  • 1.  ACE to MQ connection issue in MAC M1 laptop

    Posted Fri March 03, 2023 04:31 PM

    Hi Team,

    I installed ACE 12 developer edition to MAC M1 Max.
    I tried File Input process and it is working fine. I am facing issue with MQ connectivity.

    As this is MAC so I need to install MQ on container. MQ is up and running and I am able to connect MQ server through https://localhost:443/mq.. as well as with MQ explorer and drop/read messages.

    To configure ACE and MQ I am using connection policy.

    Configuration for connection policy as below:

    Connection: Server

    QM Name: QM1

    host: localhost

    port: 1414

    channel: DEV.ADMIN.SVRCONN
    remaining fields kept as it is.

    Deployed the Bar.
    Execute mqsisetdbparams as below:

    ACE $ mqsisetdbparms -w /Users/...../IBM/ACET12/workspace/...../POC/TEST_SERVER -n mq::QMGR::QM1 -u uname -p pswd
    BIP8071I: Successful command completion.

     

    Issue:
    ACE is unable to connect to MQ as no channel is up or no application connection available.
    As per the TEST_SERVER Logs there is no error either which can show that ACE to MQ connectivity is unsuccessful.

    Any help or guidance will be helpful. If there any documentation or Learning Material for ACE to MQ (channel with password) available please share. I'll follow the guideline.

    Thanks,

    Avik Naskar

    Based on the information you provided, it appears that you are experiencing connectivity issues between ACE and MQ on your MAC M1 Max machine. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

    1. Check if the channel name (DEV.ADMIN.SVRCONN) is correct and active on the MQ server.

    2. Verify that the MQ listener is running and listening on port 1414.

    3. Check if the QM1 queue manager is running on the MQ server and is accepting connections.

    4. Verify that the MQ connection properties in the ACE connection policy are correct, including the host, port, and channel name.

    5. Check if the MQ user ID and password used in the mqsisetdbparams command are correct and have sufficient privileges to connect to the MQ queue manager.

    6. Check the ACE server logs for any error messages related to the MQ connectivity.

    Regarding documentation or learning materials for ACE to MQ (channel with password), you may refer to the following links:

    1. IBM Knowledge Center

    2. IBM Developer Communitywordle

    I hope this helps you in resolving the issue. If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to ask.

    Thanks for providing Avik with a link to the documentation, James.  The Knowledge Center link is actually for CICS, so I wanted to provide the link to the ACE 12 documentation.  This link is specifically to the set of topics about using ACE 12 with IBM MQ: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/app-connect/12.0?topic=applications-processing-mq-messages.
