Message Queue adapter notifies failure using error information in the following cases:

• When timeout occurs in the message reception reponse monitoring time for the request to receive messages
• When a message does not exist in the reception queue for a request to browse and receive a message

The following table lists and describes each setting value of the error information:

Table 7-77 TableError information set by the Message Queue adapter

Element name	Form	Setting value	Description
faultCode	String	Server	Communication errors are errors at server side.
faultString	String	<Message text of message output by Message Queue adapter>	For details, see "2.12 Messages from KDEH20000 to KDEH30999" in "Service Platform Messages".
faultActor	String	<Service adapter name>	The name of the service adapter where error information is notified.
faultDetail	Document(XML)	Code:1 Message:"timeout"	When timeout occurs in monitoring time of received message or when received message does not exist.

The following are the points to be considered before setting Message Queue adapter. Confirm that there is no problem when the system operates. If there is a problem then eliminate the cause of this problem.

• Message Queue adapter executes the connection release process for each request from the business process but, actually the connection between the resource adapter and WebSphere MQ is not disabled using the connection pool functionality of the resource adapter for a fixed period of time (5 minutes by default).
  Depends on specification in Connector property file (Not disconnected in default)
  
• When connection release of a Message Queue adapter fails, status of connection changes to "Released", but in some cases release of the connection is not detected in JMS provider system of connection destination. Due to this, there is a possibility that connection status may become inconsistent, and the next communication process may fail. Therefore, once initialize the established status of the connection in the connection destination JMS provider system.
• If failure occurs during Message Queue adapter operations and the stop process is not executed normally, in some cases the release of connection in the connection destination JMS provider system is not detected. Therefore, once initialize the established status of connection destination JMS provider system.
• Specify the request message with a value of one or more bytes. Error occurs if you specify 0 in the length of the request message.
• The user message in XML format which can be sent and received by the Message Queue adapter is as per the specification of XML Processor. For details, see support range of XML Processor in "XML Processor User's Guide".
• Specify the transaction support level provided in the resource adapter as "LocalTransaction" or "XATransaction". However, you can specify "LocalTransaction" only when the status in business process is not persistent. You cannot specify "NoTransaction".
  JTA user specification is affected since "LocalTransaction" and "XATransaction" specification is related to JTA (Java Transaction API). For example, when the monitoring time of the JTA message reception is less than the monitoring time (receive_timeout) of reception responseof the message of the Message Queue adapter communication-configuration definition file, timeout occurs in the monitoring time of JTA message reception.
  

This section explains actions to be taken when message sending, message receiving, and requests to browse, receive a message or send and receive a message fails.

When message sending, message receiving, and requests to browse, receive a message or send and receive a message fail, you can re-execute the business process or continue execution from a point at which any of these processes have failed. Select actions to be taken according to operating format.

Note that, when you re-execute a business process, take action after you return to a status prior to the failed request publication which includes status of transmission queue and reception queue, and the status of the partner system.

(a) Actions to be taken when message sending fails.

When a request to send message fails, check the message log and confirm whether message KDEH30111-E is output. As per result, cause and actions differ as shown in following table:

Validation result	Cause	Action
When KDEH30111-E is output	Message sending has failed	Reference the message output just before KDEH30111-E message, eliminate the cause of problem, and re-execute request for message sending. If you want check user data when message sending fails, see data trace.
When KDEH30111-E is not output	In some cases message sending is successful.	Check that message is stored in transmission queue.

(b) Actions to be taken when message reception or a request to browse and receive a message fails

When reception of message or a request to browse and receive a message fails, check the message log and confirm that KDEH30113-E message is output. As per result, cause and actions differ as shown in following table:

Validation result	Cause	Action
When KDEH30113-E is output	Message is removed from the reception queue	Reference the data trace and acquire the message. Confirm that the message received from the reception queue does not exist. For a request to browse and receive message, you need not check the reception queue.
When KDEH message is not output when KDEH30113-E message is not output and	Message is removed from the reception queue	Reference the data trace and acquire the message. Confirm that the message received from reception queue does not exist. For a request to browse and receive message you need not confirm reception queue. In this case, you need to set data trace level to 20.
When KDEH30113-E is not output.	Message receiving has failed	Confirm that KDEH30111-E is output. Reference the message output just before KDEH30111-E message, eliminate the cause of failure in message receiving, and re-execute the request to receive a message.
When KDEH30103-W is output	Message does not exist in reception queue.	Re-execute the request to receive a message according to operation status.

(c) Actions to be taken when send and receive of message fails

When send and receive of message fails, the causes and actions to be taken for failure in message sending and receiving are as follows:

• When message sending fails
  When a request to send message fails, check message log and confirm that KDEH30111-E message is output. As per the result, cause and actions differ as shown in following table:
  

  Validity result	Cause	Action
  When KDEH30111-E is output and the communication type is send	When message sending has failed	Reference the message that is output just before the KDEH30111-E message, eliminate the cause, and re-execute the request to send the message. If you want to check the user data when message sending fails, see the data trace.

• When receiving of message fails
  When the request to receive a message fails, check the message log and confirm that KDEH30113-E message is output. As per the result, cause and actions differ as shown in following table:
  

  Validation Result	Cause	Action
  When KDEH30113-E is output	Message sending is successful, and the message is removed from reception queue	Reference the data trace and acquire the receive message, and confirm that the message received from the reception queue does not exist.
  When KDEH message is not output when KDEH30113-E is not output	Message sending is successful and message is removed from the reception queue	Reference the data trace and acquire the receive message, and confirm that the message received from reception queue does not exist. In this case, you must set data trace level as 20.
  When KDEH30113-E is not output	When message sending is successful but message receiving has failed	KDEH30111-E is output, check that communication type is received. Eliminate the cause of failure in message receiving, execute a request to send and receive message, or execute a request to receive a message according to the operating format.
  When KDEH30103-W is output	Message does not exist in reception queue. Message sending is successful.	Re-execute request to receive the message according to operation status.
