[rabbitmq-discuss] Unable to cluster rabbit nodes

Mon Mar 18 21:39:13 GMT 2013

I see below error when I try to cluster rabbitmq.

C:\Program Files (x86)\RabbitMQ 
Server\rabbitmq_server-3.0.3\sbin>rabbitmqctl.bat join_cluster 
rabbit at WIN-GOVIND1
Clustering node 'rabbit at WIN-GOVIND2' with 'rabbit at WIN-GOVIND1' ...
Error: {cannot_discover_cluster,"The nodes provided are either offline or 
not running"}

a) Node GOVIND1 is up
b) Can ping each other machine with name
c) Can telnet to 5672 and 4369 (empd) ports from each box prior to running 
stop_app on GOVIND2.
d) Synced up erlang cookie

What else did I miss for this not to work?

I get GOVIND1 as node down. why?

C:\Program Files (x86)\RabbitMQ 
Server\rabbitmq_server-3.0.3\sbin>rabbitmqctl.bat -n 
rabbit at WIN-GOVIND1status
Status of node 'rabbit at WIN-GOVIND1' ...
Error: unable to connect to node 'rabbit at WIN-GOVIND1': nodedown

DIAGNOSTICS
===========

nodes in question: ['rabbit at WIN-GOVIND1']

hosts, their running nodes and ports:
- WIN-GOVIND1: [{rabbit,49283}]

current node details:
- node name: 'rabbitmqctl2221614 at WIN-GOVIND1'
- home dir: C:\Users\Administrator
- cookie hash: IgPbUHwN5LE8HjnJYwYTiA==

C:\Program Files (x86)\RabbitMQ Server\rabbitmq_server-3.0.3\sbin>

I didn't change default port (5672) but what is 49283 from above status?

I appreciate any help to cluster rabbit nodes.

Thanks,
Govind
