[rabbitmq-discuss] Configure RabbitMQ 3.2.2. with SSL on windows7

Mon Jan 13 12:17:43 GMT 2014

Please keep rabbitmq-discuss on CC, that way other people can benefit 
from the answer to your question.

As I said, you don't need to install OpenSSL to make it available to Erlang.

It appears that your problem is really in generating certificates. Note 
that you don't have to generate certificates using OpenSSL if you find 
it hard to use, the examples given at http://www.rabbitmq.com/ssl.html 
are... examples.

It looks like you have a problem with your PATH - you will need to 
update it to include the directory containing the openssl binaries.

Cheers, Simon
