PRB: DBCS Data That You Submit to a Channel by Using the HTTP Receive Function Sample Becomes Corrupted (815072)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft BizTalk Server 2002
SYMPTOMSWhen you post double byte character set (DBCS) data to an HTTP
Receive function from the Microsoft BizTalk Server Software Development Kit (SDK) sample processPo.asp page, the data becomes corrupted if
the HTTP Receive function is configured to submit to a BizTalk channel.
The
HTTP Receive function SDK sample is located in the \Program Files\Microsoft
BizTalk Server\SDK\Messaging Samples\HTTP Receive Function folder on your computer running
BizTalk Server.CAUSEIf you post data that contains embedded DBCS characters to
an HTTP Receive function URL, and the HTTP Receive function is configured to
submit to a channel, you must use the UTF-8 code page to explicitly encode the query string for the post. HTTP Receive functions default to a USASCII code
page. The processPo.asp page that is included in the HTTP Receive function
SDK sample uses the following code to post data to the HTTP Receive function: set xmlHttp = server.CreateObject ("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
call xmlHttp.open("POST","http://localhost/PurchaseSite/biztalkhttpreceive.dll?po",False)
xmlHttp.send (objXMLdoc.xml)
This code works correctly with USASCII data. However, this code causes DBCS data to be
corrupted if the HTTP Receive function is configured to submit the posted data
to a BizTalk channel. RESOLUTIONModify the code in the processPo.asp to use the
setRequestHeader method of the XMLHTTP object to change the Content-Type
header to use the UTF-8 codepage: set xmlHttp = server.CreateObject ("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
call xmlHttp.open("POST","http://localhost/PurchaseSite/biztalkhttpreceive.dll?po",False)
xmlHttp.setRequestHeader "content-type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8"
xmlHttp.send (objXMLdoc.xml)STATUS This
behavior is by design.
