Who knows anything about MQ?

[Drifter]

Getting consistant MQ error 2045 on the OPEN of a queue. Anyone?

Could the queue manager be down? I cant check, calling MQ from mainframe. Worked yesterday but my support guy is not in today.

Googled it and see that error 2045 is MQRC_OPTION_NOT_VALID_FOR_TYPE.

- Check the MQ Open Options being specified when you try open the queue.
- Confirm that the queue is the right type for the open options specified --> you can't open a remote queue for input
- Confirm that the account has access to open the queue in this way (although I would expect a different error here)

You could also telnet to the MQ port and just validate that the server is running, but I think that would have been a different error as well.
