Re: Password is not saved for Oracle connections

I'm tryiing to run a package that transfers data from an Oracle database to a table in SQL Server 2005. The package runs just fine from the BID.

However, when I deploy it to the server, it fails. It gives a "ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied" error when I use the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle, and a "ORA-10005: null password; logon denied" error when I use the Oracle provider for OLE.

Are data connections to Oracle broken or could there be a problem within deployment?

Can someone provide some good, detailed instructions on how to get this to work??

Thanks in advance.


I haven't used the Oracle provider, but you may want to look at the package protection level setting. This uses User Key for encrypting sensitive information by default, but for deployment I suggest you change to do not save sensitive. Use configurations to supply passwords and other sensitive parameters at run-time. I know some provider just don't seem to save this type of information, and that is no bad thing. You should be able to workaround this with configurations, and be more secure as well.
