I am getting an error “The Server not operational”

This error most commonly occurs when the server used in direct server binding cannot be contacted. It can be caused by:

  • An incorrect server name in WhereToBind (e.g LDAP://incorrect-server-name.test.com/OU=Test,DC=test,DC=com)
  • Insufficient permissions to connect to the server (try using different credentials for the host instance that handles ActiveADAPTER)
FAQs
Which properties of Active Directory objects can ActiveADAPTER modify?

Virtually all properties. ActiveADAPTER can update, add to, or clear all properties that are compatible with string, number and byte array data types. A number of special properties are also integrated - objectGUID and objectSid, for example. This covers virtually all the properties you can see using Active Directory Users and Computers.

If there are specific properties you wish to use that you are having trouble with, let us know!

What will ActiveADAPTER add to what I see in BizTalk Server?

After installing ActiveADAPTER you will see a new transport type option when configuring a send port or receive location. With BizTalk send ports, you can create, delete, rename, move, and modify Active Directory objects. With BizTalk receive locations, you can draw XML messages into BizTalk containing Active Directory query results.

On your Programs menu you will also have an ActiveADAPTER program group containing shortcuts to documentation, sample orchestrations and schemas to get you developing your solutions quickly.
