Which plugins are you trying to install? Which files have you placed in
the plugins directory? What does the startup log say? In particular,
there should be lines that look a bit like:

node           : rabbit at koba
app descriptor :
/home/matthew/rabbitmq-umbrella/rabbitmq-server/scripts/../ebin/rabbit.app
home dir       : /home/matthew
config file(s) : /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.config
cookie hash    : ccGTTVV6GNSUxPewIZAXjg==
log            : /tmp/rabbit at koba.log
sasl log       : /tmp/rabbit at koba-sasl.log
database dir   : /tmp/rabbitmq-rabbit-mnesia
erlang version : 5.8.3

though with different paths. What are those paths?
