The root cause of the problem is probably that the erlang cookies of the
service account and the account running rabbitmqctl.bat are different.
As an alternative to running the service and rabbitmqctl.bat as the same
user, you could synchronise the cookies.
There are some instructions at
http://www.rabbitmq.com/install.html#running-windows-service .
Look for %WINDIR%\.erlang.cookie and %HOMEPATH%\.erlang.cookie .
