Spring Integration Dispatcher has no subscribers for channel

I'm using spring integration and its support for MQTT; I saw the spring integration documentation and my simple test case is to publish a message on a MQTT topic. The Spring documentation is located here: http://docs.spring.io/spring-integration/reference/html/mqtt.html#_configuring_with_java_configuration_15

I'm using these versions:

  • spring 4.3.4
  • spring integration 4.3.5

I built this simple configuration class:

@Configuration
@IntegrationComponentScan
public class CommunicationServerApplication
{
    @Bean
    public MqttPahoClientFactory mqttClientFactory()
    {
        DefaultMqttPahoClientFactory factory = new DefaultMqttPahoClientFactory();
        factory.setServerURIs(mqttServerUris);
        if (StringUtils.hasText(mqttUsername) && StringUtils.hasText(mqttPassword))
        {

            factory.setUserName(mqttUsername);
            factory.setPassword(mqttPassword);
        }
        factory.setConnectionTimeout(mqttConnectionTimeout);
        factory.setKeepAliveInterval(mqttKeepAliveInterval);
        factory.setPersistence(new MqttDefaultFilePersistence(mqttPersistenceFileDirectory));
        return factory;
    }

    @Bean
    @ServiceActivator(inputChannel = "mqttOutboundChannel", autoStartup="true")
    public MessageHandler mqttOutbound()
    {
        String clientId = mqttClientId;
        if( !StringUtils.hasText(clientId) )
        {
            clientId = UUID.randomUUID().toString();
        }
        MqttPahoMessageHandler messageHandler = new MqttPahoMessageHandler(clientId, mqttClientFactory());
        messageHandler.setAsync(true);
        messageHandler.setDefaultTopic(mqttTopic);
        if( mqttQos >= 0 && mqttQos <=2 )
        {

            messageHandler.setDefaultQos(mqttQos);
        }
        return messageHandler;
    }

    @Bean
    public MessageChannel mqttOutboundChannel()
    {
        DirectChannel dc = new DirectChannel();
        return dc;
    }

    @MessagingGateway(defaultRequestChannel = "mqttOutboundChannel")
    public interface MqttMsgproducer
    {

        void sendToMqtt(String data);
    }
}

And then I used this simple test case:

@ContextConfiguration(value ={ "classpath:app-ctx.xml"})
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
public class SimpleMqttTestSuite
{
    private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(SimpleMqttTestSuite.class.getName());
    @Autowired
    private MqttMsgproducer sender;
    @Test
    public void startServerTest()
    {
        try
        {
            sender.sendToMqtt("Hello");
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            logger.error("Error", e);
        }
    }
}

My app-ctx.xml is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"

    <context:property-placeholder location="classpath:configuration.properties"
        order="0" ignore-resource-not-found="true" ignore-unresolvable="true" />    
</beans>

Executing the simple test, I'm having this error:

I can't figure what I'm missing in the configuration. Can anybody give to me a tip?

thank you

Your solution is incorrect - you must not subscribe within a channel bean definition. I believe your problem is that you are missing @EnableIntegration on the class.
