      We’re currently working on modifying a huge BizTalk solution. I’m testing the update
      method of versioning. I’ve created three orchestrations in three different projects
      and one extra project for the schema’s. Now I deploy them, update the second one
      with a new version number (assembly version) and deploy this one.

      Actually in our test, we’re sending a message in and suspending it at the third
      orchestration (C). When resuming it will go all the way back to the first (A).

      Now, we’re updating the second orchestration (B) when the message is still pending
      in C. We deploy and resume the message in C but it’ll send to both B1 and B2. Now I
      think this is because we use late binding (with binding files). I think this problem
      can be solved by using direct binding. Do you agree?

      Anyway, I need to bind the three orchestrations directly, but it doesn’t let me do
      this. I can’t chose the receive port of B in A. Can you help me out here? I’m
      referencing B in A and I am able to select B’s port type in A.

      Any help would be much appriciated. Thank you very much for your time!

      Hello.

      Side by side versioning with biztalk is doable but difficult.

      In your case, I would look at using direct binding. If you need side by side versions of your schema you need to make sure you include the schema assembly version or another custom set property that can be used for your subscriptions inside the Orchestration.

      You need to make sure if you version your schema you can not use the default Xml Disassembler or Assembler.

      Basically, you need to think of side by side versioning as really a full, new solution you want to deploy.

      Hope this helps.
