MORE INFORMATION
To enable this hotfix, follow these steps.

Note You must only enable this hotfix if the publishing port is a one-way port. You must not enable this hotfix if the publishing port is a request-response port.  Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:

Note In this registry subkey,  is the name of the BizTalk Server host that publishes messages that are routed to multiple request response subscribers. On the Edit menu, click New, and then click DWORD Value. Type AllowMultipleResponses, and then press ENTER. Right-click AllowMultipleResponses, and then click Modify. In the Value box, type 1, and then click OK.</li> On the File menu, click Exit.</li></ol>

After you install this hotfix, you can use multiple solicit-response ports to receive a response for a subscription that matches a publication.

By default, you cannot route a message to multiple solicit-response ports because the publishing port cannot process multiple response messages. After you install the hotfix that is described in this article, the publishing solicit-response port still cannot process multiple response messages.

Routing multiple response messages to the publishing solicit-response port may cause suspended service instances because of messages that are not consumed. However, you can enable this hotfix if the response message from the solicit-response port is routed to another component. For example, you can enable this hotfix if a response message is routed to an orchestration or to a send port.
