I'm trying to configure a BizTalk server in BizTalk Server 2013 R2. I'm using Windows 10 and a local DB. I can create the Enterprise SSO and the Business Rule Engine but not the BizTalk Server Group and the BizTalk Runtime.

It gives me the following error:

Failed to read "Software\Microsoft\BizTalk Server\3.0\Administration" from the registry. The network path was not found.

I've tried everything I could imagine, any ideas as why I can't create the group?

EDIT: After trying everything I could imagine, the problem was in the name of my machine that was too big. Because of that, BizTalk could not write in the registry.

BizTalk Server 2013 R2 is not supported on Windows 10.

You can look this up in the official BizTalk Server documentation, which you can find here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj248697.aspx

Supported for BizTalk Server 2013 R2 are: Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 SP1.

Windows 10 is not supported.

  • I've read that too, but one of my co-workers is currently running it on Windows 10. Could it be because of user permissions? I've tried some possible solutions, but none of them seems to solve the issue. – Henrique Moisés Aug 25 '16 at 13:14

    To be honest, I don't know, just wanted to make it clear that it is, in fact, unsupported. It could be that any new update/hotfix breaks compatibility with Windows 10, so in my opinion I would not bother trying to get it to work on Windows 10. Instead, you might spin up a VM with a supported platform to install it. – zurebe-pieter Aug 26 '16 at 11:46

After trying everything I've searched on the web, I finally managed to solved the problem. Because my machine name was too long (15 characters), BizTalk could not edit the registry. After changing it to 4 characters long, I solved the problem and I was able configure the server.
