I was able to just now repro this again. Because of some layers of scripting, it turns out it's not hanging up when running rabbitmq-server. Rather, it's hanging up when running "rabbitmqctl wait <pidfile>"<br>
<br>The output from rabbitmqctl when run on any node is:<br><br>Waiting for rabbit@play ...�� << Where 'play' is the node that's restarting>><br>pid is 21925 ...�������������������� << Where the PID value is different depending on which node it's run>><br>
<br><br>The last few lines of the event log for the 'play' node:<br><br><br>=INFO REPORT==== 22-Feb-2012::14:52:08 ===<br>Stopping Rabbit<br><br>=INFO REPORT==== 22-Feb-2012::14:52:08 ===<br>��� application: rabbitmq_management<br>

If I try this action on the node with the stats database, rabbitmqctl<br>
waits forever and I have to ctrl-c out. �If I then try "rabbitmqctl<br>
stop", it errors out, saying that the node is down.<br>

Hmm. Needless to say, this does not happen when I try it :(<br>
<br>
Does anything show up in the logs on that node at this point?<br>
<br>
