Since "SSIS-200" is not an official Microsoft error code in the standard DTS_E_... or 0x... format, this report covers the most common interpretations, focusing on SSIS 2008 versioning and a likely Deployment/Configuration error .
Technical Report: SSIS-200 Context & Resolution 1. Report Summary | Attribute | Details | | :--- | :--- | | Subject Code | SSIS-200 | | Primary Context | SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) | | Likely Interpretations | 1. SSIS 2008 (Version 10.0) Package 2. Error: Missing protection level or invalid package password (Error code suffix -200) | | Severity | Medium (Deployment failure or execution abort) | | Recommended Action | Verify package protection level, re-encrypt with consistent password, or redeploy using project deployment model. | 2. Interpretation A: SSIS 2008 Version Indicator
Meaning : The package was created with SQL Server 2008 (SSIS version 10.0). Impact : If you are trying to run this package on a newer SQL Server (2012+), you may encounter version compatibility warnings. Solution :
Upgrade the package by opening it in Visual Studio with SSDT for a newer version (e.g., 2017/2019). Use the SSIS Package Upgrade Wizard in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). ssis-200
3. Interpretation B: Error Code -200 (Protection Level / Password) Many SSIS runtime errors follow the pattern SSIS Error Code DTS_E_... . A numeric suffix like -200 often corresponds to:
"Failed to decrypt protected XML node 'DTS:Password' with error 0x8009000B 'Key not valid for use in specified state.'"
Common Causes:
The package has ProtectionLevel set to EncryptSensitiveWithPassword or EncryptAllWithPassword , but the wrong or no password was provided during execution. The package was moved from one machine/user to another, breaking the EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey protection.
Resolution Steps:
Open the .dtsx file in a text editor (or Visual Studio). Locate the <DTS:ProtectionLevel> tag. Change the protection level to DTSProtectionLevel.EncryptSensitiveWithPassword or DTSProtectionLevel.DontSaveSensitive (less secure but avoids password issues). If using a password, ensure it is passed correctly via: Since "SSIS-200" is not an official Microsoft error
DTExec : /DECRYPT password SQL Agent Job : Set the password in the job step configuration. Project Deployment Model : Use project environment variables or parameters.
4. Recommended Diagnostic Steps | Step | Action | | :--- | :--- | | 1 | Check the full error message in SSIS Catalog report or DTExec output. | | 2 | Open the .dtsx package in XML editor; inspect <DTS:ProtectionLevel> . | | 3 | Verify if the package is 2008 version ( <DTS:VersionBuild> 10.x). | | 4 | Redeploy the package with ProtectionLevel = DontSaveSensitive for testing. | 5.
