I have an existing NServiceBus 2.6 application that I want to start moving to 3.0. I'm looking for the minimum change upgrade in the first instance. Is this as simple as replace the 2.6 DLLs with the 3.0 Nuget packages or are there other considerations?
For the most part the application migration is quite straight forward, but depending on your configuration and environment, you may need to make the following changes:
The new convention over configuration for endpoints may mean you will need to rename your endpoints to match your queue names (#andreasohlund has a good post about this).
persistence of saga, timeouts, subscriptions etc. now defaults to RavenDb, so if you use SQL Server to persist data, you need to make sure you have to correct profile and endpoint configuration. For SQL Server storage, make sure you add a reference to NServiceBus.NHibernate as it is no longer part of the core.
Error queues are now referenced differently using different configuration ie. use MessageForwardingInCaseOfFaultConfig instead of the regular MsmqTransportConfig error property. You should still be able to use it, but it will look for the MessageForwardingInCaseOfFaultConfig first.
Other than that, I don't think you need to do anything else to get you upgrade working. I modified some of my message definitions to take advantage of the new ICommand and IEvent interfaces as a way communicatinf intent more clearly.
Anyway, I'm sure there will be some cases that are specific to your environment that will require different changes but I hope this helps a bit.

Is it possible to replay all failed messages through nServiceBus without using ServiceControl/ServicePulse?
I'm using NServiceBus.Host.exe to host our endpoints. Our ServiceControl/ServicePulse database became corrupt. I was able to recreate it, but now I a few failed messages in our SQL database which are not visible through the ServicePulse.
Will this help?
Take a look at the readme.md
For people who want the functionality that this tool previously
provided please take one of the following actions
Return to source queue via either ServiceInsight or ServicePulse.
Return to source queue using custom scripting or code. This has the
added benefit enabling possible performance and usability
optimizations since, as the business owner, you have more context as
to how your error queue should be managed. For example using this
approach it is trivial for you to choose to batch multiple sends
inside the same Transaction. Manually return to source queue via any
of the MSMQ management tools. If you still want to use
MsmqReturnToSourceQueue.exe feel free to use the code inside this
repository to compile a copy.
You can look at the link provided to build your own script (to mach SQL) and trip the error message wrapper so you can push the stripped message back to the SQL queue.
Does this help?
If not please contact support at particular dot net and we will be glad to help :-)
There is nothing built into the Particular stack that I know of that will take care of this.
When I have ran into issues like this before I will usually setup a console application to send some commands into the endpoint and then setup a custom handler in the endpoint to fix the data inconsistencies. This allows you to test the "fix" in a dev/uat environment and then you have an automated solution for production to fix the problem.
When I debug the following code, I receive the message "System.TypeLoadException was caught" when I perform the Delete().
Using db As New ScholarshipEntities
db.ApplicationHistories.Where(Function(h) h.HistoryTypeId = 0).Delete()
db.SaveChanges()
End Using
I am using EF 6.1 in Visual Studio 2013. I also have the EntityFramework.Extended library installed.
I have no trouble querying results. I thought the bug might occur when the Where method has no results, but that is not the case. I also have no problem adding new models (.edmx), which was a problem some people with this exception had.
I just recently upgraded to EF 6.1 and installed the Extended library. This is my first time using one of the extended methods. I've un-installed and re-installed the nuget packages with no success.
IntelliTrace shows the following exceptions from the Delete() call (in order):
'EntityFramework.Reflection.DynamicProxy' does not contain a definition for 'InternalQuery'
Cannot implicitly convert type 'EntityFramework.Reflection.DynamicProxy' to 'System.Data.Entity.Core.Objects.ObjectQuery<Scholarship.ApplicationHistory>'
Could not load type 'System.Data.Entity.Core.Mapping.EntityContainerMapping'
I've added an issue on the Extended library's github.
Update
I've reinstalled EF and the EF.Extended library with no luck. I am able to use RemoveRange in its place. I am able to create a new project, install the packages, add a model mapped to the same database, and successfully use Delete. Obviously, the problem is in my current solution.
In my solution, I have an ASP.NET project and a regular library project. In the ASP project, a page's code behind calls a method in the library RemoveHistory. The library contains classes for the business logic and data access. Both classes implement interfaces. The actual Delete occurs in the data access class. My model also resides in this library project.
I may be able to create a completely new project and bring everything over, but that will take quite some time. Even if I did, I want to understand why it doesn't work in the first place, so that I don't have to repeat this process.
