Error description

• transportPropagationConfig can be set with a security ID
  against which the actual username and password is stored using
  mqsisetdbparms. Its seen that, in 11.0.0.6, ACE fails to
  retrieve the username and password for it to be propagated out
  when a Security profile, with a valid
  transportPropagationConfig value, is configured on SOAPRequest
  node . If you use policy set and bindings on the SOAP request
  node along with the security profile, you might hit the
  following exception
  
  CWWSS6521E: The Login failed because of an exception:
  javax.security.auth.login.LoginException:
