We are running WildFly 26 in a cluster and observe the automatic retry of JMS message when exception is thrown. All is working as expected where the message retries multiple times with a small delay between attempts.
However, we would like to limit the # retries instead of using the default which appears to be 10. The only place I have seen that allows you to set max-retries is in the JMS Bridge. The discussion and examples for JMS Bridge is for connecting to an external JMS subsystem. How do I configure WildFly to limit the number of retries ?
You can set the max-delivery-attempts in an address-setting with an appropriate name value, e.g.:
<address-setting name="jms.queue.MyQueue" max-delivery-attempts="10"/>
If you want this to apply to all addresses then use name="#". The default standalone-full.xml already has such an address-setting which you can modify.
