APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Asynchronous methods registered from .NET ( unmanaged mode )  or
    XMS C/C++ applications will hang if any WebSphere MQ API calls
    are made within the asynchronous function.  This problem happens
    only when the client mode is used for connecting to a queue
    manager.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    USERS AFFECTED:
    .NET applications running in unmanaged mode and XMS C/C++ client
    applications.  This problem is observed only when client mode is
    used to connect to the queue manager.  This problem was
    introduced in fix pack 7.0.1.3.
    
    Platforms affected:
    All Distributed (iSeries, all Unix and Windows)
    ****************************************************************
    PROBLEM SUMMARY:
    When asynchronous functions are registered through MQCB and in
    the first MQCTL(START) call, there is one lock held on a shared
    semaphore but not released.  This was causing the subsequent
    WebSphere MQ API calls within the asynchronous function to hang.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Proper locking and unlocking of the semaphore has been
    implemented so that any WebSphere MQ API calls within the
    asynchronous function will not hang.
