[rabbitmq-discuss] RabbitMQ on OSX - Having Problems...

Sat May 16 18:47:51 BST 2009

Ok, so I completely scrapped this and started again, this time with
macports to ensure it was nothing stupid i was doing causing the
problem. So, I installed via macports, and following the instructions:

sudo -H -u rabbitmq rabbitmq-server

Great I thought! It works out of the box... however, if i open another
terminal, the rabbitmqctl doesnt find the running server still.

Any ideas? This is really starting to do my head in!

Cheers, Tim
