Why does my qpid client stop consuming messages from a slow producer?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Having a slow producer and a consumer periodically running Receiver::fetch() method (using a timeout less than infinity)
  • the consumer gets just the first N messages where N is the size of prefetch / capacity, and then no new messages are received - despite there being new messages on the broker

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise MRG Messaging 2.3
