Re: Connection or remote listener unavailable error
Add -m to the inetd.conf. After changing services and inetd, you have to refresh the inetd-service. On Solaris: ps -ef | grep inetd kill -HUP By the way: After recreating the Channels, did you reset the sequencenumber? ___ Disclaimer: Diese Mitteilung ist nur fuer die Empfaengerin / den Empfaenger bestimmt.

Re: Connection or remote listener unavailable error
Here's something from an old posting: The listener, when running, will be amqcrsta. But won't be running all the time, because it's started by inetd. Assuming your listener is running on port 1414, try: telnet localhost 1414 If you don't get the prompt back, it's running: Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]' If you get an error message: Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused It's not. Your inetd configuration is probably not correct. If your listener is running, then it could be problem caused by the network, e.g. router, firewall, etc. Prithwiraj Basu cc: Sent by: Subject: Re: Connection or remote listener unavailable error MQSeries List <[EMAIL PROTECTED] en.AC.AT> 10/21/2003 11:34 AM Please respond to MQSeries List Thanks for all the replies.

Re: Connection or remote listener unavailable error
That generic message ('Connection or remote listener unavailable') is usually accompanied by a more specific Communications Protocol return code. Can you provide us with some more information concerning this return code? Is it SNA or IP? I'm assuming that you have a listener running on your machine...

Re: Connection or remote listener unavailable error
I would get on the phone with their local MQ person and go over your channel defs as well as ports . It is usually a problem with something miss typed or not typed at all. Good luck. Dave I'm have a problem with channels too. -Original Message- From: Prithwiraj Basu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 21, 2003 10:34 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Connection or remote listener unavailable error Hi All, We have an app that has a bidirectional MQ link with another company.
