SSIS Package Deployment In Different Environment
Sep 21, 2007
Hi, All,
I am using Package Configuration to simplify SSIS package deployment process. All the configuration information are stored in XML file. So far so good, However, since I have many, 20, packages. For each package, there is one configuration file to it. During the deployment process, I have dynamically modify connecting string (server name, DB name) to new ones. It ends up 20 or more modification and it's eaily for me to make mistake. Is there any workaround such as setting up environment variable, I guess, to allow me only modify once and apply it to all the packages?
TIA,
John

I have deployed a project with multiple packages to SSIS 2012 db. I am able to configure the project parameters fine. But, I am not able to replace the package variable values with the 'Environment' variables.

Hi all,
I am trying to write a simple application which simplifies package deployment to SSIS. Basically it allows one to select a folder which contains dtsx-packages and the it would upload those files to the MSDB in a folder of choice on the MSDB.
To do this I thought it would be nice to use the Integration Services API (Microsoft.SQLServer.Dts) and use the objects DTS.Runtime.Application and DTS.Runtime.Package.
The result would be this in a nutshell:
Dim dtsApp As New Dts.Runtime.Application
Dim pkg As Dts.Runtime.Package
pkg = dtsApp.LoadPackage(File.FullName, Nothing) --loading the package from the filesystem
dtsApp.SaveToSqlServerAs(pkg, Nothing, strPackagePath + PackageName, strDestinationServer, Nothing, Nothing)
However if I try to execute this the I end up with an Strace-assertion error.
Searching for that error lead me to the following post: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2173800&SiteID=1
After some more research I found the cause of my problems. I only had SSMS (The workstation components) installed on my development-pc. Someone suggested that installing Integration Services would solve it and after testing this it indeed solved it, but this still didn't solve my problem. The tool I am writing is going to be used on production-workstations which only have the Workstation components installed and installing Integration Services there isn't likely going to happen. Mostly because having SSIS installed locally doesn't have a function; the packages will be deployed to a remote server right after they are loaded from the file.
Trying to find an alternative lead me to Dtutil which miraculously enough does seem to work if given the right parameters, but to me this feels like a dirty solution. I feel it shouldn't be necessary to resort to using System.Diagnostics.Process to manually start Dtutil in the background when I have this nice api specifically designed for SSIS.
Is there anyone here that has a suggestion or an idea how to deploy packages using the Dts.Runtime.Application without installing SSIS on my local workstation?

Hi,
I try to deploy a SSIS Package with the method SaveToDtsServer of Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application.
My C# project is to deploy a SSIS Package in a Setup Application (My project has a Installer Class).
It's work several times, but suddenly It stop working without change in my code.
There's a System.BadImageFormatException : Message="Invalid access to memory location. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800703E6)"
Source="Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS"
StackTrace:

pPackage, IDTSEvents pEvents, String sPackagePath, String sServerName)
at TestPackageDeployment.Form1.button1_Click(Object sender,
EventArgs e) in
D:DEVTestPackageDeploymentTestPackageDeploymentForm1.cs:line 41
I try the SaveToSqlServer and SaveToSqlServerAs, but it doesn't Work, it's return the same exception. On the other hand, the method CreateFolderOnDtsServer works perfectly.
It' happen to me on a Win2003 and WinXp. I Use SQL Server 2005 + VS 2005.
here is my code :
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;

}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

I have designed a few SSIS packages in the BI Development studio and deployed them to the msdb database of my SQL server using the generated Deployment Utility.
They deployed and executed just fine, but, I would like to better organize them into folders within the msdb storage area.
Is there a way to tell the project or the generated Deployment Utility to deploy the packages to a specific folder within the SSIS Packages / msdb storage area on the SQL server?
Thank you for any help!

Hi,
Is it possible to determine the date a SSIS package was last updated?
Our packages change on a regular basis so being able to determine the date that it was last updated is very useful. I can only find the creation date.
Cheers,
Melissa

This is regarding one package where we are trying to deploy the package through €œSql Server deployment€? using .dtsx, .dtsConfig and manifest files, but after deployment the package is not found in €œmsdb€?. Instead it is reflecting in €œfile system€? folder. The same behavior is observed repeatedly when we tried to deploy the package.
We have seen such behavior only in this package. Please help us in solving the above scenario.

