I have an SSIS package with a OLE DB connection manager to 'SQL Server 1', as well as flat file managers that come from the D disk of the local machine.
The package basically retrieves data from the D disk of the machine I am using, and through a series of loop containers with SQL tasks, sends it to 'SQL Server 1'. This all works completely fine.
The challenge is that I would like to deploy the exact same package to 'SQL Server 2'. All files, tables, etc are exactly the same in 'SQL Server 2', as well as the files in the D disk of the local machine where 'SQL Server 2' is located. However, I don't know how to do this.
If I change the OLE DB connection manager to 'SQL Server 2', all works perfectly, as the SQL tasks automatically choose the only connection that exists. Nonetheless, the point is to somehow do this dynamically.
This means having both 'SQL Server 1' and 'SQL Server 2' as OLEDB connection managers, and deploying the same SSIS project to both servers (right now it is only deployed to 'SQL Server 1').
I have created, under Project - Properties, a new configuration that has 'SQL Server 2' selected as the Server Name for deployment. Originally, only one existed, which of course has 'SQL Server 1' as the server for deployment. I know this is not enough, but don't know what else to do.
The objective is to deploy the same package to Server1 and Server2, and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
You can use expressions to change the OLEDB connection manager connectionstring property dynamically:
How can I use a Variable for a OLE DB Connection in SSIS
SSIS how to set connection string dynamically from a config file
You can add a Variable or Project parameter and pass the connection string on the package execution. For more details you can refer to one of the following articles:
Parameterizing Database Connection in SQL Server Integration Services
Parameterizing Connections and Values at Runtime Using SSIS Environment Variables
The answer is detailed in the link I found (posted at the end), and explains step by step how to do what I wanted, which was to deploy an SSIS package to different servers by making the connection string dynamic:
Setup Environment Variables in SQL Server Integration Services
It is basically to follow 5 steps (again, detailed in the link):
Create a project parameter and configuring the project's connection manager with the project parameter
Deploy the project to the SSIS catalog in SQL server
Create an environment in the SSIS catalog, along with a variable
Link the environment to the project and the variable with the parameter
Execure the package using the environment

Thank you in advance for your help on this issue.
Here is the situation:
I have a SSIS package that essentially take data from a excel file ( using a Excel Connection) and upload it to a SQL table through a OLE DB Connection. This package runs completely fine in Visual Studio but I keep having this error once it is deployed on SSMS:
Failed to configure a connection property that has the following path: \Package.Connections[Excel Connection Manager].Properties[ConnectByProxy]. Element "ConnectByProxy" does not exist in collection "Properties".
; at Microsoft.SqlServer.IntegrationServices.Server.ISServerExec.ConnectionParametersManager.ConfigureProperty(String parameterName, Object parameterValue)
at Microsoft.SqlServer.IntegrationServices.Server.ISServerExec.ConnectionParametersManager.ConfigureProperties()
at Microsoft.SqlServer.IntegrationServices.Server.ISServerExec.ProjectOperator.ValidatePackageWithReference(Int64 validationId, Int64 infoId, Int64 projectId, String packageName, Int64 versionId, Nullable`1 referenceId, Project isserverProject, Boolean offlineMode)>
And I have the same error when it comes to the OLE DB ( SQL Server Native Client 11.0) connection.
Both Connections are at the project level and I deploy the hole project in SSMS. I also have the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.16.0 provider installed in SSMS.
To fix that error I have made some changes in the project configuration in SSMS like setting the ConnectByPoxy value to TRUE or adding my UserName but still failed. The package is pretty simple, has no parameters, no variables.
Also tried checking the 32 bit runtime..
Sometimes SSIS can throw strange errors when working with deployments to remote servers that you never encounter when executing the package locally. This implies there is likely something wrong with the compatibility of the server's version of SQL Server and your local copy (of SQL Server or Visual Studio). Perhaps verifying the deployed version of SQL Server your remote server uses and comparing it to your local copy would be worthwhile.
If they do match, next I would check the project's target SQL Server version by following the instructions at this site, and ensure it is correct. I would also confirm that the server has access to the directory in which the Excel files are being received, just to be safe.
