That is odd indeed.

Please send the output of 'rabbitmqctl report'.

Also, run 'rabbitmqctl list_queues name pid', which will display 
something like

Listing queues ...
amq.gen-4QD6-qQk5qJYLJDA0uLlcA	<rabbit at i.2.377.0>
amq.gen-jwB5qlTRULXTW4WXEfgTJg	<rabbit at i.2.388.0>
...done.

pick one of the pids shown and plug it into

rabbitmqctl eval 'process_info(rabbit_misc:string_to_pid("<ThePid>")).'.

and send us the output of that.

Regards,

Matthias.
