2142 (085E) (RC2142): MQRC_HEADER_ERROR


Explanation

An MQPUT or MQPUT1 call was issued, but the message data contains an MQ header structure that is not valid. Possible errors include the following:

  • The StrucId field is not valid.
  • The Version field is not valid.
  • The StrucLength field specifies a value that is too small.
  • The CodedCharSetId field is zero, or a negative value that is not valid.
  • The BufferLength parameter of the call has a value that is too small to accommodate the structure (the structure extends beyond the end of the message).


Completion code

MQCC_FAILED


Programmer response

Check that the fields in the structure are set correctly. Ensure that the application sets the CodedCharSetId field to a valid value (note: MQCCSI_DEFAULT, MQCCSI_EMBEDDED, MQCCSI_Q_MGR, and MQCCSI_UNDEFINED are not valid in this field).
