MDB Deployment Exception (HELP!)

[rledousa]

Hi-

I posted this in the EJB3 forum a few days back and haven't had a reply, so I thought I'd try this forum. I have no clue what's going on and I could really, really use a helping hand.

----
I've just created my first MDB in JBoss 5.0 Beta 4 using Java 1.5. When I start Jboss (or deploy the project), I see the following error:

12:14:37,375 INFO [EJBContainer] STARTED EJB: cmpe275.ejb.SensorDataMDB ejbName: SensorDataMDB

Here's the class definition:

import javax.jms.Message;
import javax.jms.MessageListener;
import org.jboss.logging.Logger;
import javax.ejb.MessageDriven;
import javax.ejb.ActivationConfigProperty;

@MessageDriven(activationConfig =
{
@ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName="destinationType",
propertyValue="javax.jms.Topic"),
@ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName="destination",
propertyValue="topic/SensorData")
})

// topic is under java:comp/env/

public class SensorDataMDB implements MessageListener {
private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(SensorDataMDB.class);

public SensorDataMDB() {

}

public void onMessage(Message arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub

}

}

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Looks like the order in which your application and the topic is being deployed is incorrect. I tried this on my local 5.0 Beta4 setup and i see a similar exception. I have a similar MDB in an ear named EJB3Persistence.ear (which is placed in the deploy folder). I have my topic configured in destinations-service.xml which is inside deploy\messaging folder. When JBoss starts up it first deploys EJB3Persistence.ear and then deploys the topic in the messaging folder (because of the names of these files). I then renamed my ear to ZEJB3Persistence.ear so that it gets deployed after the topic in the messaging folder. Restarted the server. Everything went off fine - topic deployed and MDB deployed too. Maybe you too are seeing the same issue.

I also have the experienced same problem. My solution is to bring the server up and then deploy the mdb. Hopefully this will be fixed by CR1.

[rledousa]

thanks for the replies all.! I'll give the naming order a try.

A related question -- I've only been able to find examples for queue definition for jboss 4.

Is something like this still correct for jboss5 and should it go in a -service.xml file in \deploy?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<server>
 <!--My queue, named: testQueue-->
 <mbean code="org.jboss.mq.server.jmx.Queue"
 name="jboss.mq.destination:service=Queue,name=testQueue">
 <depends optional-attribute-name="DestinationManager">jboss.mq:service=DestinationManager</depends>
 </mbean>
 </server>

jbossas 5.0 beta4 uses JBoss Messaging 1.4.1.beta1. If you download the source for that version of JBoss Messaging, and look in the src/etc/server/default/deploy directory you will see an example destinations-service.xml file. It would be nice if that file was provided as part of jbossas, perhaps in the docs/example/messaging directory. (hint, hint)

Your queue definition would look like:

<mbean code="org.jboss.jms.server.destination.QueueService"
 name="jboss.messaging.destination:service=Queue,name=testQueue"
 xmbean-dd="xmdesc/Queue-xmbean.xml">
 <depends optional-attribute-name="ServerPeer">jboss.messaging:service=ServerPeer</depends>
 <depends>jboss.messaging:service=PostOffice</depends>
 <attribute name="SecurityConfig">
 <security>
 <role name="guest" read="true" write="true"/>
 </security>
 </attribute>
 </mbean>

changing the name of the ejb jar to Z..jar worked! Thanks for the idea and thanks for the clarification on defining queues.

Anyone know if this has been filed as a bug and/or is there anything I can do to help get it fixed?

For configuring a queue/topic in JBoss 5, i looked up the JBoss Messaging document at http://labs.jboss.com/file-access/default/members/jbossmessaging/freezone/docs/userguide-1.4.1.Beta1/html/index.html

Section 6.7 (Configuring Destinations) has some examples. But yes, it would definitely be nice if there were some example files shipped as part of JBossAS.

I searched the JIRA and could not find a related issue. You can report this one in the JIRA which is available at http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS
