Install the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility

To install the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility on Windows Server 2008, follow these steps:

  1. Download the Tracelog.exe file, and install the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) Update for Windows Vista.

    Note

    The Tracelog.exe file is not included with the Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5. So, install the Windows Vista SDK on Windows Server 2008.

    For more information, see Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5 Release Notes.

  2. When the Installation Options window appears, expand Developer Tools and expand Windows Development Tools. Then select the Win32 Development Tools check box.

  3. Clear the other check boxes, and then continue the installation.

  4. Find the following folder, and then copy the Tracelog.exe file to the BizTalk Server installation folder:
    Drive:\MicrosoftSDKInstallationFolder\Bin.

By default, the Tracelog.exe file is in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0\Bin folder. The BizTalk Server installation folder also contains the Trace.cmd file.

To install the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility on Windows Server 2003, follow these steps:

  1. Download the Tracelog.exe file, and install the Windows Server 2003 R2 Platform SDK.

  2. When the Select An Installation Type window appears, select Custom.

  3. In the Custom Installation dialog box, expand Microsoft Windows Core SDK, and then expand Tools.

  4. Select Tools (Intel 64-bit), and then select Will be installed on local hard drive.

  5. Select Will not be available on everything else, and then continue the installation.

  6. Locate the Drive:\MicrosoftPlatformSDKInstallationFolder\Bin folder, and then copy the Tracelog.exe file to the BizTalk Server installation folder.

    By default, the Tracelog.exe file is in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\bin folder. The BizTalk Server installation folder also contains the Trace.cmd file.

Enable the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility

To enable the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility, follow these steps:

  1. At a command prompt, change the current directory to the directory where BizTalk Server is installed. By default, BizTalk Server is installed in the Program Files\Microsoft BizTalk Server 200x directory.

  2. Enter the following command:

    trace -tools "Path of the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility"

By default on Windows Server 2003, the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility is in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\Bin.

By default on Windows Server 2008, the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility is in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0\Bin.

You must enclose the path of the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility in quotation marks.

For example, enter the following command on Windows Server 2003:

trace -tools "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\Bin"

On Windows Server 2008, enter the following command:

trace -tools "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0\Bin"

The -tools switch indicates to the location of the Tracelog.exe file to the Trace.cmd file.

Run the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility

To run the BizTalk Adapter Trace Utility on a scenario, follow these steps:

  1. At a command prompt, enter the following command:

    trace -start -all

  2. Reproduce the scenario that you want to trace.

  3. At a command prompt, enter the following command:

    trace -stop

After you stop the trace, a binary file for BizTalk Server 2006 and later versions that's named BtsTrace.bin is generated in the folder where BizTalk Server is installed. In BizTalk Server 2004, a binary file that's named Bts2004.bin is generated in the folder where BizTalk Server is installed.

You can send the BizTalk Server trace .bin file to Microsoft Customer Support Services for analysis.
