Deploying Packages To Production
Apr 27, 2008
Hi
I need to move my packages from development to production.
In the development the database name is dev and in producton it is prod.
The username passwords are also different .
When i deploy my packages in production i dont think so it will work any pointers on how to make these things configurable like when the person deploying this package runs it he is prompted for the connection string and username and password
regards

We have a system here where we develop SSIS packages on a development server. I am trying to figure out the cleanest way to promote these changes to a production server where stored procedures/tables that are used in the package are not deployed yet.
When I switch the connection in the package to the production server there are alot of objects in the package that are "invalidated" because they are trying to verify existence of tables/columns. One example is outputing the results of a query to a text file. The text file destination gets a red X on it because it cant grab the columns from the source query (because that stored procedure doesnt exist yet)
Is there a best practices or something on how to deploy packages to a production system? I have tried turning off "ValidateExternalMetaData" with no success.
Thanks!

Was wondering, when performance changes have been made to existing code and deployed to a production environment, should anything be done regarding clearing old cache?
Is there a risk of the new code picking up cold or wrong cached query plans etc?
I know you can't clear the cache for the full system as it will affect everything else. But are the ways to target the changes? I.E run the new code with an OPTION (RECOMPILE) few times to build up new clean plans for it to use?
Or will the update stats see it is using bad plans and then start creating new clean ones over time?

hello experts,
i need help with deployment of reports (SSRS 2005). we need to deploy many reports (more then 100) on the production everytime we make changes in them.
"the problem is we cannot install visual studio on the server to open the project and use the deploy option from it" i tried using the script - PublishSampleReports.rss
but everytime i run i need to go and manully configure the report to map the shared datasource to it. any way to pass the information in the script itself, or is there any smart way to deploy on production.

Hello All,
I am having an issue deploying reports to my Production server via VS 2003 IDE.
The scenario is that I have a dev box with all 3 components installed on the same server(VS 2003, SQL 2000, sp3 , IIS and Report Server). I have no problem deploying to this Dev server. Now I need to deploy them to a different server(Release) in a different Domain. The Release implementation is, IIS and Report Services installed on one Server and SQL instance on a different server , but both IIS and SQL server are in the same domain. So in my VS 2003 IDE I choose a project/solution and then right click to Deploy I get an error " A connection could not be made to the report server <server URL>". My Solution Property page "Target Server URL " is pointed to this Release server virtual directory(http://Release:81/Reports). This Relase IIS web server has different web site, I installed the RS in the Default website.
I can browse RS server(http://Release:81/Reports) from anywhere via web and get to Site settings and all, But I cannot deploy from VS2003. Am I missing anything? Earlier I used to get at least log-in credentials to enter my UID and PW, as I provide them I never got anything back, it keeps asking me for UID and PW. Now I straight away get "Conection could not be made" error.
Any insights will be very helpfull.
Thank you
Ranjit

This seems like a rather simple questions that I've hesitated posting for a day now, but as of yet I can't really find an answer through my searches online.
My SSIS package is using a couple of the Konesans Transforms, this worked fine on my development box with my dev SQL server. The time has come now to deploy my package to my production SQL server. The instructions on installing the transforms on my dev box all uses Visual Studio to add the components.
Is there a way to deploy 3rd party (own my own) SSIS tasks with the package? Does it require a seperate install? How can I do it without Visual Studio?
Thanks for any help,
-Dan

Dear fellow developers,
I have successfully developed a Transact-SQL stored procedure which calls a CLR function, which calls a web service. I am using a Visual Studio 2005 SQL Server Project to perform the necessary magic.
Is there a neat way to deploy this stuff to a production server?
It is bad enough deploying the sp and function, but the web server proxy also needs to be changed to refer to the production web service.
This all looks very nasty and complicated.
Am I missing something?

Hi
I am fairly new to SSIS and I have a number of questions concerning deploying SSIS packages and Configuration Files
The SSIS packages will be deployed to three environments (DEV, TEST,PROD - this is a clustered environment) and will be executed by SQL Server Agent Jobs. There will be a need for different configuration values for each environment (file import directory, database server connectivity) , the configurations will be reused by mulitple packages.
I have decided to deploy the packages and configuration files to a file directory in the format
<<DRIVE LETTER>>SSIS PackagesPackages
<<DRIVE LETTER>>SSIS PackagesConfiguration Files
The questions are:
1) I storing the packages/config files to a file directory the best approach, or should I be deploying the packages to SQL or file ( C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server 90DTSPackages)
2) Is it best to have different configuration files for each environment (dDBConn_DEV.dtsconfig, dDBConn_TEST) or have the same config file and then change the values during deployment (via scripts).
3) What is the best way to deploy the packages and config files to the different environments (rather do it via scripts than the deployment utility)
4) Where is the best place to store the config files (I have one VS 2005 project per package, the confi files are used by multiple packages), TFS is our source control software
5) Does any one know of a good website to look at for best practice when deploying packages and config files
Regards
Tim

