I have simple package and trying to use the security feature of ssis. I set the protection level as "EncryptSensitiveWithPassword" and also specify the password. But it doesn't prompts me for the password. Can anybody help me in that?
View 1 RepliesHi,
Can any one give me the details of the Security level or measure which are supported my MS Sql Server.
How much it is security while we are accessing any database over the internet and what are the Security measure we have to take and level did Software provides.
It is URGENT
Thanks
1> Support for rules based and change-data-capture extracts
2> Push and Pull methods supported
3> Convert between ASCII and EBCDIC
4> Ability to extract from packages like SAP and Peoplesoft natively
5> Extract from multiple sources simultaneously
6> Support for native database features like database bulk loaders
Hello,
If I have an instance of SQL Server 2005 Workgroup, am I able to run simple ETL packages against it? By simple I mean:
1. Extract data from a comma separated flat file.
2. Load the flat file data to an Access (2002/2003) database.
3. Load the flat file data to a SQL 2005 table.
4. Execution of .dtsx package.
5. Ways to execute a package (i.e. can schedule a package to be run with the SQL Server Agent)?
6. Notification (i.e. SMTP email) on events from package (i.e. on error).
I have been using the Developer Edition, which I know has all/most of the features of Enterprise. How do the SSIS features change between Developer and Workgroup editions?
TIA!!!
The BIDSHelper team are please to announce that we have just release v1.2 which includes a number of new SSIS features. BIDSHelper is a free add-in for the BI Development Studio that adds a number of useful features.

Hi,
I'm trying to find what features that are in the enterprise edition that we don't have in the standard edition.
I couldn't find any information in the microsoft site.
Could anyone send me a list or point me to a link.
Thanks.
I found so many websites wrote that fuzzy grouping ,fuzzy lookup, term extraction, term lookup,Dimension processing destination adapter and Data mining model training destination adapter only available at Enterprise Edition.
Anyway i still can use these components at Standard Edition.
Is that any features different between these two edition for these components? Thanks
Hello,
I realize that I am confused about SSIS and security.
In BIDS, I work on and modify my packages. That part I understand. Then, I want to build my project, then deploy to SQL Server 2005. I know how to do that too (for the most part, please see below):
My confusion arises around the "Protection Level" options in the package properties. Right now I have everything set to "EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey". My understanding is that I need to change this in order to run my packages from SQL Server jobs, because only the creator of the package can currently run the job.
So my question is, since I want to deploy to SQL Server, don't I want to change the "Protection Level" to "ServerStorage"?
However, it will not let me change the protection level to ServerStorage. It says "The protection level, ServerStorage, cannot be used when saving to this destination"... presumably because it is attempting to save to the file system.
However, even when I built out my packages and saved to SQL Server, I could not change the protection level either.
Which is why I am really confused... Once you save your packages to SQL Server, how do you make changes to the packages, so that the changes are reflected in the packages stored on SQL Server?
There is some concept I am not understanding here.
Thanks for any help
In DTS we had an Owner password and User Password. The User pasword allowed someone to run and schedule the package, but not edit the contents. Owner allowed full /designer access.
I like the two levels of password security. What is the equivalent of this in SSIS? I can only seem to get ProtectionLevel security to work with a single password that seems to be required to run, deploy and execute. Looks like an all or nothing proposition unless i am missing something.
Hi,
i have a problem when i schedule an agent on the sql server and i log off the sql server ,
the agent failed with this msg' in the event viewr :
Login failed for user 'sa'. [CLIENT: <local machine>].
the account that run the SQL AGENT is NT AUTHORITYNETWORKSERVICE.
i guess the problem is there but i can't find how to resolve it?
i'll be happy for any help.
10X.
Can someone tell me what are the security watchouts there are in running SSIS or the SQL Server Agent? I am having trouble running a job on a package that runs fine through Integration Services. The only difference seems to be that SQL Server Agent is running the job on the schedule.
Does SQL Server Agent need to have certain rights?
Do I need to be part of a certain group besides Admin?
Does the package need to have a particular security for someone to run the job?
I was finally able to get the package set but now I can't schedule the thing to work.
Hi all,
I am currently trying to execute my first SSIS package and am having a lot of trouble with (what i believe to be) SQL security. During the development of the package i was testing all my connection managers with the sa account. Now that i have deployed the package i want to use another account with less privelages so that my setup is more secure. I have created a new login which maps to both the database my SSIS package is using and also to the msdb database. I have created a schema and user in each of these databases which i had initially set with minimal rights. This caused certain parts of my package to fail. I then set up the login with a sysadmin server role which worked no problem at all. Finnally i then gave the schema for the user full rights and removed the sysadmin server role. once again the package fail. Surely i can't only be able to run the SSIS package with an account that has a sysadmin role?
Can anyone tell me if i am doing something wrong. The SQL server 2005 security model is so frustrating to get to grips with.
Many thanks in advance,
Grant
Is it possible to store SSIS checkpoint files in database rather than file system?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
I feel like ssis encryption model has a serious flaw. Especially when linked to SQL Agent jobs.
I have posted and others have posted messages about this. Something is plain wrong with ssis encryption keys and password protection. Also, you do not have the choice not to protect the packages. In my case, protecting packages is completely useless.
Here is the story.
After this post
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=131340&SiteID=1&mode=1
I created config files for al my packages connections passswords.
Now, by our IT Policy, I had to change again my password and of course, all packages now return multiple errors when I open them.
Hopefully, the config file did its job and the packages are ran anyways by SQL Agent, however, having to manually retype and resave all packages not to have the errors is just a plain hassle. Not to speak about people not using the config files and the correct "Run As" sql agent account.
I stress the fact that in a real world production environment all packages are driven by SQL Agent jobs and MUST run automatically.
Here is the error I get after opening a package after changing my password:
Error 1 Error loading Constants05.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. c:projectsssis packagesssis constantsConstants05.dtsx 1 1
So Why is'nt this key automatically adjusted after Windows NT Domain password Change?
How can I refresh the key, not to have to reype all the packages connections passwords and rebuilding, Checkin-in again all the stuff?
I do not think the solution is "Use an application account which password never changes when you create your ssis packages" however at this time, this is the only solution I can think of.
How do you guys deal with this problem?
I still do not understand the ssis security model I feel it is diconnected from the reality and unpracticable in a production environment like mine.
Thanks

