Stopping message at Pipeline component

Hi all,
I have a message and I am checking if the file size is more than 4 MB, the files should be routed back in a email.
If it is less than 4 MB, it should be processed further with orchestration.
Now i have written the code and working fine, I am just not sure if I can return a null pINMsg incase size is more than 4 MB. As of now I thought of constructing a null data message with only namespace and reject it in the orchestration.
Is there any other way to ignore the 4 MB message in the pipeline ??
Thanks,
Varun
Thanks, Varun

Hi Varun,
If you look closer to your requirement, it’s not “stopping” the message if it’s more than 4MB. It’s actually
If the message size is greater than 4 MB,
then send email with received file as attachment
Else
send/process the message in an Orchestration.
For this requirement, you can do the following:
Create a custom pipeline component use it in Receive Location. In the component check the size of the received message as you do now. If it’s lesser than 4 MB proceed with
it by publishing the message to message Box where your Orchestration will subscribe the published message.
Again in the same custom receive pipeline component, If the message size is greater than 4 MB, then store the received message to a local drive’s (or shared drive) folder.
Don’t publish the >4MB message, but construct a trigger-like message which contains the path where the received file is saved. Publish this trigger-like message into message Box in the case of <4 MB.
Have a send port with filter for message type of the trigger-like message. In the send port, use another custom send pipeline with a pipeline component which will receive
the trigger message (which would have been published into msgbox in case of >4MB). Retrieve the URL/path for the saved <4MB file construct an email message and with the >4 MB file from local/shared drive as attachment.
With this design, your requirement is satisfied also you have not published the >4MB file into BizTalk message box.

Custom Pipeline Component stopped changing input filename

Hi
In my project, I have a custom pipeline component to change the input file name. I use it in the receive pipeline decode stage. It was working initially when I had only a receive pipeline and custom pipeline component in my solution. later I introduced
two schemas, an orchestration, map and a send pipeline. The rename is not working anymore. Please help.
receive adapter: FILE
send adapter: FTP
Custom pipeline component: (File Name Setter)
Receive pipeline:
decode: custom pipeline component to rename the filename
disassemble: flatfile disassembler conecting to a document schema
Map:
Schema 1 to Schema 2 (transforms from Windows to Unix format)
Orchestration:
receive message
transform using map above
send message
Exception Handler
Send pipeline:
FlatFile assembler
manibest

May be its not working now, because in the orchestration which you have added,
you’re constructing a new message from the received message and the context properties from the Received message is not copied across to the newly constructed message. So when you use “%SourceFileName%” macro in the send port,
the ReceivedFileName context property is missing in the newly constructed message which is sent out.
So in your Orchestration, while constructing (in MessageAssignment shape) the outbound message from the Received message, copy the context property of the Received message to the newly constructed message. Something like this
//This line copies all the context properties from received message to the outputted message
msgOutputted (*)= msgReceived(*)
//or
//This line just copies the receive file name context property from received message to the outputted message
msgOutputted (FILE.ReceivedFileName)= msgReceived (FILE.ReceivedFileName).
If you’re not using the Orchestration or constructing the new message (even in map), then just add the schemas/orchestration or any pipeline would not affect the ReceiveFileName code. May be in this case, debug the pipeline and also check whether the outputted
message has ReceivedFileName in its context property.
If this answers your question please mark it accordingly. If this post is helpful, please vote as helpful by clicking the upward arrow mark next to my reply.

Custom pipeline component creates the folder name to archive messages

Hi
I have an requirement that a BizTalk application is receiving untyped messages and at the receive location the pipeline have to archive the incoming message with the specifications:
suppose I have an xml like
<PurchaseOrder>
<OrderId>1001</OrderId>
<OrderSource>XYZ</OrderSource>
<Code>O01</Code>
</PartyType>
In the pipeline component it has to read this xml and have to use OrderSource value 'XYZ' to create a archival folder and the message have to archive with file name '%MessageId%'
It has to be done by writing custom pipeline component where I am not familiar with c# coding, Can anyone please how to implement mechanism.
Thanks In Advance

