Spring integration gateway routing

I have a problem with spring integration basically I'am trying to create chain which will invoke 1 of several services and returns result as reply to chain gateway for further processing.
<int:chain input-channel="inputChannel" output-channel="outputChannel">
<int:header-enricher>
<int:header name="temporalPayload" expression="payload"/>
<int:header name="matcher" value="other" />
</int:header-enricher>
<int:gateway request-channel="routerChannel" reply-channel="replyChannel" error-channel="errorChannel"/>
<int:transformer expression="headers.temporalPayload"/>
</int:chain>
<int:router input-channel="routerChannel" expression="headers.matcher.matches('(test)|(test2)')?headers.matcher:'other'" >
<int:mapping value="test1" channel="channel1"/>
<int:mapping value="test2" channel="channel2"/>
<int:mapping value="other" channel="channel3" />
</int:router>
<int:service-activator input-channel="channel1" output-channel="replyChannel" ref="service1" method="handle"/>
<int:service-activator input-channel="channel2" output-channel="replyChannel" ref="service2" method="handle"/>
<int:service-activator input-channel="channel3" output-channel="replyChannel" ref="service3" method="handle"/>
Problem that gateway does not receive reply to channel "replyChannel" from service-activator. What I'am doing wrong?

You can turn on DEBUG logging level for org.springframework.integration category and observe how your message travels.
On the other hand, in most cases you don’t need that reply-Channel on the gateway and just rely on the replyChannel header populated by the gateway. In this case you even have to remove the output-Channel on the service-activators.
There might be some subscriber for your repjyChannel who steals messages for the Gateway.
You can try without reply-Channel or investigate logs as I suggested above.

Sending messages with Spring Messaging (Websockets) from a RabbitMQ Listener class

Is it possible to send messages with SimpMessageSendingOperations from a RabbitMQ listener bean?
I have the following listener class:
public class MyJobListener {
#Autowired
public SimpMessageSendingOperations messagingTemplate;
public void handleJob(JobMessage jobMessage) {
doWork(jobMessage);
messagingTemplate.convertAndSend("/topic/greetings", "TEST");
}
}
My Rabbit config file is:
<!-- RabbitMQ configuration -->
<rabbit:connection-factory id="connectionFactory" host="${rabbitmq.connection.host}" port="${rabbitmq.connection.port}" />
<rabbit:admin connection-factory="connectionFactory" />
<rabbit:template id="amqpTemplate" connection-factory="connectionFactory" />
<!-- Queues -->
<rabbit:queue id="myQueue" name="myQueue" />
<!-- Listeners -->
<bean id="myListener01" class="com.xxx.MyJobListener" />
<bean id="myListener02" class="com.xxx.MyJobListener" />
<bean id="myListener03" class="com.xxx.MyJobListener" />
<bean id="myListener04" class="com.xxx.MyJobListener" />
<rabbit:listener-container connection-factory="connectionFactory" >
<rabbit:listener ref="myListener01" method="handleJob" queue-names="myQueue" />
<rabbit:listener ref="myListener02" method="handleJob" queue-names="myQueue" />
<rabbit:listener ref="myListener03" method="handleJob" queue-names="myQueue" />
<rabbit:listener ref="myListener04" method="handleJob" queue-names="myQueue" />
</rabbit:listener-container>
<!-- Bindings -->
<rabbit:direct-exchange name="directexchange" >
<rabbit:bindings>
<rabbit:binding queue="myQueue"/>
</rabbit:bindings>
</rabbit:direct-exchange>
When message is expected to be sent (messagingTemplate.convertAndSend("/topic/greetings", "TEST")) nothing happens, but if I do the same thing but in a #Controller everything works fine (message is sent through websocket to the browser)
I need to do this to send a notification to the user when the job is finished.

After many tests I changed my rabbit configuration file, leaving only one listener:
<!-- Listeners -->
<bean id="myListener01" class="com.xxx.MyJobListener" />
<rabbit:listener-container connection-factory="connectionFactory" error-handler="queueErrorHandler" >
<rabbit:listener ref="myListener01" method="handleJob" queue-names="myQueue" />
</rabbit:listener-container>
and now it works almost randomly. It's strange, but each 2 calls it works. I mean, two times yes, two times not, two times yes, two times not... and so... It's very strange. I think there is something with the rabbit config...

Definitely is Spring Security configuration. If I disable Spring Security everything works fine. I will find out what it is, and then I'll post the answer here.

I was able to solve it.
The problem was not Spring Security, the problem was I was declarating twice the websocket message broker:
<websocket:message-broker application-destination-prefix="/app" >
<websocket:stomp-endpoint path="/websocket" >
<websocket:sockjs />
</websocket:stomp-endpoint>
<websocket:simple-broker prefix="/topic,/user" />
</websocket:message-broker>
These lines resides in my websocket.xml, and this file was imported more than one time because of an "ugly" import sentences distributions along my .xml spring files.
After ordering these imports and ensuring the bean is only created once everything works fine.
May this helps!

