             Summary: Java Broker allows frame-size to be negotiated to zero then later fails during message delivery with obscure IllegalArgumentException
                 Key: QPID-4429
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-4429
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java Broker, Python Client
    Affects Versions: 0.19
            Reporter: Keith Wall
            Priority: Minor


The Java Broker permits a client to negotiate (connection.tune, connection.tune-ok) the AMQP frame-size to zero, only to fail later (during message delivery) with the following obscure exception:

It is easy for a user of the Python client to fall foul of this problem as it's API current requires that the user remembers to pass all tune-parameters (rather than simply those the user wishes to change).  This in itself is probably a defect.

However, regardless of any client shortcoming, the underlying problem here is the Java Broker. The AMQP spec (0-8..0.10) requires that the Broker should reject an attempt to reduce the frame-size below 4096.

bq. _0-8..0-9-1_ Until the frame-max has been negotiated, both peers MUST accept frames of up to frame-min-size octets large, and the minimum negotiated value for frame-max is also frame-min-size (frame-min-size=4096) [

bq. _0-10_ Until the max-frame-size has been negotiated, both peers MUST accept frames of up to MIN-MAX-FRAME-SIZE octets large, and the minimum negotiated value for max-frame-size is also MIN-MAX-FRAME-SIZE. (MIN-MAX-FRAME-SIZE=4096)
