The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft BizTalk Server 2000

-

SUMMARY
BizTalk Server Service Pack (SP) 2 includes the following two uninstall packages because the Microsoft Installer (MSI) enforces the rule that you can only remove patches in the order in which you applied them:


 * BTS2000_SP2_RevertToRTM_EN.exe
 * BTS2000_SP2_RevertToSP1a_EN.exe

For example, you cannot uninstall BizTalk Server SP2 back to BizTalk Server 2000 if the upgrade path was from BizTalk Server 2000 to BizTalk Server SP1a to BizTalk Server SP2.

MORE INFORMATION
The following two uninstall files are included:


 * BTS2000_SP2_RevertToRTM_EN.exe

This file uninstalls SP2 and reverts your installed files to the BizTalk Server 2000 files. Any modifications that you made previously to these files are not restored.
 * BTS2000_SP2_RevertToSP1a_EN.exe

This file uninstalls SP2 and revert your installed files to the BizTalk Server 2000 SP1a files. Any modifications that you made previously to these files are not restored.

To uninstall SP2 from multiple BizTalk Servers in a group:
 * 1) Stop all BizTalk Server-related services on all BizTalk Server computers.
 * 2) Use Microsoft SQL Server Query Analyzer to apply the UndoCleanQueuesPatch.sql file to the Shared Queue database before you restart the BizTalk Server-related services.
 * 3) In the UndoCleanQueuesPatch.sql file, enter a GO batch separator between &quot;if exists...&quot; and &quot;CREATE PROCEDURE...&quot; so that the UndoCleanQueuesPatch.sql file can execute successfully.

If you have upgraded to Microsoft XML (MSXML) 3.0 SP2, and then you uninstall BizTalk Server 2000 SP2, MSXML reverts back to MSXML 3.0. To resolve this issue, reinstall MSXML 3.0 SP2, which is available on the MSDN Web site: "http://msdn.microsoft.com/xml" Additional query words:
