<h1>Web Console</h1>
</div>
</div>
<div class="container" >
<div class="row" style="margin-top: 30px">
<div class="col-12 classic">
<p><a href="tools">Tools</a> &gt; <a href="web-console">Web Console</a></p>
<p>The ActiveMQ Classic Web Console is a web based administration tool for working with ActiveMQ Classic. When used with the <a href="jmx">JMX</a> support it can be an invaluable tool for working with ActiveMQ Classic</p>
<h3 id="running-the-web-console-on-activemq-classic-50-or-later">Running the Web Console on ActiveMQ Classic 5.0 or later</h3>
<p>We have integrated the Web Console into the binary distribution. So <a href="download">Download</a> a binary distribution then follow the instructions for <a href="run-broker">Version 5 Run Broker</a>. Then you can point your web browser at the URL</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://localhost:8161/admin">http://localhost:8161/admin</a></li>
</ul>
<p>And hey presto, you should now have the Web Console running.</p>
<p>In the event that you are running a standalone broker and the Web Console is not reachable, check that the following lines are included in your ActiveMQ Classic config xml:</p>
<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>&lt;bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer"&gt;
&lt;property name="locations"&gt;
&lt;value&gt;file:${activemq.base}/conf/credentials.properties&lt;/value&gt;
&lt;/property&gt;
&lt;/bean&gt;
&lt;!-- your broker config goes here --&gt;
&lt;import resource="${activemq.base}/conf/jetty.xml" /&gt;
</code></pre></div></div>
<p>The import will start up an embedded Jetty container. To verify that the config is working, the following should appear in your ActiveMQ Classic console/logs on next startup:</p>
<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>INFO | jetty-7.1.6.v20100715
INFO | ActiveMQ WebConsole initialized.
</code></pre></div></div>
<h3 id="changing-the-port">Changing the port</h3>
<p>If you want to change the port number of the web console, see the configuration files in the conf directory.</p>
<h3 id="securing-web-console">Securing Web Console</h3>
<p>Starting with ActiveMQ Classic 5.4.0, Web Console comes pre-configured with basic access authentication setup. It’s turned off by default, so you need to turn it on explicitly, but it’s really simple. Go to the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">${ACTIVEMQ_HOME}/conf/jetty.xml</code> and find the following line</p>
<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>&lt;property name="authenticate" value="false" /&gt;
</code></pre></div></div>
<p>and change it to</p>
<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>&lt;property name="authenticate" value="true" /&gt;
</code></pre></div></div>
<p>That’s it. From that point on, web server will look at <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">${ACTIVEMQ_HOME}/conf/jetty-realm.properties</code> file trying to match provided credentials with those listed in the file. By default, you can access the web console with <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">admin/admin</code> credentials. That can be changed (and more users can be added) in the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">jetty-realm.properties</code> file.</p>
<p>You may also wish to enable <strong>ssl connector</strong> to further secure access to the web console and other web resources of the broker. To do that, go to the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">${ACTIVEMQ_HOME}/conf/jetty.xml</code> and make sure you have the secure connector enabled. In versions 5.7 and newer just uncomment a predefined config. In any case make sure your connectors settings looks similar to this.</p>
<div class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge"><div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight"><code>&lt;property name="connectors"&gt;
&lt;list&gt;
&lt;bean id="Connector" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.nio.SelectChannelConnector"&gt;
&lt;property name="port" value="8161" /&gt;
&lt;/bean&gt;
&lt;bean id="SecureConnector" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.ssl.SslSelectChannelConnector"&gt;
&lt;property name="port" value="8162" /&gt;
&lt;property name="keystore" value="file:${activemq.conf}/broker.ks" /&gt;
&lt;property name="password" value="password" /&gt;
&lt;/bean&gt;
&lt;/list&gt;
&lt;/property&gt;
</code></pre></div></div>
<p>Standard connector is left enabled in this example, but you can remove it in your configuration if you wish.</p>
<p>Note that these changes will affect the whole web server, so if you’re using <a href="rest">REST</a> API or blob fileserver be sure to provide appropriate credentials.</p>
<p>If you’re interested in securing 5.3.1 (and 5.3.2) Web consoles, take a look at <a href="http://www.nighttale.net/activemq/securing-activemq-531-console.html">this article</a>. For older versions, please refer to <a href="http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/unix-sysadmin/securing-activemq-web-console-27727">this article</a></p>
<h3 id="using-the-web-console">Using the Web Console</h3>
<p>The web console is depicted in the following image:</p>
<p><img src="assets/img/web_console.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>To get started, go to the <a href="http://localhost:8080/activemq-web-console/send.jsp">Send</a> page and send a message to a queue (you can send multiple if you like, see the message count field).</p>
<p>Now that you have sent messages to a queue you should be able to <a href="http://localhost:8080/activemq-web-console/browse.jsp">Browse</a> then and view the queue as an RSS or Atom feed.</p>
<p>The Web Console has many features relative to it’s tabs as shown in the following table.</p>
