Configure with IBM WebSphere Application Server

This page describes how to configure the WSO2 JMS transport with IBM^® WebSphere^® Application Server.

1. Set up IBM WebSphere Application Server according to the instructions provided by IBM.

2. Create a JMS queue (e.g., samplequeue) and a JMS connection factory (e.g., QueueConnectionFactory) as described in the topics under Setting Up JMS in IBM WebSphere Application Server in the IBM documentation.

3. Copy the following libraries from <WEBSHPERE_HOME>/java/lib directory to <ESB_HOME>/repository/components/lib directory.

com.ibm.ws.runtime.jar
com.ibm.ws.admin.client_7.0.0.jar
com.ibm.ws.sib.client.thin.jms_7.0.0.jar
com.ibm.ws.webservices.thinclient_7.0.0.jar
bootstrap.jar

4. Add the following entries to the <ESB_HOME>/repository/conf/etc/launch.ini file.

javax.jms,\
javax.rmi.CORBA,\

5. Enable the JMS Listener and Sender in <ESB_HOME>/repository/conf/axis2/axis2.xml by un-commenting the following lines of code.

JMS Listener

   <transportReceiver name="jms" class="org.apache.axis2.transport.jms.JMSListener">
       <parameter name="myQueueConnectionFactory" locked="false">
            <parameter name="java.naming.factory.initial" locked="false">com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory</parameter>
            <parameter name="java.naming.provider.url" locked="false">iiop://localhost:2809</parameter>
            <parameter name="transport.jms.ConnectionFactoryJNDIName" locked="false">QueueConnectionFactory</parameter>
            <parameter name="transport.jms.ConnectionFactoryType" locked="false">queue</parameter>
            <parameter name="transport.jms.Destination">samplequeue</parameter>
       </parameter>
 
        <parameter name="default" locked="false">
            <parameter name="java.naming.factory.initial" locked="false">com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory</parameter>
            <parameter name="java.naming.provider.url" locked="false">iiop://localhost:2809</parameter>                           
            <parameter name="transport.jms.ConnectionFactoryJNDIName" locked="false">QueueConnectionFactory</parameter>
            <parameter name="transport.jms.ConnectionFactoryType" locked="false">queue</parameter>
            <parameter name="transport.jms.Destination">samplequeue</parameter>
       </parameter>
   </transportReceiver>

JMS Sender

<transportSender name="jms" class="org.apache.axis2.transport.jms.JMSSender"/>

For details on the JMS configuration parameters used in the code segments above, see JMS Connection Factory Parameters.

6. Start IBM WebSphere Application Server and WSO2 ESB.

You now have instances of IBM WebSphere Application Server and WSO2 ESB configured and running. Next, see JMS Usecases for implementation details of various JMS use cases.
