The adapter failed to transmit message going to send port in BizTalk Server 2009 - biztalk

I am using BizTalk Server 2009 to send EDI messages to my client using AS2. I am able to send messages, but getting an error while sending messages that exceeds 5KB of file size. I checked with the partner whether they are using any restrictions on file size, but they are able to exchange even some GB's of files with other trading partner.
I compared the files that are successfully sent with the one that failed. But found no difference between two except LIN, PIA, QTY and other segments.
I found the below error when tracked in event viewer.
The adapter failed to transmit message going to send port "SendTextFile" with URL "http://xxclienturlxx.com:2080/ipnet/as2". It will be retransmitted after the retry interval specified for this Send Port. Details:"The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.".
How do I resolve this?

Found the solution..
In BizTalk 2009, disabling "Enable chunked encoding" in Send port Transport type properties did the trick for me...
To have large message support when the size of the message is greater than 48 KB, the http send adapter is sending the data in chunks to the server instead of a full stream"
This post HTTP Send Adapter - Submit to ASP Page Issue helped me to find the solution.

Where can I find a fully working example of a TCP Client and Server for Indy in C++Builder?

I want to create an application that works as a "man in the middle" to analyze a protocol (ISO 8583) sent over TCP/IP.
A client connects to the application and sends some binary data (average length 500 bytes).
The application receives the message and then sends it to the real server.
The server responds to the request to the application.
The application sends the response to the original client.
Some context: The main idea is to get the raw binary data and convert it to a string for parsing and decoding the protocol.
There are two parts to the project:
The gateway part (man in the middle).
Parsing and decoding of the data.
I am expending too much time on the first part. So, if there is a mock-up that I can use to get me started, it will be nice. It doesn't have to be with Indy, but I prefer C++Builder.
This is my first time with Indy, and although I have experience working with TCP/IP, I have always used it as something that is already there, never at the low-level implementation.
I am testing with Hercules, and so far I can see the connections.
When I connect to a server in Hercules, I can see that my application is connecting. But, when my application disconnects, I don't see a message that says so, which means (I think) that my app is not disconnecting correctly (but I can reconnect as many times as I want).
I am sending data to my application using Hercules (a "Hello" string). It is working apparently, but I am having a hard time getting the actual data.
The documentation sometimes gets me into dead links, there are no samples or they are available on Delphi.
I am working with the following:
Windows 11 Home
Embarcadero® C++Builder 10.4 Version 27.0.40680.4203
Delphi and C++ Builder 10.4 Update 2
Indy 10.6.2.0
Have a look at Indy's TIdMappedPortTCP component. It is a TCP server that acts as a MITM proxy between clients and a specified server, giving you events when either party sends raw data.
Use the Bindings collection, or DefaultPort property, to specify the local IP/Port(s) that you want the server to listen for clients on.
Use the MappedHost and MappedPort properties to specify the remote server that you want TIdMappedPortTCP to connect to.
The OnBeforeConnect event is fired when a client has connected to TIdMappePortTCP.
The OnConnect event is fired just before TIdMappedPortTCP attempts to connect to the remote server.
The OnOutboundClientConnect event is fired when TIdMappedPortTCP has connected to the remote server.
The OnExecute event is fired when a client send bytes to TIdMappedPortTCP, and before the bytes are sent to the remote server. The event can alter the bytes, if desired.
The OnOutboundData event is fired when the remote server send bytes to TIdMappedPortTCP, and before the bytes are sent to the client. The event can alter the bytes, if desired.

Is there a requirement in BizTalk that requires a message coming in be sent out?

I have an orchestration that processes incoming messages that make a data call. If data is returned, a new message is created and sent back to the receive port via a "mover" BizTalk application. The original message is no longer needed, so I've been sending it to a discard folder. Is there a requirement in BizTalk that requires a message coming in to be sent out?
Each message that comes into BizTalk needs to be routed somewhere yes, otherwise it will suspend with a routing failure.
However as you are using an Orchestration, once it has consumed the message, and you don't need to send the original message anywhere from the Orchestration if you don't need it, when the Orchestration ends, that message will be gone
In message only scenarios, where you don't have an orchestration your options are
A file send port to a folder, where you have a script to clean them up
A null adapter on a send port, a null adapter is a custom adapter that takes the message from the message box and just discards it.

BizTalk: BTAHL72XReceivePipeline Pipeline Component

I've set-up two applications, one with FILE Receive Port and the other with a Send Port subscribing to that Receive Port with filter set as BTS.ReceivePortName == {ReceivePortNameHere}. I'm using BizTalk 2013 R2.
In the Receive Port, I'm using the pipeline 'BTAHL72XReceivePipeline'. And, in the Send Port, I'm using the pipeline 'BTAHL72XSendPipeline'.
When I drop a HL7 message into the Receive Port file location, it produces the error:
The Messaging engine failed to process a message submitted by
adapter:FILE Source URL:E:\InboundToBizTalk\*.hl7. Details:The
published message could not be routed because no subscribers were
found. This error occurs if the subscribing orchestration or send port
has not been enlisted, or if some of the message properties necessary
for subscription evaluation have not been promoted. Please use the
Biztalk Administration console to troubleshoot this failure.
However, I do have a subscription set. Why is this error occurring? Is there an issue with the pipeline component or the way I am using it?
On the Group Overview page search for "Subscriptions" and filter based on your Send port name.
Verify that you see an activation Subscription and confirm that the filter conditions on the subscription are correct.
The by far most likely causes:
A typo between the Receive Port Name and the value in the Filter.
The Send Port is not Enlisted or Started.
Do not use quotes in the filter property.
Turned out to be ACK which could not be routed therefore causing the whole flow to error. For an MLLP transport type, it is two way thus the ACK can be routed. For a FILE transport type, it is one way therefore ACK needs to be accounted for separately.
To get around this, another port was created which would subscribe to the ACK.

Linux Syslog Server Format

I am creating a syslog formatted message according to RFC3164 and sending it to my linux default syslog server which is listining of port 514.
The message i am sending is
<187>Nov 19 02:58:57 nms-server6 %cgmesh-2-outage: Outage detected on this device
I open a socket, make a datagram packet and send this packet on that socket.
Now in the var/log/syslog.log which i have configured to receive all the syslog messages as
. /var/log/syslog.log
I am getting this extra hostname getting inserted by the server automatically as show below
Nov 19 02:58:57 nms-server6 nms-server6 %cgmesh-2-outage: Outage detected on this device
as you see nms-server6 is getting repeated twice while i am sending it just once...so somehow the server is inserting it by default..
can some one share some knowledge on this ?
Are you adding the hostname in your message? If so, I don't think that's necessary as the hostname will be taken from the packet - which would explain the duplication.
Also, as a side note - it's nice that you've added the %fac-sev-mnemonic: portion, but that is not a standard, it's used by Cisco devices.
Here's a link to a good whitepaper that covers Cisco Mnemonics (and syslog management):

Service not available, closing transmission channel. The server response was: 4.4.2 Timeout while waiting for command

I'm trying to send a message and we sometime get this error :
Service not available, closing transmission channel. The server response was: 4.4.2 Timeout while waiting for command.
Anyone know what to do with this? Because it only happens "sometime" and apperently, for no specific reason.
I saw many article saying :
442 The server started to deliver the message but then the connection was broke (Source : http://www.sorkincomputer.net/SMTP%20errors.htm)
This is typically a server side (the SMTP server you're delivering to) error or a network connectivity error. There isn't anything you can do about it via your code, you would need to get the related IT staff involved to figure out why your connection is getting closed or interrupted.
