OSB - JMS State String - jms

I have a proxy service calling a business service that put a message on a queue, my problem is that the State String on Weblogic Console remains "send transaction" instead of "visible", this cause my BAM consumer not be able to take this message from the queue. Is there any configuration that I need to do on proxy or business service to change this state? I also have the transactions required checked on proxy service to guarantee the message be removed only In case of success.

Assuming you on 11g as you refer to "proxy" (not pipeline) calling business service.
Are you sure the proxy service is completing the action without errors?
If you are using an XA JMS connection factory to push to the JMS queue, are you sure the XA transaction is committing fully? Logs/weblogic JTA monitoring tab might have clues.
Alternately, first try using a non-XA connection factory and see if that works.

Wildfly 10 jms send Message to queue as part of XA transaction

I have recently had to support a colleague in verifying why some system tests are not passing in wildfly, system tests that pass consistently on weblogic and glass fish.
After analysing the log, it became clear the reason is related to a JMS message sent by a backed thread getting committed to a queue too soon, when the expectation was the message would be committed when the entry point Container Managed Transaction of an MDB commits. So the message is going out before the MDB that sends it is done running.
In weblogic, to achieve the expected behaviour, you need to make sure that when you take the connection factory given by the container , which is XA configured, you set the connection.createseesion with
transacted = true and
acknowledgement = session transacted.
In a process similar to the one depicted in this URL
http://www.mastertheboss.com/jboss-server/jboss-jms/sending-jms-messages-over-xa-with-wildfly-jboss-as
Except in the snippet above auto acknowledge is set and the first parameter is set to false.
In wildly when our weblogic and glass fish configuration is used, nothing is committed and the system behaves as if the JMS message sent were to be rolled back.
If configuration as in the example above were to be used, instead what would happen is that the JMS message is immediately and the consumer MDB immediately launches being trigerred before the producer transaction actually ends, causing the system test to fail.
According to the official JMS configuration, by using a connection-pooled factory with the transaction=XA attribute, the container should immediately bind the commit of the transaction to the lifecycle of the parent transaction.
See official documentation bellow in particular in respect to the Java:/JmsXa connection factory.
https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY10/Messaging+configuration
My colleague was initially using a non pooled connection factory, but the injection info reference has since then been fixed. I have tried all possible combinations of parameters in the shed message, but my outcome is sitll:
Either sent too soon or never sent.
To conclude all the other resources are XA. Namely the oracle db is using the XA driver.
Can anyone confirm if in wildly the send JMS message only when parent transaction commits is working and if so how the session is being configured?
I will check if perhaps my colleague has not made a mistake in terms of the configuration of the connection factory used by the Men's themselves to consume messages out of the queue.but if that one is also XA... Then it is a big problem.
So the issues is fixed.
The commit of the JMS message to the queue at the end of the transaction works perfectly.
The issue was two fold:
(a) First spot of code I was looking at address the issue was not correct. Someone had decided to write his own send telegram to queue API elsewhere, and was not using the central API for sneding telegrams, so any modification I to the injection connection factory was actually not taking effect. The stale connection factories were still being used.
(b) Once the correct API was spotted it was easy to make the mechanism work by using the widlfy XA pooled connection factory mentioned in the post above.
The one thing that was tweaked was the connection.CreationSession api.
The API in JEE 7 has been enlarged and it is now better documented than in jEE 6.
To send a JMS message in a container as part of an XA transaction one should do:
connection.createSession() without any parameters.
This can easily be seen in the connection javadoc:
https://docs.oracle.com/javaee/7/api/javax/jms/Connection.html
QUOTE 1:
This method has been superseded by the method createSession(int
sessionMode) which specifies the same information using a single
argument, and by the method createSession() which is for use in a Java
EE JTA transaction. Applications should consider using those methods
instead of this one.
QUOTE 2:
In a Java EE web or EJB container, when there is an active JTA
transaction in progress:
Both arguments transacted and acknowledgeMode are ignored. The session will participate in the JTA transaction and will be committed
or rolled back when that transaction is committed or rolled back, not
by calling the session's commit or rollback methods. Since both
arguments are ignored, developers are recommended to use
createSession(), which has no arguments, instead of this method.
Which means, the code snippet in:
http://www.mastertheboss.com/jboss-server/jboss-jms/sending-jms-messages-over-xa-with-wildfly-jboss-as
Is not appropriate. What one should be doing is creating the session without any parameter and leting the container handle the rest.
Which it does just fine.

