Summary: Problem: MDB stops reacting
Initial Comment:
I would like to report a potential bug.
I've made a post in Jboss forums and there was some
responses from other people supposedly experiencing
simular problems.
Below, I repeat the problem description and our current
state of researching the roots of the problem:
=====
Setup:
Our system is centered around Jboss 3.0.4+Jetty
running on AS400. In short, it handles HTTP requests :)
Current (test environment) average load on the system is
somewhere around 30 requests per minute, peak values
so far were around 200. Production systems certainly as
usual has to handle more.
The basic workflow/design of the system can be
described as follows:
- requests are picked up by the servlets
- each type of request is handled by separate servlet
(actually the same class, but different config parameters
through web.xml)
- servlet parses the request, composes an object
message and submits it to the core via request JMS
queue with one of the properties set to specific constant
reflecting the request type
- servlet goes to timed-synchronous waiting cycle on
response queue, if no response arrives from core in 10
sec, a specific (timeout) response is sent to the client
- core "interface" is a set of MDB that call the rest
(Session and Entity beans) or respond back directly
through response queue. Instances of each different
MDB class handle request messages only of a certain
type specified via message selector in descriptor.
Problem:
After a certain time (~couple of days) one (or several, no
system visible) MDBs stop responding to messages. In
the logs it is visible that message was submitted to the
queue, after that nothing happens, clients eventually
receive timeout response. If we restart Jboss or
stop/destroy/create/start the jar with MDB through JMX
console everything starts working again.
===
I've noticed that in our case problems seem to start after
the following message appears in the logs: "WARNING:
NACK issued. The message consumer was not waiting
for a message."
Also we've made some more detailed research of logs
and Jboss source. After we enable tracing here is what
we've got:

[1046964853752:TracingInterceptor] RETURN : receive
We've added some more trace statements. The
subscription was definitely added, but there is no
evidence that it is removed. So it looks like it magically
dissappears :(
I am worried about one thing - in JbossMQ
ClientConsumer source all operations on subsriptions
HashMap are done in blocks synchronized on
subscriptions object itself by making clones, operating
on them and then setting subscriptions reference to the
new object (as in the following code snippets). I am not
sure why is it done like this, and I suspect that it
actually breaks the idea of synchronization because as
it looks right after the reference is changed another
thread may acquire a lock on a new object, while the
first thread is still holding a lock on the old one. Please
take a look:
===
public void addSubscription(Subscription req) throws
JMSException
{
if( log.isTraceEnabled() )
log.trace("Adding subscription for: " + req);
req.connectionToken = connectionToken;
req.clientConsumer = this;
JMSDestination jmsdest = (JMSDestination)
server.getJMSDestination(req.destination);
if (jmsdest == null)
{
throw new JMSException("The destination " +
req.destination + " does not exist !");
}
jmsdest.addSubscriber(req);
synchronized (subscriptions)
{
HashMap subscriptionsClone = (HashMap)
subscriptions.clone();
subscriptionsClone.put(new Integer(req.subscriptionId),
req);
subscriptions = subscriptionsClone;
}
}
===
public void close()
{
boolean trace = log.isTraceEnabled();
if( trace )
log.trace("" + this +"->close()");
synchronized (messages)
{
closed = true;
if (enqueued)
{
if( trace )
log.trace("" + this +"->close(): Cancelling work in
progress.");
threadPool.cancelWork(this);
enqueued = false;
}
}
synchronized (subscriptions)
{
Iterator i = subscriptions.keySet().iterator();
while (i.hasNext())
{
Integer subscriptionId = (Integer) i.next();
try
{
removeSubscription(subscriptionId.intValue());
}
catch(JMSException ignore)
{
}
}
}
// Nack the removed subscriptions, the connection is
gone
HashMap removedSubsClone = (HashMap) ((HashMap)
removedSubscriptions).clone();
Iterator i = removedSubsClone.values().iterator();
while (i.hasNext())
{
Subscription removed = (Subscription) i.next();
JMSDestination queue = (JMSDestination)
server.getJMSDestination(removed.destination);
if (queue == null)
log.warn("The subscription was registered with a
destination that does not exist: " + removed);
try
{
queue.nackMessages(removed);
}
catch (JMSException e)
{
log.warn("Unable to nack removed subscription: " +
removed, e);
}
}
}

Hi can you try this again with latest CVS either 3.0 or 3.2
I just fixed a problem in the ServerSession pool that
was causing a similar problem with MQSeries
as the jms provider.

Adrian

Hi Eduard,
I had a quick look at your logs over the weekend but
I didn't come to any conclusion.
I have a suspicion that are there are two problems
that maybe related?
1) The Nack when not waiting for a message in the
temporary reply queue.
2) The MDB not receiving any messages.
If it is a deadlock you should be able to get a
thread dump on windows using a ctrl-break.
If you are using java 1.3 start jboss with -Xdebug
so you can see what is locked.
The logs you included did not include the full trace.
information. Do you have the trace nterceptor
configured in jbossmq-service.xml?
Can you run it with it with TRACE enabled for
org.jboss.mq
but use INFO for the very noisy
org.jboss.mq.server.MessageCache
org.jboss.mq.server.MessageReference
For the mdb you will also want to include
org.jboss.jms
org.jboss.ejb.plugins.jms
Also the class org.jboss.mq.MessageConsumer
which is where the NACK occurs doesn't have much
TRACE logging.
You might want to add some, in particular the
changes for field waitingForMessage
Regards,
Adrian

Adrian,
we have the same problem with Jboss 3.2.1 on Windows,
looks like a thread deadlock or something. Silly question, but
would thread dumps, trace logs help?

Ok, upload failed. I am putting the logs and deployment
descriptors on our ftp server.

Thank you, Adrian. I was thinking about this as well after I've
seen your answer to some other bug. I will try it today.
Attached are the server and trace logs. Jboss was just
started. It has began answering requests with several MDBs
(you can search for thread signatures 1050489832192,
1050489845715, 1050489880169, 1050489913857,
1050489922977, 1050489948331, 1050489976720,
1050490009021 to see it).
Then a request came for GetAssignmentPuts (see
1050490010994, 1050490048469, 1050490082657,
1050480116032) that should have invoked
GetAssignmentPutsMDB but never did.

Yes, attach the trace logs. Preferably the relevent part
where it goes offline and a bit before.
Is it possible for you test this with jboss3.0.7?
There have been a number of fixes since 3.0.4
that could be relevent.
One was a fix where the subscription ids were
not being generated uniquely.
Another was a fix to the message consumer where
it could stall if it nacked a message that had passed
its time to live.
Another was to update to the latest concurrent.jar

Adrian

Adrian,
I have applied the patch, and deployed it as the customer's
but unfortunately it haven't solved the main problem. MDB
goes "offline" almoust everyday, and sometimes right from
the start of the server.
Please, can you at least direct me where to look next?
BTW. I do have the trace logs, should I attach them here?

I've changed the ClientConsumer to not clone
the subscriptions, except when iterating at close to avoid
concurrent modification exceptions.
The semantics of this synchronization are wrong.
There are two other locations in the code doing a
similar thing. The changes for these are still outstanding
so I haven't closed this bug report yet.
SpySession and consumers
JMSDestinationManager and destinations

Adrian
