Error description
When using WMQFTE Source or Destination transfer user exits, the 'before' transfer interface returns a TransferExitResult. This object contains a code and a message. The code can only be one of two values either "proceed" or "cancel". If the user exit detects an error condition which requires it to stop the transfer it has to use the "cancel" result code. That will result in the MQ Explorer showing that the transfer was canceled (instead of ending in error). This is working as designed. . However the message that is provided as part of the TransferExitResult is not displayed. The message should be displayed so the operator will know how and why the transfer was canceled. When looking at the details in the transfer log only the message provided in the XML of the TransferExitResult is shown.
Local fix
Review the transfer log
Problem summary
The IBM WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition plugin for IBM WebSphere MQ Explorer will not show supplement information for cancelled transfers despite it being available in the transfer log. For a user exit this supplement will contain the reason the transfer was cancelled. USERS AFFECTED: Users relying on the TransferExitResult object cancel code returned from their user exit. PLATFORMS AFFECTED: All
Problem conclusion
The code has been altered to ensure that supplement data for cancelled transfers is displayed to the user in the IBM WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition WebSphere MQ Explorer plugin. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 7.0.4.2.
