You create a static one-way receive port (EDIReceive) and a static one-way send port (EDISend) in a Microsoft BizTalk Server 2010 application.

-
You export an .msiĀ file and a binding file for the BizTalk Server 2010 application from BizTalk Server Administration Console, and then you import them into BizTalk Server 2013.
In this scenario, you receive the following error message:
Failed to update binding information. (mscorlib)
