[Execute SQL Task] Error: Failed to acquire connection "DestinationConnectionOLEDB". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.

Hi All,

I have posted a question earlier under the title "package created by another user cannot be deployed by me"

Please let me explain it one more time. I have a user who developed a package on his PC which is WINDOWS XP 32 bit. He mailed me the package to deploy it onto the production server. The PROTECTION LEVEL is set to "DO NOT SAVE SENSITIVE".

I copied the project onto the PRODUCTION SERVER . Created a new project in BIDS and added the package. The PRODUCTION SERVER  is "WINDOWS SERVER 2008 R2 SP1" and it is a 64bit machine.

In the configuration properties under the PROJECT PROPERTIES i have set the RUN64bitRuntime to false and executed the package and i'm getting the following error:

[Execute SQL Task] Error: Failed to acquire connection "DestinationConnectionOLEDB". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.

Can anyone please advice me in the right direction , i have done and tried all the things for the past 4days that were suggested to me in the previous post but with no luck. If anyone can tell me where to look that will be great as well.

Thanks
