I have deployed activemq-ra.rar in jboss deploy directory and so I am not sure why it is not working, i would really appreciate any pointers or suggestions to move forward.

Thanks.

Update I was able to get it up and running, i had very silly issue, folder name where my activemq-ra.rar was specified as activemq-ra.1.2.2.rar and so jboss was not able to recognize it while starting up the application.

It may very well be because you're using a pretty old version of JBoss (4.0.x) with a newer version of ActiveMQ (5.4.x). JBoss is now at version 7, and they've changed ALOT of things in the mean time (the micro container alone has been completly re written). Also, the article you're following is pretty old, as it reffers to JBoss 4.x and ActiveMQ 4.0.1. My recommandation is to either follow that article and use the exact version of each as mentioned there or to use the latest JBoss and Active MQ and try to update the instructions with more recent documentation, such as the things discussed in this thread: http://community.jboss.org/thread/172319