I am trying to call a SSIS package from a web service hosted on the same machine as the package file is sitting. All that the package does is a simple Execute SQL task with one datasource connection.
I have set impersonation as true. When I run the package from the web service on the virual port (through Visual studio IDE) it runs fine.
http://localhost:4609/WebServiceRunSSIS/LaunchSSISPackageServiceCS.asmx
In the above case I don't think impersonation means anything coz it runs successfully even when there is no impersonation set!
I then run the same service (asmx page) from the browser after making it a web service on my machine
http://localhost/WebServiceRunSSIS/LaunchSSISPackageServiceCS.asmx
I get an error indicating package failure.
I have enabled logging in SSIS. The package log indicates the following:
Failed to acquire connection "APNetDS". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
Effectively, my web service impersonated account (which is my admin account) is not being authenticated for any of the db connection (uses windows integrated authentication) and I find that odd. To impersonate, I have set the Impersonation to true in the web.config file. The authentication mode is windows.
Please tell me what bit of security I am missing? In case if it helps, the database connection is to my local database and hence should not deny access to my own account. And yes, I think my impoersonation is working because when I debug, the user.identity shows my user id.
Thank you,
Sumeet
Hi
I have to import a list of users and then add them to my Sql database via .NET framework APIs
Now the following code works from within my web application but I cannot get it to run in an ssis transormation script.
Has anyone got experience with this requirement in an SSIS package script?

Static users As New System.Collections.Hashtable
Dim password As String = String.Empty
If (Not users.ContainsKey(GetUserCode(Row.UserID))) Then
users.Add(GetUserCode(Row.UserID), GetUserName(Row.FullName))
'create a random password
password = System.Web.Security.Membership.GeneratePassword(7, 1)
Try
'insert new user
System.Web.Security.Membership.DeleteUser(GetUserCode(Row.UserID))
System.Web.Security.Membership.CreateUser(GetUserCode(Row.UserID), password)
'link roles to new user
System.Web.Security.Roles.AddUserToRole(GetUserCode(Row.UserID), "MANAGE_SCORECARD")
Catch ex As Exception
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try
End If

hi,
how i know the extra features added in the sql2005 than sql 2000
Does SQL 2000 support nested tables? Also, how many columns does it support?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAre there any features in 6.5 that have been discontinued in 7.0? I read in Technet that "future versions of SQL Server might not support some statements where the same functionality can be achieved using other means." Technet gave the following examples:
- Device Mirroring
- Outer Join Syntax
- SELECT FOR BROWSE
- Handling of NULLs
I`m curious how our applications will be effected. Will we be making a lot of code changes when we migrate to 7.0?
Thanks, Dave Holtz

