The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SQL Server 2000 (all editions)
This article was previously published under Q290077
BUG #: 352074 (SHILOH_BUGS)
SYMPTOMS
When a scheduled job runs a Data Transformation Services (DTS) package that instantiates a Windows Scripting Host shell object, the Dtsrun.exe program may stop responding (hang). The actual package logic completes, but the Dtsrun.exe process does not complete.
RESOLUTIONTo resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for SQL Server 2000. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the

290211 INF: How to Obtain the Latest SQL Server 2000 Service Pack
WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, set all ActiveX scripting tasks that invoke the Windows Scripting Host shell object to execute on the main package thread. The fix provided by SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 1, however, corrects this behavior even when the ActiveX script tasks execute on worker threads.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in SQL Server 2000. This problem was first corrected in SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 1.
