Hi, I am relatively new to JMS and have been looking to migrate our current JBossMQ implementation of JMS to ActiveMQ and at the same time move from using JBoss 3.2.3 to JBoss 4.0.4.
Our product is deployed over two servers whereby MDBs deployed on server1 will write to queues located on server2 which server2 will then read from. Server2 also writes to queues located on itself that server1 will read from. Finally server1 also has some local queues that it writes to and reads from (accessed by server1 only). This above-mentioned setup is working perfectly fine with the JBossMQ implementation of JMS and the only reason why we are migrating to ActiveMQ is because JBossMQ doesnt support indexing on message selectors (i.e. when a queue that has multiple receivers, which receive messages based on a msg selector, grows large with messages that dont match a particular receiver, performance degrades significantly). Now the question I'm asking is a newbie one in relation to MDBs reading from remote JMS queues. It was my understanding that to achieve this one would have to follow something similar to: http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=HowDoIConfigureAnMDBToTalkToARemoteQueue Which is pretty much identical to the way we have set up with JBossMQ. But when it comes to ActiveMQ I couldnt find any samples that show me how to do this (the ActiveMQ Jboss Integration Guide seems to take a different approach thats not for remote queue access). Does this mean there is another way to do it? (btw, I will also post this on the ActiveMQ forums but wanted to get an idea from the Jboss community as to whether there are better/different ways of doing this) I will appreciate any guidance (even RTFM advice but with references please). Like what should I read first, and what comes next, etc... because at the moment there seems to be loads of information that I cant make much sense of in terms what links with what. Thanks, cosjav P.S the attempts I have made so far are shown below: I changed the server1 JMSProviderLoader (contained in a file named jms-providers-service.xml in deploy/jms) details from: <server> | <!-- | JMS Providers to access server2 queues | --> | <mbean code="org.jboss.jms.jndi.JMSProviderLoader" | name="jboss.mq:service=JMSProviderLoader,name=RemoteJBossMQProvider_server2"> | <attribute name="ProviderName">RemoteJMSProvider_server2</attribute> | <attribute name="ProviderUrl">jnp://server2:1099</attribute> | <attribute name="ProviderAdapterClass">org.jboss.jms.jndi.JBossMQProvider</attribute> | <attribute name="QueueFactoryRef">UIL2XAConnectionFactory</attribute> | <attribute name="TopicFactoryRef">UIL2XAConnectionFactory</attribute> | </mbean> | | </server> to <server> | <!-- | JMS Providers to access server2 queues | --> | <mbean code="org.jboss.jms.jndi.JMSProviderLoader" | name="jboss.mq:service=JMSProviderLoader,name=RemoteActiveMQProvider_server2,server=server2"> | <attribute name="ProviderName">RemoteJMSProvider_indium</attribute> | <attribute name="ProviderAdapterClass">org.jboss.jms.jndi.JNDIProviderAdapter</attribute> | <!--<attribute name="QueueFactoryRef">ConnectionFactory</attribute>--> | <attribute name="QueueFactoryRef">ActiveMQConnectionFactory</attribute> | <attribute name="TopicFactoryRef">ActiveMQConnectionFactory</attribute> | <attribute name="Properties"> | java.naming.factory.initial=org.apache.activemq.jndi.ActiveMQInitialContextFactory | java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jnp.interfaces | java.naming.provider.url=server2:1099 | </attribute> | </mbean> | </server> | (I think I have set the connection factory incorrectly above because I'm getting exceptions saying "javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: ActiveMQConnectionFactory") Then I changed jms-ds.xml (in deploy/jms) on server1 from: <tx-connection-factory> | <jndi-name>RemoteJmsXA_server2</jndi-name> | <xa-transaction/> | <track-connection-by-tx>true</track-connection-by-tx> | <adapter-display-name>JMS Adapter</adapter-display-name> | <config-property name="JmsProviderAdapterJNDI" type="java.lang.String">java:/RemoteJMSProvider_server2</config-property> | <config-property name="SessionDefaultType" type="java.lang.String">javax.jms.Queue</config-property> | <security-domain-and-application>RemoteJmsXA_server2_Realm</security-domain-and-application> | <max-pool-size>100</max-pool-size> | </tx-connection-factory> | to <tx-connection-factory> | <jndi-name>RemoteJmsXA_server2</jndi-name> | <xa-transaction/> | <track-connection-by-tx/> | <adapter-display-name>JMS Adapter</adapter-display-name> | <config-property name="JmsProviderAdapterJNDI" type="java.lang.String">java:/RemoteJMSProvider_server2</config-property> | <config-property name="SessionDefaultType" type="java.lang.String">javax.jms.Queue</config-property> | <security-domain-and-application>RemoteJmsXA_server2_Realm</security-domain-and-application> | <max-pool-size>100</max-pool-size> | <rar-name>activemq-ra-4.0.1.rar</rar-name> | <connection-definition>javax.jms.QueueConnectionFactory</connection-definition> | </tx-connection-factory> | (this was changed based on the ActiveMQ sample) Finally I changed a the queue definitons from: <mbean code="org.jboss.mq.server.jmx.Queue" | name="jboss.mq.destination:service=Queue,name=queue1"> | <depends optional-attribute-name="DestinationManager">jboss.mq:service=DestinationManager</depends> | </mbean> to <mbean code="org.jboss.resource.deployment.AdminObject" name="activemq.queue:name=queue1"> | <attribute name="JNDIName">queue/queue1</attribute> | | <depends optional-attribute-name="RARName">jboss.jca:service=RARDeployment,name='activemq-ra-4.0.1.rar'</depends> | <attribute name="Type">javax.jms.Queue</attribute> | <attribute name="Properties">PhysicalName=queue.queue1</attribute> | </mbean> | I fiddled around with some other configs too but it'll make my post too long if I show all those... I'm clearly missing a link somewhere because after all these changes I am getting: java.lang.ClassCastException | at org.jboss.mq.SpyQueueReceiver.<init>(SpyQueueReceiver.java:42) | at org.jboss.mq.SpySession.createReceiver(SpySession.java:689) | whenever I try to create a receiver (and I think its the same for creating a sender too) Thanks again...
