Hi,
I'm trying to configure synapse to receive syslog messages (RFC 5424) via tcp,
parse them, and according to certain properties (sender?), send as JMS messages
to different topics in a messaging provider.
At the moment I'm trying to get the first part running - setup a tcp-listener
that accepts
plain text messages - and for now, just writes the message to HTTP (as in
sample 265).
What I've done so far:
1. Tried the TCPServer by copying "axis2-transport-tcp-1.0.0.jar" to
$SYNAPSE_HOME/libs
and using the following config:
1.1 axis2.xml
<transportReceiver name="tcp" class="org.apache.axis2.transport.tcp.TCPServer">
<parameter name="port">6060</parameter>
</transportReceiver>
<transportSender name="tcp"
class="org.apache.axis2.transport.tcp.TCPTransportSender"/>
1.2 start_TCPsrv_HTTP.xml
<definitions xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse";>
<!-- Input is a TCP request with a SYSLOG message file -->
<!-- Definitions for TCPServer: -->
<proxy name="tcp2Http" transports="tcp">
<target>
<inSequence>
<log level="full"/>
</inSequence>
<outSequence>
<log level="full"/>
<send/>
</outSequence>
<endpoint>
<address uri="http://mdzhlfesb01:50000"/>
</endpoint>
</target>
</proxy>
</definitions>
It seems however, that only SOAP messages are supported by the TCPServer class
(kept on getting error messages about incorrect message format)
Sent the message "hello world" and got:
Unexpected character 'h' (code 104) in prolog; expected '<'
2. Found this link about support for content-type being added to the
tcp-listener
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/synapse-user/201102.mbox/raw/%[email protected]%3e/1
I found this web page and downloaded "axis2-transport-tcp-1.1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"
from here:
http://maven.wso2.org/nexus/content/groups/wso2-public/org/apache/axis2/axis2-transport-tcp/1.1.0-SNAPSHOT/
and copied it to $SYNAPSE_HOME/libs (renamed axis2-transport-tcp-1.0.0.jar -->
axis2-transport-tcp-1.0.0.jar.old)
1.1 axis2.xml
<transportReceiver name="tcp"
class="org.apache.axis2.transport.tcp.TCPTransportListener">
<parameter name="transport.tcp.contentType">text/plain</parameter>
<parameter name="transport.tcp.port">6060</parameter>
</transportReceiver>
<transportSender name="tcp"
class="org.apache.axis2.transport.tcp.TCPTransportSender"/>
1.2 start_TCPlis_HTTP.xml
<!-- Taken from synapse sample 265: TCP -> HTTP -->
<definitions xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse";>
<!-- Definitions for TCPTransportListener -->
<proxy name="tcp2http" transports="tcp" startOnLoad="true" trace="disable">
<target>
<endpoint>
<address uri="http://mdzhlfesb01:50000"/>
</endpoint>
<inSequence>
<property name="messageType" value="text/plain" scope="axis2"/>
<property name="OUT_ONLY" value="true"/>
<log level="full"/>
</inSequence>
</target>
</proxy>
</definitions>
At startup, I get the following warnings:
2013-07-05T13:31:40,INFO
,mdzhsfesb01,MSGMED,AbstractTransportListener.java:176,TCP Listener started
2013-07-05T13:31:40,WARN
,mdzhsfesb01,MSGMED,AbstractTransportListener.java:224,Unable to configure the
service tcp2http for the TCP transport: Service doesn't have configuration
information for transport tcp. This service is being marked as faulty and will
not be available over the TCP transport.
2013-07-05T13:31:40,WARN
,mdzhsfesb01,MSGMED,AbstractTransportListener.java:192,Disabling the tcp

the service
It seems I'm missing some configuration information for TCP, and the TCP
service is then disabled.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Peter
