[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBAS-7950) HornetQ keeps re-delivering the message infinitely on a failure to deliver to MDB

[ https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-7950?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.sy... ] jaikiran pai commented on JBAS-7950: ------------------------------------ The EJB3 spec says this for MDBs with CMT: (Section 5.4.14) <quote> JMS message-driven beans should not attempt to use the JMS API for message acknowledgment. Message acknowledgment is automatically handled by the container. *If the message-driven bean uses container-managed transaction demarcation, message acknowledgment is handled automatically as a part of the transaction commit.* If bean-managed transaction demarcation is used, the message receipt cannot be part of the bean-managed transaction, and, in this case, the receipt is acknowledged by the container. If bean-managed transaction demarcation is used, the Bean Provider can indicate whether JMS AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE semantics or DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE semantics should apply by using the activationConfig element of the MessageDriven annotation or by using the activation-config-property deployment descriptor element. The property name used to specify the acknowledgment mode is acknowledgeMode. If the acknowledgeMode property is not specified, JMS AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE semantics are assumed. The value of the acknowledgeMode property must be either Auto-acknowledge or Dups-ok-acknowledge for a JMS message-driven bean. </quote> So in case of CMT, the tx commit on the MDB's onMessage() should trigger a message acknowledgement. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
