Installation guides of BizTalk 2013

Hello All,
I do see the installation documents of "Installing BizTalk Server 2013 and BAM in a Multi-Computer Environment.docx" and "Upgrading to BizTalk Server 2013 from BizTalk Server 2010-2009.docx" at
Installation Guides Related to BizTalk Server 2013. But I'm trying to find "Installing BizTalk Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012.docx" similar to what is available for BizTalk
2010 "Installing BizTalk Server 2010 on Windows Server 2008 R2 and 2008.docx".
I see other helpful sites like
Sandro's BizTalk Server Installation Scenario, but I'm also looking for word document on it.
Thanks
Bhava

There is no specific guide for installing BizTalk Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012. The guides have been refactored to eliminate these distinctions.
So long as you meet the minimum OS requirements:
Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8
the installation process is essentially the same.
I think the UI experiance from Windows Server 2003 -> 2008 was different enough to warrent a separate guide. 2008 -> 2012, not so much.

Test/Verify Biztalk 2013/Windows 2008 R2 installation

Hi
I have experienced problems with MSDTC on a new two server development box (virtual server)
BizTalk 2013/MSSQL 2012 on Windows 2008 R2
MSDTC failed connection when receive locations was started
Seems to be fine now DTC tester is working ok
I'd like to check how the installation is doing on a more regurlar basis
Any ideas, some scheduled action, a service or something
Thanks /Peter

Peter,
You can consider few options:
Since you dont have any trace of MSDTC failure in your new installation, instead of looking for an trace, you can look for its reaction like suspend message and configure an alert to
be send to you (or to support team)
Normally any MSDTC related failures on a running instance would result in a eventlog entry, and again you can configure for an alert for this event log entry.
Another option is you can create a batch file to run the DTCPing tool and it can output an log file. Your automation script can interrogate or send the copy of the log file to you.
Also in MSDTC, you can enable tracing options, where you have options like “Trace Aborted Transaction” (In the same tab you can also choose the log file location). So you can create an
automated process to send you the log file (may be by email) when the log file is created or periodically.
As said, Messagebox view can be scheduled to run and it can capture the MSDTC failures. And this report can be emailed to you.

Compilation error after installling BizTalk 2013 CU2

Hi,
I started getting the below error in the orchestration project
"non-readonly field/property access is limited to distinguished fields on class-based messages"
it was failing at this line RequestMessage.DocumentElement.LocalName == "Fault".
Here RequestMessage is a message of type System.Xml.XmlDocument.
It was working again after I uninstalled BizTalk 2013 CU2. Has anyone faced this problem and what was the solution .
Looking at the release notes of CU2 at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2892599/en-gb it says about a fix to XpathMutator class
"FIX: XpathMutatorStream class does not work as expected when you execute Xpath statements against XmlDocuments in BizTalk Server 2013"
Probably this is causing the compilation error. Can we raise this with the BizTalk Product team if someone else has also faced this issue ?
Regards,
Mahesh

What subsequent CU's? There hasn't been any CU's for BizTalk Server 2013 since CU2 which was released in Oct. 2013 (almost 1 1/2 year ago now!)

Visual Studio 2013 - which edition for a BizTalk 2013 installation ?

Hi there,
What is the lowest edition of VS2013 that will do for BT2013 ?
Is it necessary to go for ultimate or is one of the test editions enough ?

If you're checking the lowest Visual Studio edition for saving cost, then Professional edition should do.
FYI:
For BizTalk 2013, it Visual Studio 2012. And for Visual Studio 2013 is for BizTalk 2013 R2 (not 2013)
And as pointed out, "Test Professional" is not for testing.
Have a look here for the comparison for features among the Visual studio editions.

Back-up of databases
BizTalk application.
Backup the binding, parties, policies, vocabularies.
BTSNTSVC.config file.
Backup the Enterprise Single Sign-On secret
This would help you if in case of any rollback
When run the installation package for
Enterprise edition, the install will detect
the exiting version and guide you to upgrade. The install will also ensure the
installed BizTalk application is not be affected.
Use the back-ups if anything goes wrong.

