Hi
I am trying to "put" some text into the queue. When i log into Mainframe and check the queue, the message looks to be encrypted in some way.
Do i have to specify something in my DotNet code?
My code is somewhat like
message = "testing"
msgLen = message.Length
If (msgLen > 0) Then
'* put the next message to the queue
mqMsg = New MQMessage
mqMsg.WriteString(message)
mqMsg.Format = MQC.MQFMT_STRING
mqPutMsgOpts = New MQPutMessageOptions
Try
mqQueue.Put(mqMsg, mqPutMsgOpts) |

| My guess would be that you aren't specify MQGMO_CONVERT on your MQGET on the mainframe. |

Hi,
I am not doing any "GET" to retrieve the message. As of now I just put the message. When I check in Mainframe, it gets written in some encrypted form. Before doing a "PUT" can i specify something, so that it gets written in clear text.
I am very new to MQseries.  |

| On the channel to mainframe you can specify the convert attribute to yes |

what software are you using to view the message on the mainframe?
i agree with everyone, the message is proably still in ASCII and z/OS is EBCIDC. |

I am using Info Express to view in Mainframe.
Can anybody provide some sample code for this fix ?
TIA

In Java JMS we are setting the ccsid of the remote queue to the mainframe. Our 2.1 zOS version seems to have trouble doing an open with convert option: qmgr is on ccsid 500 and the MF is on 37...
Check if you can set it in .NET and set it to either 500 or 37. (Mainframe code page values CCSID=character code set id.)
If you use MO71 or MO72 support packs you should be able to see it in clear...
Enjoy  |
