that looks like a regression from https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-3224
you need to provide a specific destination or use the wildcard AnyDestination otherwise. It needs to be a bean reference: <bean id="anyDestination" class="org.apache.activemq.filter.AnyDestination" > then apply the destination property with something like: ... <property name="destination" > <idref bean="anyDestination"/> </property> can you reopen that issue and attach your xml.
