connection error
When i am running the package using dtexec utility on the command prompt i'm getting this error for every connection that is not windows authenticated. however in the debug mode it is always working
Source: Connection manager "connection_name"
Description: Failed to decrypt protected connection string for server "server_name" with error 0x8009000B "Key not valid for use in specified state.
". You may not be authorized to access this information. [[Occurs when there is a cryptographic error, most often when the right key is not available]]
i have 2 types of connections: one to oracle database and another to sql database. how do i solve this problem? the package is failing because of them.
Thanks

It sounds like you're moving the package to a new machine? Have you changed the default sensitive encryption option of the package? If it's still encrypt sensitive with user key, and then you copy the package to another machine, this will happen.
Ok..then should i set it to "don't save sensitive"?
i set the maximum error count to 3 so that the package doesn't fail everytime this happens..but i don't like this solution and it is appearing in the log.
Thanks
It sort of depends on what you're trying to do. If possible, use integrated auth. then you won't need to worry about passwords. Otherwise, you should encrypt with password and then pass the password in on the command line with dtexec like this: DTExec /F c:\PackageName.dtsx /P FoobarPassword#)%
