Problems when deploying message flows

  1. To debug problems when deploying, you need to check the logs:
    1. The broker domain Event Log.
    2. The local error log (the Windows Event log or the syslog).
    3. WebSphere MQ logs.

    These logs might be on separate computers, and must be used in conjunction with the workbench output to ensure that the deployment was successful.

    Use the mqsilist command to check that the deployment was successful, or look in the Windows Event or broker domain Event Log.

  2. Use this checklist when you have deployment problems:
    1. Make sure that the remote queue manager is running.
    2. Make sure that channels are running.
    3. Display the channel status to see if the number of system messages sent increases.
    4. Check the channel from the remote end.
    5. Check the queue manager name.
    6. Determine whether the channel is a cluster channel.

Migrated message flows are not available to add to a broker archive file

You cannot drag and drop a broker archive file to a broker

The compiled message flow (.cmf) file has not been generated

The message flow deploys on the test system, but not elsewhere

Your deploy indicates that the broker does not exist

The Configuration Manager is trying to deploy to a broker that does not exist

The Configuration Manager reports that it is out of memory

The Run On Server dialog has no indication that a deploy was attempted

Your deploy generates BIP error messages

See each explanation below of error messages that might be generated during a deployment.
