1. The server had not been booted for a long time and it took an hour to get thru the microsoft updates.
2. I could not delete the application in the 2006 R2 server administrator because the project was the default application. I had to select another project.
3. When I deleted the application the dll in the gac did not delete. This is a problem with the MSI load. I had to manually uninstall all the related dll from the GAC. This was evedent because I had versioned all my applications. make sure you use versioning on your BizTalk applications.
4. The exported binding file. Had different versions of the dll in them. I use notepad to change the version in the binding file to match my new versions. Remember when you extract the binding file to select the global button in the lower left to pick up the party information.
