IS Service failed to load user defined Configuration file

Microsoft.SQLServer.2008.IS_Service_failed_to_load_user_defined_Configuration_file_5_Rule (Rule)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

The configuration file for the Integration Services service could not be loaded when the services was started. By default, this file is named MSDtsSrvr.ini.xml. However, Integration Services can be configured by a registry setting to use any file name and file location.

Causes

The configuration file could not be loaded, because the file could not be found, or the specified file does not have the expected format. The file may be corrupted or the network share on which the file is located, is not accessible.

Resolutions

Provide either a configuration file in the default location, Microsoft\SQL Server\90\DTBinn, or the location that is indicated in the registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSDTS\ServiceConfigFiledefault

Verify that the configuration file is an XML file that adheres to the specified schema.

External

For more information about the schema of the configuration file, see the following Books Online topics: “Configuring the Integration Services Service”, “Configuring a Windows Firewall for Integration Services Access”, and "Managing Integration Services Service".
