Hello, Zoran Thank you for the response!
I'm continuing my investigation. Seems, that shutdown of ActiveMQ + Camel never worked perfectly :) at least starting from activemq v5.8.0 with camel v2.10.3... or, probably, the example configuration shipped with release and managed in public access does not bring desired effect I have downloaded and tested following activemq releases: activemq v5.8.0 (camel v2.10.3) activemq v5.9.0 (camel v2.12.1) activemq v5.10.0 (camel v2.13.1) activemq v5.14.5 (camel v2.16.3) activemq v5.14.5 (camel v2.20.0-SNAPSHOT) /commit fef52d7eaabe205496319f9b459da5258d8678bb/ with tiny yet sufficient configuration based on recommendations <https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/master/examples/camel-example-management/src/main/resources/META-INF/spring/camel-context.xml> from Claus Ibsen: activemq.xml <http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/file/n5804170/activemq.xml> In fact, the last part of config. with props. placeholder and jetty can be excluded, but I've used activemq web console to produce messages. Also, I've raised error level for *org.apache.camel* logger in *log4j.properties* to dump more details. Testing procedure: start activemq service and wait until camel routes are up and running produce message via activemq web console verify that camel redirected message to other queue stop activemq service The result is always the same, activemq shuts down before camel. You may find details in attached log files: activemq-5-8-0.log <http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/file/n5804170/activemq-5-8-0.log> activemq-5-9-0.log <http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/file/n5804170/activemq-5-9-0.log> activemq-5-10-0.log <http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/file/n5804170/activemq-5-10-0.log> activemq-5-14-5.log <http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/file/n5804170/activemq-5-14-5.log> activemq-5-14-5-snapshot.log <http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/file/n5804170/activemq-5-14-5-snapshot.log> (Camel 2.20.0-SNAPSHOT) Additionally, I've tried to simulate clean shutdown sequence by stopping camel routes manually from jconsole after producing message and before stopping activemq service. No errors in log: activemq-5-14-5-jconsole.log <http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/file/n5804170/activemq-5-14-5-jconsole.log> . -- View this message in context: http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/ActiveMQ-shuts-down-before-Camel-routes-when-stopping-service-in-Windows-tp5803644p5804170.html Sent from the Camel - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
