Orange is my favorite color

In my post on synchronizing Transfer ORM with TransferSync, I used Apache ActiveMQ 5.1.0 which was not reliable for me. After about a week of uptime, one of the hosts would invariably lose its connection to the queue and TransferSync would start throwing errors. I thought I had solved it via a wireFormat configuration option but it didn’t fix the problem.

Three weeks ago I grabbed the latest ActiveMQ 5.2.0 and I’ve been running it locally in development and production. I haven’t had a single queue failure since. There were over 100 bugs fixed in this release so I would strongly recommend upgrading if you’re using ActiveMQ with TransferSync to keep your cluster of ColdFusion servers synchronized.