If you want to delete certain rows do it like that:
Using db As New ScholarshipEntities
db.ApplicationHistories.RemoveRange(db.ApplicationHistories.Where(Function(h) h.HistoryTypeId = 0))
db.SaveChanges()
End Using
If you want to remove single entity do it like that:
Using db As New ScholarshipEntities
db.ApplicationHistories.Remove(db.ApplicationHistories.Single(Function(h) h.HistoryTypeId = 0))
db.SaveChanges()
End Using
I "solved" the issue some time ago. I'll eventually go back to try and reproduce the problem to confirm my suspicions.
There were multiple versions of Entity Framework installed in the solution. This didn't appear to affect basic EF functionality, though I'm sure it did in some subtle, potentially buggy fashion.
Every time the solution was opened, NuGet would state that it couldn't complete uninstallation. Uninstalling and restoring via NuGet was unsuccessful, and the packages had to be deleted manually. Once completely removed, I installed the packages again. This resolved the issue.
I wish I could give a more technical answer, though the basic reason was forgetting to look closer at the packages folder and configuration.
This is a brand new project, so I can use the latest version of play.
I am using IntelliJ 13.
So I want to break the models/db/service layer because I will also have a job service (reading messages off a queue for example) that will need this server layer also.
Since slick is outside of play, how do I setup the datasource for this project, keeping in mind I will be connecting to multiple databases.
Do I need to create a custom config file for this?
web-app (play2!)
- service
service (models + dao)
models
dao
jobs (service)
I don't see any examples like this, which I find strange because I think pretty much any project would have to be setup this way in the real world (beyond simple examples).
Can someone show be sample code where things are broken down like this?
This example isn't broken into sub-projects, but it is very split up and would allow you to specify multiple databases.

In my project I am trying to do the setting where in I can update the dynamic properties in the server/application without even restarting it.
We face this problem that whenever we have to update or change some properties which are dynamic in nature, then every time we have to restart the server/application and this results in unavailability of the server for that time stamp.
I have already found one tool Archaius-ZooKeeper to set it.https://github.com/Netflix/archaius/
We are trying to do it for JBoss servers where we use war file to deploy on server.
Please suggest are there any other method or tool or technology that can be used to set it.
Thanks in advance.
You could consider jRebel, allows you to redeploy your app without any downtime, then you can use jRebel Remoting to redeploy from eclipse to a remote server
You may use Zookeeper. You have to create a Znode and add the properties in the Znode. All your servers/applications should read from this Znode and also put an watch on this Znode for data changes.
Alternately, you may use a database to store the properties along with their modification time. Whenever you change the value of a property, the corresponding modification time is changed. All your applications/servers keep pulling the delta at some intervals (may be 2 secs/ 5 secs etc.).
Or you may have the properties hosted on a web server, or on NFS, or on some distributed cache etc. All your applications/servers keep reading it at some intervals for detecting any changes.
You can use Spring Cloud Zookeeper. I shared a little example here.
I am using RavenDb across multiple projects and solutions to access three different databases that are all part of the same product. For instance, I have multiple MVC projects that fetch user info and some data out of the 'web' centric database and the 'backend' database, using '-' for the id override (but I need this only for a subset of classes in the 'web' db). And then I have another 'backend' database that is used by services (as well as the MVC projects). And finally a third temp/scratch database I use by another set of services to build the backend db. And of course, all of these are being accessed from different class libraries and even console test, seed, and integration test apps.
Managing all of these is becoming quite a nuisance. Every time I create a new console app or class library that access the db, I have to setup config and raven packages for each project, make sure indexes are built, etc.... Not to mention running update on all nuget updates, or in my case, installing a new unstable version of the server/client binaries.
Is there an easier way to manage this?
I tried to abstract the DocumentStore creation and initialization, as well as index creation into it own project and reference that. But the other projects then had to manually add newtonsoft.json (and nlog) from the package directory.
As well, I am getting the following when I try and abstract the DocumentStore into a class with a static property:
StackTrace of un-disposed document store recorded. Please make sure to dispose any document store in the tests in order to avoid race conditions in tests.
Anyone have any thoughts on handling these issues?
Thanks
I don't think that the manual addition of the references is a big issue, but you can add the actual nuget references as well.
Note that the DocumentStore not disposed error is something that only happened in the unstable (debug builds), and won't happen on release builds.
