I have installed the XP beta MQ5-3 on an XP pro laptop without network connections. As a result I cannot set a static IP address for the laptop (unless someone knows how I can do this).

I have set the MQNOREMPOOL env variable to a value of 1 as per some other posts I have seen.

I have created a channel between two queue managers defining the connection name as 'hostame'(1415).

I checked the services and the receiving QM was listening on 1415. I also checked netstat and the following was showing. Not sure why it is 0.0.0.0:0

TCP DMJ:1415 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
TCP DMJ:1416 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING

I can ping the both the loopback addy and the hostname without any problems.

The channel does not connect and shows an error message as follows

11/4/2002 20:08:40
AMQ9002: Channel program started.

EXPLANATION:
Channel program 'QM2.QM1' started.
ACTION:
None.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11/4/2002 20:08:40
AMQ9202: Remote host 'DMJ (127.0.0.1) (1415)' not available, retry later.

EXPLANATION:
The attempt to allocate a conversation using TCP/IP to host 'DMJ
(127.0.0.1) (1415)' was not successful. However the error may be a transitory
one and it may be possible to successfully allocate a TCP/IP conversation
later.
ACTION:
Try the connection again later. If the failure persists, record the error
values and contact your systems administrator. The return code from TCP/IP is
10061 (X'274D'). The reason for the failure may be that this host cannot reach
the destination host. It may also be possible that the listening program at
host 'DMJ (127.0.0.1) (1415)' was not running. If this is the case,
perform the relevant operations to start the TCP/IP listening program, and try
again.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
DMJ

netstat will show 0.0.0.0 because there is no active connection - once a connection is established the originating IP address will be shown.

looks like it is listening on port 1415 and 1416 - can you "telnet 127.0.0.1 1415" try the same on 1416

on Windows platforms a successfull telnet session to a listener will just show a blank window - an unseccessfull attempt will be reflected as per normal

regards

Problem solved.

It turned out that my firewall, Zone Alarm Pro, was not allowing the listener program or channel initiation programs to run as servers and therefore they were banned from using TCPIP.

Cheers
