I am using Sprin's DefaultMessageListenerContainer to consume messages.
What I noticed was "maximumRedeliveries" setting is not effective for
some reason. It just keeps redelivering messages.
Following is my connectionFactory setting.
According to the ActiveMQ documentation it seems a "Poison ack" is not
being sent back to the broker letting him know that the message was
considered a poison pill.
Am I missing anything here?
<bean id="connectionFactory"
class="org.apache.activemq.pool.PooledConnectionFactory">
<property name="connectionFactory">
<bean class="org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQConnectionFactory">
<property name="brokerURL" value="failover:(tcp://.....)" />
<property name="redeliveryPolicy">
<bean class="org.apache.activemq.RedeliveryPolicy">
<property name="maximumRedeliveries" value="3"/>
<property name="backOffMultiplier" value="2"/>
<property name="initialRedeliveryDelay"
value="50"/>
<property name="useExponentialBackOff"
value="true"/>
</bean>
</property>
</bean>
</property>
<property name="maximumActive" value="8" />
</bean>
Came across following

Is this still valid for the AMQ 4.1.0 as well? Since I am using Message
Driven POJOs I don't have access to low level message details. Any idea
is highly appreciated.
Thanks
