I apologise for asking the lame (probably) question.
I am running WMQ on my developer's desktop (WinXP) with the system locale set to Russian. The testing server (Win2K) is running with the Irish locale. I am trying to use standard Windows GUI (MQ Explorer) to access the remote Queue Managers on the server. The connection fails unless I change my system locale settings to Irish (or English or American) and reboot Windows. When I connect using Java API, I can only connect if I properly set CCSID in the call parameters (otherwise connection fails). So - is there any way to customize the CCSID parameter in MQ Explorer configuration?
TIA |

When your MQ version is 5.x, the MQExplorer is only an MMC task and its codepage is coming from service level. That's why you have to set the environment variable MQS_FORCE_NTLANGID, for details click here: http://www.mqseries.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=21243
HTH,
Tibor
PS: reboot is required after setting! |

Yes. BTW, did I get it right that I have to set MQS_FORCE_NTLANGID on my desktop, not on the server?

AMQ9541: CCSID supplied for data conversion not supported.
EXPLANATION:
The program ended because, either the source CCSID '850' or the target CCSID
'866' is not valid, or is not currently supported.
ACTION:
Correct the CCSID that is not valid, or ensure that the requested CCSID can be
supported.
----- amqrscfa.c : 385 --------------------------------------------------------
C:\>echo %MQS_FORCE_NTLANGID%

Yes, do this setting on your client but it is useful on servers in other case.
What about MQCCSID? this may be 850 on your client.

The "source" is the QM on the server. It has CCSID 850. My ("target") CCSID is 866 (Russian). I do not have MQCCSID set - probably it is worth setting it to 850, actually... |

| Actually, setting MQCCSID really helped. Thanks a lot. As I expected, it was pretty lame question. |

Cool 
But don't think it an unnecessary topic/question, just remember when you start a queue manager on exotic localized box, like russian or hungarian
