SSIS Packages Configurations and Deployment

I have 12 packages in my SSIS project to configure and deploy; what are the major things to change in these two processes to ensure smooth package preservation? Is it ok to select all properties in the 'Select Properties to Export' page?

I had configured and deployed a trial copy package and after that I tried running the package again but it failed; should that be expected? What If I want to run the package in future, is there anything I need to turn on or off on the configuration properties?

When I schedule sql server job, would this failure affect the  job from executing?
Thanks

I am using SQL Server method for the configuration and deployment. Can the connection manager be changed as well using this method?

What can I do then to make sure that the package doesn't fail when I run it either manually or as a scheduled job? But just before the configuration and deployment, the package was running very well with no error so I'm wondering if there's anything that could be done during the configuration or deployment to prevent the package from not running. By the way, the error is primary key constraint.

Thanks!
The connection manager can be changed using the configuration using either sql server or the .xml file.  

With a primary key constraint failure, it sounds like you need to add a sql task to your package that disables the constraints before the data is loaded.  At the end of the job you can another sql task that re-enable the constraints.
