Hi JBoss people
For the project I’m currently working on, I’m trying to get JBoss Messaging to bridge messages from a JBoss queue to a IBM WebSphere MQ queue.
I’m using IBM’s “WebSphere MQ resource adapter” and JCA administered objects to bind remote WMQ queues to my local JNDI.
The guides I have followed, to configure the resource adaptor and to define my queues is found here:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/library/techarticles/0710_ritchie/0710_ritchie.html
http://community.jboss.org/wiki/UsingWebSphereMQSeriesWithJBossASPart4
To Bridge the messages im using the org.jboss.jms.server.bridge.BridgeService MBean as shown below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<server>
<mbean code="org.jboss.jms.server.bridge.BridgeService"
name="jboss.messaging:service=Bridge,name=WMQBridge"
xmbean-dd="xmdesc/Bridge-xmbean.xml">
<depends optional-attribute-name="TargetProviderLoader">jboss.messaging:service=JMSProviderLoader,name=JMSWMQProvider</depends>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<server>
<mbean code="org.jboss.jms.server.bridge.BridgeService"
name="jboss.messaging:service=Bridge,name=WMQBridge"
xmbean-dd="xmdesc/Bridge-xmbean.xml">
<depends optional-attribute-name="SourceProviderLoader">jboss.messaging:service=JMSProviderLoader,name=JMSProvider</depends>
<depends optional-attribute-name="TargetProviderLoader">jboss.messaging:service=JMSProviderLoader,name=JMSWMQProvider</depends>
<attribute name="SourceDestinationLookup">queue/messagedistribution_contact_out</attribute>
<attribute name="TargetDestinationLookup">queue/WMQTest_out</attribute>
<attribute name="QualityOfServiceMode">1</attribute>
<attribute name="MaxBatchSize">1</attribute>
<attribute name="MaxBatchTime">-1</attribute>
<attribute name="FailureRetryInterval">5000</attribute>
<attribute name="MaxRetries">-1</attribute>
</mbean>
</server>
When the bridging is performed i get the following error:
10:15:06,820 WARN [Bridge] jboss.messaging:name=WMQBridge,service=Bridge Failed to set up connections
com.ibm.msg.client.jms.DetailedIllegalStateException: MQJCA1031: The method can only be called in the application client container.

The “WebSphere MQ resource adapter” fails; telling me that an illegal method has been called.
On line 1017 and 1025 of the class org.jboss.jms.server.bridge.Bridge, the method setExceptionListener() is called on the on the JMS ConnectionFactory.
On page 133 - 134 of the Java™ Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) Specification, v5 (http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/final/jsr244/index.html) it is clearly stated that call to this method (and other methods), from web or EJB containers is prohibited.
The “WebSphere MQ resource adapter” has implemented this restriction and throws an Exception if the method is call on their ConnectionFactory implementation.
So the questions is:
Isn’t JBoss Messaging violating the JEE5 specification, and how do I create a workaround for the problem?
I have had the exact same error when using the JBoss ESB http://community.jboss.org/thread/156545
Looking forward to hear your opinions.
Kind regards
