Secure Connection Info In Configuration Files

Jan 11, 2007

Hi All

€™m just starting out with SSIS and am trying to establish architecture standards that are sound and workable. We will be developing BI solutions for customers who use our banking and finance package that runs on an IBM System i. Modularity is important as all our BI solutions will have a combination of re-used functionality along with varying degrees of unique functionality for each customer. My current area of interest is in externalizing all environmental factors and ensuring such things as passwords are protected.

I understand how configuration files work and how to use environment variables to provide a layer of indirection to them. At this stage we want to avoid encryption of packages and plan to use file system based deployment. We plan to use windows security for SQL server so I have no issue in exposing connection info here but for our DB2 connections we need to include user id and passwords. As I understand it, configuration files can not be encrypted so how do I store this externally while preserving its security. Nothing I have read so far has given me exactly what I need.

Configuration File For Connection Info (how Do I Set Password)

Oct 27, 2006

Hi All,

I'm new to SSIS. I'm trying to build a simple package, run it on dev and migrate it to our stg and tst environments. It works on my dev environment great! It simply loads data from a flat file into a table. The trouble i'm having is exporting the connection string info to an xml file and runnign it on other environments. I am not storing the package on the db. I am saving to a file and running through SQL Server BI Development Studio.

I go to "Configuration File" and export InitialCatalog, ServerName, User, Password to the file. I can manually change the xml to the new environment but don't know how to set the password. It's not in the xml and i am constantly getting "Login failed for 'sa'" errors. Anyone know how to do this. I CAN get this whole process to work if i use Windows authentication security but this isn't an option. I need to use the db security.

Thanks,
Dave

How To Build A Package To Ftp Files From BLOBs With FTP Connection Info Also Held In The Database

Apr 24, 2008

I have a table with embedded files in it and also ftp server/user/pwd fields so that each record has all the data and information required and need to configure an SSIS package to to FTP them to the destination as specified in the record within the databaseAt the moment I have a data flow task which uses a Derived Column and an Export Column transformation which creates the files to a temp folder then it runs a ForEach loop container back on the control flow to FTP each file and to then move each file to an archive folder.

All I think I need to know how to do is to somehow control the FTP connection settings with the fields from the database within this foreach loop, but it is a for each file collection. I also need to update each record saying it has been FTP'd as well
Do I need to have an initial query outside of this foreach loop to populate an array which can be used for the 4 FTP connection fields (server/user/pwd/directory), if so how?

Any ideas as to how to correctly finish this package.


Thanks

SQL Jobs Calling SSIS Packages Within MSDB Not Referencing Connection Info In Config Files

Nov 13, 2007

I have deployed to production a number of nested packages (parent packages that call child packages) to the SQL msdb via the Save As option rather than building a deployment utility. These packages reference configuration files in a static location off of the c: drive on the production server. In the development environment, when connection changes are made and I run the Reload with Upgrade option the connection manager takes on the new server and user id settings. However, out on the production side I get the following error from the SQL job log:

Cannot load the XML configuration file. The XML configuration file may be malformed or not valid.

As a result the SQL job uses the default connection information which references the development database rather than the production database. I did research the error but found no good solutions. Is there a way to ensure the configuration files are formed correctly and that the packages are correctly referencing the configuration files? We are trying to run the ETL updates via a SQL job.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Secure Database Files For Sp_attach_db

Oct 29, 2007



hi,

My problem is, I am going to ship MSDE with our product. Now the problem is that if some one copies the .MDF and .LDF files and uses "sp_attach_db" to attach the db files to his own server then my database will be exposed to him. I have tried this and it gets exosed. I cant deploy NT Authentication for the database, bcoz if the end user installes Enterprise manager then my database will be exposed to him. Is there any way that i can sequre the LDF and MDF files of my database so that no one can use that with sp_attach_db? I m using MSDE(Sql server 2000).

How? Sharing Configuration Info Among Packages

Mar 7, 2007

Ok, I understand it is possible, but I still can't quite get the mechanics of it to work.



