Thank you for the speedy response. Yes, it is very difficult to upgrade systems
in my particular area for a variety of reasons. I would not have expected
issues with the messaging system to be the area that caused me problems. Our
system only sends a few thousand messages per day. That seems like a tiny
amount compared to what ActiveMQ can handle.
I am checking this through WildFly's admin console, and this is what I can see:
Consumer Count: 1
Message Count: 0
Messages Added: 1061 (going up gradually)
Scheduled Count: 0
I'm not sure how to check the thread dump. I've never found any errors in any
of my application's or WildFly's logs.
Thank you,
Patrick R. Thomas

You weren't kidding about the problem being on an "old version." WildFly 10 was
released in 2016 and shipped with ActiveMQ Artemis 1.1.0. There's been almost
50 releases of ActiveMQ Artemis and around 30 releases of WildFly in the last 6
years since then.
Things I would check:
- On the queue:
- Number of consumers
- Number of messages
- Number of messages in delivery (this indicates how many messages have
been dispatched to consumers but have not yet been acknowledged)
- On the consumer:
- Thread dump to see if the consumer is stuck for any reason
