Able to connect with connection manager but SSIS package does not authenticate I have an SSIS package that connects MSSQL2008 server to MSSQL2000 and pulls data off the 2000 server and transfers it to the 2008 server. The 2000 server was recently virtualized and since then the SSIS package will not authenticate.
I can see both servers with OSQL -L/sqlcmd -L. All services, agents and browsers are running.
The SQL user that runs the SSIS package can connect via Test Connection button in the Package Explorer&gt;Connection Manager, but when I attempt to execute the package the error output indicates that the login failed, the password does not match. Error 18456 Sev 14 State 8. I am sure the password is correct as I just created the new SQL user to test. Am I missing something that the SSIS package may authenticate somewhere else?
Should the connection string include the password, or does that get pulled form elsewhere in the SSIS package?
I am not a DB admin/SQL guy so please excuse my green-ness if I am overlooking something simple here, which I hope I am. Thanks for any input
We where able to solve the Connection Problems with the Package Parameter Tab. Here you are able to &quot;Save&quot; for each connection the Username and Password (In clear Text ^^?!). And then the Package can connect.
