Question

I installed the activeMQ package from ubuntu repositories and it’s properly set up and running on my ubuntu-server VM. The problem is that I cannot connect to the admin console.
I noticed that on windows bin the jetty.xml is imported on the activemq.xml so I did also in the ubunut-server. But still nothing. Can someone point out what else has to be done ?

EDIT
After suggetions I should have posted the config, so here it is.

<beans

    <transportConnector name="openwire" uri="tcp://0.0.0.0:61616"/>
  </transportConnectors>

</broker>

<!--    <import resource="jetty.xml"/>  -->
</beans>

When I include the jetty.xml the activeMQ doesn’t load. No messages on the activemq.log though.

The jetty.xml looks like:

I hope this helps.

Answer 1

You should ensure that the ports that are configured are available and allowed by whatever security policy you have in place. If Jetty can’t bind to 8161 then you will have an issue.
