Hi

What is the input message? Are you giving xml as input. Can you please try removing <xml> tag in the input xml file?

 

Thanks

Answer 5

Can you share custom pipeline code. I believe somewhere inside pipeline component that message is lost. May be you are reading the memory stream and not rewinding it back and thus getting empty message at Assemble stage.

sure thanks for ur reply i have solved it

but the next day of solving it i am struck with another error

that error i got when i build the pipeline once again and copied and pasted in c:program files/Biztal server 2009/pipelinecomponents i.e i replaced with it

so i got the below error when i build the Biztalk project

Error     Unable to copy file "..\..\Program Files\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2009\Pipeline Components\AvantePricelistsPipeline.dll" to "bin\Debug\AvantePricelistsPipeline.dll". The process cannot access the file 'bin\Debug\AvantePricelistsPipeline.dll' because it is being used by another process.

 

i am not able to know which process it is using

i restarted the Biztalk system and reopened the visual studio and tried many ways  but i am getting the same error when i build the Biztalk project which is using that pipeline 

 

what might be the reason  can anyone tell me to solve it

waiting for reply

Hi Madhsudhan,

To resolve this error, you can try 2 approach:
    1) Rebuild your project and then stop BizTalk instances and shutdown Visual Studio. Then copy the DLL to the folder

If this didn’t work,
    2) Rename the old DLL to name_old.dll and copy the new DLL to the folder

In the end of point 1 and 2 start BizTalk instances

why you copy the file from pipeline components folder to your project folder? I can understand you do that in another direction. Anyway, you do not have to copy it to the pipeline component folder anyway, just gac it in your post build eventshould do the work
