I get the following error in the error log; Basically, I have a message arriving from an external party with CCSID 1208 and targeting a remote queue definition on my local queue manager (on RS/6000). This remote queue definition targets a local queue on iSeries queue manager. The sender channel has been defined with convery(yes). However, I get the following error with the message ending up on the DLQ on the local queue manager.

Any reason why?

AMQ6047: Conversion not supported.

EXPLANATION:
WebSphere MQ is unable to convert string data tagged in CCSID 1208 to data in
CCSID 37.
ACTION:
Check the WebSphere MQ Application Programming Reference Appendix and the
appropriate National Language Support publications to see if the CCSIDs are
supported by your system.

How does the data look like? MQ converts by default only data that is consisting only of characters. The other question is than, whether 1208 to 37 is supported at all. Otherwise you will need a conversion exit, imho.

I agree, it certainly sounds like 1208 => 37 is unsupported.

This may (or may not) offer some assistance with problem resolution:

1208 to 37 should be supported (Unicode to US EBCDIC).

But check the WMQ App Prog Ref manual for the platforms concerned.

Quote:
OS/400 support for Unicode
OS/400 supports a special variant of UNICODE with CCSID 61952 from Version
3.1 onwards. Version 3.7 and later versions also support UNICODE CCSID 13488.
Version 4.3 and later versions support the UTF-8 UNICODE CCSID 1208. For
details on UNICODE support refer to the appropriate AS/400 publication relating
to your operating system.


A good data conversion guide is here:

I had the following filesets installed on the RS6000 machines and that fixed the problem.
