Accessing Apache ActiveMQ via JMX throws Exception

I'm using a fresh ActiveMQ 5.8.0 installation, where I have a message in a queue called 'testing'. I also replaced the ACTIVEMQ_SUNJMX line in bin/activemq to enable JMX:

ACTIVEMQ_SUNJMX_START="-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=1099 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false"

Then I query JMX via the following code:

    try {
        JMXConnector connector = JMXConnectorFactory.connect(new JMXServiceURL("service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://localhost:1099/jmxrmi"));
        connector.connect();
        MBeanServerConnection connection = connector.getMBeanServerConnection();

        ObjectName mbeanName = new ObjectName("org.apache.activemq:BrokerName=localhost,Type=Broker");
        BrokerViewMBean mbean = MBeanServerInvocationHandler.newProxyInstance(connection, mbeanName, BrokerViewMBean.class, true);

        System.out.println("Id:" + mbean.getBrokerId()); // here the exception will be thrown
    }
    catch (Exception x) {
        x.printStackTrace();
    }

The Exception is thrown when accessing the mbean.

I checked that that port is listening, VisualVM also shows me the mbeans, ideas?

回答1:

The fact that bean names have changed is documented on the 5.8.0 release page.

So your ObjectName should be of the form:

    ObjectName mbeanName = new ObjectName("org.apache.activemq:type=Broker,brokerName=localhost");

Excellent answer. Here you have an example of use: API Docs

There is also something important that changes from 5.7 to 5.8. The default URL for JMX services goes from:

service:jmx:rmi://localhost/jndi/rmi://localhost:1099/jmxrmi

to:

service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://localhost:1099/jmxrmi

Lovely question and answer too, I was having a hard time configuring JMX. ActiveMQ docs isn't up-to-date in this regard. Eg : http://activemq.apache.org/jmx.html doesn't say that from 5.8.0 onwards "SUNJMX" becomes "ACTIVEMQ_SUNJMX_START".

The config provided by OP , ie : ACTIVEMQ_SUNJMX_START="-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=1099 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false"

, and the corresponding code is the one that really worked for me. Thanks ! ( I am using ActiveMQ 5.8)
