[rabbitmq-discuss] RabbitMQ Management console not working

[Simon MacMullen]

Ah, I think I see the problem. Setting RABBITMQ_SERVICENAME for your 
services sets RABBITMQ_BASE, which then controls the location of where 
the RabbitMQ service(s) will look for the enabled_plugins file.

But you are not setting this when invoking rabbitmq-plugins.bat, so it's 
writing the file to a different location. And sadly there's a bug in the 
rabbitmq-plugins.bat script which prevents it from looking at 
RABBITMQ_SERVICENAME.

I'll file a bug to get that fixed. But in the mean time you should be 
able to get the management plugin started by copying the enabled_plugins 
file from %APPDATA%\RabbitMQ\enabled_plugins to 
%APPDATA%\TermaniaDevRabbitMQ\enabled_plugins and 
%APPDATA%\TermaniaProdRabbitMQ\enabled_plugins.

Since you're using RabbitMQ 3.x you do not need to reinstall the 
service, just restart it.

Cheers, Simon
