MDB and exceptions

[hfarid]

As far as I understand from all the other postings, MDB should NEVER throw any exceptions bcause this will trigger retry.

In my MDB, I am catching all the exceptions which can be thrown
I debugged my MDB and reached the return line of the onMessage() method. I even wrapped my code with try{}catch(Throwable e)

How can I stop the messages from being resent

Setup:
Solaris 10 (blade 1500)
JBoss 4.0.2
JDK 5

Thanks

Have a look at this thread:

What is your message driven bean actually doing?

The reason an exception from the message driven bean causes the message to be redelivered is because it causes the transaction to roll back.

Are you calling other EJBs? If you are calling other EJBs in the same transaction any one of them could be rolling back the transaction.

You are right, I am trying to remove a CMP entity bean and it causing me a lot of problems (check my other posting http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=70310)
