I just ran an external client against the message. Here's what I get .... Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null Message: JBossMessage[0]:NON-PERSISTENT TxtMessage: null This was from an external client. If I run this from inside of an MBean, it is fine. You should be able to get these running locally in an MBean as a workaround.
