Is there a tool to read Message Queue trace files generated using the mqtrace command line utility?

Question

We capture Microsoft Message Queue (MSMQ) trace files for troubleshooting and diagnosis of MSMQ related issues.

Usually this involves capturing MSMQ traces using the mqtrace command line utility.

• Run “mqtrace -start -info”
• When any issue happens related to MSMQ, run “mqtrace -stop” to stop MSMQ tracing.

The traces captured are saved under C:\Windows\Debug and the file extension of the trace file is *.bin (for example - msmqlog.bin)

Is there a tool that can help us read this trace file? This is to avoid situations

Hello Bora, Paul

As far as I know, there isn't a dedicated Microsoft tool specifically designed to read MSMQ trace files.
