[rabbitmq-discuss] can't start rabbitmq-server

[Tim Watson]

You don't, by any chance, have rabbit (or erlang) set up to use ipv6 do 
you? We have seen these error messages before (see 
http://grokbase.com/t/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-discuss/1297vvbk84/rabbitmq-wont-start-after-upgrading-ubuntu-10-04-to-12-04) 
and this is an Erlang issue rather than a rabbit specific one. Whilst I 
will do some investigation to see if I can figure out why your epmd 
daemon thinks that the rabbit (erlang) node is connecting from a 
non-local address - and BTW I suspect some kernel routing to be at fault 
here, much as Emile suggested in the referenced thread - and see if we 
can figure out what's going on.

It would probably be quite productive if you reposted this issue to the 
erlang-questions mailing list as well, where the OTP team may have some 
additional insights to share.

Cheers,
Tim
