             Summary: The deletion of autodelete queue requires ACL rights for deleting the queue
                 Key: QPID-4520
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-4520
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java Broker
    Affects Versions: 0.21
         Environment: Java broker (trunk) / Java 1.6 / RHEL 6.3
            Reporter: JAkub Scholz
            Priority: Minor


When a user creates an autodelete queue, it should be deleted when the last user disconnects from the queue. This seems to work fine in general. But in some specific situations, the autodelete queue isn't deleted. As an example, following scenario causes problems:

1) Enable ACL
2) Add user account the right to create the queue as autodelete queue in ACL file. Do not give the user the right to delete the queue.
3) Connect with the user and create the queue
4) Disconnect the user
5) The broker attempts to delete the queue, but fails because the user doesn't have the ACL rights to delete the queue
6) The queue remains in the system

This scenario is a bit artificial, because it can be seen as mis-configuration (i.e. giving the possibility to create the queue and not to delete the queue). But I can imagine a situation when one user creates the queue as autodelete and other users connect to this queue to read from it. The other users might not be supposed to delete the queue under normal circumstances, the queeu should just get deleted after the last user disconnects.

*In my opinion, the autodeletion should be preferred against the ACL rights.*
