Question About - Encrypted SQL Server SSIS Configurations
Feb 22, 2008
I tried to follow this link last night (http://curionorg.blogspot.com/) but when i try to configure my package configuration to use sqlserver i recieved the following error message:
The Table "[dbo].[ssisencryptedconfiguration]" cannot be used as a source for SQL Server configurations. The column "ConfiguredVaue" does not have the expected data type.
consult books online for the schema requirements
I followed the blog line by line. i have closed down my project and created a new test package, new project, still the same error. Its there a property somewhere that needs to be configured to allow package configuration to use encryption with sqlserver? I'm running sql 2005 w/sp2. Its there a hotfix that i'm missing. i have not been able to google an answer.
I have been able to successfully use sqlserver as my package configuration. I wanted to see if i could use the encryption code posted on the blog above. i have seen folks reference it or point other folks to it to use for encypting sqlserver package configurations, i just wondered if they have had the same problem.
thanks

I am using package configurations to hold an email address. I can happily change the email adress when teh config is in an XML file, but when I choose SQL Server to store the package configurations I can change the email address but the changes are not picked up despite coming out of dev studio and back in again - it picks up the default set on the variables tab.
It simply refuses to pick up the email address from the SQL table, but happily creates the dbo.[SSIS Configurations] table with correct entries in the wizard 1st time round.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong ?

I have two SSIS projects each with different packages. I have setup the packages with configurations stored in a SQL Server table in MSDB. When I create the configuration on the second project it overwrites all of the first projects configurations. Is there a way to to get two different project configurations stored in the same SQL Server table? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I have created a FTP task in SSISÂ to upload file to the server. Due to some policy issues we do not have the actual password with us. we have been provided with a encrypted password. Hence I am not able to connect to the server through the FTP task connection manager. Is there a way to connect to the server and send file using the encrypted password, so that we don't require the actual password to run the process successfully?

I want to see if anyone in this community has come across this and has found a solution.
we have 3 different SQL Servers because we are still porting over SQL 2k databases 2k5. We have multiple databases of course. We would like to create some kind of template that would create the connection manager based off of the information in our XML configuration file. We are thinking we would have 2 files for this. One would house the actual server information but omit the database name and username/password. The second will be a list of all the databases with their usernames/passwords for each one.
If we put all of these in the configuration files and do not have a connection for each one, SSIS will throw the error stating it is missing connection managers for those items. We would like to see about maybe specifying the database name and have the connection manager dynamically pull the database specific information into the package. This would also need to be able to handle more then 1 database should there be the need.
I am new to SSIS. It seems pretty nice and extensible but my learning curve on it is horrible as I never programmed DTS packages before.
I hope I am making sense here. Thanks for any help offered!

Hey there,
I know that many articles have been written describing configurations for packages but I have yet to have found one that describes if it is possible to use SQL Server configuration type for a package that is to be tested on DEV, then UAT, then PROD boxes.
I would like to know if there's a way to store values in a config table in a database on DEV, UAT and PROD but never have to change anything in the package.
I mean, I wonder if I can pass a parameter that defines the server to go get the configurations from.
The 3 servers will contain a database with a config table named the same on each server but have different configuration values to point them to the proper sources and destinations depending on which server the configuration database resides.
Thank you,
Robin

Hello, I have a SSIS package that is making one database connection (dbMAIN). I am using the XML File Configuration to specify dbMAIN's properties (server, database, password, etc).
The problem is that the File Configuration contains entries for multiple databases (dbMAIN, dbTEST, dbSTAGING, etc)
When the SSIS is run through dtexec.exe, I get this error:
Error: 2007-04-10 16:52:23.39 Code: 0xC001000E Source: TEST Description: The connection "DDMAIN" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.End Error
I do not want it to give me an error. The XML File must house all our database connections. What can I do?

I have a package that executes several other packages. I have an XML packageconfiguration file to set the servername for the parent package, do I need to just add that packageconfiguration to the parent package and the servername in the XML file will be used until all the packages executed from the parent package are executed or do I need to add that configuration file to each lower level package?
Thanks for any help.

