We're attempting to run an SSIS package on a different SQL Server than where Saleslogix is installed. 

My question is:  Is there a procedure to follow or certain steps to take to install and utilize the provider from this server without installing the client itself?

We ran 'Saleslogix OLE DB Provider.msi', which appeared to install the provider, but it doesn't look like it registered the dlls. 

Is there a seperate exe to run to do this?

Thanks!

Running that MSI should be it.

Question: Is the SQL Server running on 64bit?

  You have to keep in mind that SLX (even the provider) is a 32bit app. As such, it will not show up on a 32 bit process.

  If you use an UDL file for testing, you have to invoke it on 32 bit, otherwise you won't see the provider as being installed.

The server is 64bit. 

Would this mean that even if we installed the client it wouldn't be registered?

Let me clarify a bit:

After running the MSI, it appears that the provider is installed on the server.  It is installed correctly in the Wow6432Node folder.  But it is not completely installed.  Under Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node folder, we only have default and ShutdownDelay.  Here are the folders that are missing (in looking at a regular server/PC):

-Administrator

-Architect

-FaxProviders

-Sale Client

-SLXOLEDB

 I'm guessing that we only really need the SLXOLEDB folder?

How do we get that folder to show up in the registry?  Do we have to install the SalesLogix client application?

Douglas:

  The provider is installed, but you can only use it from a 32 bit process.

  For example, if you were to write your own application using .Net, and compile it to x86, it would work well, whereas if you compile it for x64 it would not work as a 32 Bit OLEDB Provider is not accessible under this space.

  In other words, the provider is installed on your machine, but you won't be able to use it from a program running on 64 bit.

  If you want to test it using a UDL file, you can do so, but only if you open that UDL file on 32 bit:

C:\Windows\syswow64\rundll32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\System\Ole DB\oledb32.dll",OpenDSLFile C:\test.udl

  Now, coming from SSIS, I am not sure what can be done to run it as 32 bit, maybe you need a parallel installation on the same box using the 32 bit install (or maybe you need to use a separate box). Unfortunately, I have not tried using the SLX OLEDB Provider on this specific situation.
