Hi, We have an ActiveMQ instance (version 4.1.1) in production, exhibiting the following behaviour: There is a backlog of 1000 messages in the queue that are not being delivered. However, new messages *are* being delivered. For example: If 3 new messages are posted to the queue, we see that the queue size grows to 1003, the messages are delivered to the client, and the queue size shrinks back to 1000. Those 1000 messages just are not being delivered.
I thought maybe the messages were somehow "corrupted". To test this, I made a copy of the ActiveMQ data directory and ran another instance of ActiveMQ with that data. The messages flew off the queue, so that tells me there is nothing wrong with the messages themselves. I'm guessing that our ActiveMQ in production will require a restart in order to get these 1000 messages delivered. Has anyone seen this issue before? What could be causing it? Your help is urgently requested. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Old-unexpired-messages-not-delivered--new-messages-are-tp15356503s2354p15356503.html Sent from the ActiveMQ - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
