I have a server that had SQL agent working on it, and running scheduled
jobs on set interval forever. Windows Server 2003, SQL 2000, most
current service packs on both.

I installed an instance of SQL 2005 on this server.

Now, when I look at Enterprise Manager & try to see what's happening
with the jobs, I see that the jobs are sitting out there & will kick off
when they are supposed to run, or I can kick them off manually.

However, now, they will run to certain steps in a job, and it will just
"hang". The jobs that hang are the ones that are running DTS jobs:

DTSRun /~Z0xC9C..........


These particular jobs haven't been changed in months, and were running
fine until the install of SQL 2005 on this server.

Any idea what's happening or how to fix it?

It may be a locking. You can really easy to detect in Current Activity
window, processes view, last two fields if you scroll to the right, 'blocked
by" and "blocking" columns.
