Having downloaded the redistributable IBM MQ client "9.3.0.1-IBM-MQC-Redist-Win64.zip" I am unsure how to use this in a .NET console app.
Installing the full MQ server is not an option, this must be a method where DLLs are bundled with the application because it shall run in an environment, where installing MSI or the like is not an option.
I require unmanaged connections to the MQ server because I need to control which TLS cipher is used and only the unmanaged client allows me to do that.
I am getting an error code 2538 when I try to connect to the queue manager, when I reference amqmdnet.dll from that package.
If I install the MQ server on the same machine and reference amqmdnet.dll from the MQ server installation, everything works fine. |

What did you next do after downloading the .zip file?
For example, did you read the readme file? Then what?

The readme which just says
| Quote: |
This directory contains the MQ Redistributable Client package
and components.
See the licenses subdirectory for more information.
Version:
9.3.0.1 |
I tried copying all the files from the bin folder to the output dir of my app. I discovered that the IBM library is unable to find the required assemblies, because if I use the DEVPATH trick described in the manual, things work. But since using the DEVPATH technique is discouraged, this is not a viable solution. |

DEVPATH is not a trick; rather, it's a method to configure the environment. Who discourages DEVPATH use? And, more importantly, why?

| This is an advanced feature, intended only for development. |
and as to why
| Quote: |
| Use this setting only at development time. The runtime does not check the versions on strong-named assemblies found in the DEVPATH. It simply uses the first assembly it finds. |

makes it quite clear how MQ DLL's are located by GAC, Probing or DEVPATH. If this doesn't work, there is something wrong with your installation, setup or application.
