2248 (08C8) (RC2248): MQRC_MDE_ERROR

Explanation

An MQPUT or MQPUT1 call was issued, but the message data contains an MQMDE structure that is not valid. Possible errors include the following:
  • The StrucId field is not MQMDE_STRUC_ID.
  • The Version field is not MQMDE_VERSION_2.
  • The StrucLength field is not MQMDE_LENGTH_2.
  • 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).

This reason code occurs in the following environments: AIX®, HP-UX, z/OS®, IBM® i, Solaris, Windows, plus WebSphere® MQ clients connected to these systems.

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).
