I've seen this behaviour as well and did not find a way around it besides limiting the number of _startup_ reconnect attempts. Append something like "?startupMaxReconnectAttempts=5" to the Url.

Hi, I am using Camel to connect to ActiveMQ and it fails to shutdown when the ActiveMQComponent cannot make a connection to the broker with the failover protocol (activemq version 5.12.0). The problem seems to be that the failover transport tries to connect to the broker in an endless loop on its own thread that cannot be interrupted. I think the problem is in the PooledTaskRunner: there is a shutdown field which is set to true when camel shuts down, but it appears as false to the thread that is running the endless loop. I am currently at a loss what to do. I want to keep the maximum retries setting for the failover transport on indefinite, since I do not know when the the broker is back online. At the same time, it has to be possible to shut down the application even if there never was a connection to the ActiveMQ broker. Has anybody seen this problem before and can give some advice? Is this a bug in ActiveMQ? Attached there is some code that reproduces the problem - it never terminates. Regards, Anna The code: public class ShutdownBug { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { DefaultCamelContext camelContext = new DefaultCamelContext(); ActiveMQComponent activeMQComponent = new ActiveMQComponent(); activeMQComponent.setBrokerURL("failover:(http://localhost:61616)"); camelContext.addComponent("activemq", activeMQComponent); camelContext.addRoutes(new RouteBuilder() { @Override public void configure() { from("activemq:queue:myqueue").to("stream:out"); } }); Thread startThread = new Thread(new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { try { camelContext.start(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } }); startThread.start(); startThread.interrupt(); startThread.join(); camelContext.stop(); } }
