APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
On Windows, the credentials set using mqsisetdbparms command may never be used if the following conditions are met 1. The user runs mqsisetdbparms where the resource type is a known credential type (https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/app-connect/ 12.0?topic=commands-mqsicredentials-command) 2. One or more characters of the resource type are in upper case. In the reported issue, the customer had created the dbparms as below mqsisetdbparms NODE -n 'TrustStore::truststorePass' -u 'ignore' -p 'password' The prefix TrustStore is a known credential type but T&S are in upper case, When the TrustStore::truststorePass is set as truststorePass under ComIbmJVMManager, it caused a failure in loading the trust store as the password was never retrieved correctly. The same configuration worked on Linux.
Local fix
Use the resource type as an unknown credential type(eg: ESB::truststorePass) while creating the dbparms on windows or use everything in lowercase.

The user runs mqsisetdbparms where the resource type is a known credential type (https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/app-connect/12.0?topic=commands-mqs icredentials-command) 2. One or more characters of the resource type are in upper case. Example : The prefix TrustStore is a known credential type but T&S are in upper case. Hence, when 'TrustStore::truststorePass' is set as truststorePass under ComIbmJVMManager, it would cause a failure in loading the truststore as the password may never be retrieved correctly.
