[rabbitmq-discuss] Can't connect on Windows

[Tim Sawyer]

I have a Flex application with a Java backend.  The Java backend is 
putting messages onto a RabbitMQ exchange and the Flex client is picking 
them up using http://github.com/0x6e6562/as3-amqp.  This works as 
expected when the RabbitMQ server is running on Fedora.  When I run up 
RabbitMQ 1.7.2 locally on windows and try and run the entire application 
stack on windows, (AMQP Server = localhost) the app tells me it can’t 
connect.

I’m running 
http://github.com/dansimpson/amqp-js/tree/master/policy-server/ on both 
the fedora box and the windows box, and I can see they are both being 
queried at the correct time for the crossdomain file.  The cross domain 
file is the default from that repository, I haven’t changed it.

However, the error I’m getting is:

Error #2044: Unhandled connectionError:. text=Connection failed

rabbitmqctl status on Fedora gives:

Status of node rabbit at nightjar ...
[{running_applications,[{rabbit,"RabbitMQ","1.7.2"},
                         {mnesia,"MNESIA  CXC 138 12","4.4.7"},
                         {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,[rabbit at nightjar]},
  {running_nodes,[rabbit at nightjar]}]
...done.

The same on windows gives:

Status of node rabbit at auk ...
[{running_applications,[{rabbit,"RabbitMQ","1.7.2"},
                         {mnesia,"MNESIA  CXC 138 12","4.4.12"},
                         {os_mon,"CPO  CXC 138 46","2.2.4"},
                         {sasl,"SASL  CXC 138 11","2.1.8"},
                         {stdlib,"ERTS  CXC 138 10","1.16.4"},
                         {kernel,"ERTS  CXC 138 10","2.13.4"}]},
  {nodes,[rabbit at auk]},
  {running_nodes,[rabbit at auk]}]

Rabbit.log contains

=INFO REPORT==== 11-Aug-2010::15:55:13 ===

where that is my local ip address

Can someone give me an inkling of where to start looking for a solution?

Cheers,

Tim.
