I believe this was caused due to the numerous "stale log file" problems that
were resolved in 5.5. However, there being plenty of logs still left over
with ages that pre-date the oldest possible message, I decided to remove
those I knew to be stale.
I restarted and had the above exception. Now, I read through
http://activemq.apache.org/kahadb.html and decided to try
ignoreMissingJournalfiles="true" which started the broker. I then removed
the config entry and restarted. This time it fired up fine.
For future reference is this "correct" to get a broker back up and running
again? If so I'll add this to the kahadb page.
