[jira] Closed: (AMQ-1490) Deadlocks (with JUnit tests)

["Rainer Klute (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1490?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Rainer Klute closed AMQ-1490.
-----------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Hm, when I tried once again to reproduce it, I couldn't. Perhaps my grace period of 15 seconds for deadlock/blocking was too short and the algorithm detected a block that wasn't one. Now it requires 2 minutes without any send/receive activity before claiming that something blocks.

I'd say let's close this issue. I'll continue to stress test ActiveMQ anyway and will submit a new issue soon!

Rob, thanks a lot for fixing this issue!

> For some time now there have been various bug reports about ActiveMQ "blocking", "not receiving messages", "running into a deadlock" etc. Since I encoutered such deadlocks now and then, too, I eventually wrote up a JUnit testing scenario for this stuff. I found out that deadlocks can be quite easily reproduced. The symptoms are that the producer thread is sending or committing while the consumer thread is receiving or committing - and none of them can advance. One of the threads is always stuck in a blocking queue.

> The following factors seem to increase the probability of a deadlock:
> * small values for memoryUsage
> * working transacted in the consumer (not always necessary but "helps")
> * many messages in the persistence store (to be achieved via a long delay before the consumer starts to read messages)
