Re: Stuck messages - Dispatch issues

Was this issue ever resolved?  I am seeing this as well with a large number
of concurrent consumers.  Same symptoms.  Lost messages until broker
restart.

Thanks,
Elliot

Re: Stuck messages - Dispatch issues

Posted by Pavel <pa...@gmail.com>.
Sounds scary to me, as system I'm working on uses activemq extensively, and
is not production-proven yet.

Do you have/can you build a junit test case that reproduces the issue under
5.3? If so, that looks like a good start for Jira defect.

Disclaimer - I'm not an AMQ committer.

Thanks,
Pavel

Re: Stuck messages - Dispatch issues

Posted by Elliot Barlas <el...@gmail.com>.
Yes.  I am using spring 3.0, but not for JMS.  I manage my own connections,
sessions, producers, and consumers.  I have tried reproducing the issue in a
test case, but I cannot.  It only occurs in my application, when I have
roughly 20 or more concurrent consumers, each associated with a different
session.  I am using the VM transport exclusively, as all communication
takes place with an embedded AMQ message broker.  

Thanks,
Elliot

Hi - thank you for pointing this out - that was it. I was able to follow the blog's description to the dot and it solved the problem - yeah - we can go into production with this . Thank you all for listening and helping out.

Hi,there is a well-known reason about stuck messages when brokers are networked.

RE: Stuck messages - Dispatch issues

Hi

Good point, I actually do have the same network config on the other node2 pointing to node1. However, I have now full duplex enabled and still have the same problem.

Looks like your network connectors are in one direction only, ie, node1 -->
node2
What this means is messages will only flow across the network FROM node1 TO
node2 based on the demand (consumers) on node2. They will not flow the
other way unless you set up a bridge in the other direction (node2 -->
node1) or use duplex="true" on your existing network connectors. Not sure
what you mean when you say restarting the brokers fixes what you were
seeing.

Re: Stuck messages - Dispatch issues

Posted by swplotner <sw...@amherst.edu>.
Hi,

Using 5.7.0 I find that the problem exists in the following way:

2 brokers connected via network.

Broker A
	has consumer connected to a /queue/foo.test

Broker B
	has a producer connected to /queue/foo.test

the producer is producing message for /queue/foo.test and the consumer will
receive them just fine. The producer is configured to stuff messages into
the queue one after the other, the consumer on purpose consumes messages
slowly. 

Once we have several hundred messages in /queue/foo.test we abort the
producer and consumer.

Looking at queue sizes on both brokers, broker A has a large number of
messages and broker B has some number of messages or none.

Take the consumer that was previously talking via broker A and connect him
to broker B. That consumer will now only see the messages that are in broker
B and will NOT receive ANY of the messages stuck in broker A.

The only way I can get out of this problem is to restart both brokers and
all messages are then process correctly.

I have spent quite a bit of time on this problem and if there is only one
broker this is not a problem - the moment you have a network of 2 brokers
this problem exists.

Here are my network connectors, one for topics and one for queues:
        
        <networkConnectors>
            <networkConnector name="net-node1-node2-queues"
                uri="static:(ssl://activemq-node2.amherst.edu:61615)"
                networkTTL="3"
                dynamicOnly="true"
                prefetchSize="1"
                duplex="false"
                userName="${netlink.username}"
                password="${netlink.password}"
                conduitSubscriptions="false"
                >
                <dynamicallyIncludedDestinations>
                   <queue physicalName=">"/>
                </dynamicallyIncludedDestinations>
            </networkConnector>

            <networkConnector name="net-node1-node2-topics"
                uri="static:(ssl://activemq-node2.amherst.edu:61615)"
                networkTTL="3"
                dynamicOnly="true"
                prefetchSize="1"
                duplex="false"
                userName="${netlink.username}"
                password="${netlink.password}"
                conduitSubscriptions="false"
                >
                <dynamicallyIncludedDestinations>
                    <topic physicalName=">"/>
                </dynamicallyIncludedDestinations>

Re: Stuck messages - Dispatch issues

We tested with activemq version 5.4.2. The message stuck with this version
too. I think a jms provider in which the messages stuck is not useable. The
activemq team should stop to fix another problems and begin to analyse what
the reason for this problem is and deliver a patch as soon as possible.

Re: Stuck messages - Dispatch issues

Posted by nnprasad <NN...@dwd.IN.gov>.
 We have been experiencing the same Issue and using 5.2.0.

Recently upgraded to 5.4.2 because of this, But I am Not Sure this has been
fixed.

Responding to Rob Davis Post..

I think nothing to suspect with Spring here, because when this is happening
I tried hitting the same queue with a new simple consumer(AMQ connections
and NO Spring JMS). This Simple consumer is also waiting on the newly sent
message. created a new queue and subscribed to it while this is happening.

New Producer - new Queue - New Single Consumer = No Receive Happened.

Useful Links:
                   https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPR-5110
                   https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-2009

I created an Issue with good links 
                   https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-3225


I am really afraid of 5.4.2 because Once I saw in it...but Some one also
reported the same in 5.4.2

http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/Message-stuck-on-queue-td3338786.html#a3354797


We are planning to go to production with 5.4.2, Its a public project related
to claims, what if they were not processed because of activeMQ not
delivering messages ?????????????????? :-(

Please take this as serious.

Thank You,
Nag. P

Hi,

the problem we have too. Sometimes the messages stuck in queue and after a
restart it deliver to the consumer.

Do you still get problems if not using Spring ?