AMQP Prevent automatic message reads

I'm using Spring AMQP to listen to messages (configuration has listener-container, service-activator, chain, bridge & aggregators). At application startup AMQP starts reading messages which we don't want. I tried auto-startup=false but it isn't working. Am I missing anything?
Also, if it does work then how do I programmatically start them again? I tried listenerContainer.start();. What about aggregators & others?
EDIT
Following is my config:

OK. Thank you for the configuration!
Not sure why you need AMQP-bascked channels, but the main issue for you is exactly there.
But pay attention, the <int-amqp:channel> has auto-startup="false" option as well.
And you will be ready to receive data from the AMQP, you will need just start() those channels by their id.

Receiving: MessageDeliveryException: Dispatcher has no subscribers using inbound-channel-adapter in 2 different spring integration modules

I have 2 spring integration context files using similar file-based integration pattern. Both scan directory looking for a message and both work if deployed by themselves. If I include both modules into another spring context they are loading without issues. However only second one is working, and the first one is getting: MessageDeliveryException: Dispatcher has no subscribers. I've attempted to combine them into a single context file with no positive gain. We are currently on version 2.1.3 of Spring Integration and version 2.1 of Spring Integration File. Any ideas are greatly appreciated!

2014-08-27 11:01:01,530 ERROR [batchJobRunExecuter-1][:] org.springframework.integration.handler.LoggingHandler : org.springframework.integration.MessageDeliveryException: Dispatcher has no subscribers. at org.springframework.integration.dispatcher.UnicastingDispatcher.doDispatch(Unica‌​stingDispatcher.java:108) at org.springframework.integration.dispatcher.UnicastingDispatcher.dispatch(Unicast‌​ingDispatcher.java:101)

I see the issue in your config:
<int:service-activator id="batchJobLaunchService" ref="inPaymentService" input-channel="file-inpayment-channel"
method="schedule" />
and
<int:service-activator id="batchJobLaunchService" ref="launchService" input-channel="scheduler-file-in-channel"
method="schedule" />
They assume to be different services, but at the same time use the same id - batchJobLaunchService.
Spring by default allows to do that, but only the last bean definition with the same id wins. That's why the <service-activator> for the launchService hasn't been pupolated and hence the EventDrivenConsumer bean hasn't been subscribed to the scheduler-file-in-channel.
Be careful and use unique id for all your beans.
It isn't so easy to throw expection on the duplication case, but if you switch on INFO for the org.springframework category you'll the message that one bean overrrides another.

Spring Integration - header lost

I'm new to Spring Integration and Spring Integration AMQP.
I have the following code:
<bean id="enricher" class="soft.Enricher"/>
<amqp:inbound-channel-adapter queue-names="QUEUE1" channel="amqpInboundChannel"/>
<int:channel id="amqpInboundChannel">
<int:interceptors>
<int:wire-tap channel="logger"/>
</int:interceptors>
</int:channel>
<int:header-enricher input-channel="amqpInboundChannel" output-channel="routingChannel">
<int:header name="store" value="sj" />
</int:header-enricher>
<int:channel id="routingChannel" />
<int:header-value-router input-channel="routingChannel" header-name="store">
<int:mapping value="sj" channel="channelSJ" />
<int:mapping value="jy" channel="channelJY" />
</int:header-value-router>
<amqp:outbound-channel-adapter channel="channelSJ" exchange-name="ex_store" routing-key="sj" amqp-template="rabbitTemplate"/>
<amqp:outbound-channel-adapter channel="channelJY" exchange-name="ex_store" routing-key="jy" amqp-template="rabbitTemplate"/>
<int:channel id="channelSJ" />
<int:channel id="channelJY" />
<int:logging-channel-adapter id="logger" level="ERROR" />
The setup is the following:
Everything is working fine except that headers are lost when a message is picked up by the inbound-channel-adapter.
Likewise the header being enriched called "store" is also lost when the message is being send to the exchange using the outbound-channel-adapter.
This is how a message is looking before being picked up by the inbound-channel-adapter:
This is how the same message is looking after the whole process (notice no headers)

I think your problem is described here:
"By default only standard AMQP properties (e.g. contentType) will be copied to and from Spring Integration MessageHeaders. Any user-defined headers within the AMQP MessageProperties will NOT be copied to or from an AMQP Message unless explicitly identified via 'requestHeaderNames' and/or 'replyHeaderNames' properties of this HeaderMapper. If you need to copy all user-defined headers simply use wild-card character ''.*"
So you need to define your own custom instance of DefaultAmqpHeaderMapper and configure the inbound-channel-adapter with it. See here.
It might look something like this:
<bean id="myHeaderMapper" class="org.springframework.integration.amqp.support.DefaultAmqpHeaderMapper">
<property name="requestHeaderNames" value="*"/>
<property name="replyHeaderNames" value="*"/>
</bean>
<amqp:inbound-channel-adapter queue-names="QUEUE1" channel="amqpInboundChannel"
header-mapper="myHeaderMapper"/>
