Hi, I'm trying to remove an MQ package (7.0.1.11) on solaris but I keep getting this error (this was the output of pkgrm -v):

+ /opt/mqm/bin/amqiclen -x
rc=7
+ [ 7 -ne 0 ]
+ echo ERROR: WebSphere MQ shared resources for this installation are still in use
ERROR: WebSphere MQ shared resources for this installation are still in use
+ echo Check that no Websphere MQ 7.0 processes are running
Check that no Websphere MQ 7.0 processes are running
+ echo before removing this fix pack
before removing this fix pack

Nothing is running, I have done ipcrm, amqiclen, and I have even rebooted the server - and its still coming up with that error. Also on the server are 7.0.1.4, and 7.0.0.1 - but attempting to remove them produces the same error.

Is there a way to manually remove the packages?

Are you following instructions on how to uninstall WMQ http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/wmqv7/v7r1/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.mq.doc%2Fsq10800_.htm

Which instruction steps worked? What steps did not?

Try running "/opt/mqm/bin/amqiclen -x -v" (as root) , the output may give more information.

amqiclen as root simply returns the prompt - so i assume it completes successfully. The only step that fails is pkgrm mqm-7.0.1.11 (I don't need to set the environment in 7.0) When the removal starts - it fails saying processes are still running. if i use the -v i see that amqiclen gives a retrun code of 7.

Again nothing is running, server has been restarted.

Starting preremove script

OK, and this is a last resort and is bit of a hack, but you can remove amqiclen, the code in the fixpack preremove script will only try to run it if it exists

Fantastic! the renaming of amqiclen did the trick! Thanks for this.
