How to refer to rabbitmq.config with RabbitMQ 3.7.12 and Erlang 21.2 ?

[badrira...@gmail.com]

Hi Team,

  Currently I am using the RabbitMQ 3.6.10 and  Erlang 19.3.6.4. In this Version, the RabbitMQ Server refers to rabbitmq.config file. 

  As I need to update to the latest version of RabbitMq and Erlang, I installed RabbitMQ 3.7.12 and  Erlang 21.2. But, in the latest version (3.7.12) RabbitMq Server is referring to advanced.config (server listens to default port : 15672).

  However,  I want it to refer rabbitmq.config file(where my custom config changes present ex: port). 

Request you to please help me with this.

Regards,

Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,

You can continue to use the same rabbitmq.config file. Have you tried that? Just save it in /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.config

Thanks,

Luke

Hi Luke,

  I have tried the below process :

1. Stop the RabbitMQ server.

2. Delete the default advanced.config file in the location ("c:/Users/ADMINI~1/AppData/Roaming/RabbitMQ/advanced.config") , I use Windows machine

3. Place the rabbitmq.config file in the same location 

 in this case Server is not starting up and throwing below error in erl_crash.dump file

     =erl_crash_dump:0.5

Hello,

In the future be sure to let us know you're using Windows. I tested the following process using Windows 8.1:

* Open the "RabbitMQ Command Prompt (sbin dir)" start menu item. In the console, run these commands:

.\rabbitmq-service.bat stop

.\rabbitmq-service.bat remove

* Then, in %AppData%\RabbitMQ, remove any files named rabbitmq.conf or advanced.config. Save your rabbitmq.config file in that location.

* Back in your console window, run these commands:

.\rabbitmq-service.bat install

.\rabbitmq-service.bat start

You can check the RabbitMQ log to ensure it's using the expected config file - a line similar to this will be logged:

 config file(s) : c:/Users/lbakken/AppData/Roaming/RabbitMQ/rabbitmq.config

Thanks,

Luke
