The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Message Queue Server (MSMQ)

SYMPTOMS

When you try to read messages from a remote public queue in Microsoft Message Queuing, you may receive the following error message:
0xc00e0069 - MQ_ERROR_REMOTE_MACHINE_NOT_AVAILABLE
This issue occurs when you use path names to try to read the messages.

CAUSE

This issue occurs because Domain Name System (DNS) entries for the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the remote computer are missing or are incorrect.

WORKAROUND

To work around this issue, specify the remote public queue name directly as MachineName/QueueName.

MORE INFORMATION

For some remote Message Queuing operations to succeed when you are using public queues with path names, the FQDN of the computer that is hosting the message queue must be correctly registered in DNS. To determine whether the FQDN of the remote computer is set up correctly, try to ping the remote computer by using the FQDN.
