Hello all,

Obviously I haven’t posted anything in a while now. The reason for this is, I have accepted a new job and now working in Switzerland (More info on this later).. Since I have relocated and didn’t have a project for the past 3 months, I didn’t have anything to post. I have recently started my new assignment which is a very cool one so expect to hear a lot more from me in the coming days.  So here is a small tip on changing the langauge settings..

In my case, I have a computer with Windows XP which has German language as it’s primary language. When I installed MQ Explorer it picked up German as it’s main language which is a showstopper for me. Fortunately it is very easy to change it back into English:

  • Open <InstallDir>/Eclipse SDK30/eclipse/configuration/config.ini
  • Add these two lines before eof

org.osgi.framework.language=en
osgi.nl=en_US

Reboot and there it is :)

    Hi Selim,

    don’t worry about Explorer .. I know it is now Eclipse based in 6.x and entered entire new level, but in previous version there was no default “linux/unix” management based console and it was very easy and simple to handle and manage different tasks on multiple QM’s using own runmqsc scripts or PCF messages..

    take care,

    Peter

      Hi Peter,

      You are right it is not something big to worry about. I personally don’t know all the scripts. I don’t use the Explorer but use another tool called MQJExplorer. It is java based and I’m sure it would run on linux environments as well. On the other hand, knowing you are a command line junkie so… :)
