[rabbitmq-discuss] Rabbit crashes upon startup.

Rabbitmq 2.7.1-1 and erlang R14B-04.1

We normally use CentOS 5.7 which has its shortcomings.  In order to try 
CentOS 6.2 I installed it into an Oracle(Sun) VirtualBox VM.  That all 
works fine.

Among the infrastructure that we need are postgres and memcached - they 
install and run fine.

For rabbit, stated by making an EPEL repo then installed both erlang and 
rabbitmq.

Try to start rabbitmq - service rabbitmq-server - and I get:


[blah at localhost init.d]# pwd
> /etc/init.d
> [blah at localhost init.d]# service rabbitmq-server start
> Starting rabbitmq-server: FAILED - check /var/log/rabbitmq/startup_{log, 
> _err}
> rabbitmq-server.
> [blah at localhost init.d]# cat /var/log/rabbitmq/startup_err

Epmd started up.  I think the next thing to start is beam.smp (looking at 
my CentOS 5.7 machine where this all works).

I've used rabbitmq for some time, but have never had to dig into it...

Tried rebooting - no.  Then uninstall and reinstall - no.

Any suggestions appreciated.
