Welcome

HermesJMS is an extensible console that helps you interact with JMS providers making it easy to browse or seach queues and topics, copy messages around and delete them. It fully integrates with JNDI letting you discover administered objects stored, create JMS sessions from the connection factories and use any destinations found. Many providers include a plugin that uses the native API to do non-JMS things like getting queue depths (and other statistics) or finding queue and topic names.

Look at the forums for common issues and if you work in finance then check out the FIX protocol support.

Downloading and Webstarting

You can get the latest stable 1.13 version from Sourceforge or a recent build from HEAD.

You can webstart a fully functional version of HermesJMS. Read the Installation instructions as it will write some local files. If you already have a 1.10 or later version of HermesJMS then it will use whatever existing configuration is in your .hermes directory. Webstart is a funny thing, it works for some and not others - hopefully it will work for you.

Launch	JVM	Notes
	1.5+	hermesrc.py is not loaded because of a classloading problem.

Donating

HermesJMS is and always will be free software but is licensed in a more commercially friendly way. I do have costs to pay to host the site and licenses for some of the (non-opensource friendly) tools I use. It would be nice if I could cover these with donations from happy users so if you feel inclined then please donate. Every few dollars, pounds or whatever is very welcome.

Reporting Issues

If you've got an issue browse the Forums first and maybe raise an issue in JIRA (you'll have to sign up for an account first to create issues). If you see an issue you want fixing, then please vote for it to help prioritize.

SoapUI integrates with HermesJMS

SoapUI, the excellent testing tool, now supports JMS and integrates with Hermes so I've created a new Hermes forum to cover SoapUI.

hermesjms.com domain broken

My http://hermesjms.com domain is currently pointing to the wrong place - it expired, I didn't get warned and I've been travelling for work so didn't notice for a few days. I'm trying to get it resolved but in the meantime use http://hermesjms.org
