Spring Cloud - SQS - The specified queue does not exist for this wsdl version

Alain's answer is correct. This error indicates that the queue doesn't exist in the region us-west-2. One of the reasons could be that the AWS Java SDK uses us-east-1 as the default region. From AWS documentation http://docs.aws.amazon.com/java-sdk/latest/developer-guide/java-dg-region-selection.html

The AWS SDK for Java uses us-east-1 as the default region if you do not specify a region in your code. However, the AWS Management Console uses us-west-2 as its default. Therefore, when using the AWS Management Console in conjunction with your development, be sure to specify the same region in both your code and the console.

You can set the region or end point specifically in the client using setRegion() or setEndpoint() methods of AmazonSQSClientobject. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaSDK/latest/javadoc/com/amazonaws/services/sqs/AmazonSQS.html#setEndpoint-java.lang.String-

For a list of region and endpoints see http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#sqs_region


This error means that the specified queue orderQueue does not exist on region us-west-2. Just create it and it should work.

Btw, there's no need to add _@EnableSqs_ when using _@EnableAutoConfiguration_.
