See http://www.rabbitmq.com/configure.html#verify-configuration

When rabbit starts up it tells you what config file it is using, e.g.

+---+   +---+
|   |   |   |
|   |   |   |
|   |   |   |
|   +---+   +-------+
|                   |
| RabbitMQ  +---+   |
|           |   |   |
| v%%VSN%%  +---+   |
|                   |

Note the "config files" line above - in your case that should contain 
the filename of the config file.
