    RST could fail at retrieving JMS or MQ response messages of
    String type if the Text Message option is selected in the
    protocol configuration.
    
    This could cause an exception like the following:

    which would be logged in the Error Log or in the Test Logs.
    Also, as a result, the received messages would be ignored.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The JMS/MQ layer had an issue in the case where JMS/MQ text
    messages were received. The root cause of the exception was
    that a byte message was expected in all the cases causing an
    exception to be generated in the case of a string object.
