Currently, upon launching rabbitmq-server, it gives me access denied,<br>
attempting to write files in most definitely wrong path like:<br>
mkdir: cannot create directory �/usr/local/sbin/../var�: Permission denied<br>
/usr/local/sbin/rabbitmq-<u></u>server: line 80:<br>
/usr/local/sbin/../var/lib/<u></u>rabbitmq/mnesia/rabbit@full-<u></u>of-stars.pid: No<br>
such file or directory<br>
/usr/local/sbin/rabbitmq-<u></u>server: line 85: erl: command not found<br>
I see two errors here - how do i fix the first one?<br>

The generic unix distribution is designed to run directly from the unpacked tarball. It determines where to put databases and log files relative to the launch scripts.<br>
<br>
If you want to relocate those things, see <a href="http://www.rabbitmq.com/relocate.html" target="_blank">http://www.rabbitmq.com/<u></u>relocate.html</a> and <a href="http://www.rabbitmq.com/man/rabbitmq-env.conf.5.man.html" target="_blank">http://www.rabbitmq.com/man/<u></u>rabbitmq-env.conf.5.man.html</a><br>
<br>
I would not suggest you start by unpacking bits of the tarball and moving them around though, you're likely to spend quite a while fixing file-not-found errors.<div class="im"><br>

I assume the<br>
solution to second one is to install an Erlang compiler/interpreter?<br>
