I have a ruby script that creates a message using AMQP in RabbitMQ.

# above code sets up config for connecting to RabbitMQ via APMQ
AMQP.start(:host => 'localhost') do
  amq = MQ.new
  amq.queue('initiate', :durable => true).publish(message_id, :persistent => true)
  AMQP.stop{ EM.stop }
end

If the RabbitMQ server is restarted, the message is no longer in the initiate queue (or any queue, for that matter). What am I doing wrong that the message is not persistent? I’ve also tried explicitly creating a durable exchange, and binding the queue to that exchange, but the message is still deleted after RabbitMQ restart.

    Funny I was just Googling for the same problem. RabbitMQ 2.2.0, default options. In my case, Ruby clients using rubygem-amqp-0.6.7-3.el5 from EPEL. Durable queues bound to Durable fanout exchange, publishing messages with :persistent => true. Messages lost on server restart.
