When configuring the BAM portal on a x64 Environment you may receive the following error:

Start registering ASP.NET scriptmap (2.0.50727) at W3SVC/2/Root/BAM.
Error when validating the IIS path (W3SVC/2/Root/BAM). Error code = 0×80040154
The error indicates that IIS is in 64 bit mode, while this application is a 32 bit application and thus not compatible.
(Microsoft.BizTalk.Bam.CfgExtHelper.Utility)

To enable the 32-Bit version of ASP.NET run the following command

cscript %SYSTEMDRIVE%inetpubadminscriptsadsutil.vbs SET W3SVC/AppPools/Enable32bitAppOnWin64 1

OR

You can edit the application pool and change the “Enable 32-Bit Applications” flag to True on the Application Pools for BAM.

There is also a KB article on this.

Was another great weekend with the development community, got to meet allot of great people and Maddux had a great time.

Got to present Linq 4.0 and Silverlight LOB this time around and had a great turn out.  Infragistics helped with providing 3 NetAdvantage Licenses for give aways – thanks Infragistics and the winners.

I am now moving my discussions to Line of Business presentations, so that was the last time the Linq 4.0 presentation will be presented.

Again, thanks everyone for coming and thanks to the coordinators.

Unfortunately you are not able to run both side by side; so I would suggest you run 2009 in a VM and test your 2010 project in that if you need downward compatibility.

Remember, BizTalk 2010 is the only version of BizTalk compatible with R2 version of the Microsoft Server 2008 and SQL 2008.  Setup is still roughly the same.
