      Hi,

      I have an application to be deployed in the UAT server. In this application I have used a custom pipeline and custom fuctoid. Which I have already  put in pipeline folder and Mapper Extensions folder respectively as well as in gac of my development environment.

      Now I need to give the MSI package and binding to the Deployment people for deployment in UAT server. Do I need to give the DLL of the custom functoid and custom pipeline which I created for the project along with the MSI Package and bindings?

      If I will have to provide the custom DLLs, should the deployment people only have to gac those or they need to put in the respective folders such as pipeline folder and Mapper Extensions.

       

      Thanks in Advance

      as I understand, you want to deploy you new app in a UAT server.

      For this, you have to copy the dll of the pipeline in the pipeline folder and Gac the custom functoid.(it’s not necessary to gac the pipeline, because BizTalk Instance check the Pipeline folder), you have to copy the custom functoid in the mapper extensions folder if you want to use the pipeline in VS.

      If the custom pipeline and custom functoid are used only in this solution you can embed this in a MSI package. Before export, go to the ressources of the app.

      Click on Add ressources, then choose you dll:

      • for the pipeline dll, put on destination location %PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2006 R2\Pipeline Components\NameofYouDll.dll
      • for the functoid dll, check the box add to the global assembly cache on MSI file Install and put on destination location %BTAD_InstallDir%\NameOfYouDll.dll

      Export your msi

      the on the UAT environment, Deployment people have to Import the MSI first and THEN INSTALL the MSI (this step will copy the differents dll on the differents location)

      Restart the hosts and use your application

       

      Hope this help
