ssis Connection manager password ("DontSaveSensitive")

I have a SSIS package used the protection level as "DontSaveSensitive" So initially I have saved the oledb connection manager password as in a XML config file. And this worked fine for me.

Now for business requirement I have stored the configuration in SQL Server. Including password.

Initially it worked fine.But suddenly connection manager is not taking password from sqlDB.

If I set an environment variable for the "password" it's working.

My question is:

  1. what is the solution for this. (I can only save the configurations in SQL)
  2. initially how it worked. I mean initially from SQL Server the password was taking.

Please give some clue. I am doing a lot of trial and error.

How are you going to retrieve the password from the database if you need the password to connect the database?

There is a small article here about storing passwords which may help you.
