Not working us if port is different to default in zOS about mq-metric-samples HOT 6 CLOSED

The AMQ message is coming from the setmqenv call in the script - it's trying to set up LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc but the queue manager is not a local one so it fails. I will probably do something to mask that particular error, but you'd get a more serious problem if the MQ libraries could not then be found.

So you ARE connecting to the qmgr. Because otherwise you wouldn't have got a 2033 which can only come after opening a queue. But I can't tell why that is happening. Perhaps turning on the info or debug levels of logging would show more.

Thank you Mark for your response:
We set the log level to debug, but the output messages not help us:
AMQ7048: The queue manager name is either not valid or not known.

If there are messages in the DLQ, then the important field is going to be the reason code that shows why they were put there,

The messages in the dead letter queue are these, we can not identify what causes them:

That is clearly showing the reason code in the DLH is 2035 (0x7F3) - MQRC_NOT_AUTHORIZED. Looks like the response to the command (which itself has also failed with 2035) cannot be put back to the TDQ.

The JES logs might show what RACF profiles are failing.

Hi Mark:
We found the problem, it was the same with the mcauser. I was arriving with the user mqm and in RACF said user did not exist. An existing mcauser was fixed in RACF and it worked correctly.

Thank you.
