BizTalk deployment errors

Question

I got the following errors when I deployed my BizTalk project.

Error 1 Failed to update binding information. Could not change the bindings for orchestration 'BizTalk_Server_test.BizTalk_Orchestration1,BizTalk Server test, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=56064b11c189a7aa' as one or more instances of the orchestration still exist.

Error 2 Failed to add resource(s). Change requests failed for some resources. BizTalkAssemblyResourceManager failed to complete end type change request. Failed to update binding information. Could not change the bindings for orchestration 'BizTalk_Server_test.BizTalk_Orchestration1,BizTalk Server test, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=56064b11c189a7aa' as one or more instances of the orchestration still exist.

I tried to re-build the orchestration and restart the server, I still got these errors. Can anyone help?

Answer 1

There's no need to perform a Full Stop of the application, as this can cause you to lose binding information if you have customised your bindings without re-exporting them.

As the error message says, you need to terminate all Service and/or Messaging instances relating to the application.

Go to your BizTalk Group page in BizTalk Administrator, click the "Suspended Instances" link, then right-click and select "Teminate instances" from the pop-up menu.

You should now be able to redeploy your BizTalk project. Don't forget to restart any associated Host Instances, or you wont see your changes at runtime.
