[rabbitmq-discuss] RabbitMQ crashed in ets:insert_new - looks like a genuine bug...

Hi Eugene,

Which version of Rabbit is this and which version of Erlang, and on what
platform?

What that means is that there's been an attempt to insert into a non
existant table. This normally suggests the msg_store has exited for
other reasons and there are still queues trying to write to the
msg_store's tables. This could indicate other bugs, but this itself is
unlikely to be the root cause.
