    Message driven bean does not run

    fredatwork

      Hello,

      Please ignored previous message (I reformatted it here with appropriatate coding tags for better reading).

      I'm new to JMS and Message driven beans (but I'm not new to JBoss and session/entity beans).

      I run JBoss 3.2.2 on Windows XP ('default' mode). I've build a prototype to play with my first message-driven bean :
      - I have a message-driven bean called 'CalculationExecutionBean'. Its onMessage() method printsthe good-old-message "Hello World !" to the server's standard output
      - I have a client that sends a basic 'Hello World !' test message.

      The client runs well (JNDi context is created, queue factory and queue are found, JMS connection and session are created) and appearently a message is sent correctly. But the CalculationExecution bean does not say anything in its onMessage() method ... It looks like its onMessage() method is not triggered.

      I've tried different queues that come preconfigured with JBoss : 'queue/A' and 'queue/testQueue'. If I change the queue name on the client with a non appropriate name, the client fails with a NamingException (ok). If I change the name in the jboss.xml descriptor (through XDoclet generation), JBoss warns me because it cannot find the queue with the non-appropriate name (ok). Therefore, I think the JNDi names that I'm using are all right ('queue/A' or 'queue/testQueue'), but still I do not understand why the message-driven bean does not run.

      Can anyone help me with this ?

      Here is the CalculationExecutionBean source code:

       try {
       this.ejbContext = mdc;

       } catch (NamingException e) {
