BEA AquaLogic Service Bus (ALSB) provides interoperability with WebSphere MQ. For example, you can configure a Web Service Proxy in ALSB that sends messages to a MQ queue. Then you can have Web Service Clients using that Web Service Proxy to integrate applications with MQ, without having to install any MQ software on the clients. The Web Service Proxy can also be part of a composite application.

I have created a step-by-step guide to connect ALSB to MQ which can be found here: ConnectingALSBwithMQ

The two main steps are:

1 Bind MQ JMS objects to ALSB's JNDI tree
2 Configure the Business Service

I've also developed a small utility program, "ForeignJNDIHelper" to bind the foreign JMS objects to ALSB's JNDI tree. The utility can be downloaded here: foreignjndihelper

• I am trying to connect alsb with tibco ems 4.2.0 in a similar fashion.

  1)I modified the startup class to first lookup for a topicConnectionFactory and topic in the tibco ems jndi. 2)Initialize the weblogic jndi context and bind the above lookedup objects. 3) Create a business service to interact with the same. 4) Test the business service using the console tester. Steps 1 and 2 were successful. I got affirmitive console messages. Step 3 was successful. At step 4 I am getting an exception - ---------------------------------------------------------------- avax.jms.JMSException: [J2EE:160048]JNDI lookup of the JMS connection factory TibTopicConnectionFactory failed: javax.naming.ConfigurationException: Call to NamingManager.getObjectInstance() failed: [Root exception is java.lang.NullPointerException]; remaining name '' -------------------------------------------------------------- Even though the bind to the weblogic jndi was successful, then why is the lookup failing? Thanks, Ramachandra
