Apache ActiveMQ

This post talks about the simple steps to make Apache ActiveMQ up and running.

Firstly, the ActiveMQ has to be downloaded from apache site

After downloading it, Extract it to a folder. In my case it is C:\apache-activemq-5.15.12

To start MQ process, Execute C:\apache-activemq-5.15.12\bin\win64\activemq.bat batch file.

To access the web console, navigate http://localhost:8161/index.html

To get into the management console, click the ‘Manage ActiveMQ Broker’ link. It is protected link. Use username admin and password admin.

You will find the links to track the queues from here

Hence the ActiveMQ server is installed with default configuration.
