WMQ 7.0.1.10 on AIX 6.1
How can I get the dates in the MQ error log to be logical UK format ones instead of the confusing American format ones?

06/05/13 08:18:37 - Process(10354772.1) User(xxxx) Program(runmqchl_nd) Host(zzzzz)
AMQ9002: Channel 'CH01.XXXX.YYY' is starting.
EXPLANATION:
Channel 'CH01.XXXX.YYY' is starting.
ACTION:
None. |
This date is 5th June 2013 - since I am a logical sort of person I would like it in either dd/mm/yy or yy/mm/dd format.
How can that be achieved? |

AIX provides locales for specifying preferred language and cultural conventions for various categories, including date and time formatting. The "locale -a" command displays a list of supported locales; try picking one of those to set the LANG or LC_* environment variables accordingly, (for example: "export LANG=en_GB").
However, if WMQ doesn't use the locale to format dates in log files, then that won't help at all. |

I don't believe there is such a thing as a mqm.en_GB fileset if that is what you mean? |

I did mean something like that, although it would likely be mqm.en_UK but.
Did you confirm that LOCALE is set in the shell that starts the queue manager? This might not, somehow, be the same as the one that is set for the mqm user... |

There is no UK fileset.
LOCALE is not set.
LANG is set in the profile that starts the QM. |

If there's no better option, it's always possible to copy and edit the logfiles, with any number of user-friendly regex utilities. For example:
| Code: |
| sed -e 's/^\([0-9]\{2\}\)\/\([0-9]\{2\}\)\/\([0-9]\{2\}\)/\2\/\1\/\3/' < oldlogfile > newlogfile |
