In my enterprise application, I have embedded broker and ActiveMQ starts when the application starts. The application is deployed in tomcat, now how can i view ActiveMQ web console.

The application is running on a remote unix server XXXX port..., I tried various things as suggested on Apache site but Web Console is not starting(localhost:8161/admin). I am also not able to find jetty.xml in my application.

Can anybody tell me how can i view the web console of the application. If u need any other info regarding the server then please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

The old web console from Apache ActiveMQ is not very flexible and is hard to get deployed outside Apache Karaf or in the standalone ActiveMQ mode.

You would need to deploy it as a WAR in Tomcat, and use use the port number that Tomcat uses, eg typically 8080. And the name of the WAR is the context-path typically. So basically deploy the old web console as any other WAR app in Tomcat, and see how far you can get.

An alternative console is hawtio, which is a modern HTML5 app that is much more flexible, and it has an ActiveMQ plugin to manage it - as well many other plugins.
