Answer 1

In addition to what Kiran's answer suggests, make sure this is set correctly:

There is an option to in SSIS to save passwords(to access DB or anyother stuff), the default setting is "EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey"... You need to change this.

Package Proprties Window > ProtectionLevel -- Change that to EncryptSensitiveWithPassword PackagePassword -- enter password-> somepassword
