BTSTask gives me an error when exporting or importing bindings

BTSTask can sometimes throw an error relating to .NET versions when you attempt to export or import bindings for ActiveADAPTER send ports and receive locations. Try the following:

In your BTSTask.exe.config file (located in your Program Files BizTalk folder), add the following just under <configuration> tag:

<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
 <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" />
 </startup>

Is the ability to create Solicit-Response ports that query Active Directory on demand part of the Receive Adapter or the Send Adapter?

Both. The query is sent out by the send adapter. The actual querying is done by components of the receive adapter. Therefore, to be licensed to create Solicit-Response send ports, you need to be licensed for both the ActiveADAPTER send and receive adapters.

Will the ActiveADAPTER Send Adapter return error information back to my orchestration?

Yes. The adapter will return any exceptions back to your application AFTER any retries you have configured have been done.

Within your orchestration you can use Scope shapes to catch exceptions. In your exception handlers you can retrieve the error description to determine which way to branch.

Sample orchestrations that illustrate exception handing are included in the ActiveADAPTER Samples folder.
