I'm receiving a message from OS/390 in EBCIDIC format. On the input node I do a convert on the GET. I do not override Codepage or CCSID. the data converts fine except for the [ ] and ! characters. These of course, cause a XML parse exception. I have fooled with several CCSID's 37, 1208, etc, with no success. I was hoping I would not have to do any processing on the data, and just do a plain conversion, but will take what ever to get this running.

The input node domain is set to XML and passes the message to an output node.

I would think I could convert in this manner, rather than receiving as blob, but perhaps I'm wrong.

Here is a snippet of the expected CDATA tag format:
Code:

<![CDATA[ Test Message  ]]>


Here is what it looks like after convert on the MQGet:
Code:

<]$CDATA$ Test Message  ))>



Any ideas on how to solve this issue?

I will be the first to admit, the whole codepage/ccsid messes with my mind!

Looks to me like you have a message that is declared to be in ccsid 500 but was written in ccsid 37 or vice versa. Have the sending application specify the correct ccsid.

The reason your get with convert does not work is that the data on the message is not in the ccsid advertised in the last message header (MQMD/RFH2 ...

Enjoy
