How to enable auto reconnection in WSO2 ESB with ActiveMQ


If you followed my previous blog post, I guess you will be able to setup WSO2 ESB with ActiveMQ within few minutes.
Either you configured perfectly and messages communicated perfectly, if ActiveMQ goes stop or restarted, ESB console will print bunch of exceptions. Because ESB always connected with the respective JMS queues or topics with the JMS broker and once connection breaks ESB prints exceptions.

"transport.jms.CacheLevel" is the parameter which used to reconnect to the broker in case of failure.This parameter need to be configured in each and every connection factories under JMS sender configurations.
To configure it, open axis2.xml located in  ESB_HOME/repository/conf/axis2/axist.xml". add "transport.jms.CacheLevel" parameter as follows.




Once ESB work with the parameter, Either broker goes failed or restarted you will see ESB console print reconnection messages like below.
