Issue with message delay

[joydeep.sarkar]

Dear All,

I am trying to make the message stay in the queue for a while for which I have used following code,

message.setLongProperty("_HQ_SCHED_DELIVERY", System.currentTimeMillis() + 120000);

Now, when I run the code in Windows machine, it works well. But when I move the same configuration in Linux and try this out, it fails to work.

Could anyone please let me know if any configuration I need to check?

Regards,

Joydeep

Check the clock on your Linux box is synchronixed with your server

Hi Tim,

The Linux box itself is running the JBoss Server.

Is your client and server on the same box, if not, check there clocks are synced

Hi,

Thanks a ton for the suggestion. When I put the machine times in sync it worked perfectly.

But since there would be many users accessing the servers from accross different time zones, if I still use "System.currentTimeMillis() + 60000", it would calculate the time based on the client machine. Is there a work around for this problem?

you would need to lookup the time from the server somehow, should be pretty simple to write a service todo this.
