SSIS error during Job execution

Question

I have a job created to run a SSIS package. I had problems with package security for a while, but managed to set the package password correctly and that error disappeared. This next error was not occurring last night, but today I can't seem to get rid of it. If I run the package independently via BIDS or by connecting to my Integration Services it runs successfully.

Any ideas what would cause this error when it is run as a job, but not when run as a package?

A ComponentVersionMismatchException is being thrown here. The other errors are from SSIS trying to upgrade the metadata for the ADO.NET Destination component so that it's compatible with the version on the server. The message says this as well:

The version of component "ADO NET Destination" (40) is not compatible with this version of the DataFlow. [[The version or pipeline version or both for the specified component is higher than the current version. This package was probably created on a new version of DTS or the component than is installed on the current PC.]]

When you execute a package as a job, it is executed on the server machine. When you execute a package through BIDS, it is executed locally on your machine. You'll need to ensure that the versions of SQL Server on your local machine and the server match. To see the version information, you can execute the following from Management Studio:

SELECT  SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'), SERVERPROPERTY ('edition')
