Yes, I am using the default kahaDB as the broker store. My tests seem to run fine if I access a broker that is running on my PC, and I specify the prioritizedMessages="true" policy using the queue name instead of the ">" wildcard. However, they frequently encounter trouble when the broker is running on a UNIX box. More frequently on our UNIX boxes that run HP-UX and Linux.
I just installed a local copy of the 05Feb snapshot of 5.8 on a box running HP-UX 11.31, and it failed on the twentieth iteration of the aforementioned test. I was thinking that most of my problems where being caused by having the persistence store on a network drive. While I see more trouble when it is on a network drive, recent tests are still failing frequently even when the store is local to the UNIX machine. The results from my tests against the 05Feb snapshot of 5.8 on a UNIX machine fail due to messages not being available but should have been. For some reason, they appear to be expiring. Here is an excerpt from the 5.8.0 log: ... ...snip... 2013-02-05 22:46:10,041 | DEBUG | queue://testq expiring messages .. | org.apache.activemq.broker.region.Queue | ActiveMQ Broker[l ocalhost] Scheduler 2013-02-05 22:46:10,041 | DEBUG | testq toPageIn: 13, Inflight: 0, pagedInMessages.size 0, enqueueCount: 104, dequeueCount: 91 | o rg.apache.activemq.broker.region.Queue | ActiveMQ Broker[localhost] Scheduler 2013-02-05 22:46:10,042 | DEBUG | queue://testq expiring messages done. | org.apache.activemq.broker.region.Queue | ActiveMQ Broke r[localhost] Scheduler 2013-02-05 22:46:10,052 | DEBUG | testq toPageIn: 0, Inflight: 0, pagedInMessages.size 13, enqueueCount: 104, dequeueCount: 91 | o rg.apache.activemq.broker.region.Queue | ActiveMQ BrokerService[localhost] Task-1 2013-02-05 22:46:10,101 | DEBUG | Checkpoint started. | org.apache.activemq.store.kahadb.MessageDatabase | ActiveMQ Journal Checkp oint Worker 2013-02-05 22:46:10,111 | DEBUG | queue://testq expiring messages .. | org.apache.activemq.broker.region.Queue | ActiveMQ Broker[l ocalhost] Scheduler 2013-02-05 22:46:10,111 | DEBUG | testq toPageIn: 0, Inflight: 0, pagedInMessages.size 13, enqueueCount: 104, dequeueCount: 91 | o rg.apache.activemq.broker.region.Queue | ActiveMQ Broker[localhost] Scheduler 2013-02-05 22:46:10,111 | DEBUG | queue://testq expiring messages done. | org.apache.activemq.broker.region.Queue | ActiveMQ Broke r[localhost] Scheduler 2013-02-05 22:46:10,111 | DEBUG | testq toPageIn: 0, Inflight: 0, pagedInMessages.size 13, enqueueCount: 104, dequeueCount: 91 | o rg.apache.activemq.broker.region.Queue | ActiveMQ BrokerService[localhost] Task-1 2013-02-05 22:46:10,202 | DEBUG | Checkpoint done. | org.apache.activemq.store.kahadb.MessageDatabase | ActiveMQ Journal Checkpoin t Worker 2013-02-05 22:46:11,822 | DEBUG | created SCEP@18bff68{l(/10.24.8.124:58682)<->r(/10.24.8.124:8161),d=false,open=true,ishut=false, oshut=false,rb=false,wb=false,w=true,i=0}-{AsyncHttpConnection@2d2da4,g=HttpGenerator{s=0,h=-1,b=-1,c=-1},p=HttpParser{s=-14,l=0,c =0},r=0} | org.eclipse.jetty.io.nio | qtp3916193-28 Selector0 2013-02-05 22:46:11,823 | DEBUG | filled 294/294 | org.eclipse.jetty.http.HttpParser | qtp3916193-24 2013-02-05 22:46:11,823 | DEBUG | REQUEST /api/message on AsyncHttpConnection@2d2da4,g=HttpGenerator{s=0,h=-1,b=-1,c=-1},p=HttpPar ser{s=-5,l=5,c=0},r=1 | org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server | qtp3916193-24 -
