SYMPTOMS

When you store documents that have double-byte character set (DBCS) characters in the file name to a WebDAV repository from the BizTalk Mapper or the BizTalk Editor, the actual file name that is stored in WebDAV may contain garbage characters.

CAUSE

This problem may occur if there are incorrect settings that relate to WebDAV and DBCS characters in Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS).

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, make the following modifications to the registry of the IIS server that houses the WebDAV repository:

WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

  1. Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
  2. Locate and click the following key in the registry:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\InetInfo\Parameters\FavorDBCS

  3. On the Edit menu, click Modify, type 0, and then click OK.
  4. Quit Registry Editor.

After you make this change, restart IIS.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft BizTalk Server 2002.
