MQ objects creation using crtmqm command - ibm-mq

I have installed WebSphere MQ in my laptop and able to create MQ objects through MQ explorer.
When go to command prompt and run the crtmqm from MQ home/bin . I encountered " you are not authorised to perform this operation "
- I did installed MQ with my login and same login used to create MQ also.
- tried changing run--> services.msc and modify MQ installation permissions but no luck.

MQ CLI commands can be run by the members of the mqm group, and by the members of Administrators.
If your user account isn't a member of mqm, then you will need to start cmd with the option Run as Administrator.

Adding user to ActiveMQ Artemis fails on Windows

I'm trying to add a user to ActiveMQ Artemis on Windows. I have created an instance and started it. Then I run command:
artemis user add --user admin --password admin --user-command-user another_admin --user-command-password another_admin --role admin --url tcp://localhost:61616
The command fails with message:
The system cannot find the path specified.
The syntax of the command is incorrect.
Connection brokerURL = tcp://localhost:61616
Failed to add user another_admin. Reason: AMQ229220: Failed to load user file: /C:/Program%20Files/apache-artemis-2.26.0-instance1/etc/artemis-users.properties
How to fix?
There is a bug related to how the broker deals with spaces in the path to the user/role files. I've sent a PR to resolve the problem. The fix should be in 2.27.0.
In the mean-time you can work-around the issue by putting the broker instance on a path which has no spaces.

Ibm MQ - MQCONNX ended with reason code 2035

I'm setting an Mq server for learning purposes, which I call it QM1. So, I try aiming at the queue by typing in cmd:
amqsputc DEV.QUEUE.1 QM1
After asking for my password, it returns: MQCONNX ended with reason code 2035
I have set my local user and Win 10 group and after shuffling trhough MQ 9 documentation, here is my workaround attempts:
setmqaut -m QM1 -t qmgr -p app +connect (app is my user)
Included app tn my mqm group.
It still returns code 2035

IBM Websphere MQ Not authorised error AMQ8135

I have a dev server running IBM Websphere MQ 7.5. The issue is that users while trying to run runmqsc command getting following error :
AMQ8135: Not authorized.
No MQSC commands read.
No commands have a syntax error.
All valid MQSC commands were processed.
As I went through IBM Documentation, all user who are part of MQM group should be able to run this.
Also I found that all non-domain accounts, ie local accounts who are part of MQM group are able to run commands. But somehow domain accounts are not working, even when they are part of MQM group. I also added these accounts to domain mqm group, still no luck.
I tried running REFRESH SECURITY Command, still no luck.
If anyone can provide some insight in to this , it would be great.
And yes I am a total noob in IBM Websphere.
Not sure if this helps in your case, but i tried below steps and it worked for me.
Right click then Properties on MQSeriesServices from Services
Change the logon to "Local System Account".
Restart the service.
Note: Assuming that MQM is added to user groups.
You can try supplying user/password in the runmqsc command running runmqsc -u user1.
Cause
In this case the permissions for the runmqsc binary were not correct..
Resolving the problem
The permissions for the runmqsc binary must be:
AIX:
-r-sr-s--- 1 mqm mqm sssss MMM DD YYYY /usr/mqm/bin/runmqsc
Others:
-r-sr-s--- 1 mqm mqm sssss MMM DD YYYY /opt/mqm/bin/runmqsc
Reset the permissions of the runmqsc binary in your system to the correct value.

Why I get AMQ7077 even after turning security in WebSphere MQ off?

In Windows7 when I set MQSNOAUT=yes everything is ok and I can do whatever I want in WebSphere MQ. But in RedHat even after setting MQSNOAUT to yes I'm getting this error:

The mqm user is sudoer and the following is a part of my /etc/group file:
root:x:0:root, mqm, bin
adm:x:4:root,adm,daemon, mqm, mquser
mqm:x:500:root, mqm
mquser:x:502:mqm
... regardless all these, I think having MQSNOAUT variable that is set to yes should be enough to work with WebShpere MQ using any user. Maybe something related to RedHat caused the problem.
BTW, searching for The queue manager ended for reason 545284129, ''., I couldn't find any solution.
Any thoughts?
UPDATE
Having done chmod -R 6550 on /opt/mqm/bin, now I can start queue managers and create queue, channel, ... using IBM MQ's command line binaries. For more convenient, however, still I can't use MQ Explorer, because when I run MQExplorer I get the following error:
[mqm#RHEL6-135 bin]$ MQExplorer
No protocol specified
MQExplorer: Cannot open display:

The log/stacktrace looks like a catch-all exception handling. I didn't yet completely digged into this error but maybe it is also caused by some permission problems. For example, maybe some authorization errors are raised when MQExplorer tries to load it's components from mqm's sub-directories! However, running chmod -R 6550 on some related paths didn't solve the problem.
Setting MQSNOAUT=ANYVALUE only turns off MQ OAM if it is set at the time the queue manager is created. It results a few lines being omitted from the qm.ini file for the queue manager you create while it is set.
If OAM is turned off it means only that any user connecting to the queue manager will have full authority.
The queue manager itself on Unix still needs to run under the mqm userid.
I noted that you showed the following permissions on the crtmqm binary:
-rwxrwxrwx. 1 mqm mqm
This is not correct, the MQ install on Unix has many of the files with setuid permission because the permissions on the files that are created under /var/mqm/qmgrs, /var/mqm/log, /var/mqm/sockets are very important. From the research I did the 545284129 and 2080520F errors are related to file permissions. I would suggest you reset the permissions back to what they previously were, if you do not know then I would suggest you remove the IBM MQ software and reinstall. For reference below is the normal permissions on the crtmqm binary:
-r-sr-s--- 1 mqm mqm
Once the IBM MQ binary permissions are corrected I would suggest that you use dltmqm to delete your queue manager and ensure that nothing remains related to that queue manager name under /var/mqm/qmgrs, /var/mqm/log, /var/mqm/sockets, and in the /var/mqm/mqs.ini file.
Once it is cleaned up, create it again as the mqm user and try starting it.
I would suggest that you try not to disable security and instead set things up with proper permissions. Even if this is a development environment, it is much better to get things working with security enabled. When you develop with security disabled you end up needing to troubleshoot why things are not working later when security is turned on in a real environment.
Take a look at my answer to question "Provide anonymous access to IBM WebSphere MQ" for some more information on how to keep security enabled as well as disabling things if you want to continue down that path.

Websphere MQ server configuration

somebody can help me in configuring Websphere MQ Server in WAS 8.5?I got the below error while creating the WAS MQ Server.
Error: WebSphere MQ server MQSERVER connection test failed for WebSphere MQ queue manager MQSERVER. CWSJP0050E: An attempt to connect to WebSphere MQ queue manager or queue sharing group MQSERVER failed. The WebSphere MQ reason code is Unknown (2538)..
MQRC 2538 means "host not available". Check the host name and port name that you have specified and is pointing to the machine where MQ queue manager "MQSERVER" is running.
Check on which port your queue manager is listening. You can do that by using MQExplorer or runmqsc command shell on the machine where you queue manager is running. In a command prompt, run the following command
runmqsc MQSERVER
Once the runmqsc shell opens run the following command to list TCP listener.
dis listener(SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LISTENER.TCP)
Check the PORT number displayed. By default it will be 0. You need to change this to some port number. To change the port number run the following command.
alter listner(SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LISTENER.TCP) port(1414)
Once this is done you need to start the listener by running the following command
start listener(SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LISTENER.TCP)
After this you can attempt your tests.
