I have the latest SSDT BI for VS 2015, which clearly states "This release supports SQL Server 2016 through SQL Server 2005,
and provides the design environment for adding features that are new in SQL Server 2016."
Is there anything specific I need to do to actually deploy from Visual Studio 2015 + SSDT BI into my SQL Server 2012?
When I try to deploy a package from Visual Studio, I get error:
Could not find stored procedure 'SSISDB.catalog.deploy_packages'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2812)
When I try from SSMS 2012 to "Import Packages..." my package fails with this message:
The package failed to load due to error 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.". This occurs when CPackage::LoadFromXML fails.
In the xml report, the error message details say "<Message>Could not find stored procedure 'SSISDB.catalog.deploy_packages'.</Message>"
When I look at my DB Schema, indeed there is no such stored procedure.
So: How can I get my package deployed?
UPDATE: I tried deploying the project. This worked to get the project into MSSQL via Visual Studio 2015 "Deploy" menu item, however the project fails validation with error message:
Error: Package migration from version 8 to version 6 failed with error 0xC001700A "The version number in the package is not valid. The version number cannot be greater than current version number.".
By the way, all these errors are coming from following the steps in SSIS Tutorial "Lesson 6: Using Parameters with the Project Deployment Model".
Thanks in advance!