Hi,
Since I am new to DTSs therefore currently I am making my DTSs in a manner where there probably is a room for improvement e.g. When I have to Import data from one server to another I use the Import feature and then I go through all the steps of the wizard (at the end of which I get the option to save my DTS)....
In the DTS "design window" there are many options under the TASK menu option and is there a url from where I can learn how to use these options (under TASK i.e. File Transfer Protocaol task, ActiveX Script Task, Transform Data Task, etc. etc.).
Maybe if I know how to use these options, I might be able to write my DTS in better and flexible manner...
Hope my posts is making some sense????
Thanks

Hi
The white paper which compares SQL Express and SQL Compact says that they both share Common Features
Can someone please indicate if SQL Compact will support functions like

I've been having trouble getting my RS2005 reports with interactive features (drilldowns) to work in an Iframe and rendered with SOAP.
The main problem now is that the toggle buttons (+ / -) point to the reporting services server and do a URL Access call. I've tried the <ReplacementRoot> element in the DeviceInfo parameter but it doesn't appear to do anything.
I keep on reading about how everything is possible through the web services but it looks as if these interactive features are only available using the URL Access. Is this true?

Hi All, Just curious about the features that are not available in the Express version. Can you import data from other sources? Can you perform DTS packages?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,I've read that SQL Server 2005 ED lacks 'enterprise feature support'. What does this mean?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI was given what at first seemed a simple task (and maybe it is, but with everything else on my plate, I can't seem to get my head wrapped around this)...create a grid or table something similar to below:
Plan A Plan B PlanC PlanD
Item1 yes yes no no
Item2 yes yes no no
Item3 yes no yes no
etc.....
The "plans" are stored in one db table, the "items" in another. What I can't seem to get straight in my mind is how to relate the yess and nos and then generate a tabular layout similar to the above.
I don't need anyone to do it for me, but a push in the right direction would sure be nice (using SQL 2005) Thanks!
Hello,
I know the basics of DTSs and have been using them for a while. Now I REALLY want to learn the advanced concepts related to DTS's e.g.
How to make use of the "Inner Package Global Variables" Tab (which is visible in the DTS Designer "window")
How to make use of the "Outer Package Global Variables" Tab (which is visible in the DTS Designer "window")
How to make use of the "Outer Package Global Variables" Tab (which is visible in the menu bar option #4 Designer "window")
Thanks.

We use SQL Server 2012 sp1.We want to install a feature that we did not install the first time.
So we run the "SQL Server Installation Center" from our server.At the step "Setup Support Rules", we received this error:

The SQL Server registry keys from a prior installation cannot be modified.
To continue, see SQL Server Setup documentation about how to fix registry keys.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking to find more information regarding advanced filtering/report parameters available in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services. From what I can see, the user can set values for each report parameter and the query defaults to "where x = (param 1) and y = (param 2)" etc. Is there a way that a user can pick parameters that structure a more complex where clause? For example, say I want to filter by all clients enrolled in all of these 3 service programs and have a dog or clients not enrolled in one of the following 3 care programs or clients who live in one of the following cities? So it would be like this:
where (((sp = 1 and sp = 2 and sp = 3) and animal = dog) or ((cp not in (1, 2, 3)) or city in (a, b, c, d)))
In addition, I am looking for more information regarding programmatic capabilities in Reporting Services. Can anyone point me to a good place for this information? I would like to know whether we could structure part of a query in VB.NET code and then pass this query to Reporting Services to join with the basic report query. Also, I would like to know Reporting Services' capability to interact with stored procedures.
In addition, is Reporting Services more for internal business reporting, or do companies add it onto their existing software package to sell to external customers? Does Reporting Services allow one report to be created, and then users (our customers) on different servers who use different databases to run the report by giving Reporting Services their credentials (database, SQL Server login, etc)?
Basically, I have just been following the tutorials on Microsoft's site, but they are all pretty basic so I haven't gotten a good feel for whether this product is good for advanced reporting needs.
Thanks!
