Hi All,

I am using WMQI 2.1, CSD 07.

I am converting input XML files to '/' delimited message in the output. Recently we started recieving input messages containing RFH2 header data.

The problem identified from the trace file is that the parser is failing to navigate to the message body elements. The resultant output obtained is the header data along with a series of delimiters something like "RFH ... <psc> ... </psc>.. <mcd> ... </mcd> //////...."

I am unable to understand why it is happening this way. I have a gut feeling that since the header "looks" similiar to XML : <psc> ... </psc> etc. does it consider the header data to be the message body? If so then is there any way to help the parser know that it should expect an RFH2 header before the message body? Do you think that I need to strip the RFH2 header in the input and parse it and then re-attach it to the output message.

Awaiting for your kind suggestions.

Thanks.

It sounds like the Format fiels in the MQMD is not filled in correctly to identify that an RFH2 header is present. Otherwise, WMQI will parse out the RFH2 to a seperate tree structure.

What does a Trace of {Root} show for the MQMD Format field.

Cheers,

Hi Eddie,

I checked the trace node data before the compute as well as after the compute node. In both cases I found that the Format value of MQMD is set to 'MQHRF2 ' which indicates RFH2 header.

Hi All,

Just to update you of the status of the problem, I have tried the following:

1. Copied the message to my editor and sent the message through RFHUTIL along with the header data. (Currently the message is being put to the queue by another application).

Result: The messages landed up in failure queue. The error reported was that the parser was expecting the root element to be <xyz> but found <psc> instead.

2. Deleted the header part and sent it through RFHUTIL.

Result: Received the proper and desirable output.

However I am clueless as to how to solve the problem, because the messages are actually going to be sent by the application directly along with the header and not through RFHUtil

Hi All,

Solved the problem!!!!!

The problem was traced to the RFH2 header itself. The mcd folder value in the header was set to "none". This caused the parser to treat the message as a BLOB instead of MRM.

So, it could not navigate through the message tree. On changing the mcd folder values like setting the message domain to MRM format to XMl etc it worked.

Thanks to all for your support.
