[rabbitmq-discuss] Issues with rabbitmq and manual configured hostname

Thu Oct 8 13:06:16 BST 2009

Hi Rabbits,

I had tried rabbitmq-1.7.0 with the following
config:

[root at lnxv-3339:~]$ cat /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.conf
NODENAME=wico at localhost
RABBITMQ_MNESIA_BASE=/data/netapp/config/tmp/rabbitmq-DB/mnesia

localhost is listed in /etc/hosts

If I start rabbitmq, odd things are happen:

========================= >% ===========================

[root at lnxv-3339:~]$ Erlang has closed
/etc/init.d/rabbitmq-server start
Starting rabbitmq-server: Starting all nodes...
Starting node wico at localhost@lnxv-3339...

Error: cannot_get_pid

========================= >% ===========================

Again: cannot_get_pid, but the queue is running (we can
connect etc.). We need a "positive result" if rabbitmq
is started. For now we get an exit != 0 (cannot_get_pid).

With Version 1.7.0 rabbitmqctl status gives:

========================= >% ===========================

[root at lnxv-3339:~]$ rabbitmqctl -n wico at localhost status
Status of node wico at localhost ...
[{running_applications,[{rabbit,"RabbitMQ","1.7.0"},

                           {os_mon,"CPO  CXC 138 46","2.1.8"},
                           {sasl,"SASL  CXC 138 11","2.1.5.4"},
                           {stdlib,"ERTS  CXC 138 10","1.15.5"},
                           {kernel,"ERTS  CXC 138 10","2.12.5"}]},
    {nodes,[wico at localhost]},
    {running_nodes,[wico at localhost]}]
...done.

========================= >% ===========================

This seems to be ok now.

Again - I'm unable to stop rabbitmq correctly:

========================= >% ===========================

[root at lnxv-3339:~]$ /usr/sbin/rabbitmq-multi stop_all
Stopping all nodes...
Error: no_nodes_running

========================= >% ===========================

But there are nodes running as rabbitmqctl shows (and
we can connect to). ;)

Can someone give me a hint?
Sorry for going like a bull at a gate...

Greetings,
