Does anybody encountered an issue with MQClient when the application userid is greater than 12 characters ? How is certificate looked up ?
I have set personal certificate as default certificate using (runmqckm -setdefault) , still i encounter error message

when SSCAUTH turned on and no ssl issues when SSLCAUTH being OPTIONAL.
MQ version 7.0.1.11
Thanks |

Assuming that you are on UNIX or Linux, this passage in KC is enlightening:-
Quote: |
UNIX and Linux platforms generally restrict the length of a user ID to 12 characters. AIX® Version 5.3 has raised this limit but WebSphere MQ continues to observe a 12 character restriction on all UNIX and Linux platforms. If you use a user ID of greater than 12 characters, WebSphere MQ replaces it with the value UNKNOWN. |
(see Authority to administer WebSphere MQ on UNIX, Linux, and Windows systems)
Therefore, the user ID used to form the string 'ibmwebspheremq<logged-on-user-id>' which is the label used to locate the client certificate in the KDB file becomes 'ibmwebspheremqunknown'.
If you take trace of MQ with your problem and then grep for the string ibmwebspheremq, you will see the label that was generated to see if this is indeed your issue.
Suggest the following possibilites:-
- Stick to user IDs that stay within 12 character limit.
- Download a V8 client and use the Certificate Label feature.
Cheers
