Error messages with WebSphere MQ clients

When an error occurs with a WebSphere MQ client system, error messages are put into the error files associated with the server, if possible. If the error cannot be placed there, the WebSphere MQ client attempts to place the error message in an error log in the root directory of the WebSphere MQ client machine.

 

Compaq OpenVMS Alpha, OS/2 Warp, UNIX systems, Windows, and Windows 95

Error messages for WebSphere MQ clients on Compaq OpenVMS Alpha, OS/2 Warp, UNIX systems, Windows, and Windows 95 are placed in the error logs in the same way they are for the respective WebSphere MQ server systems. Typically these files appear in:

  • MQS_ROOT:[MQM.ERRORS] on Compaq OpenVMS Alpha

  • /var/mqm/errors on UNIX systems

  • /mqm/errors on OS/2 Warp, Windows, and Windows 95

 

DOS and Windows 3.1 clients

The log file AMQERR01.LOG is held on C:\ unless the MQDATA environment variable is used to override the default. See Chapter 10, Using WebSphere MQ environment variables for details on how to use this and all other WebSphere MQ environment variables.
