Re: Virtual topics, custom prefix limitations

I could have sworn I had read something on the wiki that indicated this used to work (and that failing to exclude the queues would result in duplicate messages), but I can't find it so maybe I'm thinking of something else. Thanks for humoring my faulty memory. So what happened when you included

We may need to support standard subscribers to the virtual topic, but it's not a drop-dead requirement. Having said that, we verified the broker network is working for standard queues/topics using the above configuration, but not virtual topics, even after removing . VT's are only working when

BTW, do you have consumers consuming directly from the virtual topic, or only via queues? If you have no topic consumers, I believe you can just remove your excludedDestinations entry and everything will work as intended. As I understand it, the problems only occur when you have a mix of queue

Ok, just to be clear, we define the virtual topic statically (the one used by the producer), not the individual consumer queues. I hope it's the former because client queues for virtual topics are named using "app-version" convention for grouping related consumers; we can't define those names

Tim, The documentation on this topic (haha!) was never 100% clear to me. Here's what we want to achieve given our architecture: Topology 12 broker network (full-mesh) All destinations dynamic (no static definitions) Clients connect and reconnect with random brokers (preference to local)

The description on the Network of Brokers wiki page says that what you're trying to do won't work without those flags set, so you should upgrade if this is a feature you need to use. Tim On Oct 13, 2016 6:33 PM, "Devlin" wrote: > Hi Tim, > > We managed to get working

Hi Tim, We managed to get working virtual topics in a 2 broker network, but only for cases where producer and consumers are using the same broker; consumers connected to the broker where the producer is not present did not receive messages. We confirmed the network functions as expected for