Stop Spring standalone service

I am using Spring Integration in my project.
We have a requirement that in case where we will have stop Spring standalone service if database goes down.
In Message listener when I persist the data into database I check if I get CannotGetJdbcConnectionException then stop the Spring service using applicationContext.close() method.
Problem here is if I received any message on to the Queue and database goes down.
I tried to close Spring service then all resource goes down except DefaultMessageListenerContainer that holds that message.
If I terminate the process manually then message goes into inbound Queue which is correct.
Is there any way I could stop Spring service forcefully and put the message back to Inbound Queue?
I hope I am clear with my point here.
Thanks
Sachin
You should configure the DMLC with setSessionTransacted(true) (acknowledge="transacted" when using the namespace to define the endpoints).
Then any in-flight messages will be rolled-back onto the queue.

Oracle Service Bus (OSB) Proxy Service Endpoint URI change

We have an OSB Proxy Service which is currently setup to receive messages from an external jms queue endpoint URI. We have been tasked with creating a JMS bridge over which to receive external messages.
To this end, we have created a bridge with local jms in/out queues and proceeded to edit the OSB Proxy Service's Endpoint URI from that of the old external jms queue to that of our new local bridge's jms queue. However, when we try to activate the changes, we get: Exception in AppMerge flows' progression message.
Being quite new to all things OSB, I am unsure as to what this error means and whether re-pointing a Proxy Service's Endpoint URI from remote jms queue to local bridge's jms queue is enough for what we are attempting to do.
Any thoughts on this matter would be much appreciated!
Our OSB version is 10gR3.
Regards,
PM.
I think your Proxy is not deployed correctly. I think after creating the bridge and queues, restart your server and then try to work.

about Session.rollBack() in JMS

All,
i am new to JMS and i have a question about Session.rollBack() method in JMS. AFAIK, this method is used to roll back all operations to JMS server (sending/receiving) by the session when using *SESSION_TRANSACTED* acknowledge mode. Now suppose I am calling this method in a catch block of a receiving/processing operation (is reasonable?), to tell JMS server to redeliver the message for processing, But even if it is redelivered the processing still throws the same exception which cause the JMS server to redeliver the message again, so it seems a infinite process. How to handle this problem? or are there any other JMS features that is designed for it? Thanks in advance!
The rollback method in JMS will rollback any message sends and receives in that "transaction". Transaction here is local to the JMS session.
Whether a redelivery will cause a problem really depends on why the exception occurred. If it was due to some transitory issue then a redelivery may work. If you have the kind of problem that is once it occurs will always occur (an example of this would be a JMS TextMessage whose body should contain XML, but doesn't).
The JMS API doesn't provide any solution to this itself. This is typically taken care of by the JMS provider and how it behaves will depend on which one you use. WebSphere MQ for instance will redeliver up to a configurable maximum at which point it will move it off to a queue for bad messages. The Service Integration Bus in WebSphere Application Server has similar behaviour. I suggest you consult your JMS provider documentation to determine exactly how it behaves in this situation.
If you are running in an application server rollback typically doesn't do anything because the application server will be managing transactions for you.

JBoss doesn't sends a JmsTemplate (Spring) message

Well, actually JBoss does send the message, but only when the current transaction started by the EJB is finished.
We have this problem with JBoss 4.0.3 and Spring's JmsTemplate. An EJB sends a message to a queue with a temporary queue as the reply_to field. Then, inside the same transaction, we listen for the response given by the first MDB. The problem is that the JmsTemplate's method "send" isn't executed after the transaction have finished. So, by the time the message is sent to the queue, and processed by the MDB, the listener of the temporary queue is gone.
This is called "Synchronous Reception"
Two things change this behavior but does raise some concerns:
Change the EJB's transaction type to BMT. (Concern: BMT sucks)
Create a thread that all it does is to call the JmsTemplate.send() method.
As a side note, this is an EJB that is working correctly on a weblogic environment, and the message does get sent when it should, in the middle of the transaction not when it's over.
Thanks for any help.
JBoss's behaviour is correct. JMS is a transactional API, and sends should only be executed when the tx commits.
It may be possible to convince JmsTemplate not use the current transactional context, although it makes a point of trying to hide the unpleasantness of the JMS API from you.
You could wrap the JMS template in code, either a Stateless session bean or a service method using Spring's transaction management, that uses a transaction propagation of REQUIRES_NEW. That way the sending of the message is in its own transaction that will commit the sending of the message outside the scope of the wrapping transaction.
I'm not sure why this would work on Weblogic though. My guess would be that on Weblogic it's not recognizing the queue as an XA Queue.
