I backed up the encrypted database (symmetric key / certificate) and restored it to another server.
Unfortunately, we have problems with decryption ... hoping someone can help.
In the restored db, I see the Symmetric key and certificate in SSMS, but when I try to open the key using cert (open symmet key KeyA decryption according to CertB certificate) I get after a very descriptive error:
Msg 15466, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 An error occurred while decrypting.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
