AMQP channel log files

The log files for AMQP channels are stored in the same IBM® MQ data directory as IBM MQ log files.

The default data directory on Windows is C:\ProgramData\IBM\MQ.

The default data directory on Linux® is /var/mqm.

The AMQP channel writes log information to the following log files, found in the IBM MQ data directory:
  • amqp.stdout, written to the qmgrs/QM-name folder.
  • amqp.stderr, written to the qmgrs/QM-name folder.
  • amqp_*.log , written to the qmgrs/QM-name/errors folder.

If an MQ Light client receives an authentication or authorization error, your administrator can find detailed information about the reason for the security failure in the amqp_0.log file and the MQ AMQERR*.log files.

Any FDC files are created as AMQP*.FDC files, which are written to the data-directory/errors folder.

Some configuration files are written to the qmgrs/QM-name/amqp directory. You do not need to edit any of the files in this directory.
