That error message is pretty clear as to what "kind of error" occurred: 
the client tried to publish a message to an exchange that doesn't exist.

In AMQP such errors will result in the channel getting closed by the 
server. I know nothing about the C client, but depending on how it 
handles this server-initiated channel closure handshake, that might be 
the reason for why you see the client getting stuck.
