JMS Class Path JAR Upgrade

After upgrading the JARs in the class path for WebSphere is not connecting to ActiveMQ Classic.

Previous JARs:

  • activemq-client-5.14.5.jar
  • hawtbuf-1.11.jar
  • slf4j-api-1.7.13.jar

Updated JARs:

  • activemq-client-5.17.6.jar
  • hawtbuf-1.11.jar
  • slf4j-api-1.7.36.jar

Are there any additional JARs that need to be added, or do I need to change the external initial context factory? My current External Initial Context Factory:

org.apache.activemq.jndi.ActiveMQInitialContextFactory

Solution

  • ActiveMQ v5.16.7 is available with JDK 8 support. This includes the fix for the security vulnerability (CVE-2023-46604).
