All, I'm having problems sending special characters between two queue managers from NT 4 (SP6a) to LINUX (Redhat v7.2). I set the LINUX queue manager's CCSID to 850 (so that no conversions are necessary) and managed to get special characters successfully sent from Linux to NT.
However, when sending the message with special chars from NT to Linux the following hex values get converted to extended codes: 14 to F4 - where hex 14 represents device control character 4 15 to F5 - where hex 15 represents negative acknowledgement 9B to BD 9D to BE I viewed the message using amqsbcg and browsing the message while still on the queue. The NT queue manager is running MQ v5.1 and the Linux is running v5.2. What I can't understand is why MQ converts the message even when the CCSIDs on both queue managers are set to the same value. Has anyone else experienced a problem similar to this? Does anyone know how to check the default active code page used in a Linux session. Maybe this has something to do with the problem I am seeing.
