Re-configure database on biztalk 2013

We have installed and configured Biztalk server 2013 in a multicomputer environement where database is located on a different server than that of the Biztalk server.
Later we had to move the databases to another server and now it's a different database server with a different name. And now it is still pointing to the old db server, and we need to point the Biztalk server to the new database server.
In the Biztalk configuration console, I can go to 'view' tab->'databases' But edit option is disabled
Should I 'unconfigure Features' and configure it again?
Can someone please give step by step details?(any other pre-requisites before we do it)

So, there's a couple ways to do this depending on your experiance and comfort with BizTalk Server.
You need to start with Moving BizTalk Server Databases:

This however assumes a planned move.

Sharepoint server 2013 configuration issue - failed to create configuration database

Hi All,
I have installed the SharePoint server 2013. After installing the SharePoint products, the configuration stops at failure of creating configuration database.
Some system configuration & info:
- 1 Domain controller server run Active Directory services on Windows server 2008 R2 SP1 (PC1 with name DC.Brainfiniti.com)
- 1 Server which is used for installing Sharepoint server 2013 and MS SQL server 2008 R2 SP1 (PC2 with name App.Brainfiniti.com)
- All of PCs were satisfied the requirement of Sharepoint server 2013
- Firewall turned off & No antivirus tool was installed.
- During installing of Sharepoint, choose "Complete" option: Farm mode and use SQL Server instead of SQL Express.
- During configuration, created a new farm with a domain user account.
- Use domain account to log on and install, configure in Sharepoint & SQL server (PC2)
ATTEMPTS:
1. Tried install and set up all of steps with just 1 account - domain administrator.
2. Tried with separate domain account:
- SQL Service account use for:
+ Install SQL server 2008
+ Connect all SQL services
+ Admin for SQL server
- Setup account use for:
+ Member of local administrator group in PC2
+ Install Sharepoint
+ Run Configuration wizard
+ Was granted permission in SQL database: dbcreator, securityadmin, sysadmin and deselect serveradmin role.
+ Was choose for the database account in configuration database step
Also tried with SQL service account in this step.
3. Tried with Standalone mode for Sharepoint installing
4. Trie with domain name: Brainfiniti.local
5. Tried with some another solution from topic relate to database configuration in our community but not successful.
But all attempts are failed at this configuration database step :'(
Please correct me if I am going wrong by missing something or do I need to start/install some services.
Screenshot Attached
Sorry! Cannot add screenshot because my account is still not verified. Will add later.

I just post a part of its logs which contain "error" string because it's too long.

Please help me with this mix up :'(
p/s: sorry for my English!
Thanks,

Configuration Database issue while Deployment.

Hi,
I have a BizTalk 2010 project which I want to deploy on a remote server. When I go to
Properties-> Deployment -> Server and enter the Server name as 'RemoteServer'. I see an error in the Configuration Database:
<No BizTalk Configuration database(s) found on server 'RemoteServer'.>
and when I try to deploy I get error: Parameter name: strDBName
However, when I open other projects, they already have Server 'RemoteServer' selected and Configuration database as 'BizTalkMgmtDb'. Also, I can successfully deploy these projects to the 'RemoteServer'. So, why in this project
I'm not getting any Configuration database?
Please help.
Thanks.
Kunal G

Hi Kunal,
I did some more work on this.
Case 4:
In Visual Studio’s “Deployment" panes --> Server, if I select any server where I don't have Login permission, then I get the Login error as you have mentioned:
"Login failed for user 'domainNameAprabhu'."
Resolution to Case 3:
In case 4, what I also noticed is when I update the existing Server name (server name where my BizTalkMgmtDb exist) in the Deployment pane, the drop down box unable to recognize the
new SQL server (or not able to refresh the Databasename when any change happen to the Server name) failed with the error:
<No BizTalk Configuration database(s) found on server 'SQL Serer Name'>
However, if I start a new project from scratch, the application can easily find BizTalkMgmtDb.
Then I logged into the database server where the BizTalkMgmtDb exist --> Security --> Logins --> Selected the group where my login (login to the machine where I have SQL Server, if database in the
same machine as Visual studio then you can do this in the same server) --> Properties --> Server Roles --> Check "sysadmin" access.
Then I came back to my Visual Studio, closed and restarted the Visual Studio, went to the Deployment pane in the Server property, I can now get the BizTalkMgmtDb without any issue. It’s a guaranteed privilege
issue.

How to configure Send Handler for BizTalk 2013 Dynamic Send Port on deployment?

