Have you received an unexpected error message?

If your application has received an unexpected error message, consider whether the error message has originated from WebSphere MQ or from another program.

WebSphere MQ error messages

WebSphere MQ for z/OS error messages are prefixed with the letters CSQ.

If you get an unexpected WebSphere MQ error message (for example, in the console log, or the CICS log), look in the WebSphere MQ for z/OS Messages and Codes manual for an explanation.

The WebSphere MQ for z/OS Messages and Codes manual might give you enough information to resolve the problem quickly, or it might redirect you to another manual for further guidance. If we cannot deal with the message, you might have to contact the IBM support center for help.

Non-WebSphere MQ error messages

If you get an error message from another IBM program, or from the operating system, look in the messages and codes manual from the appropriate library for an explanation of what it means.

In a queue-sharing environment, look for the following error messages:

  • XES (prefixed with the letters IXL)

  • DB2 (prefixed with the letters DSN)

  • RRS (prefixed with the letters ATR)

See Message keyword for a list of the most common message prefixes.

Unexpected return codes

If your application has received an unexpected return code from WebSphere MQ, see the WebSphere MQ Application Programming Reference manual for information about how your application should deal with WebSphere MQ return codes.