Hi Arun,
Use
BizTalk Server Pipeline Component Wizard to create a decode pipeline component for receive. Install this wizard. This shall help you to create the template project for your pipeline component stage.
Use the following code in the Execute method of the pipeline component code. This code archives the file based with name of the file name received.
public Microsoft.BizTalk.Message.Interop.IBaseMessage Execute(Microsoft.BizTalk.Component.Interop.IPipelineContext pc, Microsoft.BizTalk.Message.Interop.IBaseMessage inmsg)
MemoryStream tmpStream = new MemoryStream();
try
string strReceivedFilename = null;
DateTime d = DateTime.Now;
try
//Get the file name
strReceivedFilename = inmsg.Context.Read("ReceivedFileName", "http://schemas.microsoft.com/BizTalk/2003/file-properties").ToString();
if (strReceivedFilename.Contains("\\"))
strReceivedFilename = strReceivedFilename.Substring(strReceivedFilename.LastIndexOf("\\") + 1, strReceivedFilename.Length - strReceivedFilename.LastIndexOf("\\") - 1);
catch
strReceivedFilename = System.Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
originalStream = inmsg.BodyPart.GetOriginalDataStream();
int readCount;
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
// Copy the entire stream into a tmpStream, so that it can be seakable.
while ((readCount = originalStream.Read(buffer, 0, 1024)) > 0)
tmpStream.Write(buffer, 0, readCount);
tmpStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
//ToDo for you..
//Access the receive message content using standard XPathReader to access values of OrderSource and construct file pathAccess the receive message content using standard XPathReader to acceess values of OrderSource and contruct the file path
string strFilePath = //Hold the value of the file path with the value of OrderSource
string strCurrentTime = d.ToString("HH_mm_ss.ffffff");
strFilePath += "\\" + strReceivedFilename + "_";
FileStream fileStream = null;
try
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1);
fileStream = new FileStream(strFilePath + strCurrentTime + ".dat", FileMode.CreateNew);
catch (System.IO.IOException e)
// Handle the exception, it must be 'File already exists error'
// Wait for 10ms, change the file name and try creating the file again
// If the second 'file create' also fails, it must be a genuine error, it'll be thrown to BTS engine
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(10);
strCurrentTime = d.ToString("HH_mm_ss.ffffff"); // get current time again
string dtcurrentTime = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-ddHH_mm_ss.ffffff");
fileStream = new FileStream(strFilePath + strCurrentTime + ".dat", FileMode.CreateNew);
while ((readCount = tmpStream.Read(buffer, 0, 1024)) > 0)
fileStream.Write(buffer, 0, readCount);
if (fileStream != null)
fileStream.Close();
fileStream.Dispose();
if (originalStream.CanSeek)
originalStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
else
ReadOnlySeekableStream seekableStream = new ReadOnlySeekableStream(originalStream);
seekableStream.Position = 0;
inmsg.BodyPart.Data = seekableStream;
tmpStream.Dispose();
catch (Exception ex)
System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("Archive Pipeline Error", string.Format("MessageArchiver failed: {0}", ex.Message));
finally
if (tmpStream != null)
tmpStream.Flush();
tmpStream.Close();
if (originalStream.CanSeek)
originalStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
return inmsg;
In the above code, you have do a section of code which will access the receive message content using standard XPathReader to access values of OrderSource and construct the file path. I have
commented the place where you have to do the same. You can read the XPathReader about here..http://blogs.msdn.com/b/momalek/archive/2011/12/21/streamed-xpath-extraction-using-hidden-biztalk-class-xpathreader.aspx

Accessing user attributes from a pipeline component

Hello,
I'm using WLCS & WLPS 3.1. I use webflow and I have implemented the page
transition myself to work with the portal. Everything is working fine.
I'm planning to implement a complex step of a business process as a pipeline
component. For various reasons, this PC will be implemented as an EJB. To
perform its job, this PC needs to get information about the user that is
currently logged in. More specifically, it needs to lookup custom attributes
from the user profile (i.e. user property set).
So my question is : is this possible directly from the PC, or do I have to
populate the pipeline session with required information in the input
processor?
Thank you for your advice
Nicolas

Hello Ture,
Thanks for both posts.

