In client mode you use a channel connection via network (may be on the local machine), to connect to a QMgr. In bindings mode you use a API connection (via shared memory) to a QMgr.
The bindings method is faster, more secure, uses two-phase-commit and works without active listener. The client mode is able, to connect to QMgrs, which are not local to the application.

A couple of notes on 2-phase commit; it is used
* with queue manager as coordinator, when the MQBEGIN API call is used to begin a unit of work. In this case the program must be local (ie. a server-bound app).
* with an external transaction coordinator software product. In this case the program can run local or remote (ie. server-bound or client-bound app). Let's call these 2 subcases. In the remote subcase only, the Extended Transactional Client (ETC) is required to enable external 2-phase commit processing. The ETC is a separate installable item.

Hello,
So if I understand correctly when my app connects to a Qmgr in "server-mode" (NMQ_MQ_LIB : mqm.dll) . This program can issue a get/put (with synpoint options) AND a SQLServer database insert in Unit Of Work (ie distr. trans.)
Unfortunatly I don't seem to get my example up and running. I keep getting the error: MQRC_UOW_ENLISTMENT_ERROR 2354 .
I verified my registry : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSDTC\XADLL amqmtsxatm.dll = C:\Program Files\IBM\MQSeries\bin\amqmtsxatm.dll
I'm missing something?
Any help is welcome. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Alexander |

Hey,
Yes , of course i consulted google first. I found the IBM url http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21188893 where this is treated.
I verified my registry entry . But I can not get it up and running.
Are any other issues involved
btw : i'm using .NET2.0 and SQLServer2000 on a win xp sp2. The transactional part of the test app is enclosed in transactional facilities available in the .NET namespace System.EnterpriseServices.

.NET 2.0 is not yet supported. Make sure to use the previous version for the MQ part.
Enjoy

Hey,
Not Supported ; does that mean it doesn't work or IBM will not help you when you're trouble?

It certainly means the latter, which may well mean they know it doesn't or couldn't find a way to get it working.
Given the comments in here (use the search at the top of the page) I receive the impression .NET 2.0 doesn't work with MQ.
Disclaimer - English is (more or less) my first language but I don't speak .NET

hey
Made a test program in .NET 1.1. I still have the same problem.
Found a strange entry in event log
The XA Transaction Manager cannot load the requested XA Dll since a registry entry is required for this operation. Please create a string value in the registry under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MSDTC\XADLL where the value name is the name of the dll in the format dllname.dll and the value is the full path of the Dll. If you are not sure about the name or path of your XA Dll then please check the documentation for your XA provider. If this machine is part of a cluster please note that this registry entry needs to be made for each node in the cluster. amqmtsxatm.dll
But my registry key is correct (I think), even tried old style folder names. No result.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSDTC\XADLL]
"mtxoci.dll"="C:\\WINNT\\system32\\mtxoci.dll"
"C:\\Program Files\\IBM\\SQLLIB_01\\BIN\\db2app.dll"="C:\\Program Files\\IBM\\SQLLIB_01\\BIN\\db2app.dll"
"amqmtsxatm.dll "="C:\\Program Files\\IBM\\WebSphere MQ\\bin\\amqmtsxatm.dll "
I guess I need the extended transactional client software ?

Server bindings should work, I think.
That doens't look right to me, though.
I'd expect to have only one \ for most of those.

And you could try short paths, too. dir /x to find the short version of the folder name, but likely "c:\Progra~1\IBM\WebSph~1\bin\amqmtsxatm.dll".
I'd thought there was a bit in either the Quick Beginnings for Windows or in the plain contact admin for Windows that talked about configuring DTC coordination...

Windows treats multiple \\\\\ the same way UNIX treats multiple ///// in path names. Put in as many as you want and they are interpreted as only one. |

That still doesn't mean it's good practice... or that it looks right to me!

From: the WMB Systems Requirements page - http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27006588
In the Windows section - it shows:
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 (plus Service Pack 3A) (non-XA only)
and below the list -
Note 1: Globally coordinated transaction support (‘XA’) is provided only with DB2 and Oracle and only on 32-bit operating systems.
So, you cannot use XA coordination between WMB and SQL Server.
