ActiveMQ No IConnectionFactory implementation found for connection

Question

I have installed ActiveMQ 5.13.0 Release on the server and trying to access the broker with C# client. I created a console application and installed Apache.NMS.ActiveMQ version 1.7.1 nuget package. When I try to access the broker:

Line 1 Uri uri = new Uri("tcp://192.168.110.136:61616"); 
Line 2 NMSConnectionFactory NMSFactory = new NMSConnectionFactory(uri); 

On the second line it throws No IConnectionFactory implementation found for connection URI: tcp://192.168.110.136:61616/ exception.

Project's .NET Framework version is 3.5 and I also tried with .NET 4.0 and 4.5 as well. But the result is same, throws the same exception.

ActiveMQ is running on the server and I am able to access to the server's 61616 port with telnet and the management UI. I checked other similar posts but did not help to fix the issue. Any help is welcome.

Thanks.

First, be sure that your applications references both the Apache.NMS.dll and the Apache.NMS.ActiveMQ.dll assemblies in order to have access to all the implementation bits.

Then try using a URI that references the provider implementation you are trying to use via the generic NMSConnectionFactory:

Uri uri = new Uri("activemq:tcp://192.168.110.136:61616"); 

Optionally you can use the ActiveMQ IConnectionFactory implementation directly:

IConnectionFactory factory = new Apache.NMS.ActiveMQ.ConnectionFactory(uri);
