Messages remained in queue - deferred

NMS 4.15/patched.
Any local domain user who has Email forwarded to a non-local domain is not receiving the forwarded Email.
The NMS message queue is stacked up with thousands of messages for remote hosts.
The queue is set for 1 minute retries for 3 days.
PROCESSQ does not cause delivery.
A test was setup with a non-local host, and the NMS 4.15 server never even contacts the remote host for delivery. BIND is running on the same machine and NSLOOKUP resolves remote hosts fine.
Prior to this, all was working fine. We had to reinstalled NMS 4.15 and reload the LDAP database due to a corrupted disc. The same configuration was used.
This sounds like a DNS issue whereby NMS is not finding an entry for the non-local host MX, however, the DNS used on the server (which has one IP address) resolves everything just fine.
Any help appreciated !
Thanks - Ado

(1) There are four entries for SMTP routing which affect domains which we are MX backup for. I am not concerned with any Email on these domains at the moment.
(2) Below is the test message which came into a local account which is forwarded. The local NMS account receipient got the message.
The SMTP server for the forwarded recipient (@thepilotshop.us) is sitting right next to me, and NMS has never made a connection to it.
Again, DNS resolves MX fine on that domain using the NMS server NSLOOKUP
The same is true for 1,500+ forwards to @aol.com and others well-known domains.

The oddity is that we installed from the exact same originals that we had been running onto a clean disc, with the same settings. The LDAP users were re-imported and that's it, and all was working fine before -:<>
Any suggestions ?

Messages remain in Queue Table

Hello,
I work as a dba in a company where my colleagues are developing an application that uses AQ.
The application is installed on multiple databases but we have a problem in a particular one:
the processed messages are not deleted from table by Oracle.
DBMS_AQADM.CREATE_QUEUE( Queue_name => 'my_AQ', Queue_table => 'AQT', Queue_type => 0, Max_retries => 65535, Retry_delay => 0, Retention_time => 2592000, dependency_tracking => FALSE);
SELECT msg_state, count(*) FROM AQT GROUP BY msg_state;
PROCESSED     830548

thanks,

Hi,
I didn't notice this in your first post:
DBMS_AQADM.CREATE_QUEUE(
    Queue_name => 'my_AQ',
    Queue_table => 'AQT',
    Queue_type => 0,
    Max_retries => 65535,
    Retry_delay => 0,
    Retention_time => 2592000,      <<<<<<<<<< why are you specifying such a high value for this?
    dependency_tracking => FALSE
);Retention_time: See doc for this value: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e11013/aq_admin.htm#i1006091
This parameter specifies the number of seconds a message is retained in the queue table after being dequeued from the queue. When retention_time expires, messages are removed by the time manager process. INFINITE means the message is retained forever. The default is 0, no retention.
You are asking for messages to be retained for 30 days, now looking at the min/max enq_time you have messages which are much older than this, but did you check when they were actually DQ'd (DEQ_TIME)?
Also, from my previous post, did you check out that MOS note ? Did you check what the Q00 processes are doing in the database?
Thanks

Messages in Distributed Queue remain on one JMSServer in Cluster

Hi,
          the situation is as follows:
          We're having Distributed Queues on a two-Node server setup. A queue therefore exists two times, once on each JMSServer on each node.
          Forward-Delay has been set on the DistibutedQueue to value 1 second (we tested with values 0 and 10, too).
          External Java client (both cluster nodes in the provider_url for initialcontext) connects to the DistributedQueue and sends messages. In the weblogic console you can see these messages on the physical queue on the JMSServer, let's call it QueueA on NodeA.
          An external java process to consume messages (again both clusters nodes in the jndi-connection-string) is started to consume messages. Because of round-robin it sometimes get's connections to QueueB (part of same DistributedQueue as QueueA, but on the other node in the cluster).
          When connected to QueueB on NodeB no single message is received. You can even see in the weblogic console that QueueA on NodeA has zero consumers and 50 messages, QueueB on NodeB has zero messages but one consumer.
          When we restart the consumer java process and it randomly get's connected to QueueA on NodeA it consumes fine, as it should.
          Should'nt Forward-Delay do exactly this? Transport messages from QueueA on NodeA with zero consumers to QueueB on NodeB which actually has consumers?
          Any help would be appreciated.
          Axel van Lil

