No, multiple copies of these schemas do not have to be Deployed. But... These schema are included in Projects when you generate schemas for WCF Adapter services though with different .Net Type names and namespaces. They only thing they contain are element type definitions and are used by the referring...
Generating a Cross Product from two input schemas using BizTalk Map
biztalk,biztalk-2010,biztalk-mapper
I tried various combinations of functoids to get the required output schema, but nothing worked. So, I finally moved on to use scripting functoid, which served my purpose. I am posting my finding as it could be helpful to someone else. This is how I proceeded: Remove all connections and...
Does the BizTalk 2010 BtsAsmExt.dll work with Server 2008 R2?
Probably not. While BTAV is still shipped, it suffers from two significant deficiencies: It is not supported on 64-bit systems. It does not support the .Net 4.0 GAC. BizTalk Server 2010 is .Net 4.0 based so because of item 2, any BizTalk 2010 Assemblies you build/deploy would not be visible...
How to get EDI 997 instead of TA1 in BT2010?
biztalk,biztalk-2010,edi,purchase-order
I made quite a few changes, so not sure exactly which one got it working. I followed videos 2-4 found here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/biztalk/gg153513 I'm still getting the TA1s, and will work on that next, but now I'm getting 997s in a separate SendPort. I added new send port sp_997_Test with the...

Got this Sample SOAP messages in xml format from Salesforce.com. https://developer.salesforce.com/page/Sample_SOAP_Messages. Now I able to do all operations purely from wsdl, not C# code. Thank you all for your help. Zahir Shaikh...
Why is there an additional copy of a DLL when deploying a BizTalk application?
The technical answer is because you have both an "Add to the global assembly cache ..." option checked and the Destination location option set on the Resource's properties in BizTalk Administrator. The first puts a copy in the GAC. The second puts a copy in the install folder. If you...
new-item Host-Instance - BizTalk Powershell Extensions
powershell,biztalk,credentials,biztalk-2010
I found this issue. I had the wrong value for $servername, should have been "BizTalk2010Dev". I didn't catch that domain name and server name were different (this is a VM that a co-worker created). So in summary, the error, while very ambiguous, was referring to the existing HostName being missing....
BizTalk 2010 map scripting complex external assembly throws assembly not found
c#,biztalk,.net-assembly,biztalk-2010
ARRRGGGG! Curse you Visual Studio! VS was not picking up the changes to the GAC and additionally I don't believe it liked my original dotted namespace/assembly name. I simplified to MapScripting for NS/Asm and restarted VS and it worked. UGH!
Are any dependencies included in a BizTalk exported application MSI?
They can be if you add them to the Application in BizTalk Administrator before exporting the .msi. When you do, be sure to check one of the "Add to the global assembly cache on MSI file import/install" options....
BAM can configure only Analysis Services 2005 or 2008
biztalk,biztalk-2010,biztalk-bam
Looks like you're missing BAMStarSchema and BAMAnalysis. Open BizTalk Server Configuration, go to the BAM Tools tab, and make sure you have those options configured and deployed. See this blog for some more information on configuring that (related to a different error, but same configuration process). It's got pretty pictures...
What is the ModuleRefCollection for in a BizTalk bindings file?
ModuleRefCollection is the container for the Schemas (TrackedSchemas) and Orchestrations (Services) associated with the Application. A Module being an Assembly for Orchestrations and the special Application ModuleRef for TrackedSchemas. Note, TrackedSchemas is a slight misnomer. It contains the configuration for all Deployed Schemas, not just tracked Schemas. Each element contains...
BizTalk Server without administrative rights
windows-7,biztalk,biztalk-2010,admin-rights
Best answer: Can they provision a VM of Windows Server 2008 R2 for you where you can be a local Administrator and run BizTalk Server? Even the most security conscious environments I've been in allow this. To address your specific question: No, you don't need to have local Administrator, but...there...

Where or how can I find BizTalk server's database for attaching them to SQL server?
sql-server,visual-studio-2010,biztalk,biztalk-2010,biztalk-deployment
For solving this problem we need to access BizTalk related databases. For reaching these databases and installing them we need to configure by following this file: C:\Program Files\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2010\Configuration.exe Then we can install BizTalk databases. So we can access them like BizTalkMgmtDb . Then we must configure BizTalk...
BizTalk 2010 Send FTPS - when is client certificate hash “thumbprint” needed?
ftp,ssl-certificate,biztalk,biztalk-2010,ftps
You need to use the client certificate, when the FTPS server requires authentication with the client certificate. And you do not use it, when the server does not require that (what is a way more common). FileZilla does not support the client certificates at all. If you are able to...
How can you programatically create a receive location?
biztalk,biztalk-2010,biztalk-ps1-provider
You can use explorerOM [void] [System.reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM") $server = "." $connectionString = "SERVER=" + $server + ";DATABASE=BizTalkMgmtDb;Integrated Security=SSPI" $Catalog = New-Object Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM.BtsCatalogExplorer $Catalog.ConnectionString = $connectionString You will have to add a new Application using "AddNewApplication" $app = $Catalog.AddNewApplication() $rcvPort = $app.AddNewReceivePort(0) $rcvLocation = $rcvPort.AddNewReceiveLocation() Define properties for the...
Controlling the ordering of the Extension Object XML file contents
Sorry, no. We have not control over the resultant prefixes in the output. This kind of reshuffling happened to me a couple of times too. What you can do is add your Assembly to the custom extension xml where you can set your own namespace, which you'd then use in...
What are the potential side effects of directly calling a stored procedure in a BizTalk helper class?
Code wise, there's really no 'risk', it's just .Net code calling SQL Server. However, I consider it vary bad form to do so in a BizTalk app because its, well, not the BizTalk way. That would be a Schema, Map, SQL Adapter, etc. The risk is that such an operation...
FILE Receive Location - How to define file mask with 2 extensions
I have not personally tested that BizTalk only uses the first 3. charaters, but if so, this is probably a dangerous solution, since it might be addressed in future hotfixes. I would suggest creating two receive locations, one for each filter, and bind them to the same receive port. This...
User Authentication in BizTalk Published Orchestration as WCF-WSHttp
biztalk,wcf-security,biztalk-2010
It seems like your're looking for just Basic authentication on the transport layer? All you then have to do is to create an AD user or a local user on the BizTalk machine and set the Transport client credential type to Basic.
Will updating the assemblies File Version have any impact on a BizTalk application?
versioning,biztalk,biztalk-2010
No Changing the AssemblyFileVersion will have no effect on the application, only changing the AssemblyVersion will. In fact at my company we change the AssemblyFileVersion as a standard, this way you can tell what version is deployed in an environment....
How can you programatically export a receive location?
There's a few ways to approach this, each with benefits and drawbacks. WMI: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa547992.aspx The drawback is this is by Assembly, so you'd have to enumerate them first. BTSTask.exe: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa559686.aspx Better, since it allows you to specify an Assembler or an Application. There's no object model, but executing from another...