Hi,
I do know how to manually configure a send handler for a dynamic send port in BizTalk 2013 Administration console. Though, once you export your application's configuration to a binding file, the dynamic send port's configuration does not
contain any information regarding the send handler. When you try to use this binding file when deploying your application your dynamic port's send handler falls back to the default host instance.
So my question is, how could we automate this process to avoid manual step in a dynamic port configuration during deployment?
Thank you,
--Vlad

Hey vlad,
As discussed at work in the office.. I woudl take the powershelll approach for now as a workaround. Here's a trivial script for my local dev box (all in one biztalk & SQL) (must be run in an x86 powershell session):
param
[string] $bizTalkDbServer = ".",
[string] $bizTalkDbName = "BizTalkMgmtDb",
[string] $fileHostInstance = "SendingHost",
[string] $sendPortName = "sm_dynamic_sp_test"
[System.reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM") | Out-Null
$catalog = New-Object Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM.BtsCatalogExplorer
$catalog.ConnectionString = "SERVER=$bizTalkDbServer;DATABASE=$bizTalkDbName;Integrated Security=SSPI"
foreach($sp in $catalog.SendPorts)
if($sp.Name -eq $sendPortName)
  "Found send port $($sp.Name), analyzing send handler"
  foreach($sh in $sp.DynamicSendHandlers)
   if($sh.SendHandler.TransportType.Name -eq "FILE")
    if($sh.SendHandler.Host.Name -ne $fileHostInstance)
     "Changing $($sh.Name) send handler to '$fileHostInstance' from '$($sh.SendHandler.Host.Name)'"
     $sp.SetSendHandler("FILE", $fileHostInstance)
    else
     "Send handler for $($sp.Name) is already '$fileHostInstance' ignorning .. "
$catalog.SaveChanges()

Kindly, let me knoe if anyone had similar issue and it has been resolved , or any other pointers
With Regards,
Gopal Talreja

I faced similar problem while installing BAMAlerts on 2nd BizTalk 2013 R2 server in a group. The reason for this error is the Wizard is unable to create the windows service (BAMAlerts) during the configuration. To fix the issue you need to create the service
manually. I had to perform following actions:
1.CREATE SERVICE:
Start command prompt as administrator on the node with problems. Execute (do not use copy paste from email, it often gives error):
sc create BAMAlerts binPath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2013\Tracking\BAMAlerts.exe”
2. SET USERNAME and PASSWORD on this Service:
Open services admin console, and change the user and password for the BAMAlerts Service.
- Start the service.
Start again the configuration for the BAM on the node with problems and complete the BAMTools and BAMAlerts configration (do not enter any username and password in the BAMAlerts configuration wizard).
3. RUN SQL Statement:
After starting the Service, BAMAlerts service may stop with following error in the event log:
Microsoft.BizTalk.Bam.Management.BamManagerException: Encountered error while executing command on SQL Server "A-CLS01VISQL1". --->
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'bam_Metadata_GetProperty', database 'BAMPrimaryImport', schema 'dbo'.
To solve this, run following SQL statement
USE BAMPrimaryImport
GRANT
EXECUTE
ON
bam_Metadata_GetProperty
TO
BAM_ManagementNSReader;
GO
This should solve the problem.
Thanks to Microsoft support engineer for help.
Strange bug and I hope MS will solve this issue in next patch/CU/update

Sharepoint 2013 MP - Configuration Database connection failed

Hi all!
I run a WS2012 R2 with SCOM 2012R2. I'm trying to monitor Sharepoint 2013 Farm, with the Sharepoint 2013 MP. The Sharepoint farm and it's SQL server is on another domain, with two-way trust, and the agents are working on the Sharepoint and SQL servers.
I use SQL aliases for Sharepoint DB's, so I've made an override to the connection string to make it connect to the correct database.
The override is working fine, I can see that SCOM is trying to connect to the SQL server, but I cannot seem to make SCOM use the correct Run As account on these configuration databases. Most of the Sharepoint MP seems to be working fine, with the farm admin
account, but I don't know how I can force this override connectionString to use a specific user.
WS2012R2 with SCOM2012R2 UR3
Sharepoint 2013 Farm on WS2008R2 OS.
MS SQL 2012 on WS2008R2.
It uses the default SCOM monitoring account, instead of the Sharepoint RunAs account.
Any suggestions?
How do I make it use the correct Run As account?
(This guy has the
same problem)
Thanks,
Nikolaj

I was looking at this issue not too long ago, and looked through the management pack xml, to see if there was a missing secure reference for DB connection monitors. I only glanced through the MP, but it looked to me as if the DB connection
monitors references the same account as the other sharepoint monitors. (Yes, that full-blown farm admin account). Again I am not sure, but it seems the management pack has trouble using the referenced RunAs account in the connection strings and then, because
the watcher node is setup default to run off the management server, it falls back to the management server action account.
You mention, that you have a two-way trust between you management group and SPS SQL servers. You could then bring this to work by granting your management server action account public rights on your configuration and content DB’s. Not
optimal, but it’s a workaround. For SPS 2013 this should work without changing the connection strings, as you would have to with SPS 2010.
I know this is not solution you’re are looking for, but it just might be enough for you to get a step further. I don’t know of any solution, so far, to get the DB connections to use the SPS RunAs account.

