See the instructions at these links

http://www.rabbitmq.com/install-windows-manual.html
http://www.rabbitmq.com/man/rabbitmq-service.man.html

for how to set RABBITMQ_CONSOLE_LOG and obtain the startup banner. This
will provide the cookie hash of the running broker. You can compare this
value with the error messages from rabbitmqctl.bat to confirm whether
the cookie values are indeed the same.
