[rabbitmq-discuss] RabbitMQ 3.2.1 fails to start with management plugin enabled

Fri Nov 15 17:52:13 GMT 2013

Hello,

I'm encountering an issue when attempting to use the rabbitmq_management plug-in with 3.2.1.  When enabled, RabbitMQ won't start.  When disabled RabbitMQ will start.

Using Debian Wheezy (7.2) and Erlang R15b, I recently upgraded RabbitMQ from 3.1.0 to 3.2.1 and RabbitMQ failed to start.  In troubleshooting the problem, I can perform 
a fresh installation of rabbitmq-server (ie, apt-get purge rabbitmq-server ; apt-get install rabbitmq-server) and RabbitMQ will start as expected.

However, if I attempt to enable the rabbitmq_management plug-in (ex:, rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management) and restart RabbitMQ, it will fail to start with the following error messages:

-- startup.log
