RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, modify the sample so that it works in a secured Web server environment. To allow the sample to function without reducing security on the existing Web server, follow these steps before you run Lesson 7 of the Learning BizTalk Server tutorial:

  4. Click Look in, and select your computer or domain.
  5. In the Type names separated by semicolons or choose from list box, type your user name in the domain name\user name format. Type the password for this account, and then click Check Names.
  6. When your user name resolves, click OK. Notice that your user account is added to the list of group names or user names.
  7. Under Permissions, select the Allow check box for both Read and Write, and clear any other permissions.
  8. Click Apply, and then click OK to close the Output Properties dialog box.
To resolve this problem, you must also modify the advanced properties for the "Channel to Contoso" and the "Channel to Northwind Invoice" channels.
  1. Open BizTalk Messaging Manager.
  2. In BizTalk Messaging Manager, in the Channel Name list, click Channel to Contoso.
  3. On the File menu, click Edit.
