Hello,

Our client program uses correlation id to get response messages from a reply queue. But sometimes, although the server program writes its response message to the reply queue, the client program cannot find the response message. Moreover, MQ explorer cannot find the response message either. I suspects that there is some other application consuming messages from the reply queue, is there any way to find out which application is consuming my messages?

Thanks a lot.

Look at the Open Input Count of the queue in question. If you have two applications (or two copies of one application) reading from the queue, the Open Input Count will be 2.

If your Open Input Count is 1, then you only have one application reading from the queue.

You can look at the queue status to see exactly which processes have the queue open, and what for (put, get, browse etc).

And you can use Queue Statistics to see how many messages have gone in and out of a queue since the last time you checked Queue Statistics.

You are assumming the server program actually put the response. Until you can prove that it really did do the put, don't be to quick to blame some other entity for getting it.

Hi

Be aware that the Q stats do not record every update to the queue. If messages are backed out in the application they may appear as being put in the stats. Also if messages expire they may not show up as gotten form the Q in the stats.

Could your msgs have expired?

Regards

Frank

Also, you may want to check your dead letter q(s) to make sure your messages aren't there
