Symptoms
When you use Microsoft BizTalk Server to receive a compressed Applicability Statement 2 (AS2) message, an error message that resembles the following might be logged in the Application log:
Event Type: Error
Event Source: BizTalk Server 2009 EDI
Event Category: None
Event ID: 8133
Description:
The AS2 Decoder encountered an exception during processing. Details of the message and exception are as follows: AS2-From:"<AS2-From party>" AS2-To:"<AS2-To party>" MessageID:"<Message ID>" MessageType: "unknown" Exception:"Decompression failed while processing a compressed AS2 message. Error: Invalid Adler32 checksum encountered."
Note The event source value may vary depending on what version of BizTalk Server you use.
Cause
This issue occurs because the Adler32 checksum value is stored separately in two chunks when you receive a compressed AS2 message. Therefore, BizTalk Server does not read the value correctly.