Hi:
After moving my deployment folder to the Target Server, I run the Installation Wizard. As I move next, I am missing the window which is supposed to allow me to set package config values as stated in MSDN:
"If the package includes configurations, you can edit updatable configurations by updating values in the Value list on the Configure Packages page."
Source: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141802.aspx
Does anyone know why I am not seeing it? In my deployment bundle which I have moved over has currently 3 files:
1) SSIS Deployment Manifest
2) SSIS Package
3) SSIS Config File
Again, I double click on SSIS Deployment Manifest, and it starts fine. I go thru the steps for File System Deployment, and then it prompts for installation folder path. After that, it takes me directly to validation. Why is it not showing me the Configure Packages Page as described in the MSDN Documentation. Please advise. Thanks.

Hi,
I have issues with the Connection Manager in the SSIS package when using package configs thru environment variable.
Here goes..
SSIS package1:
Connections used: devcon1, devcon2 - Dev Env and testcon1,testcon2 - Test Env. Now using all four. Ideally either devcons or testcons should reside at a time.
Environment variable:
Pckg_config = <location of config file which has testcon1 and testcon2>
I need to use only devcon1 and devcon2 in Dev env. In test i need to use only testcon1 and testcon2
Hence i set the values of devcons in devEnv.dtsconfig and testcons in testEnv.dtsconfig
Now i remove both testcons from ssis package. If i try to run the Test Env and my testcons which are marked in testenv.dtsconfig are not found as connections in ssis package then the ssis gives error wanting for those connections.
SSIS maintains the connections in the Connection Manager per package. Although internally it is a pool of connections.
Ideally i should be able to play around with the connection at run time. My package now works, if it is deployed with all the devcons and testcons together. However, ideally it should be either devcons or testcons. I am trying to be more explicable to reach to the masses here.
Am i doing something wrong? All your efforts in solving this puzzle will be greatly appreciated. Please participate.
Thanx,Tushar

We are using Package configuration with environment variables. The problem we are having that if we try to open project from other PC (PC 2) it gives the error:
Error 1 Error loading F0005.dtsx: Failed to decrypt protected XML node "DTS: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. z:visual studio 2005projectssales data martextract to staging areaF0005.dtsx 1 1
We are using environment variable named DWConfig and have configured correct path in each PC. If we edit package configuration in PC 2 and go thru the same procedures without any amendments the errors is removed for that PC and if, again we OPEN that project in PC 1 it gives same error and if we go thru package configuration wizard again error is removed.
Can any one tell me is there any solution of that problem?
Note: Our project is saved on server (neither PC 1 nor PC 2)
regards,
Anas.

Okay - this one is driving me batty.
I have a package that uses an environment variable package configuration of value X for a connection string. I close BIDS. I change the value of the environment variable to value Y. I open BIDS and the package, and the value of my connection string is Y. I save my package with the new configuration. if I look at the dtsx file, I see connection string with value Y. All as expected.
I move the package to my server (I've tried Import package from SSMS, using the deployment manifest, and save copy as). On the server, the environment variable is set to value Y. If I run the package or export it; however, the value of my connection string is X!
Does anyone have any suggestions of things to try or some reason that this is not working?
Thanks,
Jessica

Hello All -
Have you ever seen the error message below?
Description: The package path referenced an object that cannot be found: "Package.Variables[User::<variable_name>].Properties[Value]". This occurs when an attempt is made to resolve a package path to an object that cannot be found. End Warning Could not load package "<package_name>" because of error 0xC0010014.
Basically, I create a package variable under my User Namespace and this variable will tell what server the SSIS is running at. We first create a system variable locally and the SQL Server will have a variable with exactly the same name so that the server name will be evaluated through the package variable/package configurations when the SSIS is executing from a SQL Server job.
This way we do not hard code the server name... We always succeeded on doing that with DTS as well as SSIS packages but just now my package is running into this issue...
Since I did not change ANYTHING in the package, I am guessing this is not programming related and that something was changed in the server. However, the DBA was helpless over here and I have no clue of what this error means.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Gabriel.

We're attempting set the ConnectionString for our configuration database connection manager from an environment variable, but SSIS seems to ignore the environment variable value. Deployment process:
Create the Connection Manager
Create an Environment Variable type configuration with the Target Property: Package.Connections[acConfigDBManager].Properties[ConnectionString]
Build the package
Copy the package and the manifest from the project's inDeployment folder to a folder on the server
From the SSIS server's console, Import the package from the File System.
Run the package, after first inspecting the ConnectionString in the Connection Managers collection
In all cases, the ConnectionString variable for our configuration database is the value in the package at build time.
So far we've tried the following variations:
confirmed that the spelling and case of the environment variable is identical on the XP development computer and the Win2003 server.
restarted SQL Server and SSIS
rebooted the Win2003 server.
built the package with a blank ConnectionString value in the connection manager
re-imported the package, overwriting the old one
deleted the old package before reimporting
renamed the package and imported
run imports from SQL Management Studio from the server console
assign the connection string from an arbitrary system environment variable
assign the ServerName and use an expression to build ConnectionString
What now? Has anyone been able to set a Connection Manager property from an environment variable?

hi all!
This is my problem. My package executes fine when i set the connection string with the same database where i execute the query. If i execute with another database connection stirng if fails bacause while executing the pacakge it trys to access the same connection string at design mode.
when i try to execute through cmd prompt by setting conn <new database connection string> it fails.
Is package configuration is the only solution. how can i change conn string depending on different server?
Any help would be appreciated.

