I have installed mqseries v5.1 on windows xp. The installation went fine. When I try to create a queue manager from the MQSeries Explorer, it says Creating Queue Manager and sits pretty on that screen for ever  .
1. I would like to know if this version of MQSeries is any good with Windows XP.
2. If they are compatible, I would like to know if I need to some settings before I create a Queue manager
Thanks for your help in advance. |

You'd be lucky to get 5.2 working on XP.

Why not do the right thing and get the current version of MQ?

What do you mean.
That version of the product has not been there since I started working on MQ. IBM is not even supporting that version. Even 5.2 is out of support for almost 2 years now. Why would your boss want you to use 5.1 then? |

| There have been so many problems fixed between 5.1 to 5.2 and 5.2 to 5.3 that I would think the savings in problem determination on your end would more than justify the cost. |

I do frequently and they back me all the way. They expect me to keep them current and certainly to keep them off old and unsupported version.
It really isn't a big deal to keep current with MQ...especially on a new 'pie'. |
