Flooding of 'Failed to check/redeclare auto-delete queue(s)' error messages

[oosterholt]

In what version(s) of Spring AMQP are you seeing this issue?
2.2.20 up to latest (probably earlier as well).

Describe the bug
When RabbitMQ service restarts, our log is flooded with error messages when simply trying to recreate queues.
Once RabbitMQ is started again, the queues get re-created correctly and the logging stops.

ERROR 2022-07-27 08:33:36 (org.springframework.amqp.rabbit.listener.SimpleMessageListenerContainer) Failed to check/redeclare auto-delete queue(s).

To Reproduce
Either have @Bean declared queues or queues declared via RabbitAdmin.
Start application
Restart RabbitMQ service

Expected behavior
Do not log error messages when spring AMQP simply is retrying (using configured BackOff polici) to restore declared queues.
Or at least change the log level to info or debug.
When to queues cannot be restored (after number of tries or timeout) an error message is needed.

We can remove the stack trace, but I believe that the logs must remain, perhaps at WARN level which would allow you to suppress them.

Please note that 2.2.x is no longer supported as OSS https://spring.io/projects/spring-amqp#support

Thanks for the quick reply.
WARN level would indeed help.
