[rabbitmq-discuss] Unable to start Rabbit Server or Service

[Paul Winters]

Emile,
Thanks so much, here are the answers to your questions.

Are you running the broker as an application or a service? Broker for now.
Service later.  Neither work.

What is the console output?  I modified the batch file to output some
variables.  I tried to set the NODE_IP_ADDRESS and received the same error.

Activating RabbitMQ plugins ...

Does %APPDATA%\RabbitMQ not contain anything at all? It contains the DB and
logs directory and some files.
In the "...mnesia\plugins-scratch\" folder there is a rabbit.boot,
rabbit.rel, rabbit.script.  In the logs directory there are logs, but they
are empty.

Do you get the same error when you use the new windows installer? Yes.

The installation process works on XP, Vista and Windows 2003.  The only
difference I have found on this box is the multiple network cards.

Thanks in advance,
Paul