BizTalk 2013 R2 - WC-Custom Adapter SAP-Binding: Unhandeld exception on failure tests

Dear Mr./Ms.
We have set up a test environment with BizTalk 2013 R2 Developer edition.
And we have also set up the SAP adapter following this blog
https://sandroaspbiztalkblog.wordpress.com/2015/03/04/biztalk-server-20132013-r2-step-by-step-wcf-sap-adapter-installation-guide/#comments
.But instead we used a WCF-Custom adapter with SAP-Binding
Everthing works fine if BizTalk can connect to SAP. But if we do some failure test, like giving in a wrong password. We get next error in the event viewer:
Application: BTSNTSvc64.exe
Framework Version: v4.0.30319
Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.
Exception Info: System.Runtime.CallbackException

We would expect that we get some kind of authentication error and a suspended message. But Instead the host instance crash and message stays in process. Thanks in advance.
Kind regards

Hi Benny,
Thanks for your feedback in BizTalk forum.
As you mentioned above, we will receive an unhandled exception when we did something wrong during the procedure. I'm afraid that this is "by design", if this request is urgent for you, you could consider contact support directly(http://support.microsoft.com
). Thanks for your understanding.

Migrate biztalk 2006R2/SQL server 2005 projects to Biztalk 2013/SQL server 2012

We have Biztalk application projects deployed on Biztalk 2006R2/SQL server 2005 environment on a single server
Now we have installed and configured Biztalk 2013/SQL server 2012 in a multicomputer environment where Biztalk server is on one computer while SQL server is on the other.
Now it's time to migrate the projects 2006R2 to 2013.. Is it a smooth process? I found a lot of posts about migration from 2006R2 to Biztalk 2010... Just wondering if it is similar or more complex?? Appreciate any help/suggestions.. thanks!!

Microsoft BizTalk Adapters for Host Systems Missing with BizTalk 2013

Hi All,
I am using BizTalk 2013 and looking for Microsoft BizTalk Adapters for Host Systems but cannot find it on Installation disk.
Do any one has idea how to go ahead with this .
Thanks
Abhishek

Hi Abhishek,
As far as what we can experience, there is not standalone download for
BizTalk 2013 Adapters for Host Systems 2013. Its part of the
Host Integration Server 2013 installtion.
HIS 2013 installation
document’s official
“Existing Product Upgrade
This release supports an in-place upgrade of earlier versions of HIS. The Host Integration Server 2013 setup automatically
upgrades your existing configuration. The following releases are supported for automatic upgrade.
Host Integration Server 2009
BizTalk Adapters for Host Systems 2.0
When you run the installation setup for
Host Integration Server 2013, we will get the information like the following. In my server I already have
BizTalk Adapters for Host Systems 2.0 (as per the requirement),
hence this installation wizard tries to upgrade it to make it compactable with 2013.
When you proceed with the installation, this will install/upgrade the BizTalk adapter to 2013.

BizTalk 2013 connectivity to CRM Dynamics 2013 Online

Hi,
For one of the upcoming integrations, out client is going for CRM Dynamics 2013 Online. We need to integrate legacy systems with CRM Dynamics 2013 Online. Since we do not have any adapter connectivity as of now from BizTalk 2013 to CRM Dynamics

BizTalk 2013 Integration with JDE EnterpriseOne 9.1

Hi Guys,
I want to connect to JDE EnterpriseOne 9.1 using the out of box Enterprise JDE adapter provided by BizTalk.
I have done standalone installation of JDE EO on my machine.
I have gone through the tutorial and found that I would need Connector.jar, Kernel.jar and JDEDynAccess.jar.
However, I have found Connector.jar and JDEDynAccess.jar but somehow I don't see Kernel.jar in the installation folders of JDE EO.
Where should I get the specified file?
Thanks in advance...
Dhiraj Bhavsar

I hope I am not the only person on the planet who is trying to implement this solution (Integrating JDE using Adapter). :-(
Does BizTalk 2013/R2 support with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.1?
Thanks & regards,
Dhiraj Bhavsar

Simple way to handle Exception in Biztalk 2013

Hello Experts,
I am working with lots of Orchestration in my Biztalk application, i am using Biztalk 2013.
Can some one tell me what is simple way to chandle exception.
I am having requirement to handle exception in 1 day....
Thanks,
Thanks and Regards, Nilesh Thakur.