I've been searching for an answer to my question quite some time now and I've not been able to figure it out yet.
Situation:
- I've created a SSIS package containing a bulk insert task.
- I've added a package configuration containing the appropriate connection manager (i.e. dev, beta or live)
- CreateDeploymentUtility = true
- I've copied the deployment folder to our beta server and I started the manifest file to install the package to the sql 2005 server, after that I specified the config file location and changed the value so the approriate connection manager is used.
- When I execute the package from the sql server the package doesn't read the value from the xml config file, it uses the connection which was originally specified in the package, whereas when I run the package from my BIDS it is reading the value from the xml config file?
I can't seem to figure out why this is happening? am I missing something here?
Thnx.

I'm slowing coming up to speed on configurations and deployment.
I have 2 questions for this thread.
Question 1:
When I create the deployment manifest (the file that gets created when I build) and then run it on the destination machine, there's a step in the wizard that asks for a folder location. The exact page on the wizard is called "Select Installation Folder", just to make it clear what I'm talking about.
What significance does this folder have? I noticed that when I was using the XML config option, the config file appeared there (and nothing else). When I use the SQL Server config option, I didnt see anything going into that folder. Are these the expected results in each case?
The description on that wizard page says, "The installer will install the SSIS package dependencies in the following folder." I'm not sure what this means and if I should expect more than the XML config file to appear in there (in the case when I used XLM config option). What are the "dependencies", other than the config file, that the wizard is saying that the folder will have?
Question 2:
I've been playing with deployment and there's a bunch of "play" packages that are on my test server. How do I clean these up?

Hi,
I have a standalone SSIS package that I wish to deploy from the file system, as opposed to SQL Server deployment.
Anyways, I was wondering if there's a command line utility for running SSIS packages on an ad hoc basis? What I was thinking was that I would put the call to the command line in a stored procedure using xp_cmdshell, so that the package can be called that way.
Am I thinking about this correctly?
Thanks

I went thru the online tutorial, but I was not able to finish "Deploying Packages Tutorial" because for some reason the sample packages they had use in the tutorial came up with errors when I added them to my project.
EDIT: See the following post for the trouble I ran into using the sample tutorial. http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=3145471&SiteID=1&mode=1
But I read thru the rest and I was able to get the gist of it and I did a simple example on my own.
And here are some questions.
In my example, I have one package that does a simple load from an XL spreadsheet into a database table. The package also writes some kickout rows (bad data) to a flat file. To keep the example simple, I configure just one value in the .dtsConfig file, and that is the server name.
Question:
(1) According to the tutorial, after I've created the deployment bundle I'm supposed to copy this over to the destination computer and run it there. Can't I just run it from my computer and choose where to install the package in the Package Installation Wizard? That's what I did and it worked and I am able to see the package on the target SQL Server. So, I'm wondering why I need to copy the demployment bundle to the target and run it there.
(2) In the Package Installation Wizard, there is a step called "Select Installation Folder". And the description on this page says, "The installer will install SSIS package dependencies in the following folder". Without knowing what this is going to do, I just picked a folder, and finished out the wizard. When I go and check that folder after the wizard is completed, I see that the .dtsConfig file got put there (on my local machine). What implication does this have? (I don't know how to schedule a job in SQL Server Agent, so I havent actually tried running the deployed package.) I'm going to guess the package is not going to run because the config file ended up in my machine.
(3) In my example, I could've also configured the connection string for the XL file and the flat file directory for the kickout data. But since the file names are a part of the connection string and the file names are likely to remain the same, but the directory locations may change, should I handle this with system variables? (Where the variable will contain the directory path only)

For the past few months I've been developing an DW and ETL with SQL
2005 / SSIS. My packages are being deployed to a SQL
Server. Although in the end game we will have a
Dev/Staging/Production environments, I would still like to archive
production packages when we push staging to production.
Essentially I would like to archive the last X packages that were
deployed to production where X is a reasonable number (3 - 5). I
don't necessarily need to have them accessible to run. One of the
purposes is to have another safeguard should we miss anything in user
testing and need to roll back a deployment.
I am utilizing VSS and we will have backups running on the production
server, but I would prefer to have a archive that is a little more
accessible.
I just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on how to extract/archive
production packages when the push is made. I could easily develop
an app that queries the MSDB and exports the packages to the file
system.
Anyone have any thoughts?

