My SSIS 2008 R2 package processing 55 excel files successfully in BIDS, but when I run the SSIS pacakge under Sql Serve Agent the job hangs with about 25 excel files processed. I notice their were a 15 excel.exe processes in the Windows Task Manager Processes tab. Does anyone have a solution? I would appreciate anyone's help.

Thanks

Run this on the server:

CODE

SELECT *
FROM msdb.dbo.syssubsystems;
This controls how many 'max worker threads' can exist at one time.  I suggest increasing the SSIS max_worker_threads value.  Try doubling it to see if that resolves the issue.

Hello SQLBill,

The max worker thread on my server is 512.  I ran this script below:

select max_workers_count from sys.dm_os_sys_info


Is this a low number or should I increase more. The SSIS package running under sql server agent can only process up to 25 excel files without hanging. If I go more than 25 excel files job hangs.
If any solutions please let me know.