BizTalk 2013 SFTP Adapter : Host Instance configured for SFTP Receive cause high CPU usage

Hi,
Our BizTalk 2013 Server test env have 16 GB RAM. We have one SFTP Receive Location which is using a dedicated Host instance for SFTP receive.
As soon as we start this SFTP Host Instance it starts consuming 50-60% CPU. (Even when it is not handling any file receive)
As suggested in below thread, to fix this issue, we changed the SFTP RL default configuration. i.e. Changed polling interval from default 0 sec to
10 minutes and also changed the RL Schedule window to business hours only.
https://connectedpawns.wordpress.com/2014/04/13/biztalk-2013-sftp-adapter-biztalk-host-receiving-throttled-because-processmemory-exceeded-the-configured-throttling-limit/#comment-2602
Even after changing the RL configuration , the Host Instance continuously consumes ~60% CPU.
Any suggestions to troubleshoot more on this issue ?
Thanks in advance !!
Anoop

This is one of the issue which has already been raised to Microsoft and hopefully a public build will be available soon in next cumulative update pack .
There are variety of reason for this starting for password mismatch or password not given , SFTP adapter unable to connect and so on .
There is good post here in below link for this issue
http://thoughtsofmarcus.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/leaving-password-blank-in-biztalk-2013.html
Another greate artcicle is by Nino which states these issues .SFTP adapter is protocol sensitive and some configuration by server side, can cause a lot of crazy situations

WCF-Custom Biztalk 2013 - Access to SQL Server 2014 Database

Hi,
i don't see nowhere of capability from the Biztalk adapter to access differente version of Sql server.
I want to send ou receive information with a WCF-Custom from SQL Server 2014, i'm in Biztalk 2013 (not R2 ) it's possible ?
Do you have a link or a list of version autorized to accessed by the wcf-custom Sql binging ?
Thanks a lot

Hi, I can suppose that the main problem for Joao is not if it works in general or not.
The real problem is that he is not sure if this configuration is officially supported by Microsoft.
If you are developing an integration project for a client you need to have this guarantee. If not, you can have an unsupported scenario, and if something fails you could have a big problem with your client.
If I were you, I would talk with the client account manager about this.
Regards.

SharePoint 2013 - Server Error in '/' Application - This operation can be performed only on a computer that is joined to a server farm by users who have permissions in SQL Server to read from the configuration database

Hi
After I ran SharePoint configuration wizard successfully to upgrade to SharePoint 2013 / SP1.
I can open Central Administration site just fine.
but now when I open any Site collection, I got this error.
Server Error in '/' Application
This operation can be performed only on a computer that is joined to a server farm by users who have permissions in SQL Server to read from the configuration database. To connect this server to the server farm, use the SharePoint Products Configuration
Wizard, located on the Start menu in Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Products
I have restarted all the servers: SQL server, WFE and APP servers but still cann't get this resolve.
Services on all servers are running, IIS - application pools are running.
Can someone help with where that could be a problem or if there is a solution.
Thanks in advance for your comments or advices.
Swanl

Please verify the followings:
Make sure that from the SharePoint front end and application servers that you can ping your SQL server.
Make sure that your Farm account has permission to the configuration database.
Lastly verify that your database didn't for some reasons go into recovery mode.
once everything is fine and you are still having issues, restart the SQL host service on the SQL server.
Once the service is restarted you will need to reboot Central Admin and then your front end servers.
In addition, as you built your farm inside the firewall, please disable the firwall, or create rules for SQL Server service in the firwall on SQL server.
More information about creating rules in firewall, please refer to the following posts: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/c5d4d0d0-9a3b-4431-8150-17ccfbc6fb82/can-not-create-data-source-to-an-sql-server http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1929/configure-windows-firewall-to-work-with-sql-server/

Biztalk 2013 configuring to receive a 999

While attempting to process a 999 file that we receive (not generating it), the message goes suspended with the following error
Message Type 999 is not allowed as part of the Agreement
Since there is no 999 in the dropdown list for supported transactions, and there's lots of hints on the web that say the support for 999 was moved into the base artifact set for Biztalk 2013, what does one need to do in the party agreements to set to receive
a 999
Thanks
Scott K Berger

Hi,
BizTalk Server 2013 introduces a new way to configure this, while allowing us to use out of the box components and update the setting at the agreement level.
For more information, you can refer here(#new way to 999)

Hope it can help you.

