SQL server agent SSIS error

Question

I get the following error when I execute my package as a SQL server agent job.

It is an SSIS 2008 package running on a SQL Server 2008 instance. My package security is DontSaveSensitive.

I don't even know how to begin fixing this error.

Where should I check first?

Log     Job History (MyJob)

It is an SSIS 2008 package running on a SQL Server 2008 instance. My package security is DontSaveSensitive.

You have to save the package with EncryptAllWithPassword using a password.

Then schedule it using SQL Agent Job as below :

"DriveLetter\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DTS\Binn\DTExec.exe" /FILE "SSIS_Package_Location\bin\Package.dtsx" /DECRYPT "PasswordStrong007" /CONFIGFILE "Location_to_Config_file_If_any\Config.dtsConfig" /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E

Now the user account that you use should have permissions on the database server instance.

You can check the permissions using below T-SQL :

SELECT [Login Type] = CASE sp.type
        WHEN 'u'
            THEN 'WINDOWS Login'
        WHEN 's'
            THEN 'SQL Login'
        WHEN 'g'
            THEN 'GRP'
        END
    ,convert(CHAR(45), sp.NAME) AS srvLogin
    ,convert(CHAR(45), sp2.NAME) AS srvRole
    ,convert(CHAR(25), dbp.NAME) AS dbUser
    ,convert(CHAR(25), dbp2.NAME) AS dbRole
FROM sys.server_principals AS sp
JOIN sys.database_principals AS dbp ON sp.sid = dbp.sid
JOIN sys.database_role_members AS dbrm ON dbp.principal_Id = dbrm.member_principal_Id
JOIN sys.database_principals AS dbp2 ON dbrm.role_principal_id = dbp2.principal_id
LEFT JOIN sys.server_role_members AS srm ON sp.principal_id = srm.member_principal_id
LEFT JOIN sys.server_principals AS sp2 ON srm.role_principal_id = sp2.principal_id

There are a set of 'special' privileges listed under the Security role of SSMS. One of those is BulkAdmin. While I don't root around in this kind of stuff much, the error above hints that the user account the SSIS package is running under needs either dbo privilege or membership in one of these roles. What database roles are assigned to CS\DmcSysManager?
