IT11950: MQ V8 RESOURCE ADAPTER DOES NOT SUPPORT THE MDB ACTIVATION PROPERTIES CONNECTIONFACTORYLOOKUP AND DESTINATIONLOOKUP

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The MQ V8 resource adapter has been deployed into a Wildfly V9
  application server. A message-driven bean application (MDB) has
  been installed into the same application server, and has been
  written to make use of the activation properties:
  
  - connectionFactoryLookup
  - destinationLookup
  
  However, when the application starts up, the warning messages:
  
  WFLYEJB0006: ActivationConfigProperty destinationLookup will be
  ignored since it is not allowed by resource adapter: wmq.jmsra
  WFLYEJB0006: ActivationConfigProperty connectionFactoryLookup
  will be ignored since it is not allowed by resource adapter:
  wmq.jmsra
  
  appear in the application server's log file and no messages are
  delivered to the MDB.
  

Local fix

• Instead of using 'destinationLookup':
  
  - Set the 'useJNDI' property to the value 'true'
  - And set the 'destination' property to the JNDI name of the
  destination to look up.
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  This issue affects users of the MQ V8 Resource Adapter, who have
  written message-driven bean applications that are using the
  activation properties:
  
  - connectionFactoryLookup
  - destinationLookup
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  Section 13.1 of the JMS 2.0 Specification contains a table which
  shows all of the message-driven bean (MDB) activation properties
  which should be supported by any resource adapter that is
  included with a JMS 2.0 compliant JMS provider. The properties
  are shown below:
  
  - destinationLookup
  - connectionFactoryLookup
  - acknowledgeMode
  - messageSelector
  - destinationType
  - subscriptionDurability
  - clientId
  - subscriptionName
  
  The resource adapter shipped with MQ V8 only supported the
  properties shown below:
  
  - acknowledgeMode
  - messageSelector
  - destinationType
  - subscriptionDurability
  - clientId
  - subscriptionName
  
  The properties:
  
  - destinationLookup
  - connectionFactoryLookup
  
  were not supported, and could not be used.
  

Problem conclusion

• The MQ V8 resource adapter has been updated to include support
  for the MDB activation properties:
  
  - destinationLookup
  - connectionFactoryLookup
  
  If the MDB activation property connectionFactoryLookup is
  specified, and both the connection factory in JNDI and the
  activation specification have the clientID property set, then
  the value from the activation specification will be used in
  preference to the value on the connection factory. This allows
  multiple activation specifications to use the same underlying
  connection factory in JNDI, and specify different values for the
  clientID property.