Hi there,
I've got an urgent thing I need to resolve.
I have a package that has a file connection. We have set the connection in the package for development - we also have the connection in a config file.
We are calling the package from SQL Jobs. In the step we call the package in, we try to set the value for the connection in the Data Source tab. However, the package does NOT use the value we enter.
I then removed the connection from the config file - then the package uses what the connection was set to in development. It still will not use what we enter in SQL Jobs.
Furthermore, when we run the package we lose the values that we put in the DataSource tab!!!!
My work around has been to change the SQL Job type from an INtegration services package to a straight command line - this works.
The question is - can you set a package's connection strings from SQL Jobs using the SSIS Job Type ???
Thanks!!!

I have a package that uses configurations to override package settings based on what environment the package runs in. The package's configuration entries begins with an initial XML config entry that overrides the package's connection manager to a SQL database that holds the remaining configs in a table. Subsequent config entries then fetch their settings from the table. This package is run from a SQL job.
This all works fine in dev. When I moved everything into prod the packages are not getting configured and are using their values stored in the DTSX files. I've triple checked the XML config file, the tables with the configs, and the packages. There are no error messages. I've added some debuging steps to the package to verify that the configs in the table are not getting into the package.
I've also tried manually changing the configs in the table where the package is set to look if the initial XML config fails to adjust the config database location. The package still fails to see any configs from the table.
What could be different between dev and prod that would produce this situation? Both dev and prod have identical copies of the package and the job and are currently pointed to the same configurations database.
By the way, the other connections in the package work for both source selects and destination inserts. Only the configurations are failing, and again there is no error message.

Hello everyone,
I am working on a SSIS project and I am facing an issue for getting the configuration settings of the package, once it is deployed and executed from SQL Server agent.
The package uses two configuration types: (listed bellow in the order they are appeared in the configuration editor)
Config1 - Xml configuration file - for storing the database connection string.
Config2 - SQL Server - for storing some user defined variables. It uses the same database as specified in Config1.
Everything works fine and the package uses the database configuration values as defined in Config2, if I execute it from Visual Studio,
However, the package doesn€™t get the configuration settings from the database when I try to execute it as a SQL Agent job.
There aren€™t any errors and the package executes all tasks successfully, using the connection object Config1 (the same we use to get the config parameters from the database) and the default values of the user defined variables.
It works ok, if I change Config2 to be of type XML configuration file.
There could be two problems:
1. SQL server agent doesn€™t read the configuration from the database and I am not quite sure how to set this. In Agent/ Job step properties screen/ Configurations tab I can only browse for a config file. I can also use the command window and /CONFIGFILE option to specify xml file, but how to use it in a case of a database configuration? Is there a /CONFIGDATABSE option or /CONFIGFILE works with database connection as well. I tried with /CONFIGFILE and database connection, but it doesn€™t seem to work.
2. SQL server agent doesn€™t get the configurations in the specified order. In my case,
it could try to read Config2 first, but at that moment it doesn€™t have the database connection from Config1 and it fails. Again, I am not sure how to set the sequence.
Thanks in advance for your comments.IT

I'm learning SSIS, and just started to use SSIS Package Configurations. I want to be able to switch between a dev and prod instance of our database.
I did not specify the password in the Configuration file (XML), figuring it would get it from the package itself. (That will be the same between dev and prod). But once I set up to use the Configuration, I started to get a "Login failed..." message. I added the password to the configuration, and it's the same. I quit using the configuration file at all, and then it works again.
This may be related, but when I show the properties on my connection, it shows stars for the password. When I go to the editor, the password field is blank, and if I test the connection, it fails. I type in the password, and then the connection works. I have the "Save my password" checked, but every time I go back, the password is blank. In fact, if I type in the password for the connection in the editor, and then go to the "All" page, the password is blank. It may be a red herring, but it sure looks like it's not really storing the password, and thus the Configuration file can't connect when it tries to get it. I can type in the password, test the connection (it works), close the editor dialog, open the editor dialog, test the connection again, and since the password is now blank, the connection fails.
What do I have to do to make that password actually stick!?
Without the Configuration file, when I save the package to SQLServer, it will run as a job, in spite of the password appearing to not stick. With the configuration file, it's not even running while still in Studio.
Here are at least some of the version information, which may or may not be useful.
Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
Version 8.0.50727.42
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 2.0.50727
Installed Edition: Professional
Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services Designer
Version 9.00.3042.00
Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Designer
Version 9.00.3042.00
Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Designers
Version 9.00.3042.00
SQL Prompt 3.5
Thank you for any help you can provide.

