SYMPTOMS
When you try to deploy an Orchestration that was created in Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004, you receive an error message that is similar to the following:

[Microsoft.BizTalk.Deployment.DeploymentException] Unable to deploy early bindings.

[Microsoft.BizTalk.Deployment.Binding.BindingException] Failed updating binding information.

BindingException: Specified cast is not valid.

[System.InvalidCastException] Specified cast is not valid.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because BizTalk Server 2004 requires that the COM+ Rollup QXP6 for Microsoft Windows XP or the COM+ Rollup 29 for Microsoft Windows 2000 be installed, depending on your operating system.



RESOLUTION
To avoid this behavior, install the COM+ Rollup package for your operating system and language.

The following tables list the COM+ Rollup packages that are available in the Microsoft Download Center. Click the link to download the package for your operating system and language.

COM+ Rollup 29 for Windows 2000


STATUS
This behavior is by design.
