				| I recently created a TOPIC on our LINUX server MQ Version 8. and I am getting the error from the application which is connecting to this ALIAS Queue which is pointing to TOPIC.
 
 10/24/2018 07:20:09 AM - Process(7281.221) User(mqm) Program(amqzlaa0)
 Host(adc.dac.ifm.com) Installation(Installation1)
 VRMF(8.0.0.2) QMgr(NYCQM1)
 
 AMQ8009: Entity 'idabc' has insufficient authority to access topic string
 'ABC.TOPIC'.
 
 EXPLANATION:
 The specified entity is not authorized to access the required topic. The
 following permissions were requested: pub
 ACTION:
 Ensure that the correct level of authority has been set for this entity against
 appropriate topic objects, or ensure that the entity is a member of a
 privileged group.
 
 i have run the following 2 commands to fix this issue but the issue is still not fixed.
 setmqaut -m NYCQM1 -t topic -n ABC.TOPIC -p idabc +pub (the user ID used by putting application is idabc)
 
 setmqaut -m NYCQM1 -t topic -n ABC.TOPIC -g idabcgrp +pub
 
 Is there anything whihc has been missed out?

				| The -p attribute only works on Windows. 
 Make sure "idabcgrp" is the primary group of the "idabc" user. if not, give it's primary group +pub and try again (refreshing security as needed).

 Why do they keep inventing new stuff and hiding the details in the "What's new" section, where no one's going to look for new stuff?????
 
 
   
 
 @vicks_mq - ignore everything I said except the bit about refreshing security.
 
 @exerk - that dungeon floor is filthy. Clean it again. By licking it.

 You need to learn not to contradict my highly informed and experienced opinions with something as flimsy as "facts"

  What is the name of the TOPIC object you point at in the ALIAS queue?

  This error message says it is reporting the topic string, which might not be the same as the topic object, depending on how you created it.

  If the topic object name is not ABC.TOPIC, then try the above commands again with the topic object name instead of the topic string name.

				| We never grant user / principal based authorizations (-p), we always use groups (-g), even if it means creating a group that only has one user in it. 
 Granting -p authorization on Windows is dangerous, because MQ stores the user's SID. If the user is deleted and then recreated, it has a new SID, and the previous MQ authorizations will become orphaned, and the user will lose its MQ authorities that were based on their auth profiles.

 Thank you @hughson, I found out that the issue was we I was mentioning "Topic string" name which was different from Topic name and i should have used topic name.
 After using the topic name, i managed to resolve the issue.
