This chapter provides the following information for each release:
- A link to the full release notes which includes all issues resolved in the release.
- A brief list of "highlights" when applicable.
- If necessary, specific steps required when upgrading from the previous version.
- Note: If the upgrade spans multiple versions then the steps from each version need to be followed in order.
- Note: Follow the general upgrade procedure outlined in the Upgrading the Broker chapter in addition to any version-specific upgrade instructions outlined here.
2.17.0
Highlights:
- Message-level authorization similar to ActiveMQ 5.x.
- A count of addresses and queues is now available from the management API.
- You can now reload the broker's configuration from disk via the management API rather than waiting for the periodic disk scan to pick it up
- Performance improvements on libaio journal.
- New command-line option to transfer messages.
- Performance improvements for the wildcard address manager.
- JDBC datasource property values can now be masked.
- Lots of usability improvements to the Hawtio 2 based web console introduced in 2.16.0
- New management method to create a core bridge using JSON-based configuration input.
2.16.0
Highlights:
- Configurable namespace for temporary queues
- AMQP Server Connectivity
- "Basic"
SecurityManager
implementation that supports replication - Consumer window size support for individual STOMP clients
- Improved JDBC connection management
- New web console based on Hawtio 2
- Performance optimizations (i.e. caching) for authentication and authorization
- Support for admin objects in the JCA resource adapter to facilitate deployment into 3rd-party Java EE application servers
- Ability to prevent an acceptor from automatically starting
Upgrading from older versions
Due to ARTEMIS-2893 the fundamental way user management was implemented had to change to avoid data integrity issues related to concurrent modification. From a user's perspective two main things changed:
-
User management is no longer possible using the
artemis user
commands when the broker is offline. Of course users are still free to modify the properties files directly in this situation. -
The parameters of the
artemis user
commands changed. Instead of using something like this:./artemis user add --user guest --password guest --role admin
Use this instead:
./artemis user add --user-command-user guest --user-command-password guest --role admin
In short, use
user-command-user
in lieu ofuser
anduser-command-password
in lieu ofpassword
. Bothuser
andpassword
parameters now apply to the connection used to send the command to the broker.For additional details see ARTEMIS-2893 and ARTEMIS-3010
2.15.0
Highlights:
- Ability to use FQQN syntax for both
security-settings
and JNDI lookup - Support pausing dispatch during group rebalance (to avoid potential out-of-order consumption)
- Socks5h support
2.14.0
Highlights:
- Management methods to update diverts
- Ability to "disable" a queue so that messages are not routed to it
- Support JVM GC & thread metrics
- Support for resetting queue properties by unsetting them in
broker.xml
- Undeploy diverts by removing them from
broker.xml
- Add
addressMemoryUsagePercentage
andaddressSize
as metrics
Upgrading from older versions
This is likely a rare situation, but it's worth mentioning here anyway. Prior
to 2.14.0 if you configured a parameter on a queue
in broker.xml
(e.g.
max-consumers
) and then later removed that setting the configured value you
set would remain. This has changed in 2.14.0 via ARTEMIS-2797. Any value that
is not explicitly set in broker.xml
will be set back to either the static
default or the dynamic default configured in the address-settings (e.g. via
default-max-consumers
in this example). Therefore, ensure any existing queues
have all the needed parameters set in broker.xml
values before upgrading.
2.13.0
Highlights:
- Management methods for an address' duplicate ID cache to check the cache's size and clear it
- Support for min/max expiry-delay
- Per-acceptor security domains
- Command-line
check
tool for checking the health of a broker - Support disabling metrics per address via the
enable-metrics
address setting - Improvements to the audit logging
- Speed optimizations for the
HierarchicalObjectRepository
, an internal object used to store address and security settings
Upgrading from older versions
Version 2.13.0 added new audit logging
which is logged at INFO
level and can be very verbose. The
logging.properties
shipped with this new version is set up to filter this out
by default. If your logging.properties
isn't updated appropriately this audit
logging will likely appear in your console and artemis.log
file assuming
you're using a logging configuration close to the default. Add this to your
logging.properties
:
# to enable audit change the level to INFO
logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.base.level=ERROR
logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.base.handlers=AUDIT_FILE
logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.base.useParentHandlers=false
logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.resource.level=ERROR
logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.resource.handlers=AUDIT_FILE
logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.resource.useParentHandlers=false
logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.message.level=ERROR
logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.message.handlers=AUDIT_FILE
logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.message.useParentHandlers=false
...
#Audit logger

- Ability to configure a "customizer" for the embedded web server
- Improved logging for errors when starting an
acceptor
to more easily identify theacceptor
which has the problem. - The CLI will now read the
broker.xml
to find the defaultconnector
URL for commands which require it (e.g.consumer
,producer
, etc.)

