Hi,

I have a simple MQSW flow with two activites. The first is a UPES activity which is set to run synchronously.

The problem I'm having is that, on the return to workflow from a successful UPES run, the flow is not advancing to the next activity - and the process instances for my activity is staying in a running state.

All of my tracing tells me that the message has gone to the right queue okay. All return/condition codes are 0. The message is definately on the EXE.XML queue and all the right info is there.

For reasons I don't understand, MQSW appears not to acknowledge the response sitting in the EXE.XML queue.

Has anyone else seen this ? Do you have any suggestions on how to solve this ?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Dave

It seems to me that you are probably not sending a properly formated ActivityImplInvokeReply message. Have a look in your fmcsys.log file and you will probably see an error message.

Thanks for that John,

I checked out the fmcsys.log and didn't see any errors along those lines. However, I did an export of the fdl file from runtime and found that there were 2 Queue managers listed.

Could this perhaps explain why my UPES response is
- either is not reaching MQSW
- or, if it is reaching MQSW, is not being accepted as a response (and
changing Activity state from Running to Finished).

As ever, thanks in advance for any advice.
Dave

Dave:

I have no experience with anything like you explain... but I would say you should delete the QM that is not being used... check the SYSGROUP definition (I believe thats where the QM name is stored).

GOOD LUCK

Is your PUT successful for sure? If yes, post the response XML you are sending back to workflow.

WF must be rejecting your XML. check your defined "ReplyTo" queue for any error messages.

Thanks for your advice folks, but it has turned out that it was an incorrect Queue definition on the manframe that was our culprit.




It was set to Trigger on "Every" rather than "First", and got stuck the first time an erronious message was lodged there.

At least thats how our m/f guys explained it to me !

Cheers,
Dave
