It should run perfectly without MQSeries installed locally. Can I ask you to capture as much information as possible and send this to me at kolban@us.ibm.com.

Hi Kolban,

I just downloaded MQJExplorer and could not believe it. It is great. Get it to people and they would be addicted to it.

Do you have any plans to make it an open source effort?

Laze,
No immediate plans to make it open source but am very keen to continue to enhance it. If you have comments or suggestions, love to see them posted here.

In addition, if you have any ideas on how to get the word out, I'd love to know that too.

I have been considering exposing some of the functions as Java Interfaces. What this would mean is that interested folkds could implement some Java Interface and put the resulting class in some folder/directory. MQ on startup would then load that class which would result in a new menu item/view etc etc and be called with any needed information.

I am also considering an Eclipse version ... but that would be a lot of work and no obvious extra benefit. It isn't clear to me that the eclipse framework (www.eclipse.org) will catch on.

Hi,

I have downloaded MQJE and installed it on my WinNT machine. Whenever I try to run it, it complains about not finding MQM.DLL. Do I need to have the MQSeries server installed to be able to use this, or should I be able to run it from a client?

Thanks,
MM.



Try setting your paths system variable to point to the directory where you installed MQJExplorer

Thanks Tsliyan,

The problem we had was that we were attempting a connection via a local Queue Manager, and this was failing on mqm.dll. Kolban very kindly showed us that we could obtain the connection via a remote Queue Manager connection.

Excellent news - we too started to write our own version .

Adding 'exit' points would be a good idea, e.g. when a message is viewed people might want to call their own 'viewer'.
Also some of the things that MO71 does like copy/move individual messages to other queues.

I think this utility ought to be part of MQSeries and therefore officially supported by IBM.

Cheers

Here's another suggestion:

- add a search facility based on xml content - i.e. if a message contains xml data set up a filter to say something like 'show all messages whose content has field1=xxxx'

Here's a request:

- I've got V5.3 installed and noticed that the utility does not as yet show the new SSL fields on the channels. Are you planning to support V5.3?

Here's an observation on the current product:

If I list all channels, the SVRCONN ones for remote queue managers appear with a blue exclamation mark. Why?

Cheers ... RvZ

Guys,
I still plan on doing updates to this utility but demand slowed .... some parts are only partially formed such as SVRCONN channel browsing etc ...

I have a backlog of requests and the SSL components should indeed be added.

Hi Neil,

Thanks for a great product. How one would implement some kind of security while using MQJExplorer. For example we would like to limit developers access to put/get from queues not administering. How we can achieve this. We tried OAM but it is not working with JExplorer. We could you 'amqsput' and 'amqsget' on the queue using the user ID in admin server channel.

Thanks in advance for your response.

Hi folks,

I'm considered new to MQ. I have a question, when we use MQExplorer, we MUST log in with user 'mqm' in order to have access to the qmgr. But with MQJExplorer, I can simply log in as any user, and still be able to access and modify MQ objects for that particular qmgr. Why is that so? Please advise.

Thanks a lot.

Because MQJExplorer is a java application... Java clients when connecting to a Qmgr via a server connection channel with no mcauser is set... is granted access on the authority level of the userid running the listener (which ususally is mqm...)

don't ask me why... it is the horrible (known) truth...

Hi Michael,

But then we already set the authorization to be done on the server side, meaning the OAM is set on Qmgr and all the channels and queues. How come it still allows unauthorised access??

Because to really lock it down you need either SSL or a security exit
(See IPSec2 or check the Capitalware forum)

Enjoy

Michael,

Does this mean that if we set the mcauser in the channel definition, it will solve the problem?

Thanks.

No, if you do that, then every user connecting through the channel will use the ID you have set.

Cheers,
