I know how to publish simple msg to a Queue or Topic in weblogic JMS and how to get subscribe those msgs. I use standalone Pojo to send and receive the msgs.
Can you tell me if I can force the msg to become a Poison msg? If yes, what is the easiest way to force a msg to get poisoned?
The reason I wish to do so is to test if those poison msgs go to my error Q which I had configured.
I searched alot but fail to find such a demonstration of JMS msgs turning poisoned.

Poison messages are implementation-specific, so you'll have to work out what kind of garbage data you need to make your consumers reject it. Perhaps send an empty message, or one of the wrong type (object message vs text message)

I created a SpringBoot/Spring AMQP project where I configured a listener on a RabbitMQ queue. Question: Is there any way to leave the message in the queue? Let me explain: I consume the message and do some things (eg save on db), if something goes wrong I would like to be able to reconsume the message.
Thanks in advance
You need to think about configuring your listener container with transactions, so when DB call fails, the transaction is going to be rolled back and an AMQP message will not be acked on RabbitMQ.
See docs for more info: https://docs.spring.io/spring-amqp/docs/current/reference/html/#transactions
I don't know about the "Spring" way of accomplishing this, but what you describe is the normal behavior for AMQP consumers that do not automatically acknowledge.
From the documentation:
In automatic acknowledgement mode, a message is considered to be successfully delivered immediately after it is sent.
When you turn off automatic acknowledgment, your consumer must explicitly acknowledge the message, otherwise it will not be dequeued (or as you put it, it will be left "in the queue"). You will then need to simply ACK the message at the very end of your operation, when you are certain that your operation succeeded (and perhaps coordinated with your database transaction).
There is always the question of what to do first; acknowledge first or commit your database transaction first? Without adding complexity, you must choose what's best depending on what failure mode is less problematic for you, i.e. Would you rather tolerate a duplicated message or a missing message?
We have a JMS queue and multiple competing clients are reading from this queue.
Once the message is taken and successfully processed, we want to send the acknowledge to delete ( i.e. CLIENT ACKNOWLEDGE )
However, we want to make sure that if one client has picked the message another client should not take it from the queue.
Does activeMQ provide this feature out of the box using some configuration ?
Moreover:
If the message processing failed after picking the message, so it could not be acknowledged back, in this scenario we should like other client thread to pickup the message. Is it possible out of the box with configuration , may be specifying timeout values ?

You need to take some time to understand the difference between a Topic and a Qeueue in order to understand why the first question is not an issue.
For the second question it depends a bit on the ACK mode you are using and how you are processing messages sync or async. Normally for processing where you want to control redeliveries you would do the work inside of a transaction and if the processing fails the message would be redelivered when the TX is rolled back. ActiveMQ supports redelivery policies both client side and broker side that control how many time a message will be redelivered before sent to a DLQ.
I am using weblogic 10.3 .
I am trying to configure a durable subscription with persistent messaged backed by a jdbc store (in Oracle DB). I have a topic to which an MDB is listening as a durable subscriber.
Under scenario-1 : If I send the message, it hits the MDB.
Under scenario-2 : I suspend the MDB hoping that the messages send to the topic will stay around as long as they don’t get consumed by the MDB (which is the only registered durable subscriber). But when I do send the message to the topic, it briefly shows up there and then it goes away (i see it using HermesJMS).
I was under the impression that the messages since they are not being consumed by the MDB will get logged into the JDBC store in this case but the the WLSTORE table in oracle db does not get any messages persisted in it either.
I later found out that the messages do show up in the topic > durable subscribers > Show messages in the admin console.
So apparantly what’s happening is topic doesn’t keep the message, but the durable subscription that’s registered under it, keeps it until the message does get consumed.
Question -1) But the fact that messages are not going to the Oracle based jdbc store, still doesn’t make sense ? What am I doing wrong here ?
Question -2) Even when I do resume the MDB to start listening for the messages, the topic keeps showing all the message still intact under the durable subscribers (in admin console) - I was hoping they will get removed from there as they got processed by the only registered durable subscriber.
Messages do not show up in the topic, since topics and queues are different communication models. Assume you have a durable topic with 2 (durable) subscribers: A and B. You want both of them to get the message. To ensure that, A and B both have to confirm they received the message.
This is also the reason why you get all message redelivered, after reconnecting, your MDB has to call commit() on the message, to tell the server it is done processing.
This also explains why the topic itself does not store messages, they are stored per durable consumer. Because A might commit the message, but B will not (might be "offline"). So you need a copy for each consumer.
I found a couple of interesting things in further testing -
for Question 1) _ Even if I don't configure the jdbc store for the JMS server in weblogic 10, it has its own default file store which is always working without any configuration. This file store is used for storing the persistent messages for durable subscriptions and that store will keep the messages around even across server restarts.

for Question 2)_ My MDB was expecting XML messages in certain format, during my testing to keep things simple, i started sending small text messages and forgot that they will not get processed successfully in the MDB. so the MDB was failing on all those messages, and rolling back the transaction which is why the messages were never getting removed when I resumed the MDB.
This pretty much answers both my questions.
A producer is sending many messages to the queue.Now queue has theses messages stored.So before consuming these messages from consumer, if producer wants to delete some messages on queue which he sent it by mistake & he dont want receiver shoul receive this message.how can i achieve this. or any other suggestion,thnx
You should keep your session as transacted, and at the end either commit or rollback.
if you meant to commit and now you need to rollback, then you have a serious design problem with your application which you should review. Doing anything beyond that will require your application to have a database to deal with receives and ignore them, but if you can use a database for that you would have performance issues on accessing data in a sync manner.
One possible way: If the producer knows id of the message to be deleted, then it can just receive that message to remove that message from a queue. But this is not guaranteed to remove the message as consumer might have already received the message before producer realizes the mistake.
We have producer which is producing message at a rate faster than cosumer can consume. We are using Spring JMS integration as the consumer side technology stack. Currently we are using AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE mode.
In the onMessage() method of the listener, upon the receipt we are to planning submit the client side job to a job queue and return from the onMessage() method. This means if a) processing fails or b) our server goes down while processing there is no way for us recover.
We looked at the option of using CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE, but this means acknowledging a message with higher timestamp automatically acknowledges all the messages with a less timestamp. This is clearly not desirable for us because a successful processing a message with newer timestamp no way means that all the messages with older timestamp are processed completely. In effect we are looking on per message acknowledgement. However, I read somewhere that this means there is some design flaw.
The other option is to use a SessionAwareMessageListener interface provided by Spring. The contract of using this interface says that if a JMSException is thrown from the onMessage the message will be redelivered. However, I was not completely sure how to use this for our purpose.
While I dig more myself into this, any help from you guys will be greatly appreciated.
Session aware message has following onMessage prototype:
onMessage(Message message, Session session)
Invoke session.recover() for the message redelivery. Upon session.recover() will send all the unacknowledged messages back to the jms destination.
