Early errors

 

There are a number of special cases where these error logs have not yet been established and an error occurs. WebSphere MQ attempts to record any such errors in an error log. The location of the log depends on how much of a queue manager has been established.

If, because of a corrupt configuration file for example, no location information can be determined, errors are logged to an errors directory that is created at installation time on the root directory (/var/mqm or C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ).

If WebSphere MQ can read its configuration information, and can access the value for the Default Prefix, errors are logged in the errors subdirectory of the directory identified by the Default Prefix attribute. For example, if the default prefix is C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ, errors are logged in C:\\IBM\WebSphere MQ\errors.

For further information about configuration files, see Configuring WebSphere MQ.

Errors in the Windows Registry are notified by messages when a queue manager is started.
