Hello All, Consider a simple camel route like this that invokes a one way service:
<camel:route errorHandlerRef="myDeadLetterErrorHandler"> <camel:from uri="inputDir"/> <camel:setHeader headerName="operationName"><constant>opName</constant></camel:setHeader> <camel:setHeader headerName="operationNamespace"><constant>opNamespace</constant></camel:setHeader> <camel:to uri="cxf:bean:myService?dataFormat=PAYLOAD"/> </camel:route> If the endpoint you are invoking is down, CXF will throw an exception: Caused by: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method)[:1.6.0_29] at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.doConnect(PlainSocketImpl.java:351)[:1.6.0_29] at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connectToAddress(PlainSocketImpl.java:213)[:1.6.0_29] at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(PlainSocketImpl.java:200)[:1.6.0_29] at java.net.SocksSocketImpl.connect(SocksSocketImpl.java:432)[:1.6.0_29] I thought that the error handler that I set on the route would handle this for me and I could configure the retries and retry interval. However, this exception never makes it back to the exchange on the route. I tried to set up a CXF phase interceptor to handle this, but I was unable to put the CXF exception onto the Camel exchange. Please see this related post on the CXF list for more details on the interceptor configuration: http://cxf.547215.n5.nabble.com/CXF-Camel-JMS-Endpoint-exception-handling-td4471174.html#a5490748 I also tried to grab the out of band headers from the exchanges and check the HTTP status for a 200 response, but these appear to only be available in POJO mode. I figured I could throw an exception for a status other than 200 since I have a one way service. I find this strange. Should an exception thrown in the CXF interceptor chain makes it way back to the Camel exchange? Am I missing something here?
