[rabbitmq-discuss] Relocate Rabbit log files on Windows 2008R2

Wed Jul 30 09:05:45 BST 2014

This is a wild guess, but try reinstalling RabbitMQ server.
I haven't changed log file location, but I had issues with config file 
location on windows 2012, where RabbitMQ was reporting it couldn't find the 
file even though the file was there and was accessible. Also changing 
config file location in env. variable didn't help. But reinstalling 
RabbitMQ service worked.

Cheers,

Mariusz
