SQL Server Agent Job Will Not Retain Package Password (encrypt Sensitive With Password)
Apr 1, 2008
I have a package protected by a password - I am already unhappy that to get it to use the configuration file to change connection strings for the production servers I have had to hardcode the password into the config file - very insecure!
However, the package now deploys correctly to the production server and will run from there OK, but NOT if scheduled as a SQL Server Agent Job. Thus is because however often I edit the command line to include the password after the DECRYPT switch (which it has prompted me for when I click on the command line tab), the Job Step will not retain it.
If I open it up after I have edited it and closed it, the password has disappeared.
I know that if I run dtexec plus the code in the Command Line tab (with the password), the package runs OK.
This is driving me insane!
I have read all the other posts and so I tried replacing the SSIS package step with a CmdExec step and pasting that code into there - then I get an OLEDB error..
The code I use is:
DTEXEC /SQL "ImportRateMonitoringTables" /SERVER servername /DECRYPT password /CONFIGFILE "D:Microsoft SQL ServerSSISDeploymentsRateMonitoringImportTasksDeploymentImportRateMonitoringTables_Production.dtsConfig" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E
and I get
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x8000FFFF
although the same code executes perfectly from a command prompt.
Please does anyone have any experience with a similar problem and if so, how did you get round it?
Thank you

I am trying to learn how to store a web form password and than check it when the user log in. So far none of the code I can find works.
Why the following test does not work and what the correct code should be?
Insert Into [user]
values ('name', 'email', HashBytes('SHA1', 'bob'))
GO
Why does the following produce no rows?
SELECT *
From [user]
Where HashBytes('SHA1', password) = HashBytes('SHA1', 'bob')

I'm having a problem with saving a password in a SSIS package that is accessing an Oracle database as an external data source. I experienced the problem that many people have had with the SSIS package not saving the Oracle password as expected. I successfully saved the Oracle datasource password (Password #1) using the "Encrypt sensitive with password" security setting and then setting a separate/new password (Password #2) for the SSIS package. I've imported this package into my Integration Services installation, and I can get it to run successfully by manually entering Password #2 when I open the package.
Now I want to pull the SSIS package into a SQL Job Agent, along with some other steps, to run on an automatic schedule. My question -- how/where do I embed Password #2 (the one for the SSIS package) in the settings for the SQL Job Agent step that I use to run the SSIS package? The SQL Job Agent step settings box prompts me for Password #2 before it will let me edit settings for the package, but it doesn't save that password. So when I actually run the whole job, the SSIS package always fails.

I have been selecting the option to protect sensitive info in my packages with a password. However, this poses problems when later execute the packages by using the Execute Package Task. The problem is that I am repeated required to input the password before the packages will execute.
I was making this selection in the hope of not tying execution to a partiular user's credentials (my boss may also want to execute these pacakages at some point).
I find this subject confusing. Once I have selected this option, how can I change to another method? Additionally, does anyone have any advice vis a vis best practices in this matter? I want to store connection passwords, etc. in the package so they don't have to be supplied each time but I also want the information to be secure.
Thanks in advance for any information.

I have taken over an existing SQL 7.0 server. It has current production systems running on it.
I need to *confirm* what the SQL Agent password is; what simple task or job can I setup that will require me to provide the SQL Agent password so that I can confirm that what I have been told it correct?
Or does someone have another technique.
Thanks,
Bobby

I am receiving the following error message when attempting to create a new SQL Authenticated login id.
Password validation failed. The password does not meet the requirements of the password filter DLL. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15119)
I have four servers all running SQL Server 2005 SP2 on Windows 2003 Ent. SP1. Of the four servers, only one received the above error message using the same TSQL below.
CREATE LOGIN TEST_LOGIN WITH PASSWORD = 'pvif9dal' MUST_CHANGE, CHECK_EXPIRATION = ON
All four servers are in the same domain, which if I understand correctly, the password policies are therefore inherited at the OS level by the domain. The password being used is within the password policies of the domain.
Any ideas as to a root cause?

Hi there,
Something a little wride mysterious is happening with my package when I deploy it to run at the SSIS server instance. Everytime that I try to deploy it (from my local development environment) to SSIS server, my package is not keeping its database user and password.
As the database user and password are the same one we dont need to use the XML setting to keep these data there.
So, does anyone know what could be happening with my package and/or my deployment?
Thank you,

Hi;
I have built packages on SQL Server 2005 using the Import/Export wizard. The basic aim is to import a table from an Oracle database into my SQL database. It was running fine until recently when they Oracle database was upgraded to 10g (i think), and now something is wrong. If I run the saved package as administrator, it runs fine, but when I run it as part of a Agent schedule job, it seems to loose the password. The error message is not very descriptive ("The job has failed."), so i might be mistaken.
Help anyone ?!