Hi,
          thanks for your answer. We opened a support case today for this issue... I don't know. Cluster seems to run fine, no warnings, no exceptions.
          The next step of this issue is the following (just to give an idea of our upcoming problems :-)
          External Java process listens on QueueA on NodeA (QueueA is part of a Distributed Queue). Currently receives all the messages located on that queue. We kill NodeA on that machine to simulate failover.
          The external process failovers immediately to NodeB (which is good! proven by netstat and debugger) but just doesn't receive messages even though there are messages in that queue! It seems that the new consumer is just being forgotten by the BEA server.
          I don't know... somehow our configuration is quirked... or the BEA implementation doesn't work at all...
          Rgds,
          Axel

Messages in Buffered queue not beeing applied

Hi All,
Im running a streams environment. The receiving server crashed and was restarted. The apply process was restarted and the buffer was flooded with messages. Flow control initiatied on the sending database. The apply process doesn't show errors, but there are 5001 messages in the queue that arn't beeing applied. I' ve tried restarting the apply process and increased the number of parallel apply processes. Purging the queue doesn't seem like a good idea since the I will loose data. What can I do?
btw The messages in de queue seem to be in defered state. I dont know if this is of any importance...
Another thing that struck me as odd was the following:
Coordinator Low Watermark: 11063412548
Reader Oldest SCN: 11063412382
I would assume the Oldest SCN would be equal or higher that the Coordinator low watermark because messages are first beeing read, then coordinated then applied right?
and while I' m at it: it is no longer possible to disable the queue from Grid Control. If I try to, what happens is, that the status becomes disabled (red downward arrow) but the state remains:"DEQUEUEING MESSAGES"
kind regards,
Erik

Messages remain in Scheduled status in message monitoring in RWB

Hi PI experts,
I have got a situation where there are several messages showing in the Scheduled status. I followed the path RWB > Message Monitoring > Adapter Engine > Database (Overview) > Display.
QoS for these messages is EOIO, however there are no messages stuck in the queue. All other channels are running smoothly. Only with this particular channel the messages remain in Scheduled status for a long time.
I am neither able to make out the roor cause nor reprocess/resend these messages. Pleaes help.
Regards,
Dhawal

Hi Suraj,
What you said is absolutely correct. However, as I mentioned, the error message was not visible in RWB.
My problem just got resolved. What I did is this,
I followed the link http://<server>:<port>/MessagingSystem/monitor/monitor.jsp which is SAP Message Display Tool.
Here in EOIO Sequence Monitor I found the error message and it's predecessor. When I resent the erroneous message from here, all subsequent Holding messages got processed.
Thank you everyone for your help. Have a gr8 day...
Best Regards,
Dhawal

Messages Stuck in Queue in PI

Hi,
For a few inbound interfaces for which PI is the middleware, we have found that the messages are stuck in queue in PI. We have also found that the messages are stuck in the queue in PI because one message which has an RFC error (It does a RFC lookup from PI into R/3).
Is there any way in which we can trigger the RFC lookup manually for the failed message in the queue in PI?
If this is not the right forum, please let me know the correct forum.
Thanks in advance.
Mick

Hi,
We can prevent this problem through standard SAP program RSQIWKEX. This program need to execute background. Whenever any message stuck in queue automatically this problem will restart error message automatically. If you want to delete error message from queue (due to this error message remaining messages are in hold stage. for remaining message execution we need to delete error message from queue) we need to change one function in this probem.
Existing function TRFC_QIN_RESET_LUW , this function only can restart error message.
Need to add function TRFC_QIN_DELETE_LUW , this function delete error message from queue.
For this program execution we need to mentioned queue name(mandatory), find message stucking queue name and give same name to program in variant.
I hope now clear

SXMB_MONI message fail causing Queue struck at SMQ2

Hi All,
If mapping error occured in SXMB_MONI, corresponding entry will be struck up in SMQ2 and saying that SYSFAIL.
When i drill down this into further, it is saying that Mapping error.
Because of this all messages coming later also getting strucked in this queue.
Why is this happening and what to do for not to get struck further messages
Regards

