Ban Mule ESB from blocking some requests

Question

Some times (very frequent) mule ESB blocks some of SOAP Requests. How can i Stop Mule from doing that? i don't know what is the reason of blocking.

this is how i have configured http-listener in mule config :

<http:listener-config name="HTTP_listener" host="${MachineName}" port="${InboundPort}"  doc:name="HTTP listener Configuration"  />      
<flow name="etryFlow" >
   <http:listener allowedMethods="POST"  config-ref="HTTP_listener" path="/{name}" doc:name="HTTP"/>

    <set-payload value="#[app.registry.pairFactory.createInputStreamWithStringKeyInstance(message.inboundProperties['http.uri.params']['name'],payload))]"  />                                  
    <jms:outbound-endpoint connector-ref="jms-connector" ref="UnsortedOrders" />
    <logger level="INFO" doc:name="Logger" message="****Entry****" />                         
</flow> 

note : the banned requests are converted into BlockingTransferInputStream instead of BufferInputStream.

thank you.

** EDIT **

this is createInputStreamWithStringKeyInstance implementation :

public static Pair<String, byte[]> createByteArrayWithStringKeyInstance(String key, byte value[]) throws IOException {
    return new Pair<String, byte[]>(key, value);
}   

and Pair.java is a simple Serializable Class (same as JavaFX.Pair) Note : The input is a SOAP XML

Answer 1

Assuming createInputStreamWithStringKeyInstance (which you don't describe, so it's really hard to help you) returns an InputStream , Mule ends up building a JMS StreamMessage (per this call ).

From the Mule code, you can see it drains the streaming payload into a StreamMessage with this logic:

while ((len = value.read(buffer)) != -1)
{
    streamMessage.writeBytes(buffer, 0, len);
}

which is fine, provided the stream returned by createInputStreamWithStringKeyInstance doesn't do any fancy business behind the scene.

Also note that a JMS StreamMessage is probably not what you want. Did you read its Javadoc ? It says:

A StreamMessage object is used to send a stream of primitive types in the Java programming language.

I'm pretty sure you instead want to use a JMS BytesMessage . Mule creates such a message if the payload is a byte[] (per the above linked transformation logic) so you'd rather have a <object-to-byte-array-transformer/> right before the jms:outbound-endpoint .
