How to set the ActiveMQ redeliveryPolicy on a queue?

How do I set the redeliveryPolicy in ActiveMQ on a Queue?

1) In the doc, see: activeMQ Redelivery, the explain that you should set it on the ConnectionFactory or Connection. But I want to use different value's for开发者_如何转开发 different Queue's.

2) Apart from that, I don't seem to get it work. Setting it on the connection factory in Spring (I am using activemq 5.4.2. with Spring 3.0) like this don't seem to have any effect:

<amq:connectionFactory id="amqConnectionFactory" brokerURL="${jms.factory.url}" >
    <amq:properties>
        <amq:redeliveryPolicy maximumRedeliveries="6" initialRedeliveryDelay="15000" useExponentialBackOff="true" backOffMultiplier="5"/>
    </amq:properties>
</amq:connectionFactory>

I also tried to set it as property on the defined Queue, but that also seem to be ignored as the redelivery occurs sooner that the defined values:

<amq:queue id="jmsQueueDeclarationSnd"  physicalName="${jms.queue.declaration.snd}" >
    <amq:properties>
        <amq:redeliveryPolicy maximumRedeliveries="6" initialRedeliveryDelay="15000" useExponentialBackOff="true" backOffMultiplier="5"/>
    </amq:properties>
</amq:queue>

Thanks

I too was using the method shown by Ivan above for amq:connectionFactory

Whilst upgrading to ActiveMQ 5.7.0 I noticed this no longer works (since the implementation of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-3224). Anyway after reading a better post on the ActiveMQ forums I currently use :-

<amq:queue id="emailQueue" physicalName="emailQueue" />
<amq:queue id="smsQueue" physicalName="smsQueue" />

<!-- Wait 15 seconds first re-delivery, then 45, 135, 405, 1215, 3645 seconds -->
<bean id="redeliveryPolicy" class="org.apache.activemq.RedeliveryPolicy">
    <property name="backOffMultiplier" value="3" />
    <property name="initialRedeliveryDelay" value="15000" />
    <property name="maximumRedeliveries" value="6" />
    <property name="queue" value="*" />
    <property name="redeliveryDelay" value="15000" />
    <property name="useExponentialBackOff" value="true" />
</bean>

<amq:connectionFactory id="jmsFactory" brokerURL="yourProtocol/BrokerURL">
    <property name="redeliveryPolicy" ref="redeliveryPolicy" />
</amq:connectionFactory>

Note that for any messages that fail to be redelivered after 6 retries, ActiveMQ will create a DLQ.emailQueue' or DLQ.smsQueue and enqueue the message on that queue (dequeuing it from the original queue).

I got it working by setting it on the factory as done above but only when creating the connection factory as a Spring bean and not through XBean as shown above. This is because the xsd doesn't allow you to set the redeliveryPolicy as an object, but merely as a String. After setting the cache level to Consumer in Spring's DefaultMessageListenerContainer, it all worked.

On the queue , it seems that you simple can set a delivery policy... Strange, as I would like to have different settings for different queue's/topics. Just imagine you have a slow and faster queue, or a external system that you connect to that needs more time to recover.. Maybe this feature is still to be implemented

You can set the redeliveryPolicy within the amq namespace like this:

<amq:connectionFactory id="jmsRedeliverConnectionFactory" brokerURL="vm://localhost">
  <amq:redeliveryPolicy>
    <amq:redeliveryPolicy maximumRedeliveries="5" initialRedeliveryDelay="1000" useExponentialBackOff="true" backOffMultiplier="5" />
  </amq:redeliveryPolicy>
</amq:connectionFactory>

I could not get ActiveMQ (5.7.0) to recognize my redelivery policy when I defined it using <amq:properties> on the ConnectionFactory or the Queue (it kept using the default redelivery policy). What worked for me is this:

• Create the RedeliveryPolicy as a standalone bean, then Spring-reference it in the ConnectionFactory
• Create an explicit DLQ and Spring-reference it in the RedeliveryPolicy

Spring config as follows:

<amq:connectionFactory id="jmsFactory" brokerURL="vm://localhost" redeliveryPolicy="#activeMQRedeliveryPolicy" />

<amq:redeliveryPolicy id="activeMQRedeliveryPolicy" destination="#myDLQ" useExponentialBackOff="true" backOffMultiplier="3" maximumRedeliveries="4" />

<amq:queue id="myDLQ" physicalName="DLQ.myDLQ" />
