Spring Boot WebSocket with embedded ActiveMQ Broke

I tried to change an web application from simple broker to an embedded ActiveMq Broker with stomp using Spring boot 1.5.4 but always getting an error on start up

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No handlers

I reduced the failure with an simple example

Application Class

package com.example.websocket;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication
public class WebsocketApplication {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(WebsocketApplication.class, args);
    }
}

WebSocketConfig Class

package com.example.websocket;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.jms.annotation.EnableJms;
import org.springframework.messaging.simp.config.MessageBrokerRegistry;
import org.springframework.web.socket.config.annotation.EnableWebSocket;
import org.springframework.web.socket.config.annotation.EnableWebSocketMessageBroker;
import org.springframework.web.socket.config.annotation.StompEndpointRegistry;
import org.springframework.web.socket.config.annotation.WebSocketMessageBrokerConfigurationSupport;

@Configuration
@EnableWebSocket
@EnableWebSocketMessageBroker
@EnableJms
public class WebSocketConfig extends WebSocketMessageBrokerConfigurationSupport {

    @Value("${spring.activemq.user}")
    private String mqUser;
    @Value("${spring.activemq.password}")
    private String mqPasword;

    @Override
    public void configureMessageBroker(final MessageBrokerRegistry config) {
        config.enableStompBrokerRelay("/topic") //
        .setRelayHost("localhost") //
        .setRelayPort(61613) //
        .setClientLogin(mqUser) //
        .setClientPasscode(mqPasword) //
        ;
        config.setApplicationDestinationPrefixes("/app");
    }

    @Override
    public void registerStompEndpoints(final StompEndpointRegistry registry) {
        registry.addEndpoint("/websocket").withSockJS();
    }

}

application.yml

spring:
  activemq:
    broker-url: stomp://localhost:61613
    user: user
    password: pass

Someone knows my mistake?

I found the solution. My problem was the EnableWebSocketMessageBroker Annotation and missing deployment of ActiveMQ Broker

Remove the application.yml and change WebSocketConfig class to

package com.example.websocket;

import org.apache.activemq.broker.BrokerService;
import org.apache.activemq.broker.jmx.ManagementContext;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.messaging.simp.config.MessageBrokerRegistry;
import org.springframework.web.socket.config.annotation.EnableWebSocket;
import org.springframework.web.socket.config.annotation.StompEndpointRegistry;
import org.springframework.web.socket.config.annotation.WebSocketMessageBrokerConfigurationSupport;

@Configuration
@EnableWebSocket
public class WebSocketConfig extends WebSocketMessageBrokerConfigurationSupport {


    @Override
    public void configureMessageBroker(final MessageBrokerRegistry config) {
        config.enableStompBrokerRelay("/topic") //
        .setRelayHost("localhost") //
        .setRelayPort(61613);
        config.setApplicationDestinationPrefixes("/app");
    }

    @Override
    public void registerStompEndpoints(final StompEndpointRegistry registry) {
        registry.addEndpoint("/websocket").withSockJS();
    }

    @Bean(initMethod = "start", destroyMethod = "stop")
    public BrokerService broker() throws Exception {
        final BrokerService broker = new BrokerService();
        broker.addConnector("stomp://localhost:61613");

        broker.setPersistent(false);
        final ManagementContext managementContext = new ManagementContext();
        managementContext.setCreateConnector(true);
        broker.setManagementContext(managementContext);

        return broker;
    }
}

works for me.
