To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/779753#779753 -------------------------------------------------------------- I know this is an old thread but i just came across the same issue. I resolved it by making my DLQ NOT a gateway. So i have a queue defined called retrieve_search_certificate_esb. it has a DLQ configured as such: <attribute name="DLQ">jboss.esb.destination:service=Queue,name=retrieve_search_certificate_dlq</attribute> which is in turn mapped to a jms-bus with a busId of retrSearchCertDlqChannel that jms-bus is configured by my service to be listened to by my service with <jms-listener name="ESB-Channel" busidref="retrSearchCertDlqChannel" is-gateway="false"/> the part that gave me access to my org.jboss.soa.esb.message.Message is: is-gateway="false" When is-gateway was true, the ESB Message was serialized to a String in the same way as the original post in this thread. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/779753#779753] Start a new discussion in JBoss Messaging at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
