The AMQP 0-8 spec says
<quote>
     The realm name MUST start with either "/data" (for application
     resources) or "/admin" (for server administration resources).
     If the realm starts with any other path, the server MUST raise
     a connection exception with reply code 403 (access refused).
</quote>

So the error you are seeing is because your realm doesn't start with 
/data or /admin.