I am currently in the process of trying to migrate from DTS to SSIS. SSIS is totally new to me and I am trying to put together a mechanism for easily moving packages between our Development, Test, and Production environments. I have done some investigating into using Configurations to accomplish this. What I basically need to do it update my Connection objects when moving between environments without having to recompile. The optimal solution is that the Connection objects dynamically update, but I'm not sure this is possible. I think some of this could be done with Configurations, but one catch is that I need to have the packages running on both environments.I have been able to put this all together to figure out a good solution for this and I was hoping some of you on the forums could give me some ideas.

Hi,
I have developed about 20 to 30 packages that are executed on a specific order by a parent package that iterates a foreach cycle...
Has in development server all packages run just fine... when deployed to the production server and executed the first child package to run gives error and says that the logging text file was unable to find the file??? It was supposed for the log to create and send information to the file right? So i think this is a little bit weird...
Any idea of what is going on here?

Hello,
We have been conducting some testing regarding package deployment and SQL Server based configuration. It seems there is a problem that was documented in an MS Feedback entry (
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=126797
)
I searched for a viable answer, work-around, or hotfix that would address this issue but found none.
The jist is that a package that uses SQL Server based configuration must have an xml-based configuration entry to "re-point" the SQL Server based configuration connection manager to the deployment target server. We cannot use environment variable or registry as this is against internal policy. The problem is that even though the xml based config is specified first in the list of package configurations it does not get applied first at run-time. So, when the package runs from a SQL Server Agent job the package's connection manager for the configuration entries is not updated.
The package runs correctly through BIDS. You can change the connection string in the .dtsConfig file and the SQL Server based package configuration is obtained from the correct source.
Environment is SQL Server Enterprise Edition 64-bit w/ SP1, Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Ed. 64-bit.
Does anyone have any experience with this issue? Know any hotfixes, other work-arounds?
Thanks in advance!

I have migrated several (7) DTS packages to SSIS in a development environment. In this environment these packages all work as designed. I am now in the process of placing the .dtsx files on the production server and scheduling jobs around them.
I am encountering problems in 3 of these 7 packages. I get the following error:
Message
The job failed. The Job was invoked by User <domainuser>. The last step to run was step 1 (Create and Transfer Credentialling Data).
This is not what I would call very informative. I have opened the dtsx files in question in BIDS on the production server and each has the following error reported:
Error loading <name>dtsx; Failed to decrypt protected XML node "PassWord" with error 0x8009000B" Key not valid for use in specified state." You may not be authorized to access this information. This error occurs when there is a cryptographic error. Verify that the correct key is available.
I have looked at the package setting "Protection Level" and all seven packages have the same setting: EncryptSensisitveWithUserKey
Each of the connections within the packages have been defined to utilize Windows Authentictation. And the jobs are set to run under the SQL Agent Account.
What I find most puzzeling is that each of these packages are defined exactly the same and some work correctly and others do not.
Thanks for taking the time help me with this issue.

Hi Guys!
I have created a big list of packages, some calling others. They all work fine from my computer using Visual Studio.
When I try to deploy them (building them with deployment turned on and running them either directly from Management Studio or as a job) I get the errors with the password of connection strings. From what I read so far its the encryption process that kills it.
I have tried to add a password to some packages, but it still didnt work (only when run directly on my computer in management studio after deploying to SQL Server, but not as a job).
I have tried to change ProtectionLevel to SecurityStorage, wouldnt let me save in Visual Studio (I understand it is ot allowed in VS because you are saving to File System, how the hell am I supposed to save it to anything else? why is it showing there if its not even valid?).
If anyone can please give me the steps to doing it properly, that would be awesome. I simply need to run the packages from SQL Server! thats all! I have no idea why it has to be soooo difficult :/

I've run into a problem with SSIS packages wherein tasks that write or copy files, or create or delete directories, quit execution without any hint of an error nor a failure message, when called from an ASP.NET 2.0 application running on any other machine than the one where the package was created from. By all indications it appeared to be an identity/permissions problem.
Our application involves a separate web server and database server. Both have SQL Server 2005 installed, but the application server originally only had Integration services. The packages are file system-deployed on the application server, and are called using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime methods. For all packages that involve file system tasks, the above problem occurs.
When the above packages are run using the command prompt (either DTEXEC or DTEXECUI) the packages execute just fine. This is expected since we are using an administrative account. However when a ShellExecute of the same command is called from ASP.NET, the same problem occurs.
I've tried giving administrative permissions to the ASPNET worker process user to no avail.
I have likewise attempted to use the SQL Server Agent job approach but that approach might not be acceptable for our clients since it means installing SQL Server 2005 Database services on the application server.
I have read the relevant threads in this forum, namely http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1044739&SiteID=1 and http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=927084&SiteID=1 but failed to find any solution appropriate for our set up.
Anybody got any idea on how to go about this?

