What is in RabbitMQ log (when you see the exception)?

Your understanding is not correct. Persistent messages survive RabbitMQ
restart. They are deleted from the queue when they are acknowledged.

Since you use channel.BasicConsume("hello-queue", true, consumer),
messages are considered to be acknowledged as soon as RabbitMQ sends
them out to consumers. There is no need to ack them (and acking them
will result in a protocol exception).

QueueingConsumer will accumulate deliveries locally in a shared queue.
My guess is that QueueingConsumer shuts the shared internal queue down
when a protocol exception occurs.

Judging from your code you don’t need to use a QueueingConsumer. Simply
subclass DefaultConsumer and override HandleDelivery.

HTH.