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.

I need to start encrypting several fields in a database and have been doing some testing with a test database first. I've run into problems when attempting to restore the database on either the same server (but different database) or to a separate server.
First, here's how i created the symmetric key and encrypted data in the original database:
create master key
encryption by password = 'testAppleA3';
create certificate test
with subject = 'test certificate',
EXPIRY_DATE = '1/1/2010';
create symmetric key sk_Test
with algorithm = triple_des
encryption by certificate test;
open symmetric key sk_Test decryption by certificate test;
insert into employees values (101,'Jane Doe',encryptbykey(key_guid('sk_Test'),'$200000'));
insert into employees values(102,'Bob Jones',encryptbykey(key_guid('sk_Test'),'$500000'));
select * from employees
--delete from employees
select id,name,cast(decryptbykey(salary) as varchar(10)) as salary from employees
close all symmetric keys
Next I backup up this test database and restore it to a new database on a different server (same issue if restore to different database but on same server).
Then if i attempt to open the key in the new database and decrypt:
open symmetric key sk_Test decryption by certificate test;
I get the error: An error occurred during decryption.
Ok, well not unexpected, so reading the forums, i try doing the below first in the new database:
ALTER MASTER KEY ADD ENCRYPTION BY SERVICE MASTER KEY
Then I try opening the key again and get the error again:
An error occurred during decryption.
So then it occurs to me, maybe i need to drop and recreate it so i do
drop symmetric key sk_test
then
create symmetric key sk_Test
with algorithm = triple_des
encryption by certificate test;
and then try to open it.
Same error!
So then i decide, let's drop everything, the master key, the certificate and then symmetric key:
drop symmetric key sk_test
drop certificate test
drop master key
Then recreate the master key:
create master key
encryption by password = 'testAppleA3';
Restore the certificate from a backup i had made to a file:
CREATE CERTIFICATE test
FROM FILE = 'c:storedcertsencryptiontestcert'
Recreate the symmetric key again:
create symmetric key sk_Test
with algorithm = triple_des
encryption by certificate test;
And now open the key only to get the error:
Cannot decrypt or encrypt using the specified certificate, either because it has no private key or because the password provided for the private key is incorrect.
So what am I doing wrong here? In this scenario I would appear to have lost all access to decrypt the data in the database despite restoring from a backup which restored the symmetric key and certificate and i obviously know the password for the master key.
I also tried running the command
ALTER MASTER KEY ADD ENCRYPTION BY SERVICE MASTER KEY
again but this does not resolve the issue.
Thx.

Hi,
In BI Tool SSIS Packages run fine and get data From Oracle and Save it in SQL Server.
Package Protection Level is EncryptSensitivewithPassword.
In BI tool when i open the package it ask password and then run fine.
If i change the Protection Level to Dont save Sensitive,
It does not run fine in even BI tool.
It is fine if i use EncryptSensitivewithPassword.in BI Tool and run it.
Now the problem is that i need to run this package through SQL Job.
so Job give error
"Failed to decrypt an encrypted XML node because the password was not specified or not correct. Package load will attempt to continue without the encrypted information."
Please i need help ?
Thanks

I have been experimenting with both XML and SQL Server Configurations. Management would really like to go with the SQL Server Configurations, but I seem to be having problems with them.
The main goal is to be able to create a configuration for each connection and have every package refer to its specific configuration, therefore in the future we could change say our SA password and only have to update this in a few places rather than for every package.
In order to experiment with the problem I am having I developed 2 identical packages, except one uses SQL Server Configurations and the other uses XML. The configurations save the exact same properties. With the XML package I can go into the configuration file and change say the password and initial catalogue properties and have these changes go into effect. With the SQL Server package these changes do not seem to take place. So I guess what seems to be happening is with the XML package the connectionstring seems to be generated with the other properties that have been saved in the configuration, but in the SQL Server package none of this seems to take place and the connectionstring just stays exactly as it is saved in the configuration file.
I was wondering if I just seem to be missing something or if anybody else has experienced this problem and found a solution.
Any help is much appreciated,
Sam

My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed. We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance. AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.
I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance. Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources. I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year. Any suggestions?

