View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms

The following exception is thrown with ESB 2.2 on Microsoft BizTalk Server 2013 when the ItinerarySelectReceiveXML receive pipeline is used to call the Business Rules Engine to dynamically select an itinerary (using the ESB BRI Resolver).


Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

Cause

ESB Toolkit 2.2 uses Unity 2.0 which requires modifications to the esb.config file.

Resolution

You have to update the esb.config file to resolve this issue. To do this, save a backup copy of the original esb.config (default location is C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft BizTalk ESB Toolkit) before making any of the following changes. Note that esb.config file changes will require a recycle of the process that is using ESB.

Manually modify the existing esb.config file as follows:
  1. Remove the <typeConfig> element
  2. Change the <typeAlias> element to <alias>
  3. Change the <type> element to <register>
  4. Remove the <containers> elements
  5. Remove the <types> elements
  6. Remove the <typeAliases> elements
  7. Remove the parameterType attribute of the <param> elements.
  8. Remove the type attribute of the <value> element within <param name="overrideExistingItinerary">
All of the above changes take place within the <esb.resolver> section of the esb.config file. Below is the <esb.resolver> section with all of the above changes already implemented.
