Possible errors when configuring the Redistributable MFT Agent

Error messages when we are configuring the Redistributable Managed File Transfer Agent


Native library for Windows could not be loaded

We must install the following Microsoft libraries on the system to use the Redistributable Managed File Transfer Agent:

  • Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2008
  • Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2012

These libraries are available from Microsoft. See The latest supported Visual C++ downloads. If these libraries are not installed and you try to run MFT commands, an error is reported: 

  • BFGUB0070E: Internal error: Native library for platform Windows 7 (architecture
amd64) could not be loaded because mqmft (Not found in java.library.path).
  • BFGCL0043I: Specify the '-h' command line parameter to see more usage information.

Check that the Microsoft libraries are installed. If the libraries are not installed, install them and run the command again.


Use of bindings mode is not supported

The Redistributable Managed File Transfer Agent can only connect to IBM MQ in client mode. If you try run commands in bindings mode, an error is reported: 

  • BFGCL0408E: Unable to obtain IBM MQ installation information for queue manager 'queue manager name'. 
Reason Cannot run program "../bin/dspmq": error=2, No such file or directory

When we are issuing commands, we must provide the queue manager host, port, name, and channel name. Parent topic: MFT general troubleshooting
