I experience the same problem using NMS with ActiveMQ 5.5.0 I've tried syntaxis: failover:(tcp://localhost:61616)?startupMaxReconnectAttempts=1&initialReconnectDelay=1
AND failover://(tcp://localhost:61616)?startupMaxReconnectAttempts=1&initialReconnectDelay=1 And it doesn't make any difference. From the client Log I can see that it still tries to reconnect to tcp://localhost:61616/ while doubling timeout: 10ms, 20ms, 40ms, 80ms etc... until reaches 30000ms. What can I do to fix the problem? -- View this message in context: http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/failover-startupMaxReconnectAttempts-doesn-t-do-anything-tp3735372p3986011.html Sent from the ActiveMQ - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
