How to Install ActiveMQ on Fedora Server Latest

ActiveMQ is an open-source message broker written in Java, which provides messaging service-oriented capabilities based on JMS (Java Message Service) standard. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing ActiveMQ on Fedora Server Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we start, you need to make sure that you have the following prerequisites:

Step 1: Update and Upgrade your Fedora Server

First, we need to update the package database and upgrade the installed packages on your Fedora server. Run the following command to do that:

sudo dnf update

Step 2: Install Java Development Kit (JDK)

ActiveMQ requires Java Development Kit (JDK) 1.8 or above to be installed on your system. If you have not yet installed Java Development Kit (JDK), run the following command to install it:

sudo dnf install java-devel

Step 3: Download and extract ActiveMQ

Now, it’s time to download the ActiveMQ package from the official website. Run the following command to go to the official website:

https://activemq.apache.org/

You can either download the latest stable version of ActiveMQ or choose a previous version depending on your requirements.

After you have downloaded the package, extract it to the /opt directory using the following command:

sudo tar xzvf apache-activemq-x.x.x-bin.tar.gz -C /opt/

Step 4: Start ActiveMQ

To start the ActiveMQ instance, run the following command:

sudo /opt/apache-activemq-x.x.x/bin/activemq start

Step 5: Verify ActiveMQ

To verify that ActiveMQ is running, visit the ActiveMQ web interface at http://localhost:8161/ using your web browser.

Once you are in the web interface, you can monitor ActiveMQ queues, topics, messages, and more.

Step 6: Stop ActiveMQ

If you ever need to stop ActiveMQ, you can do so by running the following command:

sudo /opt/apache-activemq-x.x.x/bin/activemq stop
