Spring Integration FTP Low Level Logging - ftp

DefaultFtpSessionFactory in Spring Integration FTP provides an abstraction for the underlying client API. When we need to troubleshoot, FTP connectivity and transfer issues, is it possible to configure the logs to print lower level FTP connection details.
After enabling TRACE on org.springframework we only get the messages connected to FTP site and file transferred.

Spring Integration FTP support is fully based on that Apache commons-net.
Doesn't look like the org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient class we use in the DefaultFtpSessionFactory has some logging hooks. However it is possible to inject your own ProtocolCommandListener into this FTPClient, e.g. a PrintCommandListener: Enable logging in Apache Commons Net for FTP protocol.
The DefaultFtpSessionFactory should be overridden in this case and such a addProtocolCommandListener() customization should be called from the postProcessClientBeforeConnect(T client) implementation.

How To setup multiple mail server with failover in Spring Boot?

Sending emails from Spring Boot is as easy as possible.
spring:
mail:
host: <servername>
Plus some additional configuration and off you go.
We rely on an internal email provider that offers two mail servers. Instead of setting these up behind a load balancer, the consumer has to manage the failover itself.
So far, we have therefore only used one of the two servers via the Spring configuration mentioned above.
If this server has a problem, such as the current one where the TLS certificate has expired 🤦‍♂️, the Rediness Check in Spring Actuator floods the log file with error messages.
Does anyone have a solution for using multiple mail servers to provide a fallback scenario?

Spring integration : control ActiveMQ connection

I am looking for controlling ActiveMQ connections after starting of application in cluster environment if I want to disconnect some slave machine through code.
Any help around this will be really appreciable.
I don't believe Spring has any direct integration with ActiveMQ. Spring offers JMS integration which, of course, uses the generic JMS API which every JMS provider implements.
To manage ActiveMQ from a remote application will you need to use something like JMX.

How to send MQ messages (JMS) using JMeter

I have to put messages in a queue for which I have all the connection details (host, port, channel, manager, queuename and username). I never worked on implementing JMeter for sending MQ. Can anyone let me know where can I get (blog or reference) step by step procedure to perform this? I tried referring to official site, can't really understand those JNDI, connection Factory settings
Man, your MQ statement is too general as there are too many possible message queue system providers like Apache ActiveMQ, RabbitMQ, IBM MQ, TIBCO, etc. and the values for all these JNDI/JMS properties, connection factory names, queue names, etc. will be different.
To get an overview of Java communication with "MQ" get familiarized with Getting Started with Java Message Service (JMS)
Download .jar files for your MQ system and put them to JMeter Classpath
Perform configuration as per your MQ system connection settings, example setup for Apache ActiveMQ is here: Building a JMS Testing Plan - Apache JMeter

How to upload Spring Boot application using RabbitMQ messaging to AWS EC2?

I have a functioning application using Spring Boot, Rabbit MQ & MySQL DB locally. I'm curious, how I can upload this app to the AWS Environment and get it working seamlessly.
The only part where I'm lost is how to get RabbitMQ in the cloud? Any suggestions?
I see three options for your needs :
Use AmazonMQ managed service. This uses ActiveMQ under the hood, and supports the AMQP protocol (so you can continue to use the RabbitMQ client). Here's an article on how to do it : https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/migrating-from-rabbitmq-to-amazon-mq/.
Use a third-party managed service (such as CloudAMQP). This is similar to the first option, but you can choose a RabbitMQ provider if you wish.
Install RabbitMQ on an EC2 instance and manage it yourself. This is the most flexible option, but it will require more effort on your part and it will probably cost more. I would recommend this option only if you have special requirements that are not met by using a hosted service.
In all cases, I would also recommend to use a messaging library such as Spring Messaging or Apache Camel to isolate your code from your messaging implementation. This will reduce the boilerplate code you need for messaging and allows you to focus on your application logic.

How to make an application like JConsole?

I want to make an application like JConsole. Is it possible? If yes, what are the changes need to done at JVM level? I am planning to use Spring-Boot. As per my knowledge, JMX is enabled by default. Do I need to configure anything extra in my Spring-Boot app in order to access the JMXBeans which are exposed by default?
Here I'm not trying to expose any MBean instead I'm trying to access those beans which are already exposed by JVM. How to achieve it?
JConsole is a JMX compliant monitoring and management application. The architecture is quite simple. It's a client-server architecture. Where the client is the Remote application (Example JConsole or the one that you want to build) and the server is the JMX Agent. In your case, you want to build your own client which is possible.
I want to make an application like JConsole. Is it possible?
Yes, it is possible.
If yes, what are the changes need to done at JVM level?
What do you mean by changes at JVM level? You are simply creating a client application that connects to the server (JMX Agent) using a certain protocol. Remote Method Invocation (RMI) is the protocol used by JConsole for the connection to the JMX Agent. If you want to use RMI for communication, you don't have to do anything on the server side. But if you want to use some other protocol for communication, you can define your own Protocol adapter.
As per my knowledge, JMX is enabled by default.
As of Java SE 6 it is. But you can only monitor it locally. For connection from a remote machine, you need to define an RMI port to start listening for incoming connections.
Here I'm not trying to expose any MBean instead I'm trying to access those beans which are already exposed by JVM. How to achieve it?
Please check out the example from this link - Mimicking Out-of-the-Box Management Using the JMX Remote API. It shows you how to create a simple client application that connects to a remote JMX agent and access the MBeans. This should guide you in the right direction.
