Error description

  • WMQ Explorer plug-in is not displaying properly. After
installing plug-in for WebSphere MQ (WMQ) File Transfer Edition
(FTE) for v7.0.4.1, some of the columns disappear . The Managed
File Transfer - Current transfer Progress only shows Source
agent. No other columns.
Updating the file
com.ibm.wmqfte.explorer\filedialog_settings.xml
in the users MQ Explorer temp directory to add "Destination" and
restarting WMQ Explorer worked. But on exit, it did not
save the changes.
Moving the order of the columns did fix the problem.
Testing also showed that if this file was deleted, all
default columns showed in the WMQ Explorer for Current transfer
progress. However, the last column was deleted when exiting and
saving the XML file. If the problem occurs when viewing 7
columns, then the seventh time the xml file is loaded, it will
be empty.

Local fix

  • Disable the plug-in or change the order of the columns
and save.

Problem summary

  • When using the IBM WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition plugin for
IBM WebSphere MQ Explorer, the column for the "Current Transfer
Progress" may disappear. This will happen if the view is not
painted more than once. For example, if the WMQ Explorer is
started and then immediately exited. If any columns have been
moved, the problem will not occur.

USERS AFFECTED:
All users of the WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition plugin for
WebSphere MQ Explorer

PLATFORMS AFFECTED:
All

Problem conclusion

  • The code has been altered by ensuring that column information
will always be saved. In addition this APAR will detect the
problem if it exists prior to installation, and repair the
columns by restoring them to their default number and position.
