Hornetq 2.2.5: Failed to create session because of Connection is null

[ericxiaomingzhao]

Hello,

recently We often got the following error in Jboss 6.1.0 Final Version /Hornetq 2.2.5 version, we changed the connection-ttl into 10mins recently.

hornetq/hornetq-jms.xml:                <connection-ttl>600000</connection-ttl>

the connection-ttl is the connection timeout but we do have message to publish (since we are running 72 hours stability run).

Does anyone can help on this? 

Any workaround or fix for this issue?

I'm not sure what the problem could be, but then again HornetQ 2.2.5.Final is over 5 years old now.  In case you weren't aware the HornetQ code-base was donated to Apache over 2 years ago and has continued life as the Apache ActiveMQ Artemis broker.  I recommend you move to a more recent release and see if that doesn't fix the issue.
