removed by me prior to posting):

There were also a number of "Failed to read associated hotfix build information for the following file:" entries in the log too.
If anyone can provide me with any additional information on this error, or any places to look to see why SSIS will no longer start (the NT event logs are not very descriptive in this situation), it would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Edward

SSIS will not start after SQL Server 2005 SP1 upgrade

I'm using SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition (x86) on Server 2003 SP1.
I have the same problem.
Start SP1 install.
Patch of Integration Services fails with "A recently applied update, KB913090, failed to install."
Screenshot
Patch install continued for the rest of the Products ok.
Checked the services after the patch completed (before reboot) and Integration Services service has login set to "Network Service". Changed it to "Local System" (just trying a different login as I have read that others with this problem had success changing the login to a domain acount, I thought I would try "Local System" first and see what happens) and rebooted.
Integration Service failed to start on reboot.
Went into services and Integration Service login was still set as "Network Service" left it as that.
Reapplied the patch.
Patch completes without error and all Products show as successful but when I look at the patch log file I notice that all the Products show "- Not Applied", Including Integration Service. This makes me wonder if the patch applied to the Integration Service at all (remember the patch failed on this the first time).
Went into services and changed the Integration Service to login as Domain Administrator.
Start the Integration Service and it starts ok.
I reboot the server and all the SQL services start ok.
Just on a hunch I re-run SP1. I still curious to see if Integration Services will show up as "- Success" in the SP1 log file.
During the reapplication of the patch I get the "A recently applied update, KB913090, failed to install." error same as the first time I ran the patch. This is with the service running as the Domain Administrator account before SP1 is started.
Screenshot
I go into services and the Integration Service now has it's login changed to "Network Service"
Somehow SP1 changed the service login from the Domain Administrator account to "Network Service"
Screenshot
I changed the login for the service back to the Domain Administrator account and the Integration Service starts fine.
My question is has SP1 been applied to the Integration Services Product Why does SP1 change the login of the service to "Network Service" during the patch. Integration Services will not start when the service login is set to "Network Service".
I'll bet that for the people who have changed the login for the Integration Service to a domain account, if they re-run SP1 it will blow up on the Integration Service with the "KB913090" error same as what is happening to me and others.
I can post log files if needed but it appears there is a problem with SP1.
For what its worth, SQL2005 SP1 installed just fine on my WinXP machine and the SSIS is running as "Network Service"

Funny... I'm not sure how to attach either. :) Are you able to paste the MSP file into the window I've responded to several other posts where people are able to paste in a good chunk of the log file. My guess is that your MSP log file contains a text string consisting of "return value 3". If you can paste in the portion of the log file surrounding that section (+/- 20 lines on each side), we may be able to track it down.
Thanks,

Thanks for the suggestion, Dan. Was anyone able to try changing the account to get the services to start again I haven't been able to repro this issue internally, so I appreciate the feedback from those who are hitting this.
Thanks,

Hi Samuel,
Thanks for the response. I am new to these forums, and can't seem to find a way to attach the log file. I tried pasting it into a comment and the forum page returned an error. Was there a specific part of the log file I could paste in for you

Hi Samuel,
I have sent through the logs just now as "PostID358514_Hotfix.zi_", I had to rename the ZIP file to sneak it through our mail system. Thanks for looking into this, and please let me know if I can provide you with any additional information,
Edward

Hi Edward, can you attach the MSP log from HotFixDTS\Files\sqlrun_dts.msp This may contain more debug info for us to help out.
Thanks,

Hi Ryan,
You are experiencing the exact same thing I have. Except when I set my service to a domain user that is a local admin, it still fails to start. The account is the same one that runs the SQL Server and SQL Agent services, so permissions should be fine. I might have another look tomorrow though, as the service startup account seems to have fixed this problem for everyone else.
Would be interested to see if this will be a confirmed bug, I have SQL Server 2005 servers in production, and am a little nervous at this stage about deploying the service pack, as I have seen two different hot fix errors on the two test servers I have tried so far,
Edward

Hi guys,
Thankyou for all of the responses, it looks like this may not be an isolated problem. I have tried setting the service startup account to a domain user, but my SSIS service still will not start. Samuel, I also looked in the log, and could not find any "return value 3" records in the log files. Can I please confirm which log file you wanted, under the C:\WINDOWS\Hotfix\DTS9\Logs directory, I have the following log files:
Thanks,
Edward

Thanks for the reply, Edward. We're been having a difficult time trying to repro this, so your logs would be very helpful. Can you zip up your logs from %windir%\hotfix folder as well as your event viewer logs and send them to me at samles at microsoft dot com
We will try to dig through them tonight and supply you with a response (which I'll post here once we have solved).
Thanks,

Experiencing exactly the same issue:
only difference in my scenario:
The Log extract looks equivalent to mine.
Help is really appreciated

That actually did the trick! Good Workaround, thanks Dan.
