<p class="MsoNormal">Hi, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a system where I need to not lose any message in any way while processing, so I have a local rabbitmq server where the publisher is located. The messages in these servers are then pulled from a central location where they are consumed.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Producer - > B Node 1 ---------------- > A Node (Shovel) --------- > Consumer<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For this I have a fairly basic shovel configured in the A Node to pull from the processing servers. At first everything works fine, but after some time of the connection being idle the shovel seems to stop working. When a new message is
published to the B Node at first it appears to be sent, but not acked, so in the administration plugin the queue shows: Ready messages: 0 Unacked messages: 1 Total: 1. After a while the message gets requeued and never taken by the shovel. In the A Node messages
can be published to queues and exchanges and messages can be consumed, so it’s not a problem with rabbitmq itself.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I try restarting the server using rabbitmqctl it seems to stop the node, but then it hangs and any effort to start or stop hangs, I have to kill the erlang beam process.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m using RabbitMQ 2.8.1 with Erlang R14B04 on CentOS 6. These are the latest versions I found RPM’s for.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anyone has any idea what’s happening here and what I might be able to do to fix this?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
