Issue/Introduction

How to enable debug level log for TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Plug-in for WebSphere MQ in BW 5.x

Resolution

To enable the MQ client trace use following steps:

1. Download attached client trace config file wmqtraceconfig.txt and put the file on the machine where BW application/Designer is running, for example w:/mq/wmqtraceconfig.txt
2. Edit above config file for the MQ client log location parts. Diagnostics.Java.Trace.Destination.Pathname=w:\\mq\\trace # # Directory for First Failure Data Capture # Diagnostics.Java.FFDC.Destination.Pathname=w:\\mq\\ffdc # # Directory for error logging # Diagnostics.Java.Errors.Destination.Filename=w:\\mq\\errorsdir\\ERRORS.LOG
3. Add below line to BW MQ application/Designer tra file. It tells the application/Designer where to read the client trace config file. java.property.com.ibm.mq.commonservices=w:/mq/wmqtraceconfig.txt

The parameters mentioned in wmqtraceconfig.txt file are explained at: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSFKSJ_7.5.0/com.ibm.mq.tro.doc/q039750_.htm

Note that the Diagnostics.Java.Trace.Destination.Pathname specifies the file to append trace data to. Trace detail with tracing set to “high” can be very large, be sure you have this disk space available.