I have not tried this myself. I think that the disconnect between the
pipeline session and the portal session is probably the fact that theattributes
in the portal session have their keys "fixed up" by prepending the portal
request URI. This is made possible by the
com.beasys.commerce.foundation.flow.jsp.DefaultDestinationDeterminer,which the
PortalDestinationDeterminer extends. It puts a "TRAFFIC.URI" attributeinto the
each request that goes through the FlowManagerServlet for the portal. Inthe
Acme exampleportal, the "SERVICEMANAGER.USER" attribute is put into theportal
HttpSession as "exampleportal.SERVICEMANAGER.USER".
If you want to get to the cached profile from your portal from yourpipeline
component (PC) then you would have to know that the name is "fixed up" tobe
"exampleportal.CACHED_PROFILE". There are probably several different waysyou
could get the "TRAFFIC.URI" information to your PC.

How to call Party Validation in the Custom EDI Pipeline component

Hi ,
There are two business divisions in our organizations. We have one party. Now we have to enable the ISA13 duplicate functionality for one business divisions. But the sender will send the same ISA06 and ISA08. Inorder to enable it may followed
the below approach,
Receive the File -> Change the ISA08 value -> Publish -> Validate with the party (Check ISA13 enabled) .
For the above process, created a pipeline component to change the ISA08 value. Now how do we can enable the message to get validated for "Validate with the party (Check ISA13 enabled)".
Thanks,
Sathish

Thank you boatseller for the swift response.
Yes I have created a new agreement with Check ISA13 enabled.
Yes i have placed the custom component(replace ISA08) in the Decode stage, then i used the builtin EDIDisassembler in the Disassembler stage, It is working fine. But i don't want to disassemble the message. Just required to validate the Party with its agreement.
And let it get streamed to next stage.
Please advice.

Issue with custom receive Pipeline component

I have been facing issue with creating a custom receive pipeline component. The Pipeline is to receive large file, if the file size is large it has to read the incoming stream to a folder and pass only some meta data through the MessageBox. The Execute method
I am using is,
#region IComponent Members
public IBaseMessage Execute(IPipelineContext pContext, IBaseMessage pInMsg)
if (_largeFileLocation == null || _largeFileLocation.Length == 0)
_largeFileLocation = Path.GetTempPath();
if (_thresholdSize == null || _thresholdSize == 0)
_thresholdSize = 4096;
if (pInMsg.BodyPart.GetOriginalDataStream().Length > _thresholdSize)
Stream originalStream = pInMsg.BodyPart.GetOriginalDataStream();
string largeFilePath = _largeFileLocation + "\\" + pInMsg.MessageID.ToString() + ".zip";
FileStream fs = new FileStream(largeFilePath, FileMode.Create);
// Write message to disk
byte[] buffer = new byte[1];
int bytesRead = originalStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
while (bytesRead != 0)
fs.Flush();
fs.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
bytesRead = originalStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
fs.Flush();
fs.Close();
// Create a small xml file
string xmlInfo = "<ns0:MsgInfo xmlns:ns0='http://SampleTestPL.SchemaLocation'><LargeFilePath>" + largeFilePath + "</LargeFilePath></ns0:MsgInfo>";
byte[] byteArray = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(xmlInfo);
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(byteArray);
pInMsg.BodyPart.Data = ms;
return pInMsg;
#endregion
Here I want the xml to be dropped in to the File share Eg: E:\Dropbox\PL\send and and the entire message to be dropped in the folder Eg: E:\Dropbox\sendLarge. so in the ReceivePipeline properties i set like
And in the send port the destination i give is E:\Dropbox\PL\send.
The issue is both the xml and the message are getting dropped in to the same folder E:\Dropbox\PL\send and the message is not getting dropped in E:\Dropbox\SendLarge. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Where do Pipeline Component classes get loaded from?

Can someone please point me to some documentation that describes where my Pipeline
Component classes get loaded from?
I have just wasted hours on this - to find that they are not loaded from WEB-INF/classes
- but instead they must be available to the EJB classloader. The sampleportal
is completely misleading in putting the classes in WEB-INF/classes - because they
are in fact loaded from the sampleportal EJB jar!
Did I miss something obvious?

