Java – Active MQ – HelloWorld example exception

activemqexceptionjakarta-eejavajms

I'm trying to run the hello world example found here

I added activemq-all-5.5.1.jar to the libraries already

It builds successfully with the following warning

warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 1.6

But it doesn't run, I get this exception

And the same exception for thread 3 and 4

Can anybody help me with that please?

This is a problem with dependencies (javax/jms/JMSException is in multiple jars), which occurs e.g. with javaee-api (5 or 6) - this jar lacks some method bodies for several classes. activemq-all-5.5.1.jar also contains javax.jms.JMSException but these classes are not identical. If javaee-api comes first in classpath, you will get the java.lang.ClassFormatError.

If you use maven, put javaee-api after activemq-all (or remove it). In general, remove unecessary dependencies.
