Hi to all,
Am having problems with the Siebel adapter in BTS 2006. Downloaded and
installed official release of BTS2006 and adapters from MSDN Universal
subscription.

Configured Siebel adapter to connect to Siebel system, and can vierw Siebel
Business Objects and Services OK. Have a Siebel repository with customized
BOs, and am trying to import the WSDL for the customized
Opportunity\Opportunity Business Object\Business Component.

Import fails with the following message:
Error reading WSDL File.
[System.InvalidOperationException]There is an error in XML document
(2834,78).
[System.Xml.XmlException] An error occurred while parsing EntityName.
Line 2834, position 78.

Now importing from a vanilla, non-cusomized repository does not generate
this error, and works fine, so I am assuming it is the customization on the
Siebel end causing the problem. Is there any way I can see what it was
trying to import?

I know that these adapters were licenses from iWay. Using the iWay version
of the Siebel adapter with the same BO\BC produces no problems, and works
correctly.

Thanks,
Zig.

Thanks. We have customized many Siebel BOs, which work sucessfully in the
Siebel environment. and will look forward to what you can find out here.

Hi Zig,

The exception would occur when there are speical characters in entity name
in the XML. I think you'd open that WSDL and check the error line to verify
this.

Thanks.

Hi WenJun,
Where can I find the WSDL file? This is wizard-driven, and when I
complete the Add Generated Items (Add Adapter MeteData) wizard I get this
error - there is no file per se. Also, why can BizTalk import the WSDL
created by the iWay Siebel adapter and ot this one, after all they are
creating WSDL for the same BO\BC?

I will attempt to see if there is a temporary file created somewhere, and
also engage our MS TAM so she can open up a case.
Thanks,
Zig.

Zig,

Yes, I think the issue is the best to be handled in a CSS case.

ZiggyB,
We're using Siebel 7.7 as well.  How did you go about configuring the Siebel
adapter?  I'm finding very little documentation on the steps to connect
BTS2006 with Siebel.  All the Siebel docs are based on BTS2004.
