[rabbitmq-discuss] Messages ready and not delivered

Hi Andrea,
Can you describe how to you are consuming the messages - are you using
synchronous (basic.get) or asynchronous (basic.consume) delivery?

Are you sure the queue contains messages? What does "rabbitmqctl
list_queues name messages_ready messages_unacknowledged consumers" return?

Hi Andrea,
And the last "consumers" column? How many consumers does the broker
think are subscribed? If the client receives messages asynchronously
then the number should be 1 or greater.

Something else to check is whether the consumer has asserted channel
flow. That will prevent the broker from delivering messages on the
channel. You can confirm this with
"rabbitmqctl list_channels client_flow_blocked"

Ok I verified that the consumers number is equal to 0 so I guess that the problem is not
rabbitmq but with our consumers that for some reasons lose the connection
and don't manage properly the reconnection with the server.
Thanks for your help