I create a new BIDS project, and add a package to it, and add 3
connection managers, and set the server, instance, DB, etc. for SQL
connections. I change the name of each connection manager so the server
name is not there, but use something more like a generic name of what
the database is. Fine. I right click in the Control Flow area and go to
configurations. I enable configurations, and save to a common place on
the C drive. Save everything, exit, VS, fine, and I export all
connection managers properties.



Then I start Visual Studio again. Create another new BIDS project, add
a package to it, and add 3 connection managers. I don't actually
connect them, but use those same generic names from the first
iteration. I enable configurations for the package. I am somewhat
expecting to see the connections change from the same-o-default to the
data I used in the first go around.



I am obviously missing something big here.

How? Sharing Configuration Info Among Packages

Mar 6, 2007

The scenario is an ETL that takes flat file feeds via FTP to move data into varous production SQL server databases nightly.



There are a number of packages involved, and this depends upon the type of data being sent.



There are a set number of servers and databases to receive the
transformed data. I would like to be able to define say 3 servers, and
maybe a couple of databases in each one time in the configuration. For
simplicity lets say 6 databases total. I would like a single point of
maintenance for these 6 locations. I would like all connection managers
in all packages in all solutions to share these 6 settings in all
connection managers. Is this possible? From my initial attempts, it
would appear each package gets its own independent list of connection
managers and which must be configured separately. I don't see how to
share settings, which is really where the power of SSIS configurations
would be.



Similarly, I would like to be able to locate flat files at given paths.
The package may know the name of the file it is looking for, or the
file it will create, and the folder path needs to be computed from a
configured folder root, and for the package connection manager to store
only the name of the file, which never changes.



I can not see how to set something like this up with connection
managers and configurations. Perhaps I still need a highly customized
solution to achieve this, as we did for DTS, where we would only
execute packages using our own executor, which would load the package,
search out all environment specific settings and modify them on the fly
prior to executing the package.



Thanks for any direction you can give here. The books I've read seem to
imply I might be able to do what I need here, but I can't seem to find
the mechanics of making it happen.

Sharing Configuration Info Among Packages Via Variables

Mar 26, 2007

It is pretty easy to create the package configuration to the shared, never-changing path to XML file. But to get this to work, I have to add a bunch of package variables which are driven from the configuration. I then use expressions to compute actual paths to source files and packages.

This business of copying a block of variables from one package to another is extremely tedious, and at least to me, something of a maintenance issue. I have found if I get ahead of myself and forget to create the variables first, then Visual Studio is NOT very forgiving, and will complain repeatedly just prior to crashing without the offer to save anything. If I add a new variable, it is like an easter egg hunt. This does NOT feel very single point of maintenance when variables must be used in this way to really effectively apply configuration, and it is so tedious and error prone, and unforgiving. I seem to spend a great percentage of time copying the names and datatypes and values of variables ONE AT A TIME. What is that all about?

I hear people telling the praises of configurations, but I must be missing something.

With DTS I used a system where global scope settings were "injected" into packages as they ran, and I never had to worry about anything, and it was damn hard to goof it.

Please someone, evangelize me!! Are people bypassing VS and using NOTEPAD on the packages or something like that to save time?

Nov 20, 2007



Help.

Today while trying to get the Windows NT security working i upgraded my reporting services IIS server to a domain controller and it screwed up all of my settings. First it changed password for ASPNET user and so I reinstalled .net framework.

Now i get the

error message.

I do not want to use an SSL certificate for I do not have one right now. How can I configure my SQL Server 2000 Reporting services to not use SSL. I see they added something to SQL Reporting Services 2005 in the configuration tools but I cant find out how to modify the config files with SQL 2000 RS to eliminate the SSL.

The Underlying Connection Was Closed: Could Not Establish Trust Relationship For The SSL/TLS Secure Channel

Nov 17, 2006

I'm using SQL Server 2005 (SP1) Reporting Services on Windows Server 2003 SP1. I access the report server from Internet using SSL, but the server is not exposed directly to the internet. It is behind a firewall, where the required ssl port is setup and is working fine.

In my Reporting Server, the /ReportServer folder works perfect and I can navigate and view all reports. It is the /Reports folder the one that does not work fine. I can enter the /Reports folder, and can list all the reports. But, when I select one of the reports, and it starts rendering, I get the error message:

"The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel. The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure."

