[rabbitmq-discuss] rabbitmq-server ignoring /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf

[Raymond Barlow]

Hi,

After a day of pain, I finally managed to get rabbitmq installed, via 
homebrew, on my mac (lion).

Now, I'm having trouble with starting the server. It hangs (I guess trying 
to resolve the hostname). If I ctrl-c during the hang, the broker seems to 
start anyway.

So, I thought I'd add NODENAME=localhost to /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf 
(as suggested in other posts).
But, even after I have created this file, and put the above in it, 
rabbitmq-server still fails connect (just hangs). 

If I ctrl-c, the broker still starts, and it shows that it hasn't picked up 
the config file (I think):

Any suggestions?