Question about login in Pipeline Component

Dear All,
I'm working on registering a new user. Soon after user submits registration, an InputProcessor
will validate its registration data. If success, a Pipeline Component will create
a user via UserManager.createUser() method and then will set properties via ProfileWrapper.setProperty()
method. But before I can setProperty I need to login user. I'm think of using ServletAuthentication.weak()
method to do so, but I don't know how to get a HttpServletRequest object or HttpSession
object. Can anyone tell me how to do it? Also, will it be any trouble to logout if
I use this way to login user?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Tim

Tim,
You can get the HttpServletResponse from the PipelineSession from inside you
PipelineComponent (with signature):
PipelineSession process(PipelineSession pipelineSession,
java.lang.Object requestContext)
By calling:
reponse (HttpServletResponse) = pipelineSession.getRequestScopedAttribute(
WebFlowConstants.HTTP_SERVLET_RESPONSE,
pipelineSession.getContext().getCurrentNamespace(), context );
From the reponse you can get the HttpSession by simply calling getSession.
Let me know if you have any problems.
Sincerely,
Daniel Selman

Pipeline component for replace the values in send pipeline 837P

hi friends,
I am working in 837P splitting the claims.When i am sending using sendpipe line.
I need pass the 2010bb loop NM103 and NM109 defaluts values,
ex: NM103=100,NM109=0123456789
like can you help me write pipeline component to manipulate the XPath and replace the default values.
THanks

you will need to extract data from the message coming on your receive location.
You can create two diffferent function which can do your task.
The first one is to get the stream from the message and create a seekable one to be used later on.
private Stream GetMessageStream(Microsoft.BizTalk.Message.Interop.IBaseMessage msg, Microsoft.BizTalk.Component.Interop.IPipelineContext context)
   Stream stream = msg.BodyPart.GetOriginalDataStream();
    if (!stream.CanSeek)
        ReadOnlySeekableStream readStream = new ReadOnlySeekableStream(stream);
        if (context != null)
            context.ResourceTracker.AddResource(readStream);
        msg.BodyPart.Data = readStream;
        stream = readStream;
    return stream;
The second method is the one that would perform the data extraction as follows.
private string ExtractDataValueXPath(Stream MsgStream, string MsgXPath)
    XmlReaderSettings settings = new XmlReaderSettings()
      ConformanceLevel = ConformanceLevel.Document,
        IgnoreWhitespace = true,
        ValidationType = ValidationType.None,
        IgnoreProcessingInstructions = true,
        IgnoreComments = true,
        CloseInput = false
    MsgStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
    XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(MsgStream, settings);
    string strValue = null;
    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(MsgXPath))
        if (reader.Read())
            XPathDocument xPathDoc = new XPathDocument(reader);
            XPathNavigator xNavigator = xPathDoc.CreateNavigator();
            XPathNodeIterator xNodes = xNavigator.Select(MsgXPath);
            if (xNodes.Count != 0 && xNodes.MoveNext())
                strValue = xNodes.Current.Value;
            MsgStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
    return strValue;
You can update the node with the Xpath of the element.
Thanks

Deploying the custom Pipeline component in Production

I would like to know how to deploy the Pipeline component in to production. I created an an application in dev with the custom receive pipeline component in it. Thought importing the application's msi and binding file in production will automatically deploy
the pipeline component in to Pipeline component's folder. Bad thing is I didnt check if .dll was in Pipeline component's folder and ran the application. Now the messages got suspended with error
There was a failure executing the receive pipeline:Source: "Unknown " Receive Port: "" URI: "" Reason: Could not load file or assembly 'file:///E:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2013\Pipeline Components\.dll' or
one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Help me out with this. Thanks

You do not need to copy the DLL in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2013\Pipeline Components.
You have to just GAC the dll on all the BizTalk servers and restart the host instance.
Please see
BizTalk: Deploying Custom Pipeline Components in BizTalk Server 2006 and Higher wiki article
I hope this solves all your queries.

Do not put the Assembly in the %\Pipeline Components folder. Pipeline Component Assemblies should be in the GAC only.

