Checking for problems after installing

There are some optional tasks that you can use to check the installation if you believe there was a problem, or to verify installation messages after an unattended (silent) installation for example.

1. MSI nnnnn.LOG. This file is in your user Temp folder. It is an application log that contains English messages written during installation. The log includes a message indicating whether the installation was successful and complete.

   This file is created if you have set up default logging.

2. If you used the launchpad to install IBM® MQ, check MQv7_Install_YYYY-MM-DDTHH-MM-SS.log in your user Temp folder, where:

   YYYY

   This is the year that you installed IBM WebSphere® MQ 7.0

   MM

   This is the month that you installed IBM MQ, for example this would be 09 if you installed in September

   DD

   This is the day that you installed IBM MQ

   HH-MM-SS

   This is the time at which IBM MQ was installed

   You can get to your user Temp directory by entering the following command at the command prompt:

   
    cd %TEMP%
   

3. amqmjpse.txt. This file is in the IBM MQ data files folder (default C:\ProgramData\IBM\MQ ). It is an application log that contains English messages written during installation by the Prepare IBM MQ wizard.
