Hi there,

We send files using spazio put tool across MQ network and offload them from queues on destination server with use of trigger monitor + spazio get tool (kind of home made MQ FTE). Everything goes smoothly and working really well however on one server, from time to time, we receive alert that messages arrived to DLQ. When I check the reason I got this: MQFB_APPL_CANNOT_BE_STARTED.

This is strange because we use the same application in the same way on all queue managers/clients and it works. There is also nothing in error logs, nothing specific in windows logs either. Can anybody has idea what may cause this problem?

Thanks

What's in stderr and stdout, assuming you pipe out anything to it?

Sorry for delayed answer.

It looks like the tool which is being started by a triggered process is not writing anything to logs :/

On the failing server - what mq version? What o/s version?

On the failing server, anything written to the mq error logs? To the o/s system error logs?

Could this be because a trigger gets written while the application is processing?
What is the trigger definition: trigger first ?
How many processes are running in parallel?
Any entries in the system log?
Are there any resource restrictions?

When I see the MQFB_APPL_CANNOT_BE_STARTED error intermittently, it usually has to do with some kind of operating system resource limit being hit, so the new triggered process can not be started.

One way to get more information is run a trace like below on the runmqtrm trigger monitor process:
NOTE: use the -l switch to put a cap on the max size of the trace

strmqtrc -m qmgr -t all -p runmqtrm -l 20

When you see the issue again, stop the trace and look for where the triggered process was being started. You will probably see the underlying error that the operating system returned if/when that failed on the start command.

On the receiver end server, are any resource warning errors issued when the qmgr is re-started?

Yes, Trigger type is first, so there should be no concurrent processes running at the same time.

There is absolutely nothing neither in mq logs nor in system. Enabling trace is a good idea, I will enable it to see what is going on there in the background.

I dont see resources problem. Server has 16GB while only 6GB in use and planty of processors not utilized havily,
