JMS Error after few hours sending message and Jboss ping err

[cgonzalez]

Hi,
We are using JBoss 3.2.3 on Windows 2000 Server running Sun JDK 1.4.2.
We have two problems:

First:
Our application needs to send messages to a queue in the same machine for a long time. But, After a few hours we have the following exception:

org.jboss.mq.SpyJMSException: Cannot authenticate user; - nested throwable: (java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect)
at org.jboss.mq.Connection.authenticate(Connection.java:883)

To send the message to the queue we have the following code:

try {
context = new InitialContext();
connectionFactory = (QueueConnectionFactory) context.lookup("ConnectionFactory");
queue = (Queue) context.lookup("queue/infoRecordQueue");
queueConnection = connectionFactory.createQueueConnection();
queueSession = queueConnection.createQueueSession(false, Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
sender = queueSession.createSender(queue);
objectMessage = queueSession.createObjectMessage();
objectMessage.setObject(record);
sender.send(objectMessage);

} catch (NamingException e1) {
log.error("Error, NammingException occurred trying to send the TellarianInfoRecord", e1);
} catch (JMSException e) {
log.error("Error, JMSException occurred trying to send the TellarianInfoRecord", e);
} finally{
if (queueConnection != null){
try {
queueConnection.close();
} catch (JMSException e2) {
log.error("Error, JMSException occurred trying to close queueConnection", e2);
}
}
}

Second:
After the first error, when the server has been running for extended periods of time we note the following error keeps getting posted to our server.log:
org.jboss.mq.SpyJMSException: Connection Failed; - nested throwable:
(java.io.IOException: ping timeout.)
at org.jboss.mq.Connection.asynchFailure(Connection.java:718)

at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:534)
Caused by: java.io.IOException: ping timeout.
at org.jboss.mq.Connection$PingTask.run(Connection.java:1303)
... 2 more

And from here, the ping error listed above constantly writtes to the log.

Our application run succesfully for a few hours, and this make us believe that the ping error have not relation with a Network failure.

Anybody can help me? Thanks!
