Due to Microsoft .NET Framework Security Updates, some BizTalk Server installations may be affected. Access denied or Class not registered errors.

BizTalk engine will still process messages, including sending and receiving them.

The symptoms:

• You can’t see, stop or start host instances
• You can’t refresh applications
• Gives access denied or Class not registered errors while trying to load some panels inside BizTalk Server Administration Console
• Random errors in BizTalk Server Administration Console while browsing
• Other weird issues while deploying applications via Deployment Framework for BizTalk (BTDF)

.NET Framework (4.6.2) has received some security updates on 20th July 2018. These updates refresh some assemblies that are in use by BizTalk Server! Microsoft states that a fix is coming mid July 2018, but, at this moment, I’m not seeing these “fixes” in my machine…

The actual fix;

You need to uninstall ALL your .NET Framework updates for version 4.6.2 that were installed after 19th of July 2018! Follow these simple steps to uninstall them (if you don’t know how to do it):

1. Open Control Panel
2. Select Program and Features
3. On the left pane, select “View installed updates”
4. Uninstall every update that targets .NET Framework 4.6.X that were installed AFTER 19th July 2018

IMPORTANT NOTE: Uninstalling some of them may require a reboot. DO NOT REBOOT UNTILL ALL UPDATES ARE UNINSTALLED!

Below are some updates that were identified by users as source of their problems:

• BizTalk Server 2013 R2: KB4338600, KB4338601
• BizTalk Server 2010: KB4338602
• Other versions: KB4338600, KB4338605, KB4338613, KB4338814, KB4338424, KB4338419

The one that was causing my BizTalk Server Administration Console to fail was KB4338606. As you can see, this update isn’t listed above. Those updates were identified by other users, they may not, by any means, be the origin of your problems. This is why I prefer to uninstall them all! Remember, your mileage my vary.

The post [FIX] BizTalk Server 2010, 2013, 2013 R2 & 2016 errors “Class not registered (WinMgmt)” or “Access denied” appeared first on Blog IT.

Pic1. Exception: “Could not enlist Send Port – HRESULT: 0xC00CE557”

So, after some debugging, me and my teammate noticed an issue with some port filters inside a WCF Custom Send Port in the bindings XML, originally exported by BizTalk. Time to check the XML now!

Here’s how you can trace errors in XML:

• Open exported ports binding XML file:

Pic2. Origin of the exception selected

Notice this property, “Filter”. It has break lines and white spaces. BizTalk refuses to import bindings like this, and generates an exception. Worst part is that this exception is generic, and meaningless.

To fix this, you must remove all white spaces and all break lines inside this field. This problem appears because these filters have an “AND” relationship between them, and BizTalk can’t understand those mathematical relationships with all these white spaces and break lines among them.

The final and fixed XML property should look like this:

<SomePropertyName>all lines here without spaces or break lines</SomePropertyName>

If you run into some exceptions importing port bindings, you should analyze the bindings file and look for a XML property with spaces and break lines. Re-arrange and you should be OK importing bindings and enlisting ports now!

I’ve been reading all the stuff being written and it’s clear: the Microservices architecture has brought a big wave of surprise and enthusiasm around the BizTalk community! I leave you with some links and quotes I found relevant about the topic.
