KB2510788 - FIX: Success message is incorrectly logged when a distributed transaction of an SSIS 2005 package, of an SSIS 2008 package or of an SSIS 2008 R2 package is aborted

Symptoms

When the distributed transaction of a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS 2005) package, of a Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Integration Services (SSIS 2008) package or of a Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Integration Services (SSIS 2008 R2) packageis aborted, a success message that resembles the following may be incorrectly logged in the SQL Server log file:

Information: 0x4001100B at Data Flow Task: Committing distributed transaction started by this container.Warning: 0x8004D019 at Data Flow Task: The transaction has already been aborted.SSIS package "<package name>.dtsx" finished: Success.

Cause

This issue occurs because the HRESULT values of the distributed transaction are mapped to warning messages incorrectly in SSIS 2005 or in SSIS 2008. When the warnings are generated, the task or parent container is not stopped. Therefore, the execution of the package may be incorrectly reported as "success" even though an error has aborted the distributed transaction.

More Information

Therefore, the parent container or task fails unless failure is prevented by using the value of the MaximumErrorCount, FailParentOnFailure, or FailPackageOnFailure property.One of the following messages is added to the logged event sequences:

DTS_I_COMMITTINGTRANSACTION = 0x4001100B = Committing distributed transaction started by this container. Or, DTS_I_ABORTINGTRANSACTION = 0x4001100C = Aborting the current distributed transaction.
Warning: 0x8004D019 at Data Flow Task: The transaction has already been aborted.Note The HRESULT value in this warning message is not limited to 0x8004D019. The HRESULT value might be any Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) error code that is described in the following website:

General information about COM error codes
DTS_E_GENERIC = 0xC0010014 = One or more error occurred. There should be more specific errors preceding this one that explains the details of the errors. This message is used as a return value from functions that encounter errors.
