BizTalk Azure Services-My learning’s 3 (Unable to connect to the specified BizTalk Adapter Service.)

I tried to create a SQL Server Lob target from within Visual Studio and got this error. The URL I was trying to use was http://localhost:8080/BAService/ManagementService.svc/. Some have said to use https://localhost:8080/BAService/ManagementService.svc/ but this caused more errors. Eventually I discovered that I had Imported the BizTalk Service self-signed certificate to the Trusted Root Certificate Authority […]

WCF Error from Visual Studio Debugger: An exception of type System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1 occurred but was not handled in user code

This error got me stumped for a bit… The solution was quite simple but caused a few further grey hairs so I will share here how I resolved this annoyance! I was hosting a WCF solution in Visual Studio (for testing and debugging purposes) and calling it from a forms application. Things were going well […]

Configuring BizTalk Server 2013 Developer Azure Gallery Image

Published by: Bill Chesnut

Once you have created a Azure IaaS machine using the BizTalk Server 2013 Developer Azure Gallery Image, there is still a bit off configuration that needs to be done:

This is what your new Desktop will look like

Below are Install instruction specific to this Azure Gallery Image and my method of configuration, see the BizTalk 2013 Installation guides for complete installation instructions

Finish SQL Server Configuration

Update the SQL Server name

Open Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio and verify the SQL Server Name:

Update the SQL Server name to the name you gave your image:

using script:

sp_dropserver ;
GO
sp_addserver , local;
GO

.csharpcode, .csharpcode pre
{
font-size: small;
color: black;
font-family: consolas, “Courier New”, courier, monospace;
background-color: #ffffff;
/*white-space: pre;*/
}
.csharpcode pre { margin: 0em; }
.csharpcode .rem { color: #008000; }
.csharpcode .kwrd { color: #0000ff; }
.csharpcode .str { color: #006080; }
.csharpcode .op { color: #0000c0; }
.csharpcode .preproc { color: #cc6633; }
.csharpcode .asp { background-color: #ffff00; }
.csharpcode .html { color: #800000; }
.csharpcode .attr { color: #ff0000; }
.csharpcode .alt
{
background-color: #f4f4f4;
width: 100%;
margin: 0em;
}
.csharpcode .lnum { color: #606060; }

Example:

Set SQL Agent to Automatically Start

Open the SQL Server Configuration Manager, Verify the SQL Server Agent is set to Manual

Right Click on the SQL Server Agent and Select Properties

Click the Service Tab

Click the Start Mode and Select Automatic, Click OK

Right Click on SQL Server Agent, Click Start

Verify the SQL Server Agent is Running

Update SQL Client Protocols

In the SQL Server Configuration Manager, Disable Shared Memory for both 32 and 64 Client

In Protocols for MSSQLSERVER, enable Named Pipes and TCP/IP and disable Shared Memory

Restart SQL Server to complete changes

Configure BizTalk

Double Click on Configuration – Shortcut on the desktop, enter User Name and Password, Click Configure

Click Next, Wait for Configuration to Complete

Check the Launch Custom Configuration, if needed, Click Finish

Install LOB Adapters

From c:\BizTalkServer2013_Developer run Setup.exe, Select Install BizTalk Adapters

Install Microsoft WCF LOB Adapter SDK, by Clicking the Link and following the Wizard

Install Microsoft BizTalk Adapter Pack, by Clicking the Link and following the Wizard

Install Microsoft BizTalk Adapter Pack(x64), by Clicking the Link and following the Wizard

Install Microsoft BizTalk Adapters for Enterprise Applications (if required), by Clicking the Link and following the Wizard

Exit when complete, Add New Adapters in the Adapters section of the Platform Setting in the BizTalk Server Administration Console

Option Installation and Configuration

ESB Toolkit

From c:\BizTalkServer2013_Developer run Setup.exe, Select Install BizTalk ESB Toolkit, follow the wizard

Select the ESB Configuration from the Windows Start Screen, Enter the Database Server (name of your machine), the User Account and Password and Click ESB BizTalk Applications

Check the Enable ESB Core Components in the BizTalk Server and Click Apply Configuration

Database SQL Agent Jobs

On a developer machine I typically set all the BizTalk Databases to simple recover mode so I don’t have to configure the BizTalk Server Backup Job

DTA Purge and Archive SQL Agent Job

To keep the developer machine clean I also use the following script to just purge the DTA (Tacking) Database, This keeps 10 days of Tracking Data

declare @dtLastBackup datetime 
set @dtLastBackup = GetUTCDate() 
exec dtasp_PurgeTrackingDatabase 1, 10, 11, @dtLastBackup


finished the basic Then Enable the DTA Purge and Archive Job


Conclusion

This finished the basic configuration with a few extra, if you are using BizTalk Unit, BTDF or any other tools, you will need to install them now.

I hope this instruction and screen shots help you get your BizTalk Server 2013 Developer Azure Gallery Image up and running smoothly

Speaking at Connect 2014

Speaking at Connect 2014

On May 27th-29th, in San Francisco, MuleSoft is hosting one of the largest integration events of the year called Connect.  There is an impressive list of speakers including:

  • Greg Schott, CEO MuleSoft
  • Ross Meyercord, CIO Salesforce
  • John Collison, Co-Founder Stripe
  • Ross Mason, Founder MuleSoft
  • Ben Haines, CIO BOX
  • Uri Sarid, CTO MuleSoft

I am fortunate to have the opportunity to participate in the event.  I am speaking in the Insurance track and also co-presenting on Integrating heterogeneous environments.

In the Integrating heterogeneous environments session will be demonstrating some of the investments that MuleSoft has been making in the area of Microsoft integration and more specifically some of the work we have been doing with WCF and .Net.

Without giving up too many details, there will be a healthy dose of RAML, APIs, SalesForce, .Net, REST/JSON,  WCF and Mobile in the demos.
