Hi Folks

We're trying to get the MQseries V5.2 to run on an HPUX 10.20 box.

We can get the queue up and running but when we start to get the
channels going, the runmqchl and runmqchi processes coredumps.

The strange thing is we have it running successfully on another HPUX
10.20 box with the same configurations (Hardware and software).

Any insight into this would be great. IBM support no longer supports
this product on HPUX 10.20 and recommends that we go with Websphere MQ
5.3 which only runs on HPUX 11.0

Regards

Also, see what you can get by running an MQ trace with "strmqtrc ..."

http://publibfp.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/amqzag05.pdf (newer doc)

You could also take a look at the output of "ipcs -a" when everything
is down and make sure that none of the MQ shared resources are sticking
around. If they are you might be able to ipcrm them (as long as you're
sure they don't belong to anything else!) before you start MQ and its
channels.

You may also be able to use tusc to see what the runmqchl and runmqchi
are having trouble with:

lsof will give you more info about the MQ processes. You could use
lsof to see if there is an MQ port that's already being used by some
other process.

You could also compare the open files for the MQ processes on the
working and non-working machines to see if you have a permissions
problem.

Tusc only runs on 11.0 and later. It does not run on 10.20, which
IIRC is the now obsolete and unsupported

OS the OP is running.

IIRC that works on _some_ 10.20's but not others, so I wouldn't depend
on it working.
