APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Unable to connect to local queue manager with AzureAD domain
user account.

An AzureAD domain user (in the mqm group) executing runmqsc.exe
results in "AMQ8135: Not authorized." message at command prompt.

FFST files are produced with Errorcode: MQRC_NOT_AUTHORIZED and
(for example) ProbeID: PU821050 with
MQM Function Stack:
fcxControlProcessMain
fmxInitialize
fmiSubscribeStreams
fmiMakeStreamSupportedSubscription

Queue manager error logs show AMQ8075 errors with the text:
"AMQ8075: Authorization failed because the SID for entity
'<first 12 characters of username>' cannot
be obtained."

Local fix

  • Use a locally-defined account to connect to the queue manager

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
A programming error caused the AzureAD user's SID to be
corrupted whilst stored in memory and passed between MQ
