      Is there anyway to keep track of the actually XML docs that flow through Biztalk? When I have a suspended orchestration or an orchestration that errors I would like to be able to view the actual messages that are being sent through Biztalk. When I fire up the HAT i can see the message flow and the error messages but I can’t actually see the messages being passed. I thought I remember reading that you could enable this but I can’t figure out how to actually accomplish this. I’ve enabled message tracking on my send ports but it doesn’t seem to have any effect.

      You can enable inbound and outbound message tracking. Then, you right click on the Orchestration instance and select “Save Al Tracked Messages” to get the message written o disk. You can enable this by going to Configuration — > Orchestration inside HAT.

      Downside is I think it resets every time you redeploy your Orchestration.

      You can also set a break point inside the Orchestration. Then, you can Attach to the Orchestration and see variables and messages at that point. That is probably the best but I have had mixed results with it.

      What I usually do is add some send ports or debug statements to write my messages out.

      Hope this helps.
