Simple java program gets RC=2009 connecting to remote Queue Manager

Question

I am writing a simple java program to connect to remote WebSphere MQ Queue Manager but its showing the error: MQJE001: Completion Code '2', Reason '2009'

Yet when I connect using WMQ Explorer, its getting connected and I am able to see the messages in the queue there. Kindly help. My code is:

        public void init(){

     props.put(MQC.HOST_NAME_PROPERTY, "sailmq3d.pok.ibm.com");
     props.put(MQC.CHANNEL_PROPERTY, "PLM.SECURE.SVRCONN");
     props.put(MQC.PORT_PROPERTY, 1423); // port number
     props.put(MQC.TRANSPORT_PROPERTY, MQC.TRANSPORT_MQSERIES);
     }

       public void start(){
   try {
  // Create a connection to the queue manager
qMgr = new MQQueueManager("PLMESB_SBMD2",props);

What does the channel definition for PLM.SECURE.SVRCONN look like? Does "secure" mean it is SSL-enabled? Is it the same channel that WMQ Explorer uses? — T.Rob
its the simple connection used to connect to remote MQ Queue Manager and with the same channel i am able to connect in MQExplorer — Kullu

Wow, this is kinda cool - for once I can actually see the QMgr from the SO posted question!

The PLM.SECURE.SVRCONN channel definition looks like this:

AMQ8414: Display Channel details.
   CHANNEL(PLM.SECURE.SVRCONN)             CHLTYPE(SVRCONN)
   ALTDATE(2011-01-30)                     ALTTIME(15.02.56)
   COMPHDR(NONE)                           COMPMSG(NONE)
   DESCR( )                                HBINT(300)
   KAINT(AUTO)                             MAXINST(999999999)
   MAXINSTC(999999999)                     MAXMSGL(4194304)
   MCAUSER(nobody)                         MONCHL(QMGR)
   RCVDATA( )                              RCVEXIT( )
   SCYDATA( )
   SCYEXIT(/var/mqm/exits64/PLMESB_SBMD2/ESBSecurityExit(ChannelExit))
   SENDDATA( )                             SENDEXIT( )
   SHARECNV(10)                            SSLCAUTH(REQUIRED)
   SSLCIPH( )                              SSLPEER( )
   TRPTYPE(TCP)

Given that there is a custom security exit on that channel, it's not possible to say why you receive a 2009 return code. Probably the best bet is to look at the security exit logs.

The connection through WMQ Explorer is probably using SYSTEM.ADMIN.SVRCONN which has no exit.

I see that there is also a CLNTCONN defined for that channel and it requires a client-side exit. If your Java client uses a Client Conn Definition Table (CCDT) then this would further complicate matters. The fact that the CLNTCONN exists and lists a client-side exit suggests that PLM.SECURE.SVRCONN won't work without that client-side exit.
