Error description

  • When using a DataPower SFTP Server Front-Side Handler (FSPH) and
    uploading a
    file with a .pgp extension (a binary file) and sending it to an
    MQSeries back-end, the MQ headers that were set with a
    stylesheet are over-writing the body of the message. You are
    able to see this when viewing the message on the MQ queue, via
    the MQ Explorer, or the Rfhutilc utility.
