Whether logic apps will be available for in-premises

Setting environment variable in the .Net Core API in Kubernetes

Setting up and Managing environment variables is a crtical task as part of the deployment of your solution in different environment. One of the ways to apply
environment variables while deploying the PODS in the Kubernetes cluster.

.Net Core 2.0 Provides the following option in setting up the environment variables.
launchSettings.json  - Manages environment variable, which used to launch the application
appsettings.json  - Manages variable for the apps like database connection string, variables setting for APP etc

Also we can inject multiple JSON file for app settings.

This is one of the technique to deploy pods with the environment variables. Include the variable and right value before deploying the image using k8s yml file

Problem with WCF-Custom adapter (WS HTTP Binding with reliable messaaging) - Error event logged, even though transaction completed Sucessfully

When BizTalk Server sends request to WCF Service, The system is able to service the request and complete the transaction successfully.  But after the successful completion of the transaction, the following two events are logged in the BizTalk server. The orchestration, which initiates the service request also getting completed successfully.

Log Name:      Application
Source:        BizTalk Server
Date:          18/11/2013 10:43:11 p.m.
Event ID:      5796
Task Category: BizTalk Server
Level:         Error
Keywords:      Classic
User:          N/A
Computer:     
Description:
The transport proxy method MoveToNextTransport() failed for adapter WCF-Custom: Reason: "Messaging engine has no record of delivering the message to the adapter. This could happen if MoveToNextTransport() is called multiple times for the same message by the adapter or if it is called for a message which was never delivered to the adapter by the messaging engine". Contact the adapter vendor.

Description:
The Messaging Engine encountered an error while suspending one or more messages.

The details of the service is given below

Service

-          WS-HTTP Binding

-          Reliable messaging enabled

-          Security :

o   Mode : Message

o   ClientCredentialType : Windows

Client

-          BizTalk WCF Custom adapter  with WS-http binding (BizTalk Server 2010)

-          Static two way port

-          Reliable messaging enabled

-          Security :

o   Mode : Message

o   ClientCredentialType : Windows

Every thing works fine as expected for the interface. ie the transaction is success. After a min of the transaction completion. I am getting the errors.
01. I have not checked Propagate Fault message (as a solution provided in another blog)
02. Its a static Port
03. I am using reliable messaging
The below error events are logged in the event viewer

Looks like the issue is BizTalk is not able to handle the reliable message properly. Its failing when it tries to close the connection after successful transaction.

I am working with Microsoft to get this sort it out currently, I will update once I have more details on this issue.