We manage some SSIS servers, which has only SSIS and SSIS tools installed on them and not the sql server DB.
SSIS packages and configuration files are deployed on a NAS. We run the SSIS packages through DTEXEC by logging in to the server.
We want to allow developers to run their packages on their own on the server, but at the same time we dont want to give them physical access on the server i.e we do not want to add them into RDP users list on server properties. We want them to allow running their packages remotely on the server.
One way We could think of is by using powershell remoting and we are working on that. But is there any other way or any tool already present for the same.

Hi all
Our data management system currently runs DTS packages using DTSPKG.dll.
I am currently looking at the possibliity of replacing the DTS packages and SQL 2000 with DTSX packages using SSIS in SQL 2005.
Do I need a new dll? or will the current dtspkg.dll handle the new DTSX packages?
Many thanks in advance!

Hi All,
I am adding a reporting suite to our application based upon SSRS 2005 and I am looking for a comprehensive example of how I go about deploying this.
Essentially I want to automate the entire process:
Create the DB, Create the Virtual Dirs, add my reports etc.
I have looked at the documentation and it is limited to say the least. I went down the route of attempting to script the whole thing and after 3 days of it I was still stuck on a few problems so I was hoping that someone knows of an example of how to go through all of these processes.
An example of the problems I ran into is that the "CreateVirtualDir" method on the reporting services WMI objects simply didn't work. It didn't return an error but it didn't create the Dir either!
The documentation around this method and most others is ambiguous and contains no examples.
I then went down the route of using IIS WMI to create the dirs which worked but then I was unable to update the Reporting Services configuration to pick this up without resorting to changing the config files directly - and even when I did this they didn't always seem to be picked up.
So at present instead of giving our guys in deployment a 1 click install they have a 9 page document explaining the install and set up of Reporting services from start to finish.
Any help or more thorough documentation would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Dhugal.
PS: Just to add I have already altered our install to install the RS module along with SQL Server so that bit is covered. I just want to script the entire configuration process.

We're about to ship a product, and we've used access to develop it to make things easier, but we want to use MSDE.
I've never had any luck with MSDE -
1. I can import the database into a sql server database in enterprise manager, is there a way to import a database into a msde database in interprise manager?
2. what would I do in the installer? I need to install the msde engine right? and then run sql scripts on the engine?

I am looking for an effective technique for this scenario:
We have a program that generates 200 custom Paradox databases every night, and these are shipped to 200 sales offices (on Win98 machines). We would like to convert from Paradox to MSDE (baby SQL).
The data is relatively large (some offices > 100 MB) so efficiency is important, both for data generation, data transmission and/or data loading. Currently we zip files so the large 100MB ones are <20MB during transmission.
Is it best to: 1) output flat files, zip them, transmit, and then have an automatic load procedure (using bcp) on the Win98 clients; or 2) create the MSDE databases locally, zip them, transmit, and then db_attach the database file on the Win98?
Has anyone a successful experience doing this sort of thing?

Hi Well this is my first post on this forum, in fact I have not even used SQL Server yet!
My question is.... I have been asked to produce an application which will be a VB6 application with an SQL Server database behind it. I would like to be able to put the application along with the database on to a CD and run them directly from the CD once it is distributed. So the question I guess is can this be done with SQL Server i.e. can a table be exported in a format which will allow it to be queried in a standalone fashion? Maybe I have not explained myself properly but I welcome any questions which will help clarify my problem.
Thanks Red

So it creates a folder with the project name and all the packages in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSPackagesProject
While executing the package on Server what should be thesource of the Package? I mean should it refer to the solution file->..dtsx
or
BinDeployment->packages
or

All I want is to have something so I can view the report I've created in HTML or PDF form, something that was advertised when I downloaded the reporting services.

I've got a report project with a few reports in I want in the root target directory. I also want to create several folders and put reports in those. The problem is I don't see any way to create a report folder in VS. I also don't see any way to pick the deployment path of a single reprot in VS. This makes me think I'll have to create a different Report Project in VS for each folder!! (this sucks). Does anyone have an idea or suggestion here?

Newbie question for which I ask your patience:
I had set my ProjectpropertiesTarget Server URL some time ago and now need to deploy additional files in specific folders and cannot remember how to map a url back to a file location. I have searched for the deployed files on target server and have not found them.
Can someone explain how SSRS deploys; does it physically place files on the target server (.pdfs)? Suggest how I can map the URL back to a directory location on some server?
thanks, MDM
