Hello, When we provide a failover URL where the first URL is that of a replicate broker, the connection will trigger an IllegalStateException which is not caught anywhere. Thus making the broker crash and the session creation fail on the client-side.
Shouldn't the "close" method log the exception silently instead of crashing the broker? *Code* String brokerUrl = "failover:(amqp://localhost:5672,amqp://localhost:10352)"; ConnectionFactory connectionFactory = new JmsConnectionFactory(brokerUrl); Connection connection = connectionFactory.createConnection(); Session session = connection.createSession(false, Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE); *Test case* Assuming that the broker on *localhost:5672 *is alive but as a *REPLICATE* and the one on* localhost:10352* as the *MASTER* *Stack trace* java.lang.IllegalStateException: The virtual host state of UNAVAILABLE does not permit this operation. at org.apache.qpid.server.virtualhost.berkeleydb.BDBHAReplicaVirtualHostImpl.throwUnsupportedForReplica(BDBHAReplicaVirtualHostImpl.java:567) at org.apache.qpid.server.virtualhost.berkeleydb.BDBHAReplicaVirtualHostImpl.deregisterConnection(BDBHAReplicaVirtualHostImpl.java:562) at org.apache.qpid.server.protocol.v1_0.Connection_1_0.closed(Connection_1_0.java:282) at org.apache.qpid.server.protocol.v1_0.AMQPConnection_1_0.closed(AMQPConnection_1_0.java:470) at org.apache.qpid.server.transport.MultiVersionProtocolEngine.closed(MultiVersionProtocolEngine.java:112) at org.apache.qpid.server.transport.NonBlockingConnection.shutdown(NonBlockingConnection.java:359) at org.apache.qpid.server.transport.NonBlockingConnection.doWork(NonBlockingConnection.java:299) at org.apache.qpid.server.transport.NetworkConnectionScheduler.processConnection(NetworkConnectionScheduler.java:108) at org.apache.qpid.server.transport.SelectorThread$ConnectionProcessor.processConnection(SelectorThread.java:499) at org.apache.qpid.server.transport.SelectorThread$SelectionTask.performSelect(SelectorThread.java:337) at org.apache.qpid.server.transport.SelectorThread$SelectionTask.run(SelectorThread.java:86) at org.apache.qpid.server.transport.SelectorThread.run(SelectorThread.java:457) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1145) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:615) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:744) If you invert the order of the URLs to put the master first or simply kill the REPLICATE broker, then there will be no exception triggered.
