[rabbitmq-discuss] join_cluster error: The nodes provided are either offline or not running

[Marco, Amy]

Hi,

I am receiving the following error upon trying to cluster two rabbitmq nodes.

dev-rmq03:pts/0{amy}/etc/rabbitmq>sudo rabbitmqctl join_cluster rabbit at dev-rmq02
Clustering node 'rabbit at dev-rmq03' with 'rabbit at dev-rmq02' ...
Error: {cannot_discover_cluster,"The nodes provided are either offline or not running"

I have opened ports :
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 4369 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 5672 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 5673 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 15672 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 55672 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 15673 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 15674 -j ACCEPT
(ps can you also tell me which ports I actually need? A developer keeps requesting additional ports for me to try but it makes me uncomfortable opening so many)

On both nodes. I can ping each hostname from each other and telnet to port 5672 to each.

I have also verified that the hash value and .erlang.cookie in $RABBIT_HOME is the same and have perms rabbitmq:rabbitmq 0400 each.

Anything else you guys can think of for me to try to resolve this issue?

Thank you so much!
