Hello,   we tried installing 5.7 on AIX and although the interfaces worked fine, or appeared to, we were unable to get the host server running.   No GUIs could be loaded and we eventually reverted back to 5.5.    Tech support checked logs etc but were never able to determine the problem.   We will be installing 5.7 on a new AIX server shortly and hope the problem does not resurface.

QDX5.7 issues alot more warning for XML schemas then before.    Also, we have several TCP IP threads getting SEPCHARS errors even though they are not XML

[Amy Gray]

I have turned up monitoring and the msgSepChar field is blank for all of the instances where the metadata is displayed.   We do have several tclprocs before and after the Xlate but none update metadata.

[Amy Gray]

Yes I believe it does.

Scott,

The message queue is set up as follows in:

DEFINE QREMOTE(queue name)  +

     LIKE (SYSTEM.DEFAULT.REMOTE.QUEUE)  +

     RNAME(queue name on remote server) +

     RQMNAME(queue manager name on remote server) +

     XMITQ(transmit queue defined-see below)  +

     REPLACE   +

     DESCR(‘queue description’)

DEFINE QLOCAL(transmit queue) +

    LIKE(SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LOCAL.QUEUE) +

    MAXMSGL(67108864) MAXDEPTH(500000) +

    USAGE(XMITQ)  REPLACE  +

    GET(ENABLED) +

    DESCR(‘transmit queue description’)

The remote queue is the server queue that uses the transmit queue to send the data.  We have multiple threads set up with the individual server/remote queues.   We usually set up one xmit queue for each server we connect to; the multiple server/remote queues can point to one xmit queue.    Within Cloverleaf, the queue name is the server/remote queue; the xmit queue is not defined within Cloverleaf.

I hope this makes sense.  If not let me know,

Amy

Hi Scott,

We have run into similar issues when sending big messages outbound with a client connection.   For any messages that were too large, we needed to set up an MQ server connection and define the message length in the MQ definitions.   We could never get Cloverleaf to work with client connections and messages over 4 meg.  It sounds like you are reading inbound and have already examined the MQ setup.   Unfortunately, I don’t have a solution for you but wanted to let you know we have experienced similar problems.    

Good luck,

Amy Gray

Hi Osmand,

Thank you for the sample code.   With a few minor exceptions, we have similar code in place.  I have added your differences and processed a message thru to state11 for the outbound thread.    I removed the secondary thread in hopes we can add the logic to connect to JMS in the same Java script.  We have one inbound and one outbound thread.

Actually connecting to JMS via JAVA is where we are running into the questions.   I have the server and port I need to connect to as well as the JNDI and connection factory info.   What I don’t know is how to configure the outbound thread (tcpip, pdl-tcpip, file….)?  JMS isn’t an option like MQ is.  I also don’t know where I can determine what the wrapping characters should be to communicate with the queue.  

Any additional help would be appreciated.

Thank you so much,

Amy

Osmand,

I replied to your e-mail.  Please post a reply here if you do not receive it soon.

Thank you for your help,

Osmand,

For our application we are picking up an XML file and sending it to a JMS queue.  Currently, the processing for the file is on an AIX box.   I don’t know if JMS is available on AIX or if it’s just a SUN application.  I have access to a SUN box so I can route it from AIX to SUN to JMS if needed.

Are there certain APIs or licenses we need for the JMS processing?  If so, what are they?   I am also interested in seeing the TCL code and set up using Cloverleaf.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hello,

We are interested in connecting directly with a JMS queue as well.   Did you receive any response to your questions.

James,

We are interested in utilizing a connection with the JMS queues.  Does Cloverleaf have a way to connect to these JMS queues?   Is there code available or another site that is using the JMS protocol?

Also, do you know if the JMS protocol can be run on an AIX platform?   We run both AIX and SUN but the link we need to send from is on our AIX box.

Thank you,
