I have development and production environments MS SQL Server running on Windows 2008 R2. Both environments have MS SQL Server Management Studio. Only the development environment has BIDS. Each environment has its' own admin user ID but I have a userid that is admin on both environments.
In the development environment I have developed a SSIS package and created a configuration file for it as well. After creating the configuration file I edit it before building the project so that the password for connecting to an Oracle DB on a remote server is correct...I edit the configuration element for password so it looks like...
<Configuration ConfiguredType="Property" Path="\Package.Connections[SourceConnectionAdoNET].Properties[Password]" ValueType="String"><ConfiguredValue>Password=MyPassWord;</ConfiguredValue></Configuration>
...and then build the project. In MS SQL Management Studio I open up the integration services server and navigate to the package store folder MSDB and create a folder into which I import the SSIS package from the file system. I create a SQL Server Agent Job with one step, to run the package with the package source specified as the package in the package store. I rmb on the Agent Job and select run at step...the job runs with no errors.
I then connect to the production environment Integration Services server and navigate to the MSDB datastore folder and create a folder to hold the package. I then import the package from the development environment file system to the production package store. I create a Server Agent job on the production environment specifying the SSIS package in the package store. When I run the Server Agent Job the package fails when connecting to the Oracle db with a"null password" exception.
Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? My situation is such that although I've been developing SSIS and SSIS happily for a short while I have never been responsible for deployment into production...that was done by an admin...and of course there is no documented process (or admin) now.
Any help much appreciated, Roscoe
