ActiveMQ failover for stomp over websocket

Question

Is there a workaround to implement an activemq failover for stomp over websocket?

The uri in my web browser is ws://localhost:61614/stomp which is working fine. But adding failover:(ws://localhost:61614/stomp) will not work.

Appreciate any guidance.

Regards,

Walter

The failover transport only works with ActiveMQ's openwire based protocol. For stomp you need to handle all exceptions and reconnect when something goes wrong.
