Subscribe to a stopped queue

[mjuergens]

Hi,

can anybody tell me how to subscribe to a stopped queue.
the background:
I have an output queue which will send http request by a mdb to a remote site.
Now I want to start my application even if the remote site is down without having so much errors.
So my idea is to start the application with a stopped queue.
Unfortunately it seems to be impossible to subscribe to a stopped queue. Instead it creates a topic with the same name automaticly when the mdb subscribes.

so if I start the queue after the remote site is up there is nobody which will hear.

regards,

Michael

Could you be more clear when you post?

You can configure an MDB to be created in a stop state, and then manually start it via JMX. Search the forums. Refer to the jboss.xml DTD.

Sorry I ´m new to ejb. I thought I have to stop the queue to stop delivery.
Now it is clear.
thank you very much.