How can I fix this?

Thanks,

The Connection Name 'name' Was Not Found In The Applications Configuration Or The Connection String Is Empty

Jan 18, 2008

I have been trying to host my website on Go Daddy for about 3 weeks and I have cleared several problems but this one remains. I can get into the ASPNETDB database for doing logins , etc but I cant access my database called "PINEmgt".
To try to understand where the problem is located,I built a very simple application without login controls and put on it one Detailform accessing a single line table "Signin". I continually get the error message I got with my real app :"The connection name 'PINEMgtConnectionString2' was not found in the applications configuration or the connection string is empty. " There is only one connection string in my app -'PINEMgtConnectionString2'. When I run the app locally on my machine it works. After I move everything to Go Daddy, I get the error message and the following dump"





Line 24: </Fields>
Line 25: </aspetailsView>
Line 26: <aspqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStringsINEMgtConnectionString2 %>"
Line 27: InsertCommand="INSERT INTO Signup(first_name, last_name, email, customer_id) VALUES (,,,)"
Line 28: SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [Signup]"></aspqlDataSource>

This is indeed the code from my single page app.

The dump is:




[InvalidOperationException: The connection name 'PINEMgtConnectionString2' was not found in the applications configuration or the connection string is empty.]

Configuration Files, Again

Jan 17, 2008

Hi,

I am having a hard time grasping how to use configuration files.

Here's an example:

I created a simple package (one execute sql task) that simply does a "select * from xyz". Table xyz only exists on Server 1.

I then created a configuration file, the only setting being the ole db connection manager which is pointing to Server 1. I then went into the file and added the "password=zzz" since it's a sql server login.

When I run the package it worked.

Next, I went into the configuration file I just created and had it point to another server, Server 2, thinking this would now cause the execute sql task to fail since table xyz does not exist on Server 2.

But it's still running succesfully. What's the deal here? Shouldn't changing the configuration file settings cause the package to now fail?

Thanks

Configuration Files

Jun 19, 2006

Hi,

I€™m having
some issues associated with the configuration files that I can€™t understand:

-
Having
a project with several packages using the same connections in each one (some
packages use all connection and others I just have some of them), why can€™t I use
only one configuration file for all project. Assuming that I would have to
configure all packages at least I would like to use always the same file. On
the other way I would need 100€™s of configuration files (one per package) to
configure always the same connection, just because not all the packages use
exactly the same connections.

-
Having
a configuration file on a machine, the package saves the full path, even if the
configuration file lays in the same path them the project. When I change my
project to another machine that doesn€™t use the same file structure forces me
to open every package and change the configuration file location.



Having 100€™s of packages and a team of
developers, even using the source safe, this makes the task just a little difficult

Thanks,
VĂ­tor Ferreira

Deploying With Configuration Files

Feb 15, 2008

I am deploying SSIS packages using the deployment utility. We are starting to use configuration files for storing connection information. I have the configuration files in a directory on the server I am deploying the packages to, I want all new packages deployed to use these files. When I deploy a new package it wants to overwrite the config files on the server with the ones in the package. I have tried to remove the .dtsconfig file from the package deployment folder but then the package will not use the config files on the server. How do you deploy a package and get it to use the .dtsconfig files that are already on the server?

Configuration Files And Importing

Feb 28, 2006

I have a package with a corresponding configuration file.

If I open Sql server management studio and i connect to SSIS and right click to import a package, and then select to store the package in SQL Server (not on the file system)....

What happens with the configuration file?

Does the import take the values from the configuration file and place them in the package which then is stored in SQL Server?

Or do I need to put the configuration file someplace on the SQL Server where the package is imported so it can access it when it runs?

I'm a bit confused about what goes on there?

For example, I tried using the build command and then running the manifest file to import using the wizard and when it does that it copies the configuration files to a default location within the c:program filesmicrosoft sql server directory.

Thx.

SSIS Configuration Files

Jul 17, 2007

Hello,

I am having a bit of trouble with SSIS Configurations.

