We have the need to connect to MQ Server going through a HTTP proxy. Looking at the documentation we realised that we need to use MQIPT. We then setup the following configuration:-
MQIPT1->HTTP Proxy -> MQIPT2->MQ Server
How this is NOT working, and we are getting the following error
MQCPI014 Eyecatcher protocol (3c21444f) not recognized
Our config files look something like:-
conf for IPT 1
Active=true
ListenerPort=
Destination=xx.xx.xx.xx
DestinationPort=
HTTP=true
HTTPProxy=xx.xx.xx.xx
HTTPProxyPort=8080
conf for IPT2
Active=true
ListenerPort=1417
Destination=xx.xx.xx.xx
DestinationPort=
Of soure the xx.xx.xx.xx, is just a dummy IP for the purposes of this example.
Do we need to specify on IPT2 that it listens for HTTP somehow? I suspect it is IPT2 config file that is causing me a problem.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards

I remember the http proxy thing being tricky.
I had it up once. The sender needs to specify an http proxy and the receiver too. Check out what the manual says.
Enjoy

I have looked at the manual and the example conf files, in the examples conf file for IPT2 does NOT mention anything about the proxy.
Does the queue manager name, queue channel etc need to have MQIPT specified before it?? ie MQIPT.MYCHANNEL as opposed to just MYCHANNEL (I doubt it though).
If you could find your conf files that had things working that would be great.
Once again any help would be greatly appreciated. |

The channel name is as configured on the qmgr.
In the exemple the qmgr seemed to have a channel defined as MQIPT.MYCHANNEL.
You will not be able to establish a connection if you do not specify the name of the channel exactly as it has been defined on the QMGR....
Dont remember anything about the channel being specified in the config file, only host and port...
Try with 2 proxies. make sure you define them right in the config files. (both proxies could be the same one?). One proxy needs to be defined as server (on the receiver MQIPT) and one as sender (on the sending MQIPT).
We ended up defining a self signed certificate for the MQIPT machine and using SSL with our partner
Enjoy

Which HTTP proxy are you using ? It must support HTTP 1.1 protocol and have persistent connections enabled. |