First thing One day is not enough to implement exception handling framework across your your solution. :-)
But there are so many things you need to take care, like
what you want to do with the exception messages
Do you want to re-submit a message when it has failed in exception.
how would you plan to test all these exception cases, you need to prepare all your test cases before you procced for the changes.
anyways,
ESB Exception handling framework is the main candidate however you can use built-in throw exception shape in orchestration designer.
There is an example
A developers guide to handling exceptions in BizTalk Server 2006/2009/2010 , have a look, you will get your solution,
All the best.

Biztalk 2013 integration with CRM 2015

Hi,
I am working on a BizTalk 2013 integration with CRM 2015 on premise server and currently developing a POC to see how it works. There are quite a few good articles on BizTalk-CRM integration and I am referring them while building this POC. However I thought
of taking expet’s advice for this. Here are my requirements as of now.
Search CRM contacts by Fname, Lname etc.. And definitely not by Contact ID which is GUID. In this case BizTalk can expect responses like Single contact, Multiple contacts, Contact Not found or soap fault.
Create a single contact record in CRM from BizTalk.
Update Contact details in CRM like multiple addresses for a single contact.
So we have 2 approaches to integrate CRM, using untyped soap endpoint or CRM SDK.
I did an orchestration today with soap endpoint for “Retrieve” operation bypassing a GUID and can see the response returned. But how to pass the fname, lname etc. instead of GUID as there are no fields to populate in the soap Retrieve schema?
Is it wise decision to use untyped soap UI instead of CRM SDK proxy by keeping the above 3 requirements in mind?
Using SOAP endpoint, how can achieve the requirement 1 that returns multiple contacts?
I have seen articles using Query and Fetch to get multiple contacts and I really don’t understand it. Is it the only way to get multiple contacts?
Thanks!
JB

Hi Abhishek,
While exploring the CRM REST capabilities i found the below content on MSDN that says the REST endpoint works only for getting the contact by uniqueID and not by firstname and lastname etc...
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg328090.aspx#BKMK_RetrievingRecords
Retrieving records
HTTP GET is used when you are retrieving records. When a unique identifier for
a specific record is provided, only that record will be retrieved. Otherwise, any system query options that are defined will be applied and up to 50 records will be retrieved that match any system query option filters.
We can't use a GUID as it is name search from customer website and GUID available at that stage.
So if it works only with GUID then we have to use either CRM SDK or SOAP enpoint right?
Cheers
JB

Biztalk 2013 R2 ESB toolkit support and Licence issues

Hi,
Currently we are using Biztalk 2013 R2 standard version and have not installed/configured ESB toolkit yet. Now i am exploring the options to use the ESB toolkit as it is pretty good for the exception management and it comes with nice portal as well.I have
used the ESB in the past with Biztalk 2010 so i have a favor for the toolkit.
But one of our consultant said that the ESB toolkit is not supported by Microsoft for the standard version and it is supported only with enterprise version of Biztalk. He also mentioned that once we configure ESB with standard version Microsoft does not
support ESB and also the entire Biztalk server So i am afraid of that and thought of validating the information with right people.
Can someone please answer the below questions for me?
Can we use ESB toolkit with Biztalk standard version? If so how about support from Microsoft? Does Microsoft support at least production server OR not?
Do we need enterprise version only for this?
I used ESB with Biztalk 2010 in the past and though there are minor issues i personally like it . But what are your thoughts of using ESB?
Here are the technologies we are using
Biztalk 2013 R2, Visual studio 2013 and SQL server 2014. Just to mention Visual studio is not available in test and production servers.
Thanks
JB

Hi,
Why you want to use BizTalk Standard Edition in Production Environment?
BTS Standard only run on a single BizTalk server with a maximum of two CPUs, maximum of five "BizTalk Applications",
However, Enterprise does not have such limitations
Yes, it is not supported and it has not been extensively tested by Microsoft on Standard Edition, but it doesn't mean you can’t
install it.
From BizTalk
Server: ESB Survival Guide has this requirement:
BizTalk Server 2010 Enterprise/Developer Edition
Understanding is:
ESB toolklit uses one of the five applications that can be deployed on BizTalk 2010 Standard Edition
ESB toolkit will work on BizTalk 2010 Standard Edition, but it's not supported
Requirements for ESB 2.2 with BizTalk 2013 is not specified as such, but I suspect the same limitation applies.
Refer: BizTalk
ESB Toolkit 2.1 on BizTalk Standard Edition environment , does it work ?
