rmohr / docker-activemq

[Unmaintained] Dockerfiles for various versions of ActiveMQ

Unmaintained: This is no longer under active development. I really loved seeing that the images were found so useful by so many people. Sadly I did not have the time for quite a while to follow up on the requests or help establishing a healthy community around it. Also my past attempt to transfer this repo to the activemq org failed. Therefore I am going to archive this and I hope that you will find another place for great activemq containers.

docker-activemq

Docker file for trusted builds of ActiveMQ on https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/rmohr/activemq/.

Run the latest container with:

docker pull rmohr/activemq
docker run -p 61616:61616 -p 8161:8161 rmohr/activemq

The JMX broker listens on port 61616 and the Web Console on port 8161.

Customizing configuration and persistence location

By default data and configuration is stored inside the container and will be lost after the container has been shut down and removed. To persist these files you can mount these directories to directories on your host system:

docker run -p 61616:61616 -p 8161:8161 \
           -v /your/persistent/dir/conf:/opt/activemq/conf \
           -v /your/persistent/dir/data:/opt/activemq/data \
           rmohr/activemq

ActiveMQ expects that some configuration files already exists, so they won't be created automatically, instead you have to create them on your own before starting the container. If you want to start with the default configuration you can initialize your directories using some intermediate container:

docker run --user root --rm -ti \
  -v /your/persistent/dir/conf:/mnt/conf \
  -v /your/persistent/dir/data:/mnt/data \
  rmohr/activemq:5.15.4-alpine /bin/sh

This will bring up a shell, so you can just execute the following commands inside this intermediate container to copy the default configuration to your host directory:

chown activemq:activemq /mnt/conf
chown activemq:activemq /mnt/data
cp -a /opt/activemq/conf/* /mnt/conf/
cp -a /opt/activemq/data/* /mnt/data/
exit

The last command will stop and remove the intermediate container. Your directories are now initialized and you can run ActiveMQ as described above.

docker-activemq's Issues

Move to maintained base Java docker image

Change from Openjdk (by Oracle) to AdoptOpenJDK base images. The latest docker images do have a few security issues to them already.

user activemq problem AWS with efs

Hello,
the chown activemq:activemq with user activemq have problems when deploying on a amazon efs binding volumes (they work with root user and aws changes the volume ownership so we take a permission denied on pid in data folder).
Is there any way to set the activemq dockerfile user with parameters?

Thank you.

Upgrade to v5.14.5

latest 5.14.x

add ssl support

ssl://localhost:7443

Using keytool, create a certificate for the broker:

• keytool -genkey -alias broker -keyalg RSA -keystore broker.ks
  Export the broker’s certificate so it can be shared with clients:
• keytool -export -alias broker -keystore broker.ks -file broker_cert
  Create a certificate/keystore for the client:
• keytool -genkey -alias client -keyalg RSA -keystore client.ks
  Create a truststore for the client, and import the broker’s certificate. This establishes that the client “trusts” the broker:
• keytool -import -alias broker -keystore client.ts -file broker_cert

Before starting the broker’s VM set the ACTIVEMQ_SSL_OPTS environment variable so that it knows to use the broker keystore. (note that in previous versions of ActiveMQ this property was called SSL_OPTS in some scripts. As of v5.12.0 all scripts use ACTIVEMQ_SSL_OPTS)

export ACTIVEMQ_SSL_OPTS = -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=/path/to/broker.ks -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=password

docker-compose stop exits with 137 code and take long time

When shutting down activemq docker container using docker-compose stop the docker-compose waits for a few seconds and then finally kills the container.

The activemq should listen to shutdown signal and gracefully shutdown itself.
I do not know if this is problem with this docker image or the ActiveMQ does not support it at all.
Eg. the mongo container supports this exiting much more quickly and with exit code 0.

Simple docker-compose:

$ cat docker-compose.yml
version: '3'
services:
  activemq:
    image: rmohr/activemq
    ports:
      - "61616:61616" # TCP
      - "8161:8161"   # UI

Run it and stop it

$ docker-compose up -d activemq
Starting docker_activemq_1 ... done

$ docker-compose stop
Stopping docker_activemq_1 ... done

$ docker-compose ps
      Name                     Command                State     Ports
---------------------------------------------------------------------
docker_activemq_1   /bin/sh -c bin/activemq co ...   Exit 137

How i can add -XX:+PrintGCDetails to get GC details

I am facing some performance issues so i want to enable -XX:+PrintGCDetails, is there any option to do this?

Upgrade to v 5.13.1

Do you mind adding support for latest activemq version? v5.13.1

What is the user and password?

I want to get access to console, but it ask for a user and password, could you share that info please?

New version

I got 5.16.3 working. If I submit a PR will that be accepted or this is no longer in development?

Support for ActiveMQ 5.16.0 (Jul 1, 2020)

Hi, great work!
Please consider releasing the latest activemq.

Latest release is ActiveMQ 5.16.0 (Jul 1, 2020)

cli utilities not working

After connecting into the docker container, no cli utiliy is working except create.
This error message comes up, even after setting jmx=true in activemq.xml.

Broker not available at: service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://localhost:1099/jmxrmi

Question - Can I query the queues using REST?

Hi folks,

I need a rest api to query/search messages in the queue. Can I use this image?
Can someone recommend one if not?

