IBM WebSphere MQ Triggering issue

Question

I'm trying to achieve following scenario When a new message arrives to queue manager it should automatically trigger my console application. Then it will fetch that message and write the message in to a file. I already completed this part. But I'm having problem with triggering message queue

Here is how I configured my message queue

I created two queues one is called LocalQueue and other one is InitQueue which is SYSTEM.DEFAULT.INITIATION.QUEUE.

and set "Trigger" properties in my LocalQueue

Then Created trigger monitor

In process definition object I set my console application path

So my problem is, It doesn't work as it expect and I checked my client machine C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\WebSphere MQ\errors\AMQERR01.LOG and server machine C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\WebSphere MQ\errors log files. I couldn't find anything on them

Update Based on Morag answer I changed my process name

Answer 1

The Start Args for your trigger monitor Service object appears to be telling the trigger monitor to monitor the LocalQueue and not the InitQueue.

Answer 2

You need to make sure that the trigger monitor is running and has opened the initiation queue in INPUT(i.e. for GET) mode. Only then queue manager will put a trigger message into initiation queue. Here is what I did to get it working:

I did the setup just like you except for service. I manually started runmqtmc as

   SET MQSERVER=<channel name>/TCP/<connname>
   runmqtmc -m <qmname> -q <initq>

Put a test message on local queue. That triggered an event and my application started.

Answer 3

You appear to have named your TriggerMonitor Service object in the queue attribute where you should put the process object name FetchMessages.
