Error description

  • Messages are sometimes stuck in locked state on WebSphere
    Application Server Service Integration Bus messaging engine
    destination. Once the messages are stuck all subsequent
    messages are not processed and even after removing the locked
    message, the subsequent messages remain stuck without being
    processed.
    
    
    javacores show deadlock between the following threads:

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  Users of the default messaging provider     *
    *                  for IBM WebSphere Application Server        *
    *                  Version 7.0, 8.0 and 8.5.                   *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Messages remain stuck without being     *
    *                      processed by MDB due to deadlock.       *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    Deadlock detected in Resouce Adapter (RA) code when concurrent
    instances of an MBD are consuming messages. As per the
    javacore, the state of the threads is as follows.
    Thread1:
    waiting for lock2 at JSLocalConsumerPoint.internalStart()
    obtained lock1 at
    SibRaSingleProcessListener$SibRaWork.workEnded()
    Thread2:
    waiting for lock1 at SibRaListener.consumeMessages()
    obtained lock2 at JSLocalConsumerPoint.runAsynchConsumer()
    Fix for this problem is to have a check and not to acquire
    lock1 in consumeMessages() if the session is starting.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Source code has been modified not to consume messages if
    the session starting is in progress.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix packs 7.0.0.27, 8.0.0.6 and 8.5.0.2.  Please refer to the