Downloaded packages must be validated in the image

It is a good idea to ensure that the distribution in the image has not been compromised probably checking hash values and/or gpg signatures.

permission denied if no docker user

I have setup docker in Ubuntu 16.04 with offical setup steps.

When run you docker image, it failed to start because it cannot create /activemq/data/kahadb directory. After I manually give 777 permission on /activemq/data (root:root), it can success start and create kahadb directory with 999:docker as user:group.

Here is my docker-compose config:

    activemq:
        image: rmohr/activemq:latest
        environment:
            ACTIVEMQ_DATA: "/var/lib/activemq/data"
        volumes:
            - ./data/activemq/data:/var/lib/activemq/data

Database /opt/activemq/data/kahadb/lock is locked by another server.

Randomly sometimes when I am running the image I will get this error message and the server won't start.
I am running on Windows Docker for Desktop . Just the basic command.
docker run -p 61616:61616 -p 8161:8161 rmohr/activemq

Plz tell me the passwd of root ?

as the title said.

Support for 5.15.0

As per AmazonMQ Documentation

Q: Which versions of ActiveMQ does Amazon MQ support?

Amazon MQ provides support for ActiveMQ versions 5.15.0, 5.15.6, 5.15.8, 5.15.9, and 5.15.10.

It appears that there is no support in this repository for version 5.15.0.

Unfortunately, this means that anyone who is currently stuck using the AmazonMQ equivalent of ActiveMQ 5.15.0 and wants to start the transition to using Docker for their application development and deployment must manually generate Dockerfiles for that version of ActiveMQ.

I am creating this issue to capture this reality and hope either to see the change realized by someone else or to make the change myself depending on my personal schedule.

For persistence you need to own the folders

After exiting the intermediate alpine image you have to chmod the persistence folders in order to use them in another container (the one with activemq running).
I know that it may sound obvious, but still I have lost some time for this reason. Maybe you could add it as a remainder in the readme.
Thanks.

INFO: Starting in foreground, this is just for debugging purposes (stop process by pressing CTRL+C)

the ctrl + z doesn't work after server start

latest points to version 5.15.6

docker image inspect rmohr/activemq shows it points to 5.15.6, not 5.15.9

Change from 'java' to 'openjdk' image

There is a notice on the official java image that it is deprecated in favour of openjdk

ps: unrecognized option: p

I'm using activemq alpine linux image rmohr/activemq:5.15.6-alpine
I see ps: unrecognized option: p on startup
I find out that alpine ps is from busybox and it is not included -p switch for ps.
activemq startup script is using ps -p to see JAVA process
adding procps in image might solve that

apk --no-cache add procps

Wrong data path in readme

The image writes data to /opt/activemq/data not /var/activemq/data

Also, your first example should probably read ACTIVEMQ_DATA=/var/lib/activemq/data not ACTIVEMQ_DATA=var/lib/activemq/data

override login credentials

I want to override the default user/password (admin/admin).
I tried with:
docker run -p 61616:61616 -p 8161:8161 -e "activemq.username=user" -e "activemq.password=Password" rmohr/activemq

but it won't help..

Change link owner of $AMQ_HOME to activemq:activemq

Currently the link from AMQ_HOME to /opt/$ACTIVEMQ is owned by root.

Change docker scripts to the Apache license (like ActiveMQ)

Would it be possible to switch the license from MIT to Apache.
I consider that given that this is for an Apache project it should share the similar type of license.
And this way we can eventually contribute these changes upstream.

Make this project an official docker image

I want to help with this process, are you interested in helping with maintenance if we achieve it ?

Maximum memory definition missed

As I can see, there is no possibility for memory configuration

In the disaster37/activemq it tunned by wrapper settings:

self.replace_all(ACTIVEMQ_HOME + "/bin/linux-x86-64/wrapper.conf", "#?wrapper.java.initmemory=\d+", 'wrapper.java.initmemory=' + str(minMemoryInMB))
self.replace_all(ACTIVEMQ_HOME + "/bin/linux-x86-64/wrapper.conf", "#?wrapper.java.maxmemory=\d+", 'wrapper.java.maxmemory=' + str(maxMemoryInMb))

Maybe I just missed this feature?

Support for ActiveMQ 15.17.0

Here is Dockerfile for version 5.17.0. The new version does not work inside symlink so it has to be directly in directory.

I would create a PR but the repository can not be forked anymore and it also seems to be not maintained anymore.
But I see @rmohr active in other areas, so maybe he could explain or make some statement on future of this repo? (please :) )

I have also reported the symlink issue in upstream https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-8591.

set activemq.xml file path from env

I'm trying to set different file path for activemq.xml config file.
I've tried to set COMMANDLIND_ARGS=xbean:file:./myconfig.xml or ACTIVEMQ_OPTS=xbean:file:./myconfig.xml
Both did not work.
How can I set different file path for config file?

ActiveMQ 5.15.X image

Any chance of 5.15.X image please?

Many thanks.

Container status as exited

if we changed

CMD ["/bin/sh", "-c", "/opt/apache/activemq/bin/activemq console"]
to
CMD ["/bin/sh", "-c", "/opt/apache/activemq/bin/activemq start"]

why container status is showing as exited not running?
