Dear All,

We have a client -server MQSeries environment in Windows 2K where the client machines suddenly started throwing a 2059.

The message in the log shows this :

"The program ended because either the Source ccsid 437 or TARGET CCSID 1381 is not valid OR NOT CURRENTLY SUPPORTED...CORRECT THIS"

What does this mean and how can it be corrected ?
The operators told me there was absoultely no change done on the settings but somehow this error came all of a sudden !!!

Your help is highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Aravind

That's likely an application error message.

Reason Code 2059 is Queue Manager Not Available.

Likely, the client channel is failing for some reason or another - and the application is written to claim that this is because of a conversion issue - which is likely not the real issue.

Hi

You may please try setting the SYSTEM environmental variable MQCCSID on Windows client pc as 1381.

set MQCCSID=1381

Have you tried running a trace on the client machine ?

Steps
------
1. strmqtrc.exe

2. Run client app

3. endmqtrc

4. Find latest copies of *.TRC on client platform

Dear All,

Thanks for your help. The problem got fixed when we changed the
Local settings to "English (US)" on the client machine. (It was originally set to Chinese)

I think without this the MQSeries client was unable to interpret the Channel Tab file (which I saw had some Chinese characters !!!) and hence could not locate the queue manager.

Were you aware of this !!!

Regards,
Aravind

Not sure if that really was your problem.

That table is a binary file, and so can contain ANY hex value. These may look like Chinese characters, but they aren't. Also, MQ doesn't support names in anything other than A-Z, 1-9, and a couple of special characters.

Cheers,

It describes the situation as it is : you cannot convert chinese to english.
In this case you should use unicode (1208) or set default data conversion in ccsid.tbl to multilingual (850):
default 0 850 1 2 0
