Deploying topics via JMX vs. jboss-service.xml

[jpace]

I am using the default configuration with JBoss 3.2.6. I can deploy a topic using the following XML:

<mbean code="org.jboss.mq.server.jmx.Topic" name="jboss.mq.destination:service=Topic,name=SampleTopic">
 <depends optional-attribute-name="DestinationManager">jboss.mq:service=DestinationManager</depends>
 <depends optional-attribute-name="SecurityManager">jboss.mq:service=SecurityManager</depends>
 <attribute name="SecurityConf">
 <security>
 <role name="durpublisher" read="true" write="true" create="true"/>
 </security>
 </attribute>
</mbean>

and then I can create a Durable Topic Subscription using the following code:

InitialContext iniCtx = new InitialContext();
TopicConnectionFactory tcf =
 (TopicConnectionFactory) iniCtx.lookup("ConnectionFactory");
TopicConnection conn = tcf.createTopicConnection("john", "needle");
Topic topic = (Topic) iniCtx.lookup( "topic/SampleTopic" );
TopicSession session =
 conn.createTopicSession(false, TopicSession.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
conn.start();
TopicSubscriber recv =
 session.createDurableSubscriber(topic, "SampleSubscriber");

However, if I instead create the topic at runtime, via the JMX Console, I get an exception. I use the createTopic method in the DestinationManager MBean. After the topic has been created, I set the SecurityManager and SecurityConf attributes in the MBean. I set SecurityManager to:
jboss.mq:service=SecurityManager

and I set the SecurityConf attribute to:

<security><role name="durpublisher" read="true" write="true" create="true"/></security>

When I try to subscribe to the topic using the code above, I get the following exception:
15:37:46,781 INFO [STDOUT] javax.jms.JMSSecurityException: Connection not authorized to do durable subscription on topic: SampleTopic
15:37:46,781 INFO [STDOUT] at org.jboss.mq.security.ServerSecurityInterceptor.subscribe(ServerSecurityInterceptor.java:135)

Any idea what steps I'm missing when I create the topic via JMX instead of deploying it via XML?

Using setSecurityConf after the destination has started is ignored.
You would need to do it directly on the security manager.

Yes, that solved the issue. For completeness, let me summarize:

To create a topic at runtime, via JMX:

1. Call the createTopic operation on the DestinationManager MBean. For the example I gave in the original posting, the call would be createTopic("SampleTopic", "topic/SampleTopic").

2. Call the addDestination operation on the SecurityManager MBean. For the example I gave in the original posting, the first parameter would be "SampleTopic", and the second parameter would be a org.w3c.dom.Element with a value of

<security><role name="durpublisher" read="true" write="true" create="true"/></security>
