I am using the following command to change the HTTP listener port to 7800 of an execution group, so that my deployed web service starts listening on this port-

mqsichangeproperties BrokerName -o HTTPConnector -e EGName -n port -v 7800

This command run successfully, after which I restarted the Broker. But still the port is set to its initial value of 7801

Can you please let me know what should I do now.

Is port 7800 already in use?

use the netstat command to help you here.

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions.

Please show us your mqsichangeproperties command and its output.
Then the mqsireportproperties command and its output that you used to verify it worked.

Thanks everyone.
Using netstat command I found that the port 7800 was already in use by another EG. That's why I was not able to set that port.

But strange this was the command run successfully everytime I tried without prompting with any error message on the console. May be some error messages would have been generated in log files.

There are some notes in the documentation about how the EG's allocate the HTTP Port. It might be worth reviewing.

I usually allocare the HTTP Ports to non standard numbers. That way I can easily see where there are problems. Also, using non default ports is IMHO more secure.(I know that others may disagree here)

The command you executed succeeded.

It correctly set the port that the EG would use.

The EG was unable to use that port.
