Tip: Error Handling

Situation:
I had 2 receive locations (1 Receive Port).
Each receive location did validation of a schema in the XmlReceive Pipeline
When an invalid message arrived, i wanted to send an email to the helpdesk and copy the incoming message in the error directory.

I had enabled routing for failed messags in the Receive Port



I created a send port group, adding filter BTS.ReceivePortName = the ReceiveLocation
+ ErrorReport.ErrorType exists.

Problem:
When an invalid message arrived at the location, I received error entries in the eventlog, but the email nor the copy was processed.

Solution:
I changed the filter to ErrorPort.ReceivePortName = receivelocation



It worked great.

btsharepointadapterws.asmx - Server Error - No Access

Situation:
After installing the BizTalk Adapter on a SharePoint (SPA1) Server, I wanted to have access to the btsharepointadapterws.asmx webservice via internet explorer.

Problem:
I receive a Server error, with no extra information.
Even if I played by changing the CustomErrors tag in the web.config, I didn’t receive any extra information.




Solution:
Open the file
C:\Program Files\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2006\Business Activity Services\BTSharePointV3AdapterWS\web.config

Under System.Web -> WebServices - >Protocols you will see

Put this line as comment and save the file.



No you will have access to the webservice.
