# Show Messages in a Queue

To display a summary list of all the iProcess messages that are currently in a queue, use the following command:

`swadm show_messages` `queue_id``|ALL [EXP] [``-x``]`

where:

| • | `queue_id` is the unique identifier of the queue you want to view messages for. You can find a queue’s identifier using the `show_queues` command. Enter ALL to show the messages in all queues.

| • | `EXP` is an optional parameter used with Oracle databases only. Use it to show all the Oracle exception messages. If this parameter is not specified, when show_messages is used on an Oracle system, it will list only normal messages. But, with other types of database, it will show all the messages.

| • | `-x` is an optional parameter that changes the format in which messages are displayed. If this parameter is specified, one message is displayed per line and fields in the message are separated by '|' characters.

The following example (for Windows/SQL Server) lists all the messages in the DEADQUEUE queue. (The `show_queues` command is used first to identify the `DEADQUEUE`’s `queue_id`, which is `5`.) In this case the DEADQUEUE contains just a single RELEASE instruction that has failed to be processed.

`swadm_show_queues`
Queue ID | Queue Name | Queue Type | Queue Desc
1 | BGMBOX1 | Local | 0003:swpro.sw_db_bgqueue_1
2 | BGMBOX2 | Local | 0003:swpro.sw_db_bgqueue_2
3 | WISMBOX1 | Local | 0003:swpro.sw_db_wisqueue_1
4 | WISMBOX2 | Local | 0003:swpro.sw_db_wisqueue_2
5 | DEADQUEUE | Local | 0003:swpro.sw_db_deadqueue
`swadm show_messages 5`
Queue ID | 5 Message ID: Instruction: Addressee: Procedure: Step Name: Case Number: Req ID: Failed Count: Failed By: | 291E84BA-A898-4D6A-A812-A76BE108B21D RELEASE pro TESTBW2 STEP1 1253 2504 0 BG

The following command displays the same messages in the alternative format:

`swadm show_messages 5 -x` | 5|291E84BA-A898-4D6A-A812-A76BE108B21D|RELEASE|pro|TESTBW2|STEP1|1253|2504|0|BG