Got the solution
We need to proceed in such a way that DB component alone need to be installed in DB Server. Rest in BizTalk Application Servers

BAM Portal configuration error in BizTalk Server 2013 R2

I have tried 2 attempts to build out a BizTalk Server 2013 R2, I have followed the MSDN Install instructions, and I keep on getting an error when configuring BAM Portal. I have the logfile available, I need to know what the experts need to see in order to
give me an answer. Understand that we have been using BizTalk Server 2013 for the last two years, and a new developer wants the R2 version and BAM Portal configured. As an administrator I have fought this to no end, and now I have enough evidence to go back
to our project manager and explain why you do not install every feature on a server. Prove me wrong EXPERTS!

" I need to know what the experts need to see in order to give me an answer."
Experts needs:
1) Little background of the issue you are facing.
2) The log file generated.
3) The configuration of your server.
"now I have enough evidence to go back to our project manager and explain why you do not install every
feature on a server."
Disagree, It is indeed possible to install all the components and feature on a server. Somewhere someone would have installed BizTalk 2013 R2 and all its components in exactly same server configuration successfully in which you are trying to achieve, the
only difference could be a missing Package, Patch, Cumulative Update, Service or any configuration miss at your end.
Pls read more about BizTalk 2013R2 installation on Installation Overview for BizTalk Server 2013 and 2013 R2.
Review the Hardware
and Software Requirements for BizTalk Server 2013 and 2013 R2.
Understand the Considerations
Before Installing BizTalk Server 2013 and 2013 R2.

BizTalk 2013 choice for "999" file type missing in Party Agreement configuration

Ok guys--this makes no sense. In BizTalk 2010, we were able to select the 999 file type in the party Config/Agreement section, specifically in the "Envelopes", "Local Host Settings" & Transaction Set List" sections under
"Transaction Set Settings". I could see if this was a 997 file type as that should be deprecated under 5010, but this is 999, the new format.
Since my experience with 2013 is limited, can anyone tell me if there is a service pack or CU we missed when this was setup that might include this? A setting somewhere perhaps?
Any assistance is appreciated--thanks in advance---
Tom

Confirmed as bug / oversight in Biztalk 2013 -Ugh
Hello Scott,
We did an in-house repro and realized that this does not work.
It seems in BizTalk Server 2010, we had 999 listed under the
supported transactions list, but it is somehow not listed in BizTalk Server 2013.
We have raised a ticket to the Product Group to review this and make the required change. However, we do not have an ETA by when this change will be implemented.
Thanks,
Kshitij

BizTalk 2013 - BAMAlerts service crash

Hi,
I am deploying BizTalk into a new clean Production environment. My topology is the following:
- 2 SQL Server machines (clustered)
- 2 BizTalk application servers (with BTS runtime)
- 1 BAM server
I have everything deployed and working well except for the BAMAlerts service crashing a minute after it starts on the BAM server.
The software installed on the BAM server is:
Windows 2008 R2 x64
SQL Server 2012 SP1 x64 with the following features:
Reporting Services (Native)
SQL Server Data Tools
Client Tools Connectivity
Integration Services
Management Tools – Basic
Management Tools – Complete
SQL Server 2012 SP1 Cumulative Update 9
BizTalk Server 2013 x64 with the following features:
Portal Components
Business Activity Monitoring
Administrative Tools and Monitoring
Additional Software
Enterprise Single Sign-On Administration Module
Enterprise Single Sign-On Master Secret Server
BAM Alert Provider for SQL Notification Services
BAM Client
BAM-Eventing
Office Excel 2013 (x86)
Once the BizTalk binaries are installed I installed Windows Update suggested patches including the update for BizTalk Server 2013 (KB2830546).
I then went on and configured the relevant features. Configuration worked well but the BAMAlerts service crashes 1 minute after starting with the following error:
Microsoft.BizTalk.Bam.Management.BamManagerException: Encountered error while executing command on SQL Server "". ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection
to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
I verified the following:
A database mail profile was created on the SQL Server instance and it works (I can use it to send emails)
Using the BAMAlerts service account I am able to connect to the SQL Server instance using Named Pipes or TCP/IP, call BizTalkMgmtDb.dbo.adm_Group_GetBAMServerAndDBName or query tables
I installed SQL Server 2005 Notification Services x64 in order to see if it helps but no success.
I installed BizTalk 2013 Cumulative Update 2 but it did no help either.
The worse part is that I hit the same issue when setting up our UAT environment, tried a number of things and ended up with a setup that works but I am not able to reproduce that success in Prod...