Hello,
I have two SSIS packages in the same project with, for each one, a (XML) configuration file.
I have created a Deployment Utility file (.SSISDeploymentManifest).
My problem is that, when I execute that utility file, I can't deploy more than one configuration file, the UI only ask for one.
Is anyone can help me ?
Thanks a lot.

The application's deployment package needs to be downloaded from a web site on the internet. The end user locations do not have SQL2000 or MSDE...some have access.
I want to know if my deployment package can include the MSDE software? Or, can anyone offer ideas on the EASIEST way for these small offices to get MSDE installed on each of their servers so that my ASP.NET applications will connect to via ado.net.
Thanks for any ideas.

My parent package calls packages stored in the file system. While developing, I would like to call packages in the project bin directory. In production, I would like to call packages in a different development. Is this possible?
I can change the package connection string with an expression that refers to user variables PackageLocation1 or PackageLocation2. I would like to do this automatically. Is this something that should be done at deployment time? Or is there a run time value that I can check and conditionally use PackageLocation1 or PackageLocation2?
Development and deployment is done on the same server, so the same enivronment variable value would be used in an indirect configuration. Same thing applies to a file configuration.
Another question: Is it possible to set up a different Installation Folder for use during deployment? Every time I deploy, I have to navigate the folders, you can't even paste in the folder name.

I have a very odd problem. I have a package which uses some custom tasks that were written in C#. When the package is deployed to our production server, *some* of the property values for *some* of the tasks are cleared. For example, I have these five tasks:
FP Export File Logger
FP Import File Logger
FP Import Table Logger
FP Instance Logger
FP Job Reader
All of them inherit (of course) from Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Task. All of them have custom members (some similar, some different), and of course, different implementation (though they are mostly the same). This test package has one instance of each of the different tasks.
As I said above, when we deploy to our production server, *some* of the property values for *some* of the tasks are cleared -- but when deployed to our dev server, everything remains intact.
Here is what is cleared:
- On 4 of the 5 tasks, the Description property (inherited by Task) is cleared, but the other one remained intact
- On 3 of the 5 tasks, the Connection property (custom property in all tasks) is cleared, but the other two remained intact
- 3 of the tasks have other string properties that were set, and all of these were cleared
We can reproduce this on two different production servers, and these two servers have some different configurations, suggesting these would not be the culprit:
- They have different service packs (one is build 2047, the other build 3042)
- One has the custom SSIS components installed (in the GAC), the other one does not
Our development server, where the package is deployed as expected, has build 2047 w/ the components installed.
Here are the packages, where you can compare and see the differences (using a text comparison tool):
Dev-GOOD.xml
Prod-BAD.dtsx
These were created after being deployed by importing within a Visual Studio SSIS project from the server.
Any suggestions would be *greatly* appreciated, as we are totally stumped as to why this is happening.
EDIT: Additional clues, this package is deployed to the MSDB. If it's deployed to the File System, it remains unmodified.
Thanks in advance.

We are in the process of setting up a shared staging/development enviroment in which multiple developers will deploy their packages for testing etc.
The plan is to allow the developers to remote in to execute their packages, but we are worried about the concurrency limit of 2 users per terminal services.
It is my understanding that you cannot execute packages remotely (ie you have to be on THAT box to kick it off. (FYI - we are not planning on using SQL Agent at this point - That will be with DBAs in UA)
Please let me know what options are available/best practices...

Hallo,
I'm currently strugling with the setup of our packages for deployment to a new environment.
We are working with a master/detail package setup. One master package is created that will call all child packages. In the master package we don't have any connection towards our source and/or target databases/sourcesystems.
Everything works fine, however, starting to deploy the whole set of packages, it seems that we don't have the option to set specific properties of our detailed packages, e.g. connection properties. But this is just what we need.
When we are adding a job in the Job Agent for our master package to be scheduled, we want to be able to set all different connection manager properties, not only the one from the master package and definitely the ones from the detailed packages as there we switch the connections from the development environment towards the acceptance environment.
I tried to fix this with parent package variables, but I can't set the password property, only the ServerName and UserName can be set, not the Password.
Anyone an idea what the easiest and best approach is to solve this burden?
Thx
