As I believe adding configuration files into a product is the responsibility
of the product team. Not yours. In fact what we do is to add an entry into
the bin.xml to copy qpid configuration files into the product distribution
from the carbon core distribution that is built in the middle (which is
wrong as I believe). I could have blindly modified all bin.xml files to copy
configuration. But if a product did not need qpid/event then having the
config files alone in the dist is pointless.

As I mentioned earlier as well, the issue in this particular case is not
using the correct qpid libs. That is why the issue went away when you built
event which eventually installed the latest qpid libs.

It used to look for configuration files in conf/qpid/ and that is what I saw
in your error message. So if you had built event feature, you would not have
got this error.

Thanks,
Danushka
