1.  My first question is:  Do the instructions in the latest doc refresh
actually work for how to set up an HTTP/Receive adapter?  I followed the
instructions today with 4 people watching me; and still getting error:

500 Internal Server Error

2.  Application Log shows two errors and one warning:

3.  I have tried both a one way and two-way port, and yes it is enabled.

4.  We also noted that we were get an IWAM_mycomputername security error
because creating the virtual directory with medium/high security also create
s
a COM-Plus application called IIS-{Default Web Site//Root/Mysite} and t
his
site had a default user of IWAM_mycomputername. We changed this.

4B) for our security, we created a userid called BiztalkHttpReceive and
added it to groups: administrator, Biztalk Server Adminstrator, Biztalk
Isolated Host.  We set IIS and COM+ to all run under this userid.

5.  To test the whole procedure we are running the following VB/Script -
could our bug be here?


set xmlHttp = CreateObject("MSXML2.xmlHttp")
set doc = CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument")

' Validate the document using the MSXML parser.
doc.load (" c:\diamond\samples\Small_EasyPOInstance1
.xml")

If doc.parseError.errorCode Then
' Do something with the error.
Wscript.Echo "Parse Error"
else
WScript.Echo doc.xml
End If

' Post the template.
'on error resume next
xmlHttp.Open "POST", "http://localhost/Diamond/BTSHTTPReceive.dll", False
xmlHttp.setRequestHeader "Content-type", "application/xml"
xmlHttp.send doc.xml

' Retrieve the results.
WScript.Echo " ResponseText=" & xmlHttp.responseText & _
" Status=" & xmlHttp.status & _
" text=" & xmlHttp.statusText




Thanks a million,

I believe you are missing the query string at the end of the URL (like
"http://localhost/Diamond/BTSHTTPReceive.dll?myReceiveLocation") this is
mandatory so you can use multiple receive locations on the same virtual
directory. You need to modify your receive location and the sending program
to include an identical query string.

Cheers

P.S.

I always use the WFetch (GUI) or TinyGet (Command Line) utility to test my
BizTalk Applications. They are both part of the IIS 6 resource kit.

I had a similar problem earlier this week with this adapter.  I used
Filemon to track down the issue.  In my case I had to give the account
running the host instance for my Http Adapter Read & Execute and Read
rights on the system32\mfc42.dll !!

I'd run Filemon when you send the request in and then look for DENIED
entries related to your host instance account.

One more thing, I think the content type should be text\xml.

FINALLY working.

1) FileMon - very cool utility - but it returned no security errors.

2) Should I be using a one way or two way Receive Port?  Does it matter?

3) My only problem is I'm not 100% sure what I fixed.  I think it was the
following:


I have a one-way port configured as follows:
/Diamond/BTSHTTPReceive.dll?diamondpo1

I think before I had entered the following here:
/locahost/Diamond/BTSHTTPReceive.dll?diamondpo1



I changed my VB/Script (that posts the test xml message) as follows:

xmlHttp.Open "POST",
"http://localhost/Diamond/BTSHTTPReceive.dll?diamondpo1", false

This is one of those cases that there are way too many permutations and not
enough feedback other than 500 server error.

4) BIG QUESTION - Why NOT put the localhost in the URL?  Couldn't you point
the HTTP Receive Location to another server other than the one you are on?

Thanks again,
