Re: Mule closes down when the ActiveMQ server is shut down.

Hi Geir,

Thanks for sharing your configuration. You said earlier in this thread that SimpleRetryConnectionStrategy is working fine for you with mule 2.0.2.
I also tried your configuration with Mule 2.02 & Activemq5.0. i am still facing the same problem with SimpleRetryConnectionStrategy. i have an inbound endpoint that subscribe to a topic. I shutdown my broker & when i bring the broker back online the endpoint is not able to receive anymore messages.
I am getting following error. Do you have any idea why i am getting this error? It would be great if you share your complete config file along with namespaces.

Thanks & regards,
JackyMule

Hi Geir,

Can you share your config file & SimpleRetryConnectionStrategy?
I want to have a look to it.

Cheers,

I am running on Mule 2.0.2

How do I prevent my Mule instance from shutting down when the ActiveMQ server is shut down.

I have implemented a SimpleRetryConnectionStrategy which works Ok, if I try to launch the Mule with no running ActiveMQ, and it gets it connection when when I the ActiveMQ has started up.
