Environment

gateway 11.1

Resolution

The problem is related to the IBM jar files installed on the gateway for WebSphere MQ support 

Install the JMS Interface

The current version does not support JAVA 17 which is included with gateway 11.1 /

See the following topic on the IBM website about java 17 support
