Error FTPing with JCA FTP Adapter


BEA-381971


Invoke JCA outbound service failed with connection error, exception: com.bea.wli.sb.transports.jca.JCATransportException: oracle.tip.adapter.sa.api.JCABindingException: oracle.tip.adapter.sa.impl.fw.ext.org.collaxa.thirdparty.apache.wsif.WSIFException: servicebus:/WSDL/ACME_PurchaseOrder/PV_FtpToACME [ Put_ptt::Put(body) ] - WSIF JCA Execute of operation 'Put' failed due to: Error in establishing connection to FTP Server.
Error in establishing connection to FTP Server.
Unable to establish connection to server.
; nested exception is:
BINDING.JCA-11438
Error in establishing connection to FTP Server.
Error in establishing connection to FTP Server.
Unable to establish connection to server.
Please ensure hostname and port specified to login to the server is correct.



The FTP Put is done in a Local Transaction:

in the log you will find:

JCA_FRAMEWORK_AND_ADAPTER Starting JCA LocalTransaction

and when the error occurs:

JCA_FRAMEWORK_AND_ADAPTER Rolling back JCA LocalTransaction

For the NoTransConnEventListener of pool 'eis/Ftp/ACMEFtpAdapter' CONNECTION_CLOSED event received

servicebus:/WSDL/ACME_PurchaseOrder/PV_FtpToACME [ Put_ptt::Put(body) ] - Marking this exception as Locally Retryable

WSIFCache: Closing CCI Connection

In fact the JCA Adapter for File and FTP do not support XA Transaction, but only Local Transactions.


The message is retried the number of times determined by the Business Service generated on top of the JCA Adapter:

Transport Configuration
Protocol jca
Load Balancing Algorithm round-robin
Endpoint URI
jca://eis/Ftp/ACMEFtpAdapter
Retry Count 2
Retry Iteration Interval 30
Retry Application Errors No

So in this case the message will be tried 3 times (2 retries) before erroring out. The local transaction only is retried, while the global transaction is still active. This makes the global transaction last 60 seconds.

Be aware that these local transactions are executed as part of the Proxy Service transaction: if you define 10 retries at 1 minute interval, your global transaction will be open for 10 minutes. So this is not a viable solution.

This is what you will see at the end of the TX:

<BEA-010213> <Message-Driven EJB: RequestEJB-7263521924761754948--49bf0c34.133cb4ae47d.-7fe0's transaction was rolled back.

Go to the Server/MOnitoring/JTA/Transaction tab and you will see the transaction open for the entire duration of the retries. The transactionId is also traced in the logs.

We were consuming the message from a JMS queue, and redirecting on error to an ErrorQueue.
