Some cases where the MQGET call fails

 

---

If certain attributes of a queue are changed using the FORCE option on a command between issuing an MQOPEN and an MQGET call, the MQGET call fails and returns the MQRC_OBJECT_CHANGED reason code. The queue manager marks the object handle as being no longer valid. This also happens if the changes apply to any queue to which the queue name resolves. The attributes that affect the handle in this way are listed in the description of the MQOPEN call in WebSphere MQ Application Programming Reference. If your call returns the MQRC_OBJECT_CHANGED reason code, close the queue, reopen it, then try to get a message again.

If get operations are inhibited for a queue from which you are attempting to get messages (or any queue to which the queue name resolves), the MQGET call fails and returns the MQRC_GET_INHIBITED reason code. This happens even if you are using the MQGET call for browsing. You may be able to get a message successfully if you attempt the MQGET call at a later time, if the design of the application is such that other programs change the attributes of queues regularly.

If a dynamic queue (either temporary or permanent) has been deleted, MQGET calls using a previously acquired object handle fail and return the MQRC_Q_DELETED reason code.
