title: ActiveMQ 5.1.1 WebSphere 8.5.5 Activation Spec configuration?
body: <p>Thanks to Maarten I was able to get basic ActiveMQ JMS topics and connection factories working in WAS.  He has a nice write up in his reply to this topic:  <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29099231/activemq-5-11-with-websphere-application-server-8-5">ActiveMQ 5.11 with WebSphere Application Server 8.5</a></p>
  
  <p>But I cannot find a way to define any ActiveMQ JMS Activation Specs in the WAS admin console.  And of course I need those in order to trigger my MDBs.  ActiveMQ simply doesn't show up as a JMS provider when creating a new AS.</p>
  
  <p>How do I configure Activation Specs in WAS using ActiveMQ as the provider?  Am I missing a jar file?</p>
  
  <p>activemq-client-5.11.0.jar
  hawtbuf-1.11.jar
  slf4j-api-1.7.10.jar</p>