Hi Hetal,
>>Create a job which will restart message after some time if it is stuck because of connection problem or something, then queue will be clear.
It's because of Mapping problem, even though we schedule a job to restart, it won't resolve. again it comes into same error.
@Prateej:
>>Could you check the QoS for the following entry in SXMB_MONI? Is it EOIO ?
QOS is Exactly Once
@Madu:
>>This is the standard behavior of PI. When some message will fail in Integration Engine(either because of Receiver not found or mapping error),some of remaining message(not all messages) which will come in the same queue of failed message will stuck.
You can not predict which messages will stuck and which messages will not stuck.
YES, you are right.
>>If you are having some important interface, which you want to divert the messages in other queue. You apply exactly once in order in sender channel for other interfaces so that these messages will not stuck in SMQ2.
For me all are Important Interfaces only. I can't prioritize
I think the better solution is Monitor failed messages in MONI every day and if it is failed because of Mapping error means, we can delete that entry from SMQ2.because for mapping related errors we don't require that message to restart again.
so that nothing will be queued after wards.
Regards

Message stuck in queue - Rejected by server

Okay, so I thought was being smart by trying to set up my companies email on my own. When I entered all of the information (which I made mistakes) I tried to send a test message. Of course it would not go through and was being rejected by my companies server. So I deleted the email account I created on iphone. However, the test email I sent remained in queue and kept trying to resend over and over getting the same error/rejection message from companies email. Since there is no sent box (on .MAC anyway)there was no way to erase the test message stuck in queue.
Solution: Since I currently have two email accounts .MAC and Yahoo, I just tured off the .MAC and all of a sudden I hear the SHOOOWWWSHHHH. The test message stuck in queue was sent from the yahoo account. (after I confirmed the message was sent, I turned on hte .MAC email account again)
Now I know this solution is purely dumb luck and playing around with settings, but just incase it happens to you, this was how I solved it.

Hey, thanks for that! It is very intersting to see how that works. Looks like the outgoing mail queue can change "on demand", like when you left only one account active. This means that the ability to send emails from any of the accounts regardless of where it came in is just a programming step away...

QueueBrowser not scaning all messages in JMS queue (ie not showing inprogre

Hi all,
I am using JMS in jboss-3.2.3, when scaning for pending messages i am using QueueBrowser.
But QueueBrowser not scaning all messages in JMS queue (ie not showing inprogress message)
But i need to know all messages including ongoing messages..
Antone plz help me
I am using Queuesender and QueueReceiver ..But some Exception or Error causes my JMS server(QueueReceiver listening for onMessage()) hanged up..and not responding to remaining messages...So i need to find pending messags in JMS queue..How can find?
Now i am using QueueBrowser to get list of pending msgs in queue... But doesn't contains Message which passed for processing (called onMessage())
.. But i need to find this also..How can?
Thanks,
Thilsen

You're right in thinking that the behaviour you describe looks wrong.
Take a look at the QueueBrowser interface which can be used to inspect a queue. You get one using QueueSession.createBrowser(Queue). The QueueBrowser allows you to scan a queue without consuming the messages. However note that the state of the queue may change while you're observing it through the QueueBrowser so what you see might not always be a 100% accurate representation of the queue at any given time.
Other things to check:
- message selectors - are you setting a message selector on your queue receiver which is resulting in not all of the messages 'matching'.
- expired messages - are you setting a time-to-live on the messages that you publish.
Hope this helps,

