Have anyone tried with installing both MQServer and MQClient on the same box ? Would it work or would there be conflicts ?
Say, if I have a VB 6.0 program reading/writing to a queue. Can I compile this program with the client library and things would still work ?
And if I recompile this program with the server library, it would behave the same ?
Anyone, please help. |

I have both installed on my machine without any problems. (Win2K and MQ 5.3 CSD06 with a 5.2.1 Client) |

It should work like a charm. But the only glitch to this story is that your app should *not* use features that are solely available on client and not on server. Such as connecting to multiple qms. There is a write up on this very topic somewhere in the Clients manual, i think.

Kumar,
Connecting to multiple clients is available from within the server. However to do so you need to logon first to the default QMGR and have all the other QMGRs you are going to connect to defined as a client connection in the default QMFR (whether they are on the same server or not). Bummer if you need MQ to be your transaction coordinator for your DB.
Hope it helps some.

But you still technically have only 1 connection to one QM. Apps in bindings mode cannot MQCONN to more than 1 QM. _________________ Peter Potkay
