      Not real sure on this one.

      Did you make sure you have the pipeline components inside the correct folder? I think for an upgrade, the pipelines still reside inside the BizTalk Server 204 directory. Did you look in the BizTalk Installation – Update guide? Maybe that might have some hints.

      I’m going for the radical solution:
      Build a new identical pipeline!

      • #15316

        I recently inherited a Biztalk 2004 project, and I am also a complete novice to Biztalk. I upgraded the code successfully to Biztalk 2006, and deployed all of the necessary assemblies to start up Biztalk. Binding files imported succesfully, and I thought all was well, until I began to drop files into the system for Biztalk to process.

        We use file adapter receive locations, that send the files through a custom pipeline component (in the decode stage), then the flat file disassembler (in the disassemble stage). One of our pipelines is named:

        ClientName.Pipelines.ReceivePipeline_CONR_Dy

        After dropping a file that should be picked up by this pipeline, the following error appeared in the event log.

        [code:1:8010eec48e]
        Unable to cast object of type ‘ClientName.Pipelines.ReceivePipeline_CONR_Dy’ to type ‘Microsoft.BizTalk.PipelineOM.Pipeline’.
        [/code:1:8010eec48e]

        Can anybody suggest what the problem is, and possible solutions? I am under the assumption that this is due to the upgrade to 2006, as everything works fine under 2004.

        Let me know if I should post any additional information.

        Thanks!

          I recompiled the pipeline components in VS 2005, and put them in the C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2006\\Pipeline Components folder

          Also, just for giggles, I put the newly compiled components in C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004\\Pipeline Components as well

          I looked through the BizTalk Installation/Upgrade guides and the only reference to pipelines was that one must recompile them – which I did.

          Does anybody know when this cast actually takes place? Is there a way to debug this?
