Hi,

I am using WAS5.1 with WMQ 5.3. I am using MDBs as message consumers.

1) The problem i have is that i want to handle MDBs differently based on the type of exception. For example -- lets say if there is a data problem with my message then i want to move it to the error queue/log it and let the MDB continue process subsequent messages. but lets say if the DB is down then i want to stop the listener port so that the messages stay there until the DB comes up. how can i achieve this? If i specify a backout queue then in the case of exceptions all the msgs are sent to that backout Q after the re-delivery max has reached. Is there a possible way?

2) Apart from throwing JMSException in the MDB its not recommended to throw any other exception in the MDB right?

3) This is different from the two problems above...this is well known that MDBs could start processing the msg even before the application has fulyl started. This happens with my application quite often, as a result the msgs get rejected because its not able to find the digester xml ( i am using commons digester to parse the msgs). In weblogic there is a property start-mdbs-with-application but does anyone know if there is anything for WAS? I know this is a wrong place to ask a qns about WAS but since this is related to MDBs i decided to put it here.

TIA,

Quite easy. Do not supply a backout threshold and do not supply a backout queue. In the error handling of the MDB handle the cases you need and throw the exception if you want the MDB blocked...

Read the WAS manual and the red books. It is defined quite clearly what is authorized and what is not. On top of this you have the method signature (contract, API) to guide you.

Have the MDB grab hold of some class that initializes in such a way it goes into a loop until the DB is up??? (Just a suggestion...)
