What environment variables are you setting up in your script? Here's the list that I think you'll need to override:
RABBITMQ_LOG_BASE,
RABBITMQ_CONFIG_FILE,
RABBITMQ_PLUGINS_EXPAND_DIR
RABBITMQ_ENABLED_PLUGINS_FILE,
RABBITMQ_NODE_IP_ADDRESS,
RABBITMQ_ALLOW_INPUT,
RABBITMQ_NODENAME,
RABBITMQ_MNESIA_DIR,
RABBITMQ_PID_FILE,
RABBITMQ_NODE_PORT
And potentially some others, but that's a good start. Anyway the port is specified in RABBITMQ_NODE_PORT (note that there's another variable for SSL listeners).

We'd need to see that startup logs and output of `rabbitmqctl -n <nodename> status` for the nodes to actually diagnose a problem.
