You can define a queue by creating a *-service.xml file (say, newmessage-destination-service.xml), with the following content, and place it in the server/default/deploy directory. <server> | <mbean code="org.jboss.jms.server.destination.QueueService" | name="jbia.jms:service=Queue,name=NewMessage" | xmbean-dd="xmdesc/Topic-xmbean.xml"> | <depends optional-attribute-name="ServerPeer"> | jboss.messaging:service=ServerPeer | </depends> | <depends>jboss.messaging:service=PostOffice</depends> | <attribute name="SecurityConfig"> | <security> | <role name="vstore" write="true" /> | <role name="vcust" read="true" create="true" /> | </security> | </attribute> | </mbean> | </server> In addition, you will want to change you queue reference to: @Resource(mappedName="queue/NewMessage") | private Queue queue; That is the queue name based on the configuration file - note that the 'queue' prefix is assumed. I believe this prefix can be changed, but I would have to do some digging and testing to verify. Is is probably best to use the defaults.
