Re: MSMQ on PPC 2003 emulator

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Thanks for the link; I'd previously only managed connections to our intranet,
rather than the outside world.

I'm still unable to access remote MSMQ queues, though. I have tested local
queues, and they appear to be working.

Also, I can ping the emulator by name from a command prompt, but I can't
access its queues from outside the emulator.


Thanks,

Adam

So far, I've been unable to locate a single CAB file for MSMQ
installation.

From MSDN downloads, I've installed

Microsoft Pocket PC 2003 SDK.msi
MobileAppDevToolkit.exe
Optional Windows Mobile 5.0 Server Components.exe
Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK.msi
Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition Developer Resources.msi

The only one of these that installed an MSMQ installation CAB was the WM 5
Server Components (msmq.ARM.CAB), but I can't use that under PPC 2003 SE
(it
reports "not a valid Windows CE Setup file"). Is there another SDK
installer
I may have missed?

I can connect to our local intranet pages via IE; that was one of the
first
things I checked.

I've not tried local messages yet, as I took the disconnected message as
an
indication something wasn't right with the MSMQ install. I'll try that
later
today, though.


Thanks,

Adam

If this is an emulator issue I'm not going to be of much help. For MSMQ,
some more background info questions:

* When you say you copy the MSMQ binaries and setup your own CAB - is
there
a reason you're not using the CAB MS provided in the redist? These are
much
better tested than 'visadm install' (though visadm install should still
work) and the MS CAB has all the required registry. One less variable at
least.
* Are you able to open a PocketIE connection to a web site someplace?
This
would tell if emulator transport is OK or no.
* If you create a private queue on the emulator, send a message to it,
can
you receive that message later? This will help narrow down if MSMQ is
working in the localhost case at least?

Hi,

I'm having difficulty getting MSMQ to work on the PPC 2003 emulator
with
VS
2005. In trying to get it to work, I've followed various guides
(mostly
republications of the same two or three on different sites), with no
luck.
Each time, although visadm looks as though everything's installed ok,
checking the status always returns "DISCONNECTED". This is happening
with
the emulator set to either DMA or TCP transport.

Steps I'm taking to install are:

* Set name of PPC device
* Copy MSMQ dlls & exes to the Windows directory
* Run Visadm
-- Install
-- Register
-- Verify
-- Reset OS

I've also tried creating a cab file that puts the files in the right
place
and sets up most of the registry settings (as per ch 8 in Pro MSMQ:
Microsoft
Message Queue Programming) with the same result.


Am I missing some vital step in the install, or could there be
something
going wrong between the emulator and my PC OS (WinXP SP2)?


Thanks in advance,

Adam