I've installed SQL Server 2000 and applied SP3a. I see SP4 is available and fixes a lot of things. The only bit I am unsure about is section '5.3.2 Changes to Master/Target Server Configurations'
http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/b/d/1bdf5b78-584e-4de0-b36f-c44e06b0d2a3/ReadmeSql2k32sp4.htm#_5464_sql_server_agent_enhancements_705
"Before you apply SP4, you must complete several steps to upgrade your SQL Server 2000 master/target server configuration. The changes that are introduced with SP4 are not compatible with SQL Server 7.0 target servers, or with any servers not running SP3 or later. This is a change from the original SQL Server 2000 functionality. "
As I'm just starting out I don't even know what 'Master/Target Server' is. I'm only installing to my PC which is XP Pro SP2. Can I ignore this step and apply the patch or do I need to do as it states?
Thanks

Hi all
I am trying to create indirect package configurations so that:
1) My configuration data is stored in a SQL Server table, and
2) The location of that table is stored in an environment variable.
Achieving #1 is easy, but when I hit the "Configuration location is stored in an environment variable", I strike problems. I can specify a environment variable no problems, but there doesn't seem to be anywhere in the documentation to describe the syntax of WHAT should go in that environment variable.
HELP!!!!
Thanks in advance

have a Prod Server A having TDE enabled on 2 of those databases. I have a Prod Server B having TDE enabled on 3 of those databases. Now I have to create a single Dev server Server C for all the above 5 databases residing on the two servers. So how can I restore all the 5 database backup files on server C.
Does it mean that I need to copy the certificates and Keys from both the Prod server to this Dev Box and then restore the backup files. Once done, I can enable the encryption ON on those 5 database on Dev box or is there any different approach.Also how will tempdb behave in this scenario.

I have idea on SMK, DMK and symmetric and asymmetric keys. I have also idea on TDE. But Is there any way to encrypt all the records of all the columns of a table in a database? actually I need to encrypt the database. Someone .... thinks that when someone will write select query he will get the encrypted records. As per as I am concerned it is not possible. I can encrypt the specific column using symmetric or other keys...
Is there any software or any tool which will provide encrypted records of database?

When i instead run the generated script this problem disappears but then restoring of transactions fails - the process can backup transactions from the Primary server , copy them accross to the secondary and fails on the restore. Any ideas why.

I am trying to run a test migration of our application from V8 to V9. To do this I am creating an empty database by running the Tasks -> Script database
Once that is done, I restore it to our dev server and run SQLCompare against it to generate the change scripts
The problem I am facing is that there are a few tables that have encrypted triggers on them and I cannot include them in the generate scripts. I want to take the table structure, including indexes, but I am not interested in the triggers. There are only 5 tables so I could script them by hand, but this means that I cannot automate the process.
As a result of the missing tables SQLCompare will try to generate a CREATE TABLE rather than an ALTER TABLE DDL
The live migration won't be a problem because this will be a database restore and migration - my problem is the CREATE TABLE DDLs in the script.

I queried sys.databases in one of the sql server and found "is_encrypted" is "1" for four of the databases.
Does that mean that all those 4 DBs are encrypted ?
How to check if the database itself is encrypted or only the backups ?

I have a strange situation when I try to execute the same Stored Procedure on servers with different processors. Both servers are running the SQL SERVER 2008 R2 version with all updates.
All updates bios, disk controller, firmware, were applied on the new server.
New Server: (considerable difference in processing time)
 Stored Procedure without encryption, runs at about 02:16hs
 Stored Procedure with encryption, runs at about 08:00hs
Â
Server Processor:
Intel (R) Xeon (R) CPU @ 2.60GHz E5-2697 v3
Â
Old Server: (There Are No difference in processing time)
 Stored Procedure without encryption, runs at about 01:00hs
 Stored Procedure with encryption, runs at about 01:00hs
Â
Server Processor:
Intel (R) Xeon (R) CPU @ 2.7GHz E5-2697 V2
In terms of configuration, the server 2, have lower technology, lower bus, lower number of processors.
I believe that combination of Hardware/SO/Sql Server has a potential performance loss when running encrypted SP.
