Red Hat AMQ 7.1 - ActiveMQSecurityException throws during creation of a MessageConsumer

Question

I'm configuring an AMQ broker for my Java application. Users and roles are defined in their respective configuration properties files. These users have specific permissions depending on the address they are trying to use.

All of this is configured in the broker.xml. The broker uses 3 addresses: genericTopic, news.europe.europeTopic, news.us.usTopic. For the genericTopic address, all users have all the permissions.

Nevertheless, I'm getting this exception:

 An exception occured while executing the Java class. AMQ119213: User: bill does not have permission='CREATE_NON_DURABLE_QUEUE' for queue 576bc5ef-3373-409b-b45d-0b382107f915 on address genericTopic 

The broker.xml file contains:

artemis-roles.properties

user=bill,andrew,frank,sam
europe-user=andrew
news-user=frank,sam
us-user=frank

In Java, the user bill can authenticate with supplied password, I can create producers for genericTopic with user bill, but not a MessageConsumer.

This is the line of Java code that causes the exception:

MessageConsumer consumer = session.createConsumer(topic);

Here are some additonal logs in the AMQ broker:

2018-06-25 16:47:26,264 WARN  [org.apache.activemq.artemis.core.server] AMQ222107: Cleared up resources for session 590f0d6e-78c1-11e8-a8e1-e82aea578992
2018-06-25 16:48:44,412 WARN  [org.apache.activemq.artemis.core.server] AMQ222061: Client connection failed, clearing up resources for session 87928e3c-78c1-11e8-bcaa-e82aea578992

UPDATE: I solved some part of the problem. All my passwords were incorrect. Now there are no excepcionts but the message consumer blocks and waits forever for a message that exists (checked that on the web console) but for some reason It cannot receive. Also, I'm still getting the same warnings about client connection failed. More specifically, the application stops here:

TextMessage receivedMsg = (TextMessage) consumer.receive();
