Customer has an HP-UX client written in C connecting to AS400 QMGR. When the program makes a connection to the Queue Manager, the QMGR says that it is not able find definition for channel '1v!!@1ju'.
For example if the client was connecting to SVRCONN channel 'CONN1CLI'. A message would appear in the qmgr error log with the above message.
In fact there is a correlation between the 2 names as repeated characters in CONN1CLI are also repeated in the garbage channel name..
Does the client send the name of the channel to the server or is the server somehow screwing it up when it starts the SVRCONN channel?
The SVRCONN channel clearly displays as CONN1CLI on the Queue Manager and this is also the name set in the MQSERVER variable on the client.
To the experts, am i looking at an MQ Internal problem or even an OS problem as the queue manager was upgraded to CSD12 recently and the problem started immediately after this.
The problem is probably caused by there being no conversion from the code page on HPUX to the code page on AS400.
In English, this is 1051 -> 37.
If you also upgraded the HPUX OS at the same time then the code page table on HPUX, /usr/lib/nls/iconv/config.iconv, will have lost the WMQ supplied conversions, which include 1051 -> 37.
Run the WMQ utility reset_iconv_table to add the conversions back into the table. _________________ MQSeries.net helps those who help themselves..
