BizTalk: “Package does not contain compatible branch patch”

BizTalk: “Package does not contain compatible branch patch”

You may have encountered the error message “Package does not contain compatible branch patch” while installing Microsoft BizTalk Server 2013 R2 CU2.

If yes, than you have installed the Swift Accelerator with Swift Message Pack. The only workaround was to uninstall all the Swift Components, run the CU2 Update and install again the Swift Components.

This was really a nightmare and Microsoft brought finally out the Microsoft BizTalk Server 2013 R2 CU3 🙂
