[jboss-user] [Messaging, JMS & JBossMQ] - Dead letter queues

[tobinibot]

I am using JBoss 4.0.5 with ActiveMQ 4.1.0 as my JMS provider.  I have an MDB set up, reading from an ActiveMQ queue, and am using normal container managed transactions (with XA).  When the transaction fails, the message is correctly put back on the queue.  From the logs, I can tell that my message is pulled off the queue 5 times.  After that, it is gone.

>From what I understand, JBoss is configured to try a preset number of times (apparently 5), and then move the message to a dead letter queue (DLQ).  However, I cannot find the message anywhere.  I have not configured anything around DLQ's.  By default, does JBoss put the message in one of it's DLQ's, or does it try to put it to the JMS provider's DLQ (in this case ActiveMQ)?  I haven't been able to find it in either one.
