Scripting the Web Server Log Import DTS Task

The following script creates and runs the Web Server Log Import DTS task. You can use this script in two ways to create a package that contains the DTS task to run:

  • You can run the package on the command line by using the command DTSRun.exe. The file DTSRun.exe is automatically installed on your server when you install SQL Server.

  • You can copy the script into a Visual Basic script (.vbs) file and run it by using CScript as follows:

    [drive]:cscriptfilename.vbs

For a description of the Web Server Log Import DTS task, see Commerce Server DTS Tasks.
