Thanks for the response Claus. The reason why I am using 4.x version is because it is using the JDK 1.5 version and I have an ETL application which is using JDK 1.5 on the other end which talks to the ActiveMQ JMS server to pool the messages from the queue.
To begin with, I was using the latest version 5.6.0 of ActiveMQ and I created a sample Queue and also dropped few messages in the queue using the web based admin monitor console. But, when my ETL application is trying to communicate with the JMS server I am getting the below error( I suspected that the JDK version's are not compatible ). java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file Hence, I downgraded the JMS server to version 4.x because it is using JDK 1.5. How ever, I could not create a queue on the JMS server to post the messages but when I was reading the ActiveMQ user guide, it has some sample JAVA programs which are using a queue called "MyQueue". I did few changes on the ETL application to look for the messages inside the queue name "MyQueue" and it was able communicate successfully with the JMS server but there are no messages available to be processed on the JMS server inside the queue name "MyQueue". Can you please suggest me if I am missing some thing here or if there is any alternative way that I go for ?
