Hi All
I am using VB API to connect to MQServer on 2000. the following MQIC32.DLL is added to the path directory. I set the
Variable Name : MQSERVER
Value : CHAN1/TCP/11.102.31.36(1414)
Is there any other configuration that needs to be done...
I am getting error 2195
C:\>mqrc 2195
2195 0x00000893 MQRC_UNEXPECTED_ERROR
Help needed
Regards
Nik |

Often there is an FDC file in the errors directory when a 2195 appears. Is there one on your system (check "c:\program files\ibm\websphere mq\errors" for example) |

Hi,
I am using the sample supplied by the IBM, the program used is
amqsputb.vbp. I am changing the MQCONN to MQCONNX.
|
From this I deduced he'd found the samples & the comment regarding MqType. I still respectfully assert that it's better / cleaner / faster to bang on the client rather than pick & choose DLLs.

Hi mvic,
I installed MQ Client and used MQAX200.DLL to connect to the MQSERVER on another machine. It was working Fine. But MQ Supports nomal API calls to connect to the Queue Manager. I was Connecting to the MQServer using normal JAVA API programs using the follwing .jar files
import com.ibm.mq.MQC;
import com.ibm.mq.MQEnvironment;
import com.ibm.mq.MQException;
import com.ibm.mq.MQMessage;
import com.ibm.mq.MQPutMessageOptions;
import com.ibm.mq.MQQueue;
import com.ibm.mq.MQQueueManager;
Correct me if i am wrong, by using the normal VB API program from one machine cant we connect to MQServer on another machine
I am using the MQIC32.DLL which is added into the path directory
I set up the
Variable Name : MQSERVER
Value : CHAN1/TCP/11.102.31.36(1414)
Is installation of MQClient needed to connect to MQServer
Regards
Nik |

Using the VB API and an MQ Client installation you can connect to a queue manager on a remote machine. I have achieved this.

Now I'm confused; you said here that you were having problems. I assume you overcame the problems with using MQAX200.DLL.

If you installed the MQ client, then please don't copy the DLLs around. Just add the MQ bin directory to your PATH before running the app.

Yes. Did you look into the errors directory to see if there are any FDC files as I suggested? 2195 is not a common failure when connecting client to server.
Also, take a look through this troubleshooting section in the MQ Clients manual : http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmqv6/v6r0/topic/com.ibm.mq.csqzaf.doc/amq251c.htm#amq251c and see if it helps. |

Hi All,
Correct me if I am wrong. if there is no MQClient installed in a machine. With the help of the .DLL files copied from the MQServer. Can a normal VB API connect to Remote Queue Manager on another Machine by TCP/IP
Regards

Again with the no. You need the client installed. I do not believe you can achieve connection by copying a few dll files.
You need to install the client, which is not that much more than a few dll files. Why are you resisting installing the client? Why is it preferable in your position to attempt to use a small group of dll files? What issue are you trying to overcome?

So what you really need is not a method of connecting to a queue manager with a few DLLs, but a method of remotly installing MQ client on 200 machines? I would refer you to the MQ Clients manual (to be found at http://www-306.ibm.com/software/integration/wmq/library/ amongst other places) or the online infomation centre at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmqv6/v6r0/index.jsp. There's a section on unattended installation which covers the subject more completely than I ever could.
Also remember that the MQ Client is license free so your 200 clients do not increase the cost of your MQ installation.

I still stand by this statement. 
I fail to understand your problem. You say you have 200 client applications, all using a remote queue manager. I get that, it's quite a standard configuration. I get that this means you need to install 200 MQ clients. You also need to install the 200 client applications! Why can you not perform these 2 tasks simultaniously? What is the issue?
Please assist by repairing my understanding.

Hi Vitor,
Thanks for the reply. I had developed a standalone java API
to connect to the remote queue manager just by copying the
jar files and i am able to connect and put a message. i thought
that it can be acheived in VB

I stand by my previous assertion that it cannot. The VB API uses the same technology as the C/C++ interface not the Java one. There's not a direct correlation between the mqic32.dll et al & the jar files.
