Can you change the MF process to send the reply with COD? Also, what version of MQSeries are you running?
-----Original Message----- From: MQSeries List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 07, 2007 8:34 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Help Needed Let me describe our dilema and if anyone has any suggestions on how we can troubleshoot this, it would be greatly appreciated. We have a mainframe application that receives messages from a server based application on a queue. The mainframe processes the message and puts a response on a queue (it gets this from the reply to queue/manager from the initial message). The application that reads the response is a biztalk application and does a mqget every second to see if messages are waiting (I know thats alot of overhead, but until we can re-architect it I am stuck with it). The problem is that we are intermittently losing messages. The mainframe confirms that they are putting the response on the queue, and the biztalk application does not appear to be seeing it. We put a network sniffer and we actually do see the mq message coming over the network. We compared that message to one that was properly received and nothing jumps out at us. In a normal situation, as soon as a message is picked off the queue it writes to a SQL database with tracking info. The "lost" transactions are not appearing on the database. Now the questions: Is there any way to turn on any MQ logging so we can see that the message is actually being picked off the queue? The queues are setup as persistent. Is there anyway to interpret what is in the log/active folder to see what is going on? Can the MQ trace facility be used to help us? Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated. In parallel, the developers are looking at the code to see if there is a flaw. (maybe 2 messages arriving at the same time - it processes 1 and drops the next?). ======================================================================== ====== This message and any attachments are solely for the intended recipient.
