I just tested this and it works fine as far as I can tell. Here's what I did:
1) created a fresh instance of ActiveMQ Artemis 2.33.0 2) copied your settings into broker.xml 3) updated the wildcard configuration to account for the '/' in the address settings match 4) started the broker 5) used the "artemis consumer --destination queue:///tmp/foo --message-count 0" command to auto-create the address & queue 5) used the "artemis producer" command to send messages to it 6) waited After a bit this is what I saw in the log: 2024-05-31 13:56:13,851 INFO [org.apache.activemq.artemis.core.server] AMQ224112: Auto removing queue /tmp/foo with queueID=37 on address=/tmp/foo 2024-05-31 13:57:43,851 INFO [org.apache.activemq.artemis.core.server] AMQ224113: Auto removing address /tmp/foo The change you referenced in relation to ARTEMIS-4125 was for a very specific use-case involving non-durable JMS topic subscriptions. In that use-case the temporary resources are cleaned up by org.apache.activemq.artemis.core.server.impl.ServerSessionImpl.TempQueueCleanerUpper and that was the code that was changed in the commit you referenced. In the normal address/queue clean-up use-case the addresses and queues are cleaned up by org.apache.activemq.artemis.core.postoffice.impl.PostOfficeImpl.AddressQueueReaper. The change to TempQueueCleanerUpper doesn't have any relevance here. If you can work up some specific steps to demonstrate a real problem I'll investigate further. Otherwise everything seems to be working normally.