Unable to receive notifications of new messages arriving on queue

I was wondering whether any AQ experts out there could help me....
I have an Oracle AQ queue and a .net service which listens and dequeues messages from the queue. The .net service is written (using ODP.net) to execute a poll of the queue upon startup (in order to process anything on the queue initially), and thereafter to hook into the relevant ODP.net event (happens to be OracleAQQueue.MessageAvailable) such that anything that subsequently arrives on the queue gets dequeued.
Now, before you tell me to head off to the odp.net forum, I will add very quickly that we have this code in both DEV and TEST environments and it works fine. The queue happens to be a multiple-consumer queue, so the service subscribes as a particular consumer and everything hangs together. My problem is that we promoted all this code to LIVE a couple of days ago and although we are able to dequeue messages no problem we are no longer receiving MessageAvailable notifications.
Now, I come from a .net background and am 100% sure that the .net code on our Live servers is the same as the code on our Test servers, save for the connection string. So I believe that the problem is more database- or queue-config-related than software-related.
I do not have a high degree of Oracle knowledge in this area but what I can say is that when we start our .NET service, it is happily able to do the initial poll of the queue and to dequeue any messages. So this says to me that, fundamentally, we're not far off. i.e. it isn't anything really dumb like the queue doesn't exist in the live environment! It is purely that the MessageAvailable event never fires.
I guess my question is fairly open, then. Given what I have said, can anyone think of reasons why this could happen?
Things I have already thought of include:
- different versions of ODP drivers. Not so, I supervised their installation myself on each environment.
- firewall on the Live database blocking comms? I mean, presumably there is some tcp/udp comms going on underneath the MessageAvailable subscription. I don't believe this to be the case but if anyone knows where I can find out in more details how this works I'd be grateful, if only because it would allow me to ask more specific questions of the DBAs/Server admins
- my initial hunch was that it was something with the consumer not being set up fully (the .net code uses the consumer name to register both to dequeue messages and to subscribe to MessageAvailable notifications). Not I am told that this is not the case and that the consumer has been set up properly, but I'm still a little suspicious.
Anyway, any help would be gratefully received.
Pete

Hi Pete,
Together we may be able to work this out ... I have a good level of knowledge on the database side of AQ but know nothing about ODPAQ :)
Have you seen the following documentation section? Could there be some restrictions on the production host on the ports?
Oracle Data Provider for .NET opens a port to listen for notifications. HA events, load balancing, and database change notification features also share the same port. This port can be configured centrally by setting the database notification port in an application or Web configuration file. The following example code specifies a port number of 1200:
<configuration>
<oracle.dataaccess.client>
<settings>
<add name="DbNotificationPort" value="1200"/>
</settings>
</oracle.dataaccess.client>
</configuration>
If the configuration file does not exist or the db notification port is not specified, then ODP.NET uses a valid and random port number. The configuration file may also request for a random port number by specifying a db notification port value of -1.
The notification listener, which runs in the same application domain as ODP.NET, uses the specified port number to listen to notifications from the database. A notification listener gets created when the application registers with OracleAQQueue.MessageAvailable event. One notification listener can listen to all notification types. Only one notification listener is created for each application domain.
Thanks

How to set up the maximum number of messages on a queue programmatically

Hi,
I am using IMQ 3.5 to implement a message layer for one of my projects. I created a "Job Status Queue", which receives job status report from a java application every minute. But I just want to keep the most current status report instead of all the job running history. How can I restrict the maximum number of messages to 1 programmatically?
Any suggestion or help will be appreciated.
Xiaoyun Tang

You can't limit the destination size programmatically, but you can do it administratively and associate a behavior to occur when the limit is reached. In your case it sounds like you want a queue, 1 message deep, and to discard the oldest message when the queue is full. When you create the physical queue on the broker you can specify these attributes (you can also update them on an existing queue). For example:
imqcmd create dst -t q -n StatusQ -o maxNumMsgs=1 -o limitBehavior=REMOVE_OLDESTFor more information see Chapter 6 of the Message Queue Administration Guide. In particular the "Managing Destinations" section:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/coll/MessageQueue_35_SP1

How do i find the number of messages in a queue

Sorry if this is too trivial, but i haven't been able to figure out how to determine the number of messages in a queue. business case being that i can only have 3 messages in the send queue, so i need to stop sending if there are 3 outstanding messages still in the send queue.
Can someone point the way?
Thanks,
Nilesh

Hi,
To get the depth using JMS you must create a QueueBrowse and browse the entire queue. Its generally horribly inefficient if you want to do it with any regularity.
In Hermes I have had to write plugins that open separate connections to providers using their non-JMS APIs or JMX and get that kind of information that way.
Look at the getDepth() method in this JBoss plugin for an example that uses JMX:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/hermesjms/Hermes4/src/java/hermes/ext/jbossmq/JBossMQAdmin.java?view=markup
And here is one for WebSphereMQ that uses one of its many APIs..

Hello,
It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
Reset the Firewire bus
If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device. A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
1. Shut the machine down.
2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
3. leave it for 10 minutes.
4. Connect back up and reboot.
