Hi all,

I'm experiencing some reliability issues with ActiveMQ in G 2.1.4 in
combination with the application I'm working on now. Basically I see the same
three issues described in GERONIMO-4257[0].  Unfortunately I can't reproduce
the issues reliably, but still I'm not comfortable to put G into production at
its current state.

[0] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4257

As a stop gap solution before G 2.2 is stable I'm considering upgrading
ActiveMQ in G 2.1.4. Running with a stand alone broker using ActiveMQ 5.2 seems
to better, but I'm not entirely confident that we won't run into any unintended
classpath issues while still having ActiveMQ 4.1.2-G20090207 deployed in the
application server. Further It'd be convenient to have the 5.2 broker deployed
in the application server.

What I hope to elicit from you on this list is some feedback, is it reasonable,
etc...

So, here's my plan:

undeploy org.apache.geronimo.plugins/activemq-console-jetty/2.1.4/car
undeploy org.apache.geronimo.configs/activemq-ra/2.1.4/car
undeploy org.apache.geronimo.configs/activemq-broker/2.1.4/car

install-library org.apache.activemq/activemq-core/5.2.0/jar
install-library org.apache.activemq/activeio-core/3.1.0/jar
install-library org.apache.activemq/activemq-rar/5.2.0/jar

# Seems like openejb depends on activemq-broker so i now need to
# create a plugin that artifact-aliases ...configs/activemq-broker/2.1.4/car
# and starts a 5.2.0 broker.
deploy said module

#Is there a uninstall-library command, or is "rm -rf whatever" fine?
rm -rf $G/repository/org/apache/activemq/activemq-core/4.1.2-G20090207
rm -rf $G/repository/org/apache/activemq/activeio-core/3.0.1

That's pretty much it. Are there any glaring omissions in this plan? Anyone
else done anything similar before? Is it reasonable? Any feedback much
appreciated. Thanks!
