Custom configuration not getting reflected in applicationcontext.xml - spring-amqp

Question

I am using custom configuration for my RabbitMQ connectivity. I'm connecting to multiple hosts.
<context:property-placeholder location="classpath:/test_setting.properties" ignore-unresolvable="true"/>
...
<rabbit:connection-factory id="testConnectionFactory"
addresses="${test.addresses}"
username="${test.username}"
password="${test.password}"
virtual-host="${test.virtualhost}"
connection-factory="rhb" />
<bean id="rhb" class="com.rabbitmq.client.ConnectionFactory">
<property name="requestedHeartbeat" value="${test.connection.heartbeat}" />
</bean>
My property file looks like: test_setting.properties
test.queue=testQueue
test.virtualhost=/global_api
test.addresses=host1:5672,
host2:5672
test.username=guest
test.password=guest
test.connection.heartbeat=60
test.consumer.concurrency=1
When i trigger my main class properties not getting replaced inside applicationcontext.xml in Spring. Thereby I am getting connection refused exception.
Please note if I hard code the connection details everything works fine.

Answer 1

ignore-unresolvable="true"
It looks like the file is not being found - change that to false to see the error.
Also, turning on DEBUG logging for org.springframework will provide a great deal of information about property resolution.
test.addresses=host1:5672,
host2:5672
Properties have to be on one line (you can terminate a line with \) for continuation.
test.addresses=host1:5672, \
host2:5672
