Sorry you're having trouble connecting hawtio to your broker JVMs! All thats required for hawtio to connect to any remove JVM is that a jolokia agent can be added to it. This can be done in various ways though.
By default if a JVM (e.g. an ActiveMQ broker) has no jolokia or jetty at all, you can use the Local tab of the Connect plugin (in 1.2.x of hawtio-default.war). The Local tab lists all local Java processes on the same machine (like JConsole does). For JVMs not running a jolokia agent already, there's a start button (on the right) which will dynamically add the jolokia JVM agent into the JVM. You can then click on the Agent URL link to connect into it. I just tried this on a local ActiveMQ 5.8.0 distro with Jetty disabled & it works a treat. Note that the Local plugin only works when the JVM running hawtio has the hawtio-local-jvm-mbean plugin installed (which depends on the JVM finding the com.sun.tools.attach.VirtualMachine API that jconsole uses and is included in the hawtio-default.war). This also only works when the process is on the same machine as the JVM running hawtio. So a safer option is just to make sure there's a jolokia agent running in each JVM you want to manage with hawtio. There are a few different agents you can use: http://jolokia.org/agent.html e.g. a WAR agent, an OSGi agent or a JVM agent. If there's jetty, then try the WAR agent; otherwise try the JVM agent: http://jolokia.org/agent/jvm.html All this isn't an issue of ActiveMQ 5.9.x or later; as jolokia and hawtio are installed by default; but hopefully if you can get jolokia working (e.g. test it by accessing http://host:port/jolokia to see if you can view the jolokia version info). If you can get jolokia working in your JVM; then the Remote tab on the Connect plugin in hawtio should be able to connect to your JVM,. Hope that helps; do let us know how you get on getting Jolokia running in your broker JVM.
