How do you configure a WCF-SQL adapter to write data from a SQL2012 "always on" database?

Hi All,
I have a BizTalk environment. I have to write the data from BizTalk to the database which is configured using ALWAYS ON availability group.
I use WCF-SQL adapter to write the data. My question is this setup a supported?

The answer is NO.
Refer: Can
I use a BizTalk WCF-SQL send adapter with a SQL 2012 Always on Database?
A snippet quoted below.
In summary (in order of preference):
Disable AlwaysOn Availability Groups / Mirroring on SQL server if you need to connect to this SQL server which has this enabled
Disable transactions and implement logic to be able to handle duplicates .
Disable transactions and handle the duplicates or lost messages with custom logic (e.g. Send twice and compare and implement error handling). You need to write your own DTC handling this which
is probably very complicated.
Disable transactions and live with risk of duplicates or lost messages without handling duplicates.
Refer: SQL Server AlwaysOn feature does not support MSDTC transactions.

1) Do you have the same Credentials settings for all 3 Receive Locations (Found under Configure | Other | Credentials on you WCF-SQL Adapter)
2) Are all 3 Receive Locations Locations polling from the same SQL Server? If not are they then on the same domain? If the server that is failing is not on the same domain as your BizTalk Host User, then you might need to supply credentials and use a local
SQL User.

Polling using WCF SQL Adapter

Hi - I have to develop this in BizTalk
There is a table in SQL database where BizTalk needs to poll the data using WCF SQL Adapter.
How and what query/stored proc do I need to write ?
and how about polling interval should I mention.
Is there any detailed blog or link which clearly explains this, will be helpful
MBH

The first thing that you should remember is that the most effective way of getting data from SQL would be if you could remove the records after reading them. This was something that the native SQL Server adapter supported. For WCF-SQL, the way to achieve
this is to
Create a SP which is what you will specify as the execute statement for your adapter. This SP would, on the basis of TOP 1, get the ID, read the record and delete it. Then it would return the read data. You will generate schemas for this SP and deploy them
for subscribing to the received messages.
You will create a query that returns the count of records from the said table which you will use as the polling query. This will ensure that the adapter uses this on the configured interval to see if data exists. If it exists, it would use the execute statement
(invoking your SP) to get the data.
There is an option to keep executing the SP while data is available. This ensures that if more than ONE record is inserted into your table, all the records would be picked up after the first polling interval (as opposed to poll, pick-up one, poll and then
pick up the other, etc.). Be careful while setting the polling interval (you cannot go beyond 1 sec) since this depends on your SQL servers ability to process the data.
With regards to documentation, I'd refer you to
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd788532.aspx - Polling SQL Server by using the WCF-SQL Adapter.

WCF-SQL Adapter Hangs in Active State for hours

I'm at a new client, and doing a simple test with a content-based-routing solution picks up a file, maps it, and is supposed to update a SQL database. The WCF-SQL send port is stuck in the "active" state. No messages in EventLog. If there's
an issue, I don't know why it doesn't just suspend.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Neal Walters

Hi Neal,
Few things to check IMO,
Check if the host instance is running properly
Check the version of the Host instance, If required make the host instance to 32 bit.
If it is using any schemas then make sure the binaries are deployed and gace'ed
Try to restart the BizTalk host instance to see if it makes a difference
Check if your SQL Database Instance is UP and running , Make sure the BizTalk service Account has proper rights on the SQL server and has execute permission on the SQL Stored procedure (if using one)
Check if you have anything on the SQL server event viewer.
Try to complete you routing of file using a send port also which will copy the input message to a temp folder location , Try Using Failed Message Routing to see
if it helps!
There is an article
Configuring a Port Using the WCF-SQL Adapter for further reference.

WCF-SQL Adapter Set up

Hi,
I am using Microsoft Biztalk 2010 on Windows Server 2007(SP2). I am want to use WCF-SQL adapter but I am not able to see any adapter when I tried to create new adapter at "Platform Setting -> Adapter -> New Adapter dropdown.".
Windows Communication Foundation LOB Adapter SDK, Microsoft Biztalk Adapter Pack, Microsoft Biztalk Adapter Pack(x64) are installed on my machine.
Am I missing something? how to get the WCF-SQL in the list of adapter.
Thanks, Girish R. Patil.

Hi Girish,
Another area to check is machine.config file for binding entries.
check following for hint : http://tech-findings.blogspot.in/2013/06/no-valid-adapters-installed-on-machine.html

Polling records from mulitiple table(61 Tables) using WCF-SQL adapter

Hi,
I would like get some suggestion from this forum. I've a scenario, in which I need to poll the records from multiple table(61) which are related and may have one to many relationship. what's the best way to poll the records from SQL table to BizTalk.
Thanks in advance..
Regards,
Karthick

Karthick,
Write a SQL stored procedure with joins from your 61 tables (!!!) . Use WCF-SQL adapter to invoke the procedures.
Following references shall help you:
Executing Stored Procedures in SQL Server by Using BizTalk Server
Performing Composite Operations on SQL Server by Using BizTalk Server
Bing-Results: biztalk wcf sql
adapter polling stored procedure
I don’t know your exact requirement. Consider using SQL-SSIS for ETL process depending on your requirements. Anyway if your requirement really needs BizTalk, above suggest
should solve your problem.

