It is fine to edit this file in VS.net, but to ensure the file is valid you should right click on the file and select "Open With" and then select Internet Explorer. If the file loads in there then it is structurally correct. If the file does not have a valid structure then BizTalk will not be able to use it and the host instance will not be able to start up.
No its opening in the Visual studio.is there any other config file which i can use for this purpose.
Were you able to open the config file in IE…it needs to be valid xml.
Its no different from a web.config where you can store key,values.
Hoi Lex,
Ik kreeg een mailtje can je via <[email protected]> . Geef me je e-mailadres eens, dan kan ik je even berichten.

I originally had a threading issue using an external assembly as it seemed that map instances were sharing the object, even though it wasn't set up as a singleton. So, that what spawned the second post on putting the whole thing inline instead.
I've been in production with this for 3 months, and no problems have surfaced regarding shared variables.
Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I installed 2006 R2 Beta 2 on a server, and now I'm not able to uninstall it and replace it with the RTM. Also, the RTM wants to upgrade Single Sign On, but it can't uninstall the old version because the installed Biztalk beta depends on it, so I'm completely stuck!
I'm hoping somebody has figured this out and can lend a hand. I saw another blog with a similar error, and the person ended up having to spend 3 hours on the phone with support and uninstalled Biztalk by hand. That will teach me for using the beta on a production server!
rseroter,
Thanks for the links. You solved the most difficult transform I was trying to do. I have been looking for a custom iterator for months and was always told that you can't have global variables…or even variables for that matter…in a map.
Have you encountered any threading issues with global variables? Is there a chance that two Orchestrations would access the same global variable at the same time? Or is it only global to a single Orchestration map?
Thanks again for the help…GREATLY appreciated!!!
Have you tried using the POP3.ReplyTo context property alongside a dynamic send port with the SMTP adapter?
The organizations that I have used BizTalk at (3), have chosen it for a few reasons:
- It aligned well to their corporate standards: i.e. .Net shop, run a lot of windows desktops/servers, use SQL Server
- Price, from what I have heard BizTalk is very competitive in this area.
- Generally the resources are easier to come by(relatively speaking). If not, the organizations feel that they can convert existing .Net developers into BizTalk developers
btw, I am in Canada so some these reasons may not be as valid in your area
I too face the same problem and also some times it polls before the scheduled time like one to two min before. Can any one have a solution for it.
Thanks…
I think I may have been going about this incorrectly. I have a separate .NET solution where I am developing my XSLT and I was thinking of compiling a DLL that could be called from a Transform Shape. The XSLT is quite long and complex and modifying it in an Inline XSLT dialog box is not my idea of fun :S
The Transform shape in the Orchestration designer allows you to select a referenced assembly, but I don't know which interface I need to implement in order to see my XSLT map in my DLL. I have developed custom functoids and pipeline components and I have to say that my disappointment with MS in documenting these things is extremely high. I received all the info I needed from Blog and Forums.
For external assembly stuff, try this … http://seroter.wordpress.com/2007/04/02/calling-net-components-from-inline-xslt-in-biztalk/, and for inline code try .. http://seroter.wordpress.com/2007/05/24/calling-inline-net-code-from-inline-xslt-in-biztalk/
I do this by using the "Parallel Action" shape in an Orchestration.
I receive invoice files from a supplier that are broken up across 3 files. I need all 3 files received before I move on to my Transformations. I believe this will work for your application. I'm hoping my success isn't just dumb luck.
Can someone confirm?
I have not used this, but it was recently discussed at a Microsoft BizTalk/SOA conference. The tool is called PAL (Performance Analysis of Logs). You can download it from CodePlex: http://www.codeplex.com/PAL.
Hopefully, it will provide what you need.
