avoid having a space in any directory name...
Shouldn't you target something like /opt/mqv9 ?
Have fun

I already have a MQ installed on
lsb_release -a
LSB Version: :core-4.1-amd64:core-4.1-noarch
Distributor ID: RedHatEnterpriseServer
Description: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.3 (Maipo)
Release: 7.3
Codename: Maipo
In earlier version of RHEL V5 , crtmqpkg was working as expected. but current version above we are having the problem
Below is the error
oot@Test ~]$ /mnt/mqm-7.5.0.1/crtmqpkg abc
ERROR: "/root" does not contain MQSeries rpm files
[root@Test ~]$
[root@Test ~]$ cd /mnt/mqm-7.5.0.1/
[root@Test mqm-7.5.0.1]$./crtmqpkg abc
Repackaging WebSphere MQ for "x86_64" using suffix "abc"
ERROR: Return code "1" from rpm2cpio | pax command for package "MQSeriesAMS}"
#
rmdir: failed to remove ‘/var/tmp/mq_repackage’: Directory not empty
Repackaging complete - rpms are at "/var/tmp/mq_rpms/abc/x86_64"
[root@Test mqm-7.5.0.1]$
I feel There is something fishy with new RHEL V7 server and MQ compatibility,
Please Help immediatly

Have you applied the RedHat fix IBM says is needed?

We're not a help desk. You want immediate help a) raise a PMR b) don't reopen a year old thread which has only the most tangential association with your problem

Read this this and pay special attention to the crtmqpkg command. It mentions that you can tell it where to put the newly renamed packages.
When you go to install it with rpm, you will need to use the --prefix option to install it in a non default location. |

When I issue the crtpkg command as below
=============
/mnt/mqm-7.5.0.1/crtmqpkg 2
Repackaging WebSphere MQ for "x86_64" using suffix "2"
ERROR: Return code "1" from rpm2cpio | pax command for package "MQSeriesAMS}"
#
rmdir: failed to remove ‘/var/tmp/mq_repackage’: Directory not empty
Repackaging complete - rpms are at "/var/tmp/mq_rpms/2/x86_64"
Things assumed:
1. I am creating the package under /tmp directory only, i have also verified echo $TMPDIR as well.
2.I am using the below command to install in MQ on some other location
rpm --prefix /opt/mqm75 -ivh /var/tmp/mq_rpms/1/x86_64/MQSeriesRuntime_1-7.5.0-1.x86_64.rpm
3. I am doing evrything under root.
Now the question is when I issue crtpkg command , it is stating that repacking is done successfully as above with some errors, but when I go to var/tmp/mq_rpms/2/x86_64, There is no package created , no rpm file are present. Hence I am unable to install required package on required location.
1. Though I am doing it under root, why the package directory is being created , but not the rpm files?
2.Just to ensure , I have also tried under mqm account to create package, but it clearly states
./crtmqpkg 2
ERROR: You must be root to run this script
As some body stated above , Helpers are not help desk... I do understand, Seeking for Help does not mean you need to reply for everything I put up... But I really appriciate your reply earlier.. and would be waiting for this too if you have any concrete things which you would have faced earlier...
Thanks

Your last error said you need to be root. Try that and target an empty directory with enough space.
Installing MQ always requires root permission. "It is good to be the king", Mel Brooks. |

O.K so in your title you ask about installing MQ 9.
However when you look at using crtmqpkg, the only references I see are about MQ 7.5... So why are you not using the crtmqpkg delivered with MQ9 ???

1. I always tried to install under root, request you to go through all the details I have mentioned ... 
2. I have tried to install IBM MQ7.5.0.1 on RHEL V5 system, crtmqpkg is successfully getting executed and repackaging is done without any issues.
But when I try to do with RHEL V7 the same with crtmqpkg of MQ 7.5.0.1 , I am getting errors and RPM repackaging is not done.
3.I have verified the space availability and changed TMPDIR tp /tmp where more than enough space for repackaging is available, still the issue remained.
4. Then I tried to execute crtmqpakg of IBM MQ 9 on RHEL V7! Found it is executed without any issues with same syntax etc..! Then I thought why the Hell MQ 7.5 crtmqpkg is not getting installed!
What i found was there are some issues with pax symlink etc( I do not really know! I know some internal library issues with some Linux Distros  ).
Below is the link:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1IC96336
Hence I have decided not to create Package for MQ 7.5 on RHEL V7.. it does not work!! . Simply install MQ 7.5 on RHEL V7 on default location and then Create IBM MQ 9 package and install it in required location and then Move MQ 7.5 Qmgr to IBM MQ 9 !!.
Though I really dont know exact issue of crtmqpkg of MQ 7.5 on RHEL V7, but MQ 7.5 does get installed on RHEL V7 without repackaging it! so Install IBM MQ 7.5 without repacking it , by assuming that there are no other installation along with it. Once it is installed then use IBM MQ 9 crtpkg to repackage and install it along side of IBM MQ 7.5!

Because , I wanted to install IBM MQ 7.5 in different location on the server where already IBM MQ 9 is installed! and Test whether switching Qmgrs from Each version is feasible in case of any failure!.. crtmqpkg is working fine for MQ 9.0 , I have provided what i foundout below in the forum trail in the end

Don't remember the fix pack. But I thought I had installed 7.5 in a non default location using crtmqpkg... It is important however that when you run crtmqpkg, that your target directory be empty.

After running a qmgr at MQ v9.0, it won't be able to run under MQ v7.5, because all the qmgr objects are upgraded to v9.0 format when the qmgr is first started, and there is no backward compatibility with previous versions.

| Which is why you might want to zip up the qmgr and log directories while the Qmgr is stopped before you make a major change. That would make the option of restoring your Qmgr possible. |
