I have been reading the previous posts regarding the AS400 and Biztalk. i would be interested in more detail on how to set up a receive or send location on an AS400 or is the only way to get around this problem by either using MQSeries or by FTP'ing from
the AS400 to the Biztalk Server.

The solution i am working on also involves routing flat files to and from a LINUX server using Biztalk. Has anyone any experience in setting up send and receive locations on a LINUX server.

Thanks.

You might look into HIS2004 to do this as well.

Best regards,

Within the Biztalk Server set up is there no other option that i can use to pick up and send files from/to an AS400.
i had been reading about FTP Recieve Handlers but i am not clear exactly how these can be used to move files from the AS400.

Is there no other way of using the Biztalk Server product to use a folder on the AS400 as a receive or send location. i was looking at the FTP Receive Handler which was suggested in the 'Configuring an FTP Adapter to Work With Legacy Hosts' when i did a
search for as400. is this a way ? i tried this and got an error message
'Could not store transport type data for Receive Location' to config store. Invalid attempt when no data is present'

BizTalk Server 2004 comes with a bunch of out of the box transports. For AS/400, you can think of using MQ Series adapter
(currently in beta), or FTP Adapter.

For LINUX, you can use FTP, HTTP or SOAP transport (web services) to communicate, but not direct access to file system.

you can look for 3rd party adapter solutions if you need a LINUX or AS/400 file system adapter.

thanks.

I am trying to set up FTP Receive Location that will be a location on the AS400. i am receiving an error whenever i attempt to click OK on the Receive Location Properties.

The error is 'Could not store transport type data for 'AS400 Receive Location' to config store. Invalid attempt to read when no data is present.'

i am not sure exactly what data it is referring to.

i also deployed a project which included a Receive Pipeline that i cannot seein the drop down list. i only see the default Biztalk XMLReceive and PassThruReceive.

if i plan to send flat files to and from the AS400 what shiould i be using as a pipeline.

thanks.

Hi

i can not help you with the FTP-thing.

If you cannot see a pipeline in the dropdown, there are a few options:

1. Have you deployed the assembly with the pipeline to GAC?
2. Does it have a strong name key?
3. Have you referenced the assembly with the pipeline from within your
project where it isn't in the dropdown?

You might also want to look at third party adapters, I've been working in
the past with Attunity (www.Attunity.com) that worked quite well. I'm pretty
sure iWay will have a solution as well.
