[rabbitmq-discuss] Problem with Installing RabbitMQ Server 2.5.1

[Gavin M. Roy]

I'd be less included to run as rabbitmq root using sudo than change the
permissions on the requisite /var/lib/rabbitmq and /var/log/rabbitmq
directories.

sudo mkdir /var/lib/rabbitmq
sudo mkdir /var/log/rabbimq
sudo chgrp staff /var/log/rabbitmq
sudo chmod g+w /var/log/rabbitmq
sudo chgrp staff /var/lib/rabbitmq
sudo chmod g+w /var/lib/rabbitmq

Cheers,

Gavin
