803 of 889 | Installing BizTalk on a Production Server without VS.Net - One interesting learning today...  I was building a BizTalk Server machine that was designed to be a production server (production defined to mean no locally installed Visual Studio.Net, no local SQL Server, etc...)  and ran into a problem where BizTalk couldn`t write a .dll file...  After some nashing of teeth, it turns out that the BizTalk installation program requires permissions to the C:\Windows\Temp directory, and the file name is a temporary name (so it`s different each time you execute the install).  On a single server installation, VS.Net (and perhaps SQL Server), set the permissions on the \Windows\Temp directory so that other apps can write to it...  By not installing VS.Net on t......

These resulted from many years of working to understand customer needs and their existing environments." Good stuff....

The problem was fairly generic so I thought I would share it.

For example, if Schema1.xsd imports SchemaA.xsd AND SchemaB.xsd. And SchemaA.xsd AND SchemaB.xsd both import Schema2.xsd. Without this fix you will receive the following error when you compile Schema1.xsd: schemaLocation could not be resolved Right now the readme for SP1 directs you to http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspxscid=kb;en-us;890673 which instructs you to call PSS to receive the fix.  You really do want this fix and it wouldn`t be very efficient if you had to call ......

820 of 889 | BizTalk Server 2004: Generating C# source files - Some time ago I published a utility on GotDotNet.com which dumps the temporary C# source code files generated by BizTalk during compilation. The utility works quite well, but cannot always dump all the files because it is unable to prevent BizTalk from deleting files once compilation is complete. BizTalk sometimes gets there first, removing the temporary files before the utility has a chance to copy them to the target dump location. Another problem is that the files have meaningless names, and are therefore difficult to trace back to the corresponding BizTalk artefacts. The utility is cool…but quite unnecessary. It turns out that Microsoft has implemented an undocumented registry setting to......

822 of 889 | BizTalk Server 2004 Exam Available - I just remembered that the BizTalk Server 2004 exam isnow vailable at VUE centres ,that`s proper english for "centers", starting today worldwide.  The exam number is included in the "partner competency" number, partner`s you know what I mean.  It isn`t an MCSD/E exam for a couple of reasons the most important being that you won`t have got an MCSD/E exam for another 9 months.  Never-the-less if you are a BizTalk Server partner this is the qualification for you and I`ve heard its "not exactly simple" which is what I always like to hear about a solid professional qualification exam.

823 of 889 | BizTalk Server 2004: Direct Binding Models in BizTalk - corrected! - My thanks to Gregory Van de Wiele who raised some questions over my statements about call-back patterns in my recent article on Direct Binding.   In attempting to dispel some myths, I was indeed adding my own!!   I had failed to understand the implications of the differences between Call Orchestration and Send Orchestration shapes, and the additional ways in which self-correlating ports can be used specifically with Start Orchestration shapes.   I have issued an amended and corrected version of the article....

824 of 889 | BizTalk Server 2004: Direct Binding models in Biztalk - Unfortunately, the BizTalk help files contain no detailed information on the direct binding models supported for orchestration ports. This has led to some confusion and misunderstanding amongst BizTalk developers. This article started as an attempt to dispel a few misconceptions which I recently come across. However, the article grew naturally to include a brief introduction to the subject of binding which I hope will be of use to some readers....

831 of 889 | BizTalk Server 2004: Flexible correlation - BizTalk supports mechanisms for highly flexible correlation, but does not document all of the available options.  In particular, it is not immediately obvious how to assign values directly to correlation sets when those values are not contained in the body of a message and exposed through property promotion.   In fact, the technique is quite straightforward, when you know how!  Click here for more information....

832 of 889 | Contract-first business process design - Jesus posted an interesting response to my post about why BizTalk developers get SO and contract-first. He goes on to explain how BizTalk developers can leverage contract-first design principles using BPEL4WS and BizTalk`s support for importing/exporting such artifacts. In BPEL4WS a business process defines how to coordinate the interactions between a process instance and its partners. All the partners that interact as part of the process are modeled as WSDL services. A BPEL4WS process also is modeled using the WSDL model of separation between the abstract message contents used by the business process and deployment information (messages and PortType versus binding and address information).......

848 of 889 | To Side-By-Side Or Not Side-by-Side With Whidbey And BTS 2004? - On one of my boxes, on which I was running BizTalk Server 2004, I recently installed Whidbey Beta 1. WHen I was doing some BizTalk development on that box, I noticed that BizTalk will sometimes not process any responses from Web services using the RPC/encoded message style, regardless if they are built with Apache Axis or .NET. The receive action will never finish even though the service sends a valid response. Upon further research, I found that the BizTalk Windows Service, BTSNTSvc.exe, loads the Whidbey assemblies and runtime, not the .NET 1.1 versions. So far, I thought that fusion would load the exact matching assembly if it was available (at least for string-named assemblies such as ......