- In BIDS, I have added a configuration file and specified the properties I want to expose.
- When I build the project, I get the standard bindeployment folder which contains the package file (.dtsx), the configuration file (.dtsconfig) and the deploymentmanifest.
- Before deploying the package, I edit the config file to have the settings I want it to for the environment I am deploying to.
- The package deploys OK
- When I work directly on the SSIS server (64 bit), I can go into SQl Mgt Studio, choose 'run package' and when I look in the connection manager window all the settings are as I desire ( I havent had to add a configuration file manually)
- When I work on a client machine, I connect to the SSIS server and choose 'run package' - the properties/connections are the same as on the server but the values themselves are completely different.

Why is this? Why when I run the package from the client (32 bit) do the configuration values appear to be completely different? How can I run the package remotely and pick up the configuration values that I deployed with?
Or have I misunderstood this whole configuration function?

Please, please help!

I installed RS2K5 on cluster, modified web.config and rswebapplication.config according to 'Configuring URL settings and View State Validation' in sql2k5 books online. Web browser seems not happy with the change of rswebapplication.config (refer to following error). Anyone has idea why? Thanks.
Server Error in '/Reports' Application.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Path To Configuration Files

Jan 22, 2007

Can someone tell me why path to the configuration file couldn't be relative to the package? When I try to use relative path (i.e. do not specify full path to the configuration file) package then run from BIDS looks for configuration file in the solution folder instead of package's folder (project folder).

Is there ane way to force package use same folder to search for caonfiguration files?

Thanks

Jobs And Configuration Files

Dec 26, 2007

Please forgive me if my question is pre-emptive (as in, I haven't throughly researched this yet), but I'd like to know in advance the following question:

Q. When scheduling SSIS jobs to run packages (in msdb), do I specify a configuration file in the job? Is this how one uses the configuration file? Or is the configuration file "configured" at the SSIS package level, before you schedule the job? Or both?

Also, is there a good link on this topic? I'm already afraid I'm going to be confused!

Thanks much!

Connection String With Authenticated User Info

Jul 6, 2006

Hi.  New to ASP.NET and first time posting.
My web app connects to a SQL database - SQL authentication. 
Users login to the web app through the login server control.  Once authenticated, it is my understanding that the user name and password are stored on the client as a cookie. 
How do you programmatically get this user info and use it for the userid and password parameters of the connection string?
Is there a better way to use the authenticated user info to access a SQL database?
Thanks

SSIS Configuration Files - How Do You Use The Things?

Oct 16, 2006

http://blogs.conchango.com/jamiethomson/default.aspx has a lot of great tid-bits for SQL 2005.  I am currently on a tight deadine for 25 SSIS packages that need to be able to move from Dev to QA to Staging to Prod.  For the life of me I cannot get any of the packages to *READ* the config files created with the package config wizard.  All I want to do is move the connection string out of the package so we can change the config file and not have to touch (hand edit) each package. Any help is appreciated!

Package Loses Configuration Files!

Oct 25, 2006

I created a project with multiple packages.  I created a global config file that all packages reference.  I also created a config file for each package that contains the package specific settings.  I checked it all into TFS.  I went to a different machine and checked it all out.  Upon loading a package into the IDE I got the following 3 warnings.Warning loading MT_LSE_PROD_StageLoad.dtsx: The configuration file "MT_LSE_PROD_StageLoad.dtsConfig" cannot be found. Check the directory and file name.      e:contentloadersprint1aMT_LSE_PROD_StageLoad.dtsx Warning loading MT_LSE_PROD_StageLoad.dtsx: The configuration file "Environment.dtsConfig" cannot be found. Check the directory and file name.      e:contentloadersprint1aMT_LSE_PROD_StageLoad.dtsxWarning loading MT_LSE_PROD_StageLoad.dtsx: Failed to load at least one of the configuration entries for the package. Check configurations entries and previous warnings to see descriptions of which configuration failed.      e:contentloadersprint1aMT_LSE_PROD_StageLoad.dtsxAny ideas??? And yes, the files *ARE* there!  I tried building the project and it builds.  I also tried doing a deployment build and that too built.  I am so confused!!!
