Got it, let me dig in, i got time now On Dec 8, 2016, at 12:46 PM, James McMahon <jsmcmah...@gmail.com<mailto:jsmcmah...@gmail.com>> wrote:
No problem Oleg. My fault for not being clear. The test works demonstrating the message delivery from RMQ exchange to RMQ queue. I was trying to be systematic, and eliminate points of possible failure, the binding of the exchange to the queue in RMQ being one. It does not work, NiFi to RMQ. I see that a connection is created by RMQ but that connection is blocking. I do not believe the content ever actually gets handed to the RMQ exchange by NiFi.

It appears you are saying that when you bound the Exchange to a legit routing key all works as expected (in NiFi), but then what? Could you please clarify? Sorry about that.

I generated a test message in the RMQ exchange using the RabbitMQ Management Console. My goal was to see if the Idle and blocking were problems or expected, and whether those would change when I sent a test message to the queue. It's also a good validation that I've bound the exchange and queue with a legit routing key. This worked - the test message was delivered successfully. I noticed that for each AMQP message nifi attempts to send to RMQ, RabbitMQ Management Console creates a Connection that is shown with State of blocking. and that is how it remains indefinitely. Nothing shows up in the exchange or in the queue.

Current release is 1.1.0, so 0.6.1 is about 3 releases behind and there were quite a few bug fixes and improvements since then that could shed some more light into your issue. Meanwhile I’ll see what I can dig up on my end. Cheers Oleg On Dec 8, 2016, at 8:00 AM, James McMahon <jsmcmah...@gmail.com<mailto:jsmcmah...@gmail.com>> wrote: Yes absolutely Oleg. I will try to figure out how to make my rabbitMQ queues explicitly active. I'll need to dig into that because it is not plainly obvious to me how / if that needs to be done. I'll dig for that.

Do i’ll get back to you, but as a joint debug step, can you please try to make your queens explicitly active and see if behavior changes? Also, what version of NiFi you are using?

No, no other stack traces or errors are indicated. I've got my Publish AMQP configuration set to DEBUG for Bulletin Level. I do get an error at the UI when I try to Start the Publish AMQP step after I have Stopped it. It tells me "PublishAMQP[id=47f88.....744] cannot be started because it is not stopped. Current state is STOPPING". I suspect this is a reflection of the WARN log message. In your experience must I take some action at the RabbitMQ Management Console to change my Exchange and Queue from Idle to Active? I believe that would happen automatically when AMQP messages starting hitting the exchange, but I thought it best to ask. I see nothing on the management console that alludes to enabling the exchange or the queue.

I generate a flow file with random text content using Generate Flow File, and then send to a rabbitMQ Exchange named nifiAbcX using Publish AMQP. My exchange is bound to queue AbcQ by key *.Abc.*, and my virtual host is nifiVhost. I have established my exchange as a Topic type. My NiFi instance and my RabbitMQ instance are co-located for development test purposes on the same server. It appears that my Publish AMQP does indeed generate output which it sends down the "success" output flow path, but at the RabbitMQ Management Console I find that my Exchange and my Queue are Idle and show no messages. My nifi log shows this Warning message: Failure while closing target resource AMQPublisher:amqp://test@127.0.0.1:5673/nifiVhost<http://test@127.0.0.1:5673/nifiVhost>, EXCHANGE:nifiAbcX, ROUTING_KEY:xyz.Abc.prod What is this telling me? Why am I seeing no messages posted to my rabbitMQ queue through the exchange? Thank you in advance.
