Description

In some cases, the data reported by the REST interface is inconsistent. The problem that we have detected is with queues but it may be present elsewhere.

In short, /broker/virtual-hosts/<vhost> reports a queue that cannot be accessed via /broker/virtual-hosts/<vhost>/queues/<name>. In the web console, we get broken links (404 errors).

This may be linked to auto deletion (auto_delete_after parameter) but this is not a transient error. After failing to get to the queue data, we still see the queue name listed at virtual host level. It's not a problem of browser caching as we see the same thing with wget.