Custom Pipeline Component - Deployment Issue

We have created a custom pipeline component that logs information via ETW. The component was added to a suite of common pipelines that our applications share, as well as to a handful of application specific pipelines that require other custom components
used only by those applications. I made a change to the component and deployed the DLL to our test environment, added it to the GAC and restarted all of the host instances. The common pipelines all seem to work fine with the new DLL, but for some reason those
pipelines that are application specific (which use the same version of the DLL) all started generating the "Object reference not set to an instance of the object" error. So I replaced the new DLL with the original version and all of the pipelines
(common and otherwise) worked okay again. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get the application specific pipelines to work with the modified DLL?
Thank you.

Quite certain. The application specific pipelines call public methods that write string data to a log file - they don't pass any parameters - all of that is contained within the component itself. We only changed the content of the data for the internal parameters,
not the data type, so the signature of the procedures remain the same.
The original author of the code had the component logging every attribute of the pipeline and received message to the log file which was creating very large and non-useful logs. We only replaced the call to the pc.GetProperties() and inmsg.GetProperties()
methods (both return string values) with concise strings containing the data we need logged.
The first version of the pipeline did not contain the GetProperties methods, those were added later and the pipeline was deployed for testing. At that time, all of the application specific pipelines began generating errors that the GetProperties() method
was not recognized, so we ended up having to go back and rebuild and re-deploy all of the application specific pipelines to use the newer version in order to get them to work. We should not have to go through this much effort to replace a shared
library, and am hoping we can find a way to deploy it without having to redeploy all of the other pipelines as well.
We deployed the new pipeline according to Microsoft's recommendations in
BizTalk: Deploying Custom Pipeline Components in BizTalk Server 2006 and Higher so we are left scratching our heads at this point.
Thanks, Bruce

HP LaserJet 4MP jobs stopped message

I realize that many people have had this issue, but I haven't seen my specific situation in the discussions archives, so here goes:
My old LW 4/600 died recently. It was connected to my G4 "Pixar" iMac, OS X 10.4.11, via an AsanteTalk bridge Ethernet adapter. Worked great for years.
I just bought a used HP LaserJet 4M Plus on eBay to replace it. I have connected everything just as it was with the LW 4/600, and...viola', I am getting the "jobs stopped" message. When I use the Printer Setup Utility, the HP is listed and even checked as the default printer, but it is grayed out, and I cannot get to it. I have deleted all the printers via the reset command, and reinstalled them. No matter what I have done, I remain stuck.
So, what can be done?
Thank you in advance!

Might try Printer Setup Repair 5.1...

Did you Repair Permissions & reboot after installing the Drivers?

How to stop message processing based on validation?

Hello experts,
I have a requirement to stop message processing in the graphical mapping based on validation results. Here is the scenario - messages are translated using graphical mapping and sent to the target system. An RFC lookup will be done to ECC to determine if the data in the message is good. If the lookup returns a negative result, message processing should be stopped right there.
I guess we can throw an exception from the mapping to force a failure and stop further processing, but that will cause the message to show up as failed on SXMB_MONI and cause alert emails to be sent out in PROD. Another option will be to supress creation of the root node itself, but I think the message will then fail in the subsequent "call adapter" step if the target schema has a min occurence of 1 for the root node (as in the case of IDocs).
Is it possible to do it without using BPM?
Thanks,
Michelle

Hi Michelle,
If your requirement, to stop message processing without sending an alert?
If yes, then you can have a alert rule, not to trigger alerts on a failure (And to raise an exception based on the result from RFC loookup).
If your requirement is not to make the message fail, then you have to go for the ccBPM route.

How do I stop Messages notifications when the app is closed?

Messages have an annoying tendancy to still "come through" even after I've quit the program, popping up in the right hand corner of my screen until I attend to them. How do I stop this from happening? There are many times in the day when I'd like to not receive messages from contacts/friends/families and just concentrate on work. I can turn my phone off, silence it, etc. to stop messages from coming through there, but on my computer, where I am working, turning off the device in question is not an option. With Messages on Mavericks, quitting the program doesn't seem to do the trick.

Alternative.
In Messages > Preferences > General Section.
Untick the "When I Quit, Set the Status to Off Line"
This will stop the IMAgent Support app "listening" to the servers for new messages.
It works best if there is a Buddy list account as well as iMessages (such AIM or Jabber).
