Hi All,
Can anyone help me with my MQ message codepage problems I'm having at the moment please?

An external vendor is attempting to send messages using JMS into MQ dev server, which then send onto the mainframe. But, the character set had been arriving in ASCII format, however I need this to be in EBCDIC format on the mainframe.

The vendore has tried doing a character conversion from ASCII to EBCDIC (codepage 500), however the messages still look invalid.

Do you have any idea where the best place for the ASCII to EBCDIC conversion should happen and how?

Please somebody help!

Issue your MQGET with the MQGMO_CONVERT option.

Don't convert at the origin end as this will introduce inflexibility into your messaging.

Thanks for your reply, please can you be more specific on how to use this command

MQGET with the MQGMO_CONVERT option.

Please kindly advise me on how to go about the usage.
Note:
That I have
External - App server - Mainframe.

data usually arrived in ASCII format at App server and of course on the mainframe but need it to be in EBCDIC on mainframe.

I need the sceneraio to address this.

Thanks in advance.

It is an MQI (API) option, not a command.

I suggest you learn about the basics of MQ architecture from the IBM manuals and then ask for help on details that you don't understand.