Adding wcf-sql adapter

Please suggest how to add the wcf-sql adapter to biztalk application.

you first need to configure handler for wcf-sql adapter.
open admin console, goto platform settings, expand adapters, and select wcf-sql adapter. and right click on it, and then create receive/send handlers for it.
if you don't see wcf-sql adapter in adapter section, it means that you did not install wcf-sql adapter components.

Notice update or delete in Database via WCF SQL Adapter

Hi Folks,
i try to notice any changes in a database table via SQL Adapter: so i check for a special column wich contains '0' for new datasets and '1' for those i already copied via BizTalk.
This works fine as long as you only insert datasets, update or delete is not recocnized...
Whats the best or possible way to react on these actions too?
Thanks for your Ideas!

Hi,
I am shure there are many different approaches so here is what I have in mind:
In case you need to react to deleted rows in your original table you need a sub table to trigger your biztalk for datasets that do not exist any longer.
In this table you need 2 colums:
first one to correlate to your original data row (id),
second one to hold the status: For ex. 0= new, 1=update, 3=deleted
Then you need a
Trigger event on your original table that sets the status for the modified data id in your new table.
You can then poll on this sub table as you already mentioned in your question.

How Biztalk Engine come to know through WCF-Sql Adapter that new record was added in Sql Table?

Regards Ravin

WCF-SQL adapter for receiving polls the the DB to fetch records. Its not by intelligence that the adapter will know that a new record is added.
Your db and table design and the poll querry has to be intelligent enough to pull in new records from the table and not the already processes or polled records.
Something like a poll flag for processed records.

WCF-SQL adapter issue

Hi all,
I have ne issue with adapter when i am polling data from sqldb the dataset is creating in biztalk how can i add the elements in that,i am using this first time.
Regards,
Raman

What do you mean "add the elements"?
If you add a column to the SQL ResultSet, just add the corresponding Element to the Schema in the Schema Designer.
If the ResultSet changes significantly, you can just re-run the Wizard.
There is nothing special or remotely complicated about this.

WCF-SQL Adapter and idle SQL Server sessions

Hi,
I have a BizTalk 2013 server with a send port that periodically send SQL statements to a remote SQL Server. The remote SQL Server hosts the database of a Dynamics NAV server.
The DBA of this SQL Server warned me that a lot of SQL Server sessions remain idle after a long period of time (about 20 idle sessions coming from my BizTalk server with a Idle time that is more than 10 days). He thinks that we have a trouble in BizTalk to
close the connections to the SQL Server.
I wondered if I can handle the situation by changing some settings in the sqlBinding used by my send port, for example the MaxPoolSize or other parameters.
Any idea?
Thanks.

So, is this causing an actual problem or is this something the DBA just happened to see?
20 idle sessions isn't a lot at all and is well below the default Connection Pool size, 100 in most cases.
So long as it does not keep increasing unchecked, I'd say what you're seeing is the expected and desired behavior.
You maybe have had a burst at some point causing 20 connections, then normal continuous operations only uses 1 or 2.

BT2010 Installed Cum Update Packs for Adapters and getting run-time errors with WCF-SQL

The process has been working fine for months. Then we installed Cum Update packs to BT2010 (I'll get the exact C.U.'s from our admin guy) and last night got probably 20 errors similar to below.
   - Installed CU6 for BT2010
   - Installed CU3 for LOB (Adapters)
The SQL stored proc returns a mix of strings, integers, Guids, and dates; the BizTalk schema looks like matches perfectly. The stored proc runs fine in SSMS.
Got two errors for each, 1 in XLANG/s for the orchestration, and 1 for the Send port that calls the WCF-SQL adapter from the orchestration, and also 1 warning.
NOTE: This orchestration runs every 15 minutes 24x7. It calls the Stored Proc to find out which extracts it needs to create. Most all the extracts run at night. So if I run the stored proc during the day, it normally returns an empty result
set. Yet, the error below is happening every 15 minutes, even when the result set is empty. How can it generate a data conversion error when there is no data to be converted?

How to throw or catch sql exception for executeReader sql adapter

Wcf sql adapter was created and executeReader was used.
When an invalid sql statement was constructed and send it to wcf sql adapter, it will hanging there, and no response. No exception was catched even though send chape  was inside a catch block. How can I catch this kind of exception
or throw this exception ? I need to give client an exception resposne.
thanks
Gary

I used scope with exception handle which has Exception object type: "System.SystemException".
I guess this type "System.SystemException" can catch any exception, including sql exception. Maybe I am wrong. I got error from window event:
A message sent to adapter "WCF-Custom" on send port "WcfSendPort_SqlAdapterBinding_DalCore_Custom" with URI "mssql://shig-quad-2k3e1//DataSourceOne?" is suspended.