This article specifically addresses the "ConnectByProxy" element issue you are encountering, and may prove helpful in resolving the issue or at least in giving more insight into possible issues.
I am working on my first SSIS package that is pulling data from one on-premise SQL Server instance doing some transformations and writing it to a separate on-premise SQL Server instance.
While working with the package in my SSDT project all of my tasks run and work correctly.
Once I deploy the package to SQL Server the ADO.NET connection to the source database fails.
The package is deployed on the destination SQL Server instance.
There is a data flow task earlier in the package that uses an OLE DB connection which is successful and uses the same SQL Authentication username and password combination.
I get the error:
Read Group Membership:Error: Failed to acquire connection "sourcedb.testtable". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
One thought is that I may need to configure an ADO.NET connection provider on the source database.
As this is my first foray into SSIS I expect the fix is trivial, I just can't get there.
Update with solution:
I resolved the issue by using an OLE DB connection rather than the ADO.NET. I didn't realize I could still sue the results from an OLE DB connected query to populate an ADO Enumerator.
Changed to use an OLE DB connection rather than an ADO.NET connection.
I had thought I needed an ADO.NET connection to populate my data and use it in a foreach as an ADO Enumerator.
I am running some SSIS packages locally that need to insert data into an Azure v12 SQL Database. For authentication we would like to use "Active Directory Integrated". This works if I connect via SQL Management Studio so it is setup right. However my SSIS package is giving me an error of
My connection string looks like this
So note the authentication param which I think is causing the issue.
Any ideas onusing this type of security with SSIS? The SSIS package is being run from a SQL 2016 server.
SSIS OLE DB connections does not support Azure integrated security yet, and it's very undocumented. You have to workaround by creating an SQL login with password Or use ADO.NET connection
If you have an OLEDB connection using SQLNativeClient, you can make a change to allow the use of Active Directory. First download Microsoft® OLE DB Driver 18 for SQL Server®
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=56730
Then view the SSIS package in code and change the connection string to 'Provider=MSOLEDBSQL;Authentication=ActiveDirectoryIntegrated;Encrypt=yes'
The UI will not display the AD options, but it will work for an Execute SQL Task, not yet managed to get it to work for and OLE DB source.
I also managed to get this working for an OLE DB data source by setting the DelayValidation True on the Data Flow.
I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 on which I have installed SQL Server 2014 for my database and use Microsoft Access 2016 to manage the data in a user-friendly way.
Everything worked perfectly fine till I tried to connect to the database from another PC on the same network, also with Windows 7.
I am able to connect to the database from the second PC using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio and SQL Server Native Client 11.0, logging in as sa using SQL Server authentication.
However, when I open the Microsoft Access database file from the second PC, a window pops up, saying that:
See this image.
And when I press OK a second window pops:
See this image.
I have configured the database to use a specific TCP/IP = 1433
Also made new inbound rules in windows firewall for all SQL Server services.
Please note that there is no domain involved here. I don't have a Windows server and the SQL Server is installed on PC #1.
If you require more information, please tell me, I'll be happy to provide
Hope someone will be able to help!

I am using Package Deployment Model for one of my project in SSIS.
When I am importing the package on SSISDB under Integration Service Catalogs.
It imports successfully.
Then, I want to create a Job under SQL Job Agents to Run this Package periodically. But there I am not getting any Connection managers which I have used in my package.
My SSIS package has 2 connections :
Connection to the Sharepoint Site (Which is the source of the data)
Connection to the SQL Server ( Which is the destination of the data)
If I am not getting the connection manager while creating the job, then How can I change the connection Servers from local to Production ones from here?
Am I missing something on configuration part to include Connection Managers in the Deployment Package?
Please help here.
Thank you,
Mittal.
In SSMS open the Integration Services Catalogs -> SSISDB -> CatalogName -> Projects, then right click on the project OR Find the package in the SSIS Catalog and right click on it, then select the Configure... entry in the popup menu.
You can select the package in the Scope dropdown list, then you can find the connections under the Connection Managers tab.
Also please read this thread: How to configure SSIS 2012 project to run under different environment configurations?
