title: sqldumper error leads to C drive getting full
body: <p>I've installed Microsoft SQL Server 2019 following <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aff9jwSPRTU&amp;list=LLfbVoI77Ues8vJH7egp6q5Q&amp;index=3&amp;t=0s" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this guide</a>. At 10:30 it was advised to change the User database directory, the User log directory and the backup directory from default to directories on drive D. </p>
  
  <p>Now I got dump files being generated at <code>C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL15.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Log\Polybase\dump</code></p>
  
  <p>Here's the snippet from <code>SQLDUMPER_ERRORLOG.log</code>: </p>

  <p>I looked up the error and found this <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41168118/sqldumper-error-when-trying-to-run-dtexec-with-project-deployment-model">question</a>. The answer says to change the package path in the <code>\package</code> parameter.</p>
  
  <p>How do I find where to change the package parameters?</p>
