Frequently Asked Questions about the SDK

Follow the steps above to install the required pieces.
During installation of the SDK, I get a "Network error occurred while reading the
file...." What gives?
You've previously installed an older version of the BizTalk Services SDK. Uninstall
the old SDK and then try again to install the current version of the SDK.
When using the relay binding with a service, why do I get this exception from
the ServiceHost constructor: "Could not find a base address that matches scheme
net.relay for the endpoint with binding RelayBinding. Registered base address
schemes are [sb]."
You've previously installed an older version of the BizTalk Services SDK. Check
in \Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\ machine.config under
<system.serviceModel> for any entries with net.relay. This tag will likely be
towards the bottom of the file. If net.relay is present, then an older SDK is
installed. Backup your machine.config, uninstall the SDK, remove the
<system.serviceModel> section from machine.config, download and install the
current SDK from labs.biztalk.net.
