<FONT FACE="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:11pt'>Hi,<BR>
<BR>
I’m trying to setup a cluster of rabbit nodes with 2 ec2 instances:<BR>
<BR>
I installed rabbitmq with apt-get.<BR>
I use the same erlang cookie on both machine,<BR>
I setup the hostname of the instances to be rabbit1 and rabbit2.<BR>
I configured the clustering through configuration file /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq_cluster.config on both machine containing:<BR>
[rabbit@rabbit1, rabbit@rabbit2].<BR>
<BR>
The node starts fine on rabbit1 but I keep getting timeout when I try to start rabbitmqserver on rabbit2 :<BR>
Startup_log:<BR>
<BR>
Starting all nodes...<BR>
Starting node rabbit@rabbit2...<BR>
