    The mqclient.ini file is just a simple text file that you can create and refer to. It is not IN a jar file.

    There is an example in IBM Docs here: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/ibm-mq/9.3?topic=client-configuring-using-configuration-file

    And this pages tells you where to store it once you have created it: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/ibm-mq/9.3?topic=file-location-client-configuration

    Sounds like you might want to put in the Java home directory.

    Morag,

    That link contains an error. For the location of the mqclient.ini file it talks about the MQ_FILE_PATH location, where it should be talking about the MQ_DATA_PATH location. (Especially for windows...)
    As an example the MQ_FILE_PATH points to the MQ installation directory (/opt/mqm) whereas MQ_DATA_PATH points to where your data resides. (in Linux /var/mqm)

    The MQ_FILE_PATH may be the right location for a client only installation, but if you have both the client and the server installed you should be using MQ_DATA_PATH, and the page should make the distinction.

    Did you put this in the feedback link? These are IBM Docs pages so I cannot make changes - you'll have to tell IBM.

    Cheers,
    Morag