2.10.0
This was mainly a bug-fix release with a notable dependency change impacting version upgrade.
Upgrading from 2.9.0
Due to the WildFly dependency upgrade the broker start scripts/configuration need to be adjusted after upgrading.
On *nix
Locate this statement in bin/artemis
:
WILDFLY_COMMON="$ARTEMIS_HOME/lib/wildfly-common-1.5.1.Final.jar"
This needs to be replaced with this:
WILDFLY_COMMON="$ARTEMIS_HOME/lib/wildfly-common-1.5.2.Final.jar"
On Windows
Locate this part of JAVA_ARGS
in etc/artemis.profile.cmd
respectively bin/artemis-service.xml
:
%ARTEMIS_HOME%\lib\wildfly-common-1.5.1.Final.jar
This needs to be replaced with this:
%ARTEMIS_HOME%\lib\wildfly-common-1.5.2.Final.jar
2.9.0
This was a light release. It included a handful of bug fixes, a few improvements, and one major new feature.
Highlights:
- Support exporting metrics.
2.8.1
This was mainly a bug-fix release with a notable dependency change impacting version upgrade.
Upgrading from 2.8.0
Due to the dependency upgrade made on ARTEMIS-2319 the broker start scripts need to be adjusted after upgrading.
On *nix
Locate this if
statement in bin/artemis
:
if [ -z "$LOG_MANAGER" ] ; then
# this is the one found when the server was created
LOG_MANAGER="$ARTEMIS_HOME/lib/jboss-logmanager-2.0.3.Final.jar"
fi
This needs to be replaced with this block:
if [ -z "$LOG_MANAGER" ] ; then
# this is the one found when the server was created
LOG_MANAGER="$ARTEMIS_HOME/lib/jboss-logmanager-2.1.10.Final.jar"
fi
WILDFLY_COMMON=`ls $ARTEMIS_HOME/lib/wildfly-common*jar 2>/dev/null`
if [ -z "$WILDFLY_COMMON" ] ; then
# this is the one found when the server was created
WILDFLY_COMMON="$ARTEMIS_HOME/lib/wildfly-common-1.5.1.Final.jar"
fi
Notice that the jboss-logmanager
version has changed and there is also a new wildfly-common
library.
Not much further down there is this line:
-Xbootclasspath/a:"$LOG_MANAGER" \
This line should be changed to be:
-Xbootclasspath/a:"$LOG_MANAGER:$WILDFLY_COMMON" \
On Windows
Locate this part of JAVA_ARGS
in etc/artemis.profile.cmd
respectively bin/artemis-service.xml
:
-Xbootclasspath/a:%ARTEMIS_HOME%\lib\jboss-logmanager-2.1.10.Final.jar
This needs to be replaced with this:

Upgrading from 2.4.0
- Due to changes from ARTEMIS-1644 any
acceptor
that needs to be compatible with HornetQ and/or Artemis 1.x clients needs to haveanycastPrefix=jms.queue.;multicastPrefix=jms.topic.
in theacceptor
url. This prefix used to be configured automatically behind the scenes when the broker detected these old types of clients, but that broke certain use-cases with no possible work-around. See ARTEMIS-1644 for more details.
2.4.0
Highlights:
- JMX configuration via XML rather than having to use system properties via command line or start script.
- Configuration of max frame payload length for STOMP web-socket.
- Ability to configure HA using JDBC persistence.
- Implement role-based access control for management objects.
Upgrading from 2.3.0
-
Create
<ARTEMIS_INSTANCE>/etc/management.xml
. At the very least, the file must contain this:<management-context xmlns="http://activemq.org/schema"/>
This configures role based authorisation for JMX. Read more in the Management documentation.
-
If configured, remove the Jolokia war file from the
web
element in<ARTEMIS_INSTANCE>/etc/bootstrap.xml
:<app url="jolokia" war="jolokia.war"/>
This is no longer required as the Jolokia REST interface is now integrated into the console web application.
If the following is absent and you desire to deploy the web console then add:
<app url="console" war="console.war"/>
Note: the Jolokia REST interface URL will now be at
http://<host>:<port>/console/jolokia
