Problems with Messaging Bridge and MQ.

Question

          Hi,
          I'm trying to use the Weblogic messaging bridge to provide a set of local queues
          to my application server from a set of MQ queues, using XA.
          My problem is that when the bridge starts up, it gives the following error:
          <Aug 5, 2002 4:35:14 PM BST> <Info> <MessagingBridge> <Bridge "BRIDGE.STATUS1"
          failed to connect to the source destination and will try again in 20 seconds.
          (javax.resource.spi.ResourceAllocationException: CreateManagedConnection Error:
          ConnectionFactory: failed to get initial context (InitialContextFactory =weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory,
          url = file:////blah/adminobjects, user name = null, password = null)>
          <Aug 5, 2002 4:35:14 PM BST> <Notice> <WebLogicServer> <ListenThread listening
          on port 8051>
          I think the problem is as follows...
          This bridge should be connecting to a file-server JNDI implementation, and should
          therefore being trying to obtain a com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory
          initial context, not a weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory one. I have set up
          the destination in the weblogic console with a file server context, but this doesn't
          have any effect.
          The file server JNDI implementation definitely works, as I can access the queues
          directly and use them to call MDBs.
          Can anyone help?
          

Answer 1

          You mentioned that the patch initially worked. What did you do after
          that?
          You can turn on the messaging bridge debug by adding those to
          you script for starting the server:
          -Dweblogic.Debug.DebugMessagingBridgeStartup=true
          -Dweblogic.Debug.DebugMessagingBridgeRuntime=true
          See what you get in the server log.
          You need to post your config.xml and the script as well for further
          help.