Hi..
Isn't this a bug?
Step 1) Create a package with ProtectionLevel = EncryptAllwithPassword or EncryptSensitivewithPassword, and set password in package.
Step2) In SQL Server Agent, Create a Job to call a package.
Step 3) IN SQL Server Agent, Scripting Job. In script, package password shows up...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USE [msdb]
GO
... ...
@os_run_priority=0, @subsystem=N'SSIS',
@command=N'/FILE "D:PackageWithPassword.dtsx" /DECRYPT "P@ssw0rd" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF',
@database_name=N'master',
@flags=0
IF (@@ERROR <> 0 OR @ReturnCode <> 0) GOTO QuitWithRollback
EXEC @ReturnCode = msdb.dbo.sp_update_job @job_id = @jobId, @start_step_id = 1
IF (@@ERROR <> 0 OR @ReturnCode <> 0) GOTO QuitWithRollback
EXEC @ReturnCode = msdb.dbo.sp_add_jobserver @job_id = @jobId, @server_name = N'(local)'

I have an internal Project Management and Scheduling app that I wrote internally for my company. It was written to use MySQL running on a Debian server, but I am going to move it to SQL Server 2000 and integrate it with our Accounting software. The part I am having trouble with is the user login portion. I previously used this:
PHP Code:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = "$username" AND user_password = password("$password")";
Apparently the password() function is not available when accessing SQL Server via ODBC. Is there an equivalent function I could use isntead so the passwords arent plaintext in the database? I only have 15 people using the system so a blank pwd reset wouldn't be too much trouble.

On the login prompt for Report Server, there is a checkbox option to "Remember my Password." I check this, login successfully... but when returning to the Report Server, I am again prompted for the password, although the user name is saved. No matter how many times I do this, the password will not save in IE7. I have tried this on 3 different computers with IE7. In IE 6, I do not even get the checkbox as an option, just the user name/password prompt. In Firefox, the password saves fine. Any ideas what would be causing this?
Thanks,
Brian

Hi All,
I've created a DTS package with 2 connections to 2 servers. The operation transfers a db in server1 to server2. I have to set the sa password for each of the server (when setting up the connections).
Our policy is to change the server password regularly. This creates problem as I have to change the password setting at each of the connections. If there are 100 connections, I have to change it 100 times. Is there a way to avoid this so that we can avoid this tedious work.
TIA
Rgds,

Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to change the password on a SQL Server 2000 DTS package programatically instead of justmanually using the the interface?
I have over 150 DTS packages used for building BI data cubes and our password policy requires a password change every 60 days.
I would like to write a windows vb.net application that loops through all the DTS packages and changes the password.
Please advise.
Thanks
Chris

stupid question time...
how do i add a password (ie, what is the exact wording) to the CommandLine in a SQL Agent Job that is running an SSIS package from the File System, pls?
Here is the CommandLine as I currently have it:
/FILE "\dbase01c$SSISPackageDeployment vrscanus_process_uploadscanus_process_upload.dtsx" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E
I have tried /PWD and /pwd and /PASSWORD already. For these, SQL Job says they are not valid commandLine parameters.

Hi to all!.
I tell you my problem...
I have an DB2 source and SQL destination. I have 2 ConnectionManager. One for DB2 (IBM DB2) and other for SQL. Both are of the OleDB type.
Well. I setup my connections and it work fine. Now i want to change my ConnectionManager for others sources or destinations. And I don't want to have to change the connection in more than forty packages.
For this, i have 2 XML configuration file in package configurations. One for connection. In this XML i have the connectionstring, user and password. These files are obtained in all the packages.
Well. If i change the connectionstring in this XML file configuration, only work fine the OLEDB for SQL. The conection for DB2 return the fail: "The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "_packagename_" failed with error code 0xC0202009."
I have proven to modify protectionLevel of the package to DontSaveSensitive. SQL work fine. DB2 fails. I have changed to EncryptSensitiveWithPassword. The same.
Why the packages obtain the data of connection of the configuration file for SQL and it does not work or with the configuration file for DB2.
This is bug?
Thanks to all!.
