I tried restarting the rabbitmq service and it failed out with this message.
 (It had been running for some time without problem prior.)  I noticed that
erlang and rabbitmq were both moving along so I updated my ports but no joy.


--rc.con snippet----
# fire up RabbitMQ, la rasion d'etre
rabbitmq_enable="YES"
RABBITMQ_NODE_IP_ADDRESS="172.16.1.104"

#epmd for erlang network processes
epmd_enable="YES"


I don't comprehend the error message and where I should start looking.
Ideas?

Best,
-Jeff
